Back from Olympic National Park! Had an incredible time, every inch of the park is breathtakingly beautiful 😍

After having a turntable for a month I'm already up to 51 records 😶

It's so addicting finding new stuff to listen too and constantly browsing r/VinylDeals for huge discounts

Going on a road trip with my wife and 3yo to WA in a week. Will mostly be in the Clallam area around Port Angeles/Olympic NP.

Would love some recs on cool stuff to see/do from anyone familiar with the area 😁❤️

The new Sleep Token album is the only thing keeping me going right now

Ugh I've been in such a weird headspace lately.

It just feels like my emotional state 9/10 times is just ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Gotta love when you're in a meeting with stakeholders and one guy is obsessed with the new feature being "simple" 🙄

Of course I want it to be simple, devs *generally* don't go out of their way to make something complicated. It happens as a result of ever increasing business requirements.

Going on a trip to NJ for work tomorrow, and trying to explain it to my kid.

They've grasped the idea that my wife and them are taking me to the airport but I don't think they quite understand I'll be gone until Thursday lol

I'm going to miss them so much 😭

Back in the land of the living after a much needed mental health break from social media.

I was spending waaay too much time obsessing over all the horrible shit going on and it was seriously messing with my head.

I FINALLY GOT NEXTCLOUD TO WORK.

Like I thought, it was something incredibly minor and stupid. I forgot that I changed the port apache was listening to by default.

The only way I figured this out was recovering part of the file using RecoverPy. Pablo Lecolinet if you're out there I owe you a beer

Ugh what a week. Since my last post, my wife got sick with norovirus, my cat came down with bladder stones, and I nuked my nginx proxy configs for my home server 😭

Wife is feeling better and got medicine for Lily, but restoring the configs is a work in progress.

Happy new year y'all

My current goal for 2025: stop being sick

Just got my new PC to post!

Still feeling a little sick and completely out of energy so I'll probably have to put off installing Arch until tomorrow and just run memtest overnight.

Will take some pictures tomorrow as well 😎

Its that difficult time of the year where I start weaning myself off eggnog
December 29, 2024 at 2:47 PM
Feeling a lot better today, still getting occasional waves of nausea but I'm otherwise symptom-free and able to actually get out of bed.

I just count myself lucky that I only get super sick like that once or twice a year.

Looks like I got the norovirus that's been making the rounds. The last 12 hours have been absolutely hellish 🤢

Can barely stomach water and saltine crackers, but I'm at least not having to kneel before the porcelain god every hour

Stay safe y'all and wash your hands religiously. This shit sucks

My wife and I are watching Cool Runnings tonight. Forgot how good this movie is! The actors all have great chemistry with each other and John Candy is such a gem

My progress so far on my TOTEM build! Almost done with the switch sockets, then on to the microcontrollers.

It quickly became apparent that my soldering skills are very, very rusty. A few dodgy welds but everything should hopefully work 😅

Thankfully I have a backup board in case it doesn't

Got on my PC for the first time this week and immediately installed ghostty. It's weird to be excited about a new terminal emulator I know 😅

So far I'm loving it! It just seems very well thought out and polished. Since it has proper image support it'll probably end up replacing Alacritty
