Just like Savings & Loans. The metal fingerstop on rotary pulse telephones! Wipers on headlights! npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zak…d6uu Yup! I was born 7/8/1975. Fun little coincidence, my maternal grandparents were married on 7/8/1937. So many July 8ths! npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zak…d6uu If nobody else will, I will. Happy Birthday to you, Birthday Buddy. 😘 npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 #Monsterdon and it ended. Poof. Just like that. Okay! npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1tel…4v4v Like when you release timber wolves to improve the local ecology. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Leni Rifenstahal. Thats my guess. Total shot in the dark. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Lovely meme I spotted on #TikTok.

Everyone will feel this, know it to be true. Deep down. Trust me. https://open.spotify.com/track/1rrykna2c3ag0oPHmD1ZTa?si=QftPUdiGTQy8T5FmEx-_Iw&context=spotify%3Asearch%3Awelcome%2Bto%2Bthe%2Bshit%2Bshow #infotech #today #work #everything #music #spotify npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Funny, I got the probate application material, legal stuff, and the IRS SS-4 form. Filled it all out, sent it back to the estate lawyers, and because I don’t trust the #USPS as far as I could throw them, I added Certified Mail to it. The cost was $4.44. I stood at the counter at the USPS silently laughing uproariously. Of course it would be $4.44. Just more of these oddly repeating numbers. Yes, #synchronicity, I see you. So this was what, supposed to be? (1/2) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1su4…a0dw Get all the whistleblowers into a witness protection program now. The passengers are dead already. It’s already exploded, we just have to wait for the tragedy. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1the…k9sg I imagine this was the forgotten reason why so many boomers died of Pancreatic Cancer 60 years later. Shucks… see ya, boomer… ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zw2…2aln This will be amusing when HIPPA, PCI, and GDPR get their hands on this feature. Ah well, go get ‘em my formless gloppy governmental and pay-system regulators! Embrace, Engulf, Enwetten. ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zak…d6uu Ohhh, there will be drugs tho. ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Plop plop fizz fizz, ohhhh what a relief it is! Alka-seltzer, for when you ate the entire thing. Yes Ralph, you ate the entire thing. I shouldn’t have eaten the entire thing. Poor Ralph. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 My partner made those infamously insanely amazing peanut butter cookies with dark chocolate chips. A huge batch. And the #Easter ham is out and resting. Waiting on the Asparagus and Mashed Potatoes to finish… wheee! #today #food #dinner npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Tonight I’m gonna check out another classic movie, it’ll be Communion which is the UFO tale by Whitley Streiber. This is gonna hit different I think. #today npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 So I get my day underway. I do the same things I’ve done for countless days in the past. I go to work, helping people without knowing what they do, what my company does, which is where the meaninglessness comes from. If we weren’t tied to this nightmare machine for basic survival I could be helping a lot more people and making this world a better place. But the nightmare machine demands loyalty and obedience and then wastes us all so rich people can have their Elysian life. #today npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 I got irrationally irked when I spotted math sludge on my home feed. A beautiful blender result of a bunch of symbols. So pretty. Meaningless. I started to wonder if it was just a lot of make work. But then I stopped myself, because for some folks, math is their personality and their passion and who am I to trample it? So I just unfollowed the person. Save the bit about how pointless it is, just flick the light-switch and back away slowly. LOL. #today npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub132h…f594 I keep on seeing videos and reports of bag checks. There’s a part of me that wants to fill a bag full of very suggestive porn and sex toys, a whole host of various personal lubricants, some rope, some candles, a small length of steel chain and an assortment of padlocks and a big roll of CAUTION poly tape. Yeah, open that bag up. Look inside. Anything catch your eye? *cackles with evil* ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub15l7…aang Pushing Up Daisies npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Fried Green Tomatoes? Total guess… npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1lrv…tth9 @npub1qql…nkgv Cancel your subscription and flush the toilet paper journalism down. Gotta flush a lot, it’s a long way to Washington, DC. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 I started to ponder why I have to remain solitary and isolated on my journey. Think “The Hermit” in Tarot, between him and “The Hanged Man” I think. That I’m out of sync with people around me. That the things I find compelling and fascinating aren’t really going to get any reactions from a lot of people because we’re all on different wavelengths. At first I was grumpy, but I worked it out and started to see clearer. It isn’t that they are spurning me, but just, out of sync. #today npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Yes! Damn, been a while… ;) “Missed it, by that much…” :D npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Facts of Life. Mrs. Garret, Trudi, Blair, the theme song… I am so old. LOL. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed I used this to stun my group Signal chat. Thank you. ❤️ npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1khx…geyg SW Michigan here. We’ll have highs in the 70’s today, and then after that, snowfall and lake effect. Plus, the AQI is 156. Hot cha cha! npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Okay! It’s a new #work week ahead of us. We don’t know why we’re doing any of what we do. We go to a place and sit for eight hours, quietly nudging people into their well-worn work ruts, decisions and direction are not for us, we’re just digitally loading coal into a boiler with a shovel. #infotech #today #PointlessWork #LookBusy npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1qan…xa5c @npub1euu…dgnk @npub1gmx…atcq We are the inmates, the warden, the guards, and Earth is our jail. We maintain, as best we can, this penal colony world. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zak…d6uu E911 regulations. If you have a cell phone, you have to, by law, always be able to call 911. So when a network goes down, like AT&T’s cell network, all the phones go to SOS, and then spill over to the nearest available carrier. Then they register SOS with the tower. Suddenly thousands of new customers appear poof! And so, DDoS. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zak…d6uu When AT&T dumped millions of phones into SOS mode, it created a DDoS event for all surrounding carriers. This is hubris, entropy, and a collective Hoisting-Own-Petard event. We did this to ourselves. We are dopey creatures. ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed This brought me such a wonderful feeling of joy. Thank you for the happy. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub15l7…aang A couple of years ago I spotted a wall mount for a princess phone in my kitchen. While I was chiseling away the paint and unscrewing the mount, I giggled furiously. It felt wonderful to remove it from my home. Then I sanded it flat, cut the cord, pulled it an inch past the baseboard and cut it off, then painted over it. You can still spot the rectangle of the mounting plate, like a ghost. I spent a while daydreaming about tossing these wretched things in a giant bonfire. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed Yup, had this exact one. Get out of my mind, you Bene Gesserit witch? ;) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Just had an inspiration. An app, a blend between #Tinder and #LinkedIn. It aggregates #layoff data easily and lets prospective hires know the total layoff history of a company. Maybe it helps you decide on which position to take? It might also create a subtle supply and demand curve to layoffs. Lay off too much, and your hiring team starves to death. Then your company stalls and… implodes. Hmm. That would be fascinating to see work in our world. #today #labor #SocialNetworking npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Okay! Time to keep going with this new baby blanket I’m making. Using #crochet and my favorite fpdc/bpdc stitch. One side is smooth the other ribbed. It’s lovely! Standard sticky note pad for scale. #today Yes, it’s a gift. Yes it cost time and money to make. But that’s not the point. The point is a warm baby in all this cold winter weather. :) https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/830/155/211/764/441/original/e26252b27690f0be.jpeg npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1vs7…a6g3 Celery, Carrots, Red and Green Peppers cut into long strips and little two ounce plastic peel away peanut butter cups. Vegetables for fiber, peanut butter for protein. Keeps you full longer, also heat stable. Years of attending #SDCC and #C2E2. Also pack handy foam cushions because standard seating is often flat and hard and at the end you just don’t want to sit, again, any more than you must. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Here’s the #crochet project I’m working on now. My coworker’s wife is going to have a baby in March and I’m making a 28x32 baby blanket. Featuring my favorite stitch, alternating FPDC and BPDC, using Caron brand Baby Cakes in “Skygazing” colorway. #wip #today #BabyBlanket https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/786/263/017/646/811/original/f4338e93dc02d64d.jpeg https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/786/263/317/473/267/original/e6b3d5f732452fed.jpeg npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Another little #cooking tip, if you are trying to watch #carbohydrates you can swap out the #potatoes in a soup recipe for equivalent amount of #turnip. The starch in turnip is less available than the starch in potatoes and can help you keep those carb counts low. Turnip smells sharp raw, but that quickly cooks away, and the taste is nearly indistinguishable from potatoes. Just peel the turnips first and get the root and stem off. Then carve away. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1up2…k6en From what I recall about PCMCIA, it had a shocking number of teeny tiny little pins in the port assembly. Maybe one is bent or broke off? npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub19fc…ay3c Search will get sucked in with social media. Just hop onto whatever social platform you like, announce a wild guess as the answer to your question, put both online, and in a few heartbeats, you’ll get fully-annotated and curated solutions from know-it-alls getting their flex online. ;) You could argue, you know, just to make it worth their while, try to make it non-obvious that you just leveraged them for nothing. Like a conversational tic-tac. :) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1zdp…vqv8 @npub13rw…nfd8 Just had a flash on napr.com, a dot-com social gaming platform where people compete to be quiet, relaxing, and the scores are kept by number of naps you’ve taken and how long. Then people can get online ribbons of achievement for taking really satisfying naps. And I don’t even care that it wouldn’t be profitable. I’d win PowerBall and flush the cash out the back end with this goofy idea. I’d do it for the laughs, and spreading the wealth. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 Every time I walk into a public-purpose lavatory, and spot the toilet paper rolls I evaluate the people nearby. If the roll is on backwards I chuckle and mutter “Filthy Savages” and flip the roll around. The patent for this is very clear, there’s a polarity to paper towel rolls. The only exception is a housecat. Fine. Mount it backwards because of the cat. But in public? Savages. Filthy unwashed brutish savages. LOL. #today #ToiletPaperPolarity npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1up2…k6en Does anyone remember ZIP death? Something about the heads being misaligned and carving into the disks and then moving that disk to another drive would push the head out of alignment the same way. That was bananas. :) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1y0s…pzt3 @npub1ccn…czwu @npub1smm…pm4m Don’t forget fear, guilt, and shame… It seems to only be able to flog the lowest emotions and tries to fashion them into trauma-delivering weapons that we use to hurt one another. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1c57…awu5 Yay! I’m glad you got a chance to browse it! It’s pretty much “My Soundtrack” during the day, when I am not watching dumpsters float along on fire, at work, that is. LOL. :D npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1psa…xhme Awful iPage. They were cheap. And I’m getting every dull cheap cent they are worth. I wanted to switch to Bluehost, because thats where I dragged my work blogs, but as it turns out, iPage and Bluehost are pretty much the same I guess. It went from “I need a new host” to “The new host I wanted is just the same as the old host I have.” And so, why would I upset the apple cart if I’m going to end up with the same incompetence? Stay with the pigeons, I guess. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1psa…xhme It’s okay, my blog is a pile of trash anyhow. I thought I could get the ActivityPub plugin to work, but my host refuses to enable whatever the endpoint-public part is. The plugin works fine, it activates and everything, but it doesn’t work because my host doesn’t understand. When I ask for help, they ask if I want to install WordPress. When I tell them I want to upgrade but the upgrade link is broken they just stare at me like pigeons. So I’m trying to upgrade manually. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1psa…xhme I went from “Wouldn’t it be nice to have the ActivityPub plugin work?” To “I hope I can upload wp-includes and wp-admin…” at some point I’ll learn and not do these hopeless things online. We’ll see if all this FTP uploading actually works. I’ve probably lost my blog in the process, so it’s all just rot. Thanks anyhow. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1gfd…7gg6 The clown car doors finally open. Ah. Douchebags.

