We’re traveling tomorrow and won’t be able to watch the #colts live. But I’m jumping through some wild hoops to record the game over the air, VPN back to my network, stream it from the recording to my phone, and AirPlay it to a TV. Grandpa Phil and the boys better make this worth it.

This morning I read up on new leaders at @Mastodon and their plans. I then took advantage of the option to make a tax-deductible donation. This can be done from the U.S. by donating to the Mastodon 501c3 entity via GiveButter. I look forward to the future of Mastodon! https://givebutter.com/nAk74p

Took advantage of the unseasonably warm weather to take my exercise outside today. I’ll be confined to the elliptical for plenty of cold and snowy days in the coming months, so I can’t pass up the change when I have it.

I do a whole slew of little puzzles and games (e.g., Wordle, Bracket City, etc) every morning to stretch and warm up for the day. I will often get stuck and put it away for a while only to find that I crush an answer within seconds of returning to it. I think there is a lesson there.

New Outlook is getting progressively worse. I now can’t properly reply to a meeting invite from the desktop and have to use the mobile app.

I went to the tiny little collectibles store in town where I picked up a stack of ratty, beat up, awesome Silver Age stuff a few weeks ago expecting to do more of the same. Instead, I walked out with this stack. I think I have a problem!

Huh. Just chatted in person with someone who's been on #mastodon for a while, now, who honestly thought that all the Mastodon domains were run by Mastodon. And having a different domain was, like, just a vanity thing to look cool. It only came up because they were complaining about an issue they […]

I’m performing the traditional “check mom’s computer at Thanksgiving” and all systems are green. I installed #xubuntu about 6 months ago and it is going great! I was terrified at first but they’ve completely fine as long as they know where the web browser and files/explorer buttons are.
