We're living in a disinformation overload era.

I used to think society only progressed. Nope, measles and tariffs are back.

Does anybody else have a drawer that magically turns functional pens into non functional pens?

"I wonder why I have trouble sleeping?" as I sip coffee at 10 pm.

Computer parts aren't depreciating as fast as they used to. I'm seeing people online making new builds with CPUs that came out 5 years ago.

I have been having a hard time adjusting from upgrading so frequently.

I keep wanting to buy a 2.5Gb ethernet switch, just I have to wait till I have two 2.5Gb devices.

It's completely irrational cause I rarely transfer files between computers.

Went to an Aldi's opening. Honestly left disappointed. The prices weren't any better than the other stores in the area.

I know I'm getting old when I'm excited an Aldi's is opening closer to me.

Just finished watching M3GAN 2.0. They weaved a lot into the movie and payed homage to a lot movies and cultural events.

I'm a fan of the genre and tropes, so it might be my favorite movie I have watched this year.

Experience tells me I couldn't even do the database schema in a weekend.

Here's some cute bounding box functions for 2D shapes. A longer list here: iquilezles.org/articles/bbo...

I appreciate all my long term friends that we can go radio silence for months yet still somehow be there for each other.

A die photo of the 386 processor. It is a square with complicated patterns on top. Under the microscope, the circuits appear in dark purple. Parts of the chip have been marked with boxes: these are standard cell circuits and have a distinctive striped appearance.

Intel's 386 processor (1985) was critical to the success of Intel. With 285,000 transistors, it was too much for Intel's design process and the schedule started slipping. Intel pivoted to "standard cells", an automated technique for chip layout to get back on track. Let's look closer...

Grogu (aka baby Yoda) blowing leaves with an electric leaf blower.

This time of year I'm always blowing leaves.

I'm so happy I have 4 systems with 32GB of RAM or more right now. Bit sad that I will be putting off a new AM5 system indefinitely.

I think society's perspective of overly muscular as being healthy can make people not understand the health risks.

I caught it and released it outside. I can sleep without worrying about it now.

I went outside to clean some leaves off my car and then I get inside and feel something on fall on my back. I grab it and realize it's a grasshopper and instinctively throw it away...

...then I realized I was inside. Oops

Not being able to go to the gym cause the route to the gym is closed.

A project becomes serious when I introduce source code control.

One thing I like about older PCs is I'm actually more productive on them. Like "Can't play the latest game on this...might as well program..."

I know I'm old cause I get annoyed when the weekly supermarket flyer doesn't arrive.

@shopritestores.bsky.social I'm talking about you.

I really want to know the pros and cons.

My can of soup has so much sodium I have to plan the rest of my day's meals around it.

Deers hit by cars in my town don't stay around long as they used to cause I found out where to report them to the state.

I have been mindlessly mapping things I morally oppose to on OSM and I am struggling with it.

I think it's relatively new and not well understood. So it's a bit on the forefront of changing our understanding of health.

It's also makes it an easy scapegoat, even though in many ways we're responsible for our own gut health.
