I stopped using most meta products, but I get 1-3 emails a day about someone trying to reset the password in my instagram account.
If there’s one thing I’d teach the youths it would be the internet doesn’t just remember the embarrassing things, it makes you have to defend

Remento has been invaluable for documenting my dad's life while he's still able to recall the details. I know it'll be a wonderful gift to our family, including him, eventually.

Having to tighten the belt with subscriptions now that we're down to one income (I'm available for ericraslich.com/hire/! Put me at your help desk!) I absolutely cannot budget for DOUBLE the price for Todoist. Really grateful they're keeping the Legacy Pro pricing for now. But wow $60/year is a lot.

Really love the random quotes on the @adafruit.com website. Haven't gotten one that didn't seem curated for shoppers like myself.

Home Alone-ing the house so my dog doesn't get anxious when we leave. A trick I didn't realize we could do.
This is Dingo. He gets very anxious if he doesn't have a lap to sit on. In order to meet his lap needs, his family made him an emotional support dummy using pre-worn clothes donated from his grandpa. Dingo couldn't be happier, and we're happy for him. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

I'm thinking @livestore.dev might be something I want to try for a little @nuxt.com app. Does anyone know of an example repo I could check out for inspiration? I think the todo app might get me pretty far, but it's the Nuxt integration I'm curious about.

Sometimes I have a long Saturday commute and I was saving up podcasts for it. Bummer they’re all out of date re: the New World Order after Friday.

Almost started building a Nuxt flashcard/spaced repetition program, then I tried Anki for the first time which is... kind of amazing.

First time listening into the space station! Signal stick on my metal roof in florida with a simple baofeng uv-5r.
What a fun experience. Lost contact in south florida around 12:33 EST.

I think even this summary doesn’t get the point across. Grants are basically buying services for the people of the United States. Sure, they may be a little less profit defined at times, but there are usually rigorous outcomes defined. This is how we get new medicines and technology and research.
I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

All these goobers posting airplanes and stars thinking they’re drones made me realize that if there was social media 500 years ago, a bunch of people would have been sharing pictures labeled “omg a mermaid” with community notes like “that’s a rock” and “manatee.”

What the fuck is this YouTube ad selling replica firearms that shoot rubber bullets? Straight garbage. Can’t look up radios or outdoor stuff without being thrown into the bucket that gets you all the “patriot” toilet paper and prepper nonsense ads.

Electronics folks: Is a usb-C soldering iron (pine64) workable? I can’t decide between that and a Harbor Freight starter kit to start building amateur radio antennas (so not super detail work).

Made my first few FT8 contacts on 20m tonight. Icom 7100, 40% power, inverted vee speaker wire antenna hanging off my porch. One in Minnesota, one in Mexico City, from South Florida. A little anticlimactic, but nothing burnt up! Next time will be better I’m sure!
