Say what you want about super hero fatigue... they've pushed the norms to where we're getting a big budget He-Man film and they're playing it straight, and whether it sucks or not I'm glad they're taking the swing at it.
I'm starting to think Idris Elba will show up for anything, though.

My smart thermostat was offline for over a month after it applied a software update. I poked at it but couldn't find an easy fix.
Did some googling and found out how to restart it without involving the fuse box and did that.... instant fix.
I'm glad it's fixed, but I'm also annoyed.

God, someone hide Newsom's podcast equipment from him. I've never seen so many own goals.
I have no idea who Newsom thinks his target audience is.
I'll vote blue no matter who at this point, probably for life, but he definitely won't be my primary pick.
(Assuming we still have a democracy)

Man, if I stumble into making tens of millions of dollars I hope I have the good sense to shut the fuck up and build a bunch of libraries and fund food banks so when I check out peoples first response isn’t “So, that asshole’s done.”
The bar. It is SO LOW.

My cable modem up and died after just two and a half years. Feels like a really short time frame for a cable modem. I think I got my money's worth out of the purchase (vs leasing) but whoof.
There's only like three brand that do the top end modems that my provider supports.

Was watching some Stargate clips on Youtube, and I really think if they choose to do a TNG instead of a reboot when they bring it back that it's going to be hard to find the right tone.
There's a lot of problems trying to get the steam going with a continuation, but I think the biggest will be us.

Trailer of Supergirl looks promising. Considering they're basing it mostly off an actual comic storyline, I do wonder if this is the quickest turnaround of comic story to movie, at least for Marvel/DC?
Guardians of the Galaxy was close, but it was much less of an adaptation as well.

Today in Corporate Email Administration:
I had to go into everyone's mailboxes and nuke a personnel announcement email from HR that was sent late Friday, because apparently the author used animations from New Outlook that would crash Classic Outlook.
10/10 crash reason, Microsoft. No notes.

I beat Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom finally. Spent way too long on it.
Surprising fact, because of this and Dispatch, I beat two games with Matt Mercer playing the villain this month!!
Considering how rarely I power through single player games, two in one month is quite the coincidence.

Commander,
I have a sensitive matter to discuss with you. After the recent incident on the holodeck with the sentient Mario character and his mind control hat, I saw Geordi working in engineering wearing that same hat, a wide mustache, and white gloves.
