I decided to dip my toe into bitcoin mining. I’m fully aware I’ll never make a dime off this. It’s like trying to dig to the center of the earth with an ice cream sample spoon from Baskin-Robbins.

But it looks cool on my desk, and it’s fun to learn about it. 17 years late-but I digress. #bitaxe

Picard’s drink of choice today.

Playing Keeper from @doublefine.com — absolutely jaw droppingly beautiful.

I’m basically playing art. It’s rad.

@timoflegend.bsky.social you all at Double Fine push the medium forward every release!

And it’s fun to see my old pal Fiona in the credits!

Nerd coffee. Actually it’s some campfire blend I got from the Boy Scouts.

I totally overpaid, but 🤷

It’s in a nerdy mug though.

Totally sold my Xbox and moved the PC over to the tv. Now I just have that and the Switch 2.

So far it’s been fantastic.

Finally hooked my PC up to my tv/home theater. Other than the RGB fan on the CPU it looks pretty good.

This might be the new way for gaming (other than switch 2 of course)

All hail GabeN

You’ll be fine. I got one booked too.

Hydration for @richrichmond.bsky.social

I know he likes that.

Taking a few choice games on vacation. Simple, high replay, and fun games…My daughter and her friend aren’t board gamers, so I didn’t want to unleash something like Scythe or Champions of Midgard on them.

Maybe my favorite game of all time (besides Tetris of course) and the Switch 2 makes it even better.

Time to get lost in this game all over again.

I can’t wait to play MKW with you man

Secured. Going to bed. I’ll set this puppy up in the morning.

I’ve made the decision this year to pull back on a lot of posts and topics that’d be considered politically charged.

I have reasons. Professional. Personal.

I still pay attention, and observe…and react—privately.

But I’m keeping BlueSky, Mastodon, FB, and Instagram pretty superficial.

Had to bust out the classic Digg hoodie on the news that Digg.com is back!

@alexwinter.com — wanted to buy a new EV two weeks ago. Got the Equinox, Tesla wasn’t even considered.

I got one a few weeks ago too. Was a huge CarPlay fan.

Honestly? I don’t really miss it.

The handles are silly, but it feels cool when they fold out as you approach.

I’m use to it. Tho it’s not been this bad in awhile.

But right now it looks better.

It’ll be fine in a few hours. Let the dehumidifier run and a few more rounds of shopvacin’

Water in the basement Sunday. But we got it taken care of. Just needed like 30 shopvac fills and a podcast or two.

After hearing @gruber.foo talk about Kagi.com and then hearing it mentione again on The Vergecast, I decided to give it a shot.

It’s great. So is their browser Orion!

Decided to subscribe for the month to see how it goes.

Clean. Great results. No dumb AI.

@benkuchera.bsky.social it’s pretty fantastic.

I’ll play…

Got to play with my new #icom 705. Less wattage than my #Yaesu 710, but easier to transport.

I also noticed if you add “QRP” when you’re calling out, it usually grabs activators attention when you’re hunting for #POTA.

I would have stayed out longer, but my fingers were freezing! #hamradio