A vehicle so remarkably ugly that nobody tailgates it, or sideswipes it. The safest vehicle on the road, because it’s a leper and nobody wants to be near it. The Cybertruck parking lot, a 21st Century Leper Colony. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1a76…3kkt Putting a lot of value on the open latrine that is YouTube. Maybe ignore it and dump it and turn to anywhere else but that site. Along with everything else Google has crapped on.

Holy crow! Nailed a speed limit sign, which filled me with anarchic glee, and then, they hit the fire hydrant. Hah. Ouchie. Car parts and chunks all over the place.

I had a vendor who was offering me a Visa Gift Card for listening to his sales pitch. I'm #GenX and my native feelings on this in #infotech are skeeved-out-AF by the presence of a gift card. It strikes me like #Payola and so, on a lark I went to #GoogleBard and asked it about this, the response was shockingly cogent. Bravo :) npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1ccn…czwu Patrotic pretty much sums it up. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1tel…4v4v @npub13rw…nfd8 I will rejoice when that mug is never seen again.

But then, PowerShell has always been a hot nasty pile of shit. I’m not even surprised. So, PowerShell 5 on my stupid Windows 10 VM doesn’t understand “$StartDate = Get-Date.AddDays(-7)” but it does understand “$StartDate = [DateTime]::Now.AddDays(-7)”. Yeah, fine, whatever. Syntax whore. I fully understand this is a immense waste of time and will not work properly, no matter how hard I try. #GremlinOrgy npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed A finely crafted misogynistic insult. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1nn8…8sed I spent decades of my life unable to properly express a thing I could do inside my head. I could consciously make a rushing sound appear, and I couldn’t explain what it was to anyone else. Then one day I encountered another person on #tiktok and they described this very thing. I have conscious control of my Tensor Tympani. It’s a teeny muscle in my ears, and the rushing sound is blood flow. Also, I can also consciously move my ears, semi-ambidextrously. npub1c0l2a0gxtsru8uuwh5yn6ruc3yjap5s9k7c3v758elhuqnztmvgszyyl62 npub1c0…yyl62 @npub1su4…a0dw For the bargain basement price of $775,000.

Then you’ll grab the power and yank it, plug it back in, and wonder to the spirits of the air, how long until it craps out again?
