As many know, I run a tight email operation. A month ago, I started getting “conservative fear monger spam” for the first two weeks, I unsubscribed to every one but they’re all from different senders so it’s just not working.
This could end up being just another Monday leading into Thanksgiving or it could be a new beginning.
@harrymccracken and support SMS posting. Frankly, I don’t need an app to post and don’t need another app tracking me. You can post from mobile-web I assume but I LOVED SMS Twitter. It was so easy to just text updates.
First day that feels like winter here in Charlotte. It was 39 when I woke up and 44 on the motorcycle ride in to the office.
One my truck is paid off, I'll be ordering a BMW Z4 M40i. This should be a blog post but I’ve been wanting a replacement for my Golf R since I sold it in 2021 and I don't regret selling it for many reasons but I want a sunday warm-weather car that lives in a a garage in appreciates in value …
@sdw I'm thrilled that they maintained the same price. It's essentially a price-cut accounting for inflation and very rare on nearly every product.
@ybrammer DAmn good idea. I was going to say if I was starting over, Mac Mini + TB5 hub loaded with SSDs but I'm using 90 terabytes of my NAS so I'm sort of in ATX-Case x86 zone if I were to build my own. I'd need a LOT of drives.
@ybrammer Sounds expensive. I'm considering just having 10GB drops to a few select ports for now so 2 to my work computer, 2 to the NAS and that’d be it for now.
Delta found my luggage. The long national nightmare is over. Maximum claim was going to be about $1300 which would have covered my clothes and toiletries but there's the whole matter of $6500 in Canon cameras and lenses so I'm thrilled they found it.
Now that my iPad has nano texture, using the MacBook in sunlight is a chore.
Day 4, still no luggage. Delta has been really nice but I’m getting nervous.
@ybrammer Looks like I'd need to spend $2400 - https://store.ui.com/us/en/category/all-switching/products/ecs-24-poe and that's only 16 10GB ports but has POE for my switching I'd need 5 of these, too - https://store.ui.com/us/en/category/all-wifi/products/u7-pro-max
@ybrammer buy once, cry once. My home is wired with cat 6 and my home router (Unifi USG-Pro) I think can do 10G via Fiber but my switch is just gigabit. so I'm just one rack switch away from 10G but it's big money to get a 10G for all 24 drops. I also need to replace my WiFi 5 radios with …
I picked up my 2 suitcases at ATL after customs. I walked around a corner and dropped them off at the place where you re-check your bag for domestic connections. 2 hours later, I arrived in Charlotte and only one of my bags arrived. I have a search running with Delta for my bag and am nervous I may …
YouTube created a media kit for me to send to advertisers. Pretty cool stats. I wish it did rolling 1 year
My work Slack informed me this is my 2nd year at Credit Karma. Nice!
After 2 weeks on iOS 18.2, I've fully disabled all of the Mail features. The Siri priority box, summarizations, sender contact photo and the labels system. The truth is, I am at Inbox Zero every night and already have really complex rules setup and get about 25 personal emails a day and so I …
Finally home. Great trip but I'm exhausted.
Dubai to Ams is complete.
