It's uncanny how many of my memories focus around these little fur balls. It's one of the two pups or my wife.

Is #Amazon allowed to do this? My understanding is that I can't do this legally. This is a single 🎤 pop filter- obviously from a larger set.
I'm sure that if I tried to sell an individual item from a set, I would get slapped down.

If modern #StarTrek has taught me anything it's that I would gladly watch longer meetings, courtroom drama, diplomatic discussions, and more if the characters and topic were interesting.

Any #ITSecurity Pros out there worried about unsecured IoT/OT devices on your networks? What about the drastically shortening lifetimes for certificates?

Finally! I'm finally able to replace my aging Ergo Keyboard.
After nearly a decade of use, the rubberized covering has given out and is peeling and the foam underneath is crumbling, but the keys are as snappy and responsive as ever. #Incase #MicrosoftHardware
