If AI is so great, transformative and cost saving, where the hell is my 32 for 40hr pay work week?

Holy shit, MGM Resorts doesn't have client isolation enabled on their public wifi... What the absolute shit, guess they've done nothing after their crazy breach a few years ago...

Also, how do you put your really hacky home automation into a repo to make it show you know what you're doing?
When most of your code samples are for sex toys, how do you share those with a potential employer, who is not at all related to that industry.

Dimensional aluminum extrusion is just industrial grade lego.

Why did no one inform me of this earlier in my life... There's so many problems I could have solved!

Client-side Javascript is pretty much always the reason why everything is slow. It gets worse when ad networks get involved. The features of JS are great, but it's always slow.

I say we bring back simple HTML from the early 2000's!
Ah ha! I've deployed Nextcloud on my network to try to self-host things, but on top of having lots of issues with shared calendars (not NC's fault, cross-service calendar sharing is a PITA), I always found it SLOW. And this explains why

Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
No amount of tuning the backend service performance helped, and then I learned why. Oh no. Oh no no no no.

Looks like I may be going to Re:Invent... As much as I'm trying to avoid travel to the US, I've wanted to go to Re:Invent for many years, and I think I'd be crazy to turn it down.

This stuff is so cool. When I worked at BlackBerry we used to be able to watch big events in the relay and BBM traffic. New Years across timezones was really cool, and the Olympics was also something wild!
This is a fun chart!

The green is the main bsky load balancer traffic throughput from Saturday night, and the purple is how much traffic there was 7 days before (the previous Saturday)

The spike is due to the world series - pretty incredible! ⚾

Bad deploy, broke dev. Blamed it on Azure even though we run on AWS.

The internet is just a series of tubes man...

UPS fucking sucks. I'm fairly confident they lost my new phone and watch, and neither UPS or apple are willing to do anything yet, telling me to "just wait a few more days". It was out for delivery, and now it's vanished with the tracking not updating for 3 days saying "tomorrow".

Great service...

I think my new phone is lost in the UPS aether... Was supposed to be delivered 2 days ago and the tracking has stopped... UPS doesn't know where it is, and all their agents say "system says delivery today".

392hrs, 14 minutes. Millions of parts, so many fuck ups, a lot of really kick ass looking factories.

Phase 5 of project Assembly Complete. I've beaten Satisfactory.

In a long history of gaming, the first game I've actually ever beaten.

Time to start again!

Older picture, but I could go for some of this again. Chest-to-wrist restraints, muzzled, electro plug and strung up. This was a lot of fun, but ran into some issues (not related to the bondage) that ended up ending the scene early.

Not normal kinky thoughts for me, but...
If someone could restrain me in rubber, edge me, unzip my crotch and then cum on my locked dick (multiple loads, from multiple people even), and then zip me up and keep me restrained and horny for a long while, I'd be in a world of bliss. Electro too!

Is it really locktober when you are permanently self locked? Just another day/week/month of self imposed lock down.

It's taught me a lot about myself, I've learned how important my prostate is to me, and how much more I love the gear, bondage and process than the getting off.

A hot water heated towel warmer has to be the best use of geothermal water on earth. Iceland is way ahead

I think I want to learn Icelandic. It seems like such a fun language
