I am terrible at lumping too many files together in a commit when I spend an entire day debugging.

It’s been nearly two months since Xfinity’s coax cable was clipped out at the street by a different company laying fiber. I occasionally get a trickle of the interwebs, but most of the time it cuts out so frequently that it’s impossible to use.

I have dealt with WiFi interference in my audio monitors for over a decade. I’d hear static through them when browsing the intertubes. It wasn’t bad if music was playing, but it was ANNOYING if not. I’d switch audio sources to avoid it.
Today I figured out the subwoofer was the source. 1/x

Zappos used to be great. Fun app, great filtering, and fast shipping. I don't know if it was the Amazon acquisition, but the website and app are terrible now.

First time visiting the new side of the Seattle Aquarium, and it was pretty cool. Architecturally, it’s quite impressive.

Some company is laying fiber conduit in my neighborhood, but I have no idea who. I would love to dump Comcast and get those screaming fast upload speeds.

Just put some Sunset choc switches on my ZSA Voyager and I'm liking them a lot more than the pro reds (linear). I think I'll leave the linear switches for the keys my pinkies hit, but everything else feels better tactile.
Definitely less misses now that the switches have a little more resistance.

A `.railsrc` file seemed lilke a cool thing thing until I wanted to kick the tires on Rails 8 and kept getting postgres for a database.

My dentist's online payment system isn't hooked into the rest of their bookkeeping, so you have to make a payment online *and then call them* to let them know a payment has occurred.
I feel like that could be streamlined a bit.

I smoked some Texas Twinkies today. Jalapeños stuffed with brisket, cream cheese, sharp white cheddar, and onions. Then wrapped in bacon and brushed with BBQ sauce.
