@fred @marcamos does this mean i don’t have to learn metric anymore?

fun exercise: viewing archives of my website on my 34" ultra-widescreen monitor. (inconceivable monitor sizes at the time, of course) https://history.mikesusz.com/

@atpfm @siracusa we've already done AI in a Potato, it was not good

@jsnell @sixcolors a few from my archives that you might like

@annika ooh that's a nice refresh. i went with a lenovo Y34wz-30 because of mini-LED backlight, but i really haven't used HDR much because the bright is BRIGHT.

@annika ooh neat, which one? is it widescreen? i had a monoprice 34" for a while, my wife took that one over and i have a lenovo legion 34" now. i love it. super useful to be able to split the widescreen between two different inputs, e.g. i've got the left half attached to a dock with my work Mac, and the right half displaying my personal Mac.

@irafcummings getpocket.com/export they sent me a link to a .csv of every article i have unread and archived

@_Davidsmith this is so cool and great to see this kinda tech come so far.

i had terrible flashbacks to the 90s & manually skewing and stitching images in photoshop to create 240x180 QTVR movies from my quicktake 100 camera.

@jerzone better yet, i never told the kids what we were doing. we just stopped at a weird parking area at the end of the road and i started walking. lol

@jerzone if you're ever in the area, it's quite a sight. https://www.nhstateparks.org/find-parks-trails/madison-boulder-natural-area

@jerzone okay i have to ask, have you taken the journey over to Madison? i stopped there with my boys on our way home from Mt. Washington and it was ... quite epic for a quick stop.

@annika i remember being blown away when The Flame in the Flood published a cosplay guide when they released the game. this stuff is so cool.

exciting! creating a new collection on your website to display a new type of content.

not exciting: having to write all the content being displayed, or at least enough for now to make shipping the feature worthwhile.

@jerzone oh man, make that top panel a big fresnel magnifier

@jerzone foiled by a lack of iron!

@jerzone i keep an old magnetic dashboard phone-mount on my desk so i can chuck all the tiny screws at it while i work on projects. if i drop something i can usually sweep that around near the floor and find it eventually. not sure about sproinging things though, that’s gonna increase the target area.

@annika i’ve learned a few sh script tricks by looking at installers for stuff like Astro.

@revmem right? like two 8-10 minute spats that dropped over an inch here. wild.

@marcamos @heymarkreeves i think basketballs are cheaper

@revmem the best option for me is probably cancel all the subscriptions and pay for exactly the things i want to watch?

i hate to say, but i kinda want cable and a DVR again. i have so many subscriptions right now, but any time i have an idea to watch a specific thing, it’s not available anywhere and i have to pay for it.

@gruber my favorite is when it’s styled blue text with an underline decoration but not an actual link to anything

I Write Codes not Tragedies

okay, some of the codes are tragedies

@threetonesun you think that’s more or less expensive than a live goose? 🤔

@jdarnold i’m the guy who keeps a little bike multi-tool in my backpack so i can adjust and tighten all the monitor arms :)

@jdarnold monitors misaligned. please fix.

hold on, nobody asked for humidity.

@atpfm @caseyliss casey. get a tiny usb-c to lightning adapter.

@marcamos me, checking that box, when i know that the website won’t.

@revmem ooh, i haven't had those. my fave in this area (er, new england, probably) is bagel alley in nashua

@sarajw too bad it doesn’t help you to know both exactly where you are and exactly how fast you’re moving

ceo: "people are canceling their premium accounts! what can we do?"
tech bro: "hold my beer."

as i read your training material, every time you use an acronym and don’t explain it, i get to poke you in the eye

not a lot of technical here (the tutorials and guides are great) but i documented my latest journey to self-hosting. https://mikesusz.dev/blog/coolify-setup/

@annika i usually spend my first half hour looking for an RJ45 for my travel router and then i take a nap. sometimes the tvs let you HDMI into them so that’s nice.

i just finished reading The Murderbot Diaries entire series and i didn’t find out until i was on book 3 or 4 that Apple was making TV out of it and now i’m … what’s the word for being both excited and mad?

@atpfm I thought that they were holding off on releasing nice colors on macs until they have an update where the specifications are lackluster.

@atpfm has @siracusa already weighed in on this? https://www.wired.com/story/sony-rgb-led-tv/

@jdarnold i’ve been taking lactase enzyme for years now. it’s … ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@jerzone @m750 this is funny but ... my nephew piped his gaming PC's cooling through his floor and put the radiator+fans in his basement. free basement heat!

@m750 i'm intrigued by new cards but when i built my current machine, i knew that any upgrade would involve a LOT of overhead (custom-loop watercooled) so ... yeah i'm gonna enjoy this one for a while. :) lol

@fred i especially like the ones that berate me and then i look at the Network tab and they tried to load like 30+ tracking scripts

@jerzone oh wow that’s awesome. i’m guessing the outdoor component is kinda what we use now for radiant-floor heat, except painted black (and moving heat in the opposite direction)

@jerzone i've been intrigued by these systems for a while. ideally i'd like to replace my direct-fired boiler DHW with a dual-coil indirect DHW tank, one coil being fed by the boiler and another by a heat pump (basically want to turn my AC waste heat into hot water in the summer).

@jerzone not a plumber but those look like union fittings to me. so the nut should turn (seal made between flat mating surfaces) but you also seem to have much bi-metal corrosion maybe.

@marcamos buncha savages in this town

@marcamos i am drawn to do the same, except i'm currently employed by a Consulting organization that ... has different priorities.

i really used to believe in "Good, Fast, Cheap: Pick 2" but now i'm thinking if you pick "Fast" that's all you get. maybe.

@atpfm when @siracusa was talking about many people in one place with mobile devices i instantly thought about PAX! my kids and i make an offline plan to meet up at specific places and times because we can never count on any data going through (or our batteries lasting long while attempting to send/receive with that congestion)

@jerzone thank you for the picture! i know a couple folks at work who are company-history buffs, i'll share if that's okay.
