OMG, it is finally finished. Fence went up Sep 20 and I have been at this ever since. Tearing down the deck at the start of summer seems ages ago.

Outside in mid-November #NewEngland putting shovel to the dirt, trying to make the side of a hill level. Plenty if time to think about the current state of things in the US. I don’t know about you, but I think that I am finally understanding #US #politics. #Bubba

One year of daily driving #Linux! I won’t say there have been no issues, but there would have been issues with Windows in that time, as well. What issues there were, were fixed fairly quickly. I do use Windows on my work-issued laptop, so I honestly have to be paid in order to use Windows.

Long time listeners of the podcast should well remember this song.
“When old man Hannan put shovel in the dirt,
HE HIT CONCRETE!”
In this case, it is asphalt, that was poured in 1953 and uncovered when I tore down our terrible deck earlier this summer. #Homeowner #DIY #sweat

Happy Labor Day!

QUACK! Happy Work From Office In Order to Collaborate Day!

Ladies and gentlemen, I regret to inform you of the return to a pre-COVID staple: the rainy-day commute QUACK! Yes, commute. I have to go in 1 or 2 days a week now. The point of which my manger, who is in Dallas…and working from home… could not explain to me. “1 or 2 = 1” #QUACK

I don’t often get to meet new people these days. This young man was about as new as it gets: 1 day. ❤️ #GrandNephew

Dear, #London. Thanks for making us feel as welcomed as the throngs of French families. Cashless is an interesting concept. I very much enjoyed visiting the #RoyalObservatory.

The last time I visited London, it was during the Queen's Golden Jubilee. I only found that out after I landed and saw that the entire city was in party mode. I don't think that this visit will have the same vibe.

Checking out TheStoryGraph and its Stats feature.
HA! I am not shocked by what is in the top spot, but seeing the actual number of books in that genre is kind of shocking.

Can anyone tell me why this box exists and isn't checked by default? #pfsense #vlans #802.1q What happens if I check it?
Asking for a friend...in Production.
