I have a feeling that announcing you are taking a break from social media can be more about the validation you receive from making the announcment than the break you need from social media. But, that might be because I don’t have a large audience (or any audience). ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I seem to remember a lot of 90’s music videos shot in tunnels. I guess some booking manager was like, “We have tunnels to rent, call the Rap/Rock people and sell them on it. Don’t forget the Brit electronica folks.”
I get the whole “follow the money” saying. I always thought that was parsed more as a law enforcement thing. It never really dawned on me that people actually followed the comings and goings of people at Silicon Valley venture capital firms.
I do not like how Apple compares battery life between devices on their tech specs pages.
It’s time to brew a Chemex batch instead of a Keurig cup this morning.
From seeing the volume of phones ship from the warehouse the iPhone SE was never a very popular model so, it is not surprising that Supply Chain guru Tim Cook led Apple decided to discontinue the device. Pixel Envy
Hanging out on a Saturday afternoon.
So glad for the internet and wikis right now. The ability to search for something and get relevent information and add background knowledge in a second is amazing. I just learned the name of a song that I’ve been trying to figure out for 10+ years.
The best part of Chex Mex are the Chex.
Fight me.
(not literally, just metophorically, you know, in the comments)
TFW you realize that Reality TV has consumed our media to the point where we don’t really have anything else on TV.
The Anonymous Op-Ed from the Senior Trump administrator doesn’t make me feel any better about the direction our government has taken.
So you are working to stop a man who can’t stick to one belief and loves authoritarians from becoming one himself? You want a pat on the back? You should have done more to stop him from getting to this position in the first place. Anyone, and I mean anyone, who worked on or for or with the Trump campaign in the Republican primaries and the general election has no right to now claim they are working to minimize the damage he can do. The damage is done.
You can try to minimize it but, you let the bull in the china shop and bragging about cleaning it up is literally the least you can possibly do.
Does anyone have recommendations for quality, entertaining YouTube channels? I don’t really have any specific topic in mind. Just stuff you enjoy watching that I can check out.
I’m tired of how “the news” is presented in the US. It’s light on the why/what/how and heavy on the “this is what I think” or the “can you believe x said y about x”. “The News” has been turned into a gossip column and there’s no good way to filter the crap to get the actual news.
Is there a best way to create a static blog stored on AWS? I’d be using ChromeOS and Windows maily. Would a Wordpress instance be the best idea? Or just some good ol fashion text files?
All I’ve done today is nap, make food, and watch TV. That is a successful Sunday in my book.
Does it mean I’m too old to listen to pop music if I am tired of hearing auto tuned “singers”?
Divide and conquer.
The playbook used by America to disrupt other countires is being used by our leadership against ourselves.
The reason: to stay in power.
The goal: return us to the 1950’s.
At least that is what it looks like to me; today.
I really should blog about my trip to India. Or at least write it up and share some photos. Because there were so many photos. Even I got tired of taking pictures and I never get tired of taking pictures. But, You’ll have that when you go somewhere you’ve never been before.
Today I’m setting up my analog task manager for September since I took July/August off and felt like I was missing something the whole time.
