Feels good to see this number. Never going to get rich off this but i do enjoy it. First video posted in 2005, 1,462 videos and 9.7 million total views. Its been a lot of fun.
Nice personal milestone.
@gruber I’m running my own instance for $6 a month.
Infinity Pool was not my kind of film and feels like it was dreamt up on a napkin at a dive bar. #OneSentenceMovieReview.
Tonight, haircut and Infinity Pool (film). Big week for movies, seeing Knock at the Cabin as well.
Had an MRI done on my shoulder this morning. Last time I did this about a year ago, they took one image and used no dye. This time, two images + dye which should yield a better result. Feel on my shoulder 09/2021 from about 12 feet in the air and still can’t sleep comfortably. Not hoping for surgery …
Before you do a final Time Machine backup and wipe your machine, check to see if you excluded any folders. I excluded ~/Movies. That was dumb. Buh-Bye most of our honeymoon videos. Anything shot on the drone or real camera is gone.
Great day at Carowinds with the family. I really hope the photos on my 200MM Lens came out with the kids on rides.
Saturday! Going to Carowinds today.
I didn’t plan on doing a full MacOS system restore this weekend but Disk First Aid is clearly not giving me a choice. APFS with a standard OS install on an M1 Mac really shouldn’t suffer corruption but here we are.
but hey, it's Friday! WOOHOO
In other news, I wrote what I believed was a pretty good post yesterday about Persistence of Written Word in Mastodon. The Wordpress app for iPad lost it. So I probably won't write it again but oh well.
There are a few folks I'm following for which I'll have to mute or unfollow. I'm sorry to do this so soon into my Mastodon journey but since 2016, I've specifically chosen to not follow politics except for long-form journalism. I'll read long pieces in Atlantic or New Yorker or …
Lunch was Empanadas. It was delicious. I overdid it and am now stuffed.

First time re-watching #StrangerThings. Heather has never seen it and we just finished season one and she’s really enjoying it. She doesn’t like Sci-Fi so I’m surprised she’s into it. No complaints here!
Inner ear infection. That’s a new one.
Never had what feels like vertigo before. Was trying to be funny and say “feeling dizzy. My delete later” Anyway, used the Withings blood pressure arm band. That’s normal. No fever, had some espresso and chocolate. No change. Shower, did some light exercise. No improvement. Dizzy for 3 hours so I’m …
@ybrammer I heard it’s a moderation decision. Your 20K toots may not fit with a new server’s policy and someone could inport a bunch of old hate speech. Could be technical and “coming soon” as a feature. I’d prefer an instance admin making the choice of what can be imported.
Made some updates to the blog header to link to Mastodon. I removed my newsletter link thanks to the Twitter Owned GetRevue shutting down and I imported all of those Motorcycle newsletters into my Wordpress blog. Shame on me for publishing to someone else's server (GetRevue) …
@ybrammer YEP! I was on another instance for 4 weeks and when I realized that if they decide to shut down, I lose all of my posts, I decided to spin up my own instance. Twitter never promised to host our tweets forever but being at the mercy of someone who is just offering a public service by …
Whoa...followers. Hai! Some of you I know from Twitter back in the day. Nice to see you again.
@jamesbritton I’ll go back eventually. I agree. It seems to get better every single year.
@jamesbritton morning! I was in northern New Hampshire and the EV Hyundai would suffer a 50% drop in range half of the year (cold weather) and no charging infrastructure. With 100 miles range, I felt stuck. Couldn’t even get to Massachusetts on a charge. So I went to a diesel with really good fuel …
@jamesbritton what about owner an EV and went to diesel? I’m probably a tiny minority but that’s my situation.
