today is an administrivia day. my current portfolio of domain names, email hosting, web hosting, etc. is best described as “a terrible mess.”

working on straightening that out. and stretch goal - finally get some content up on most of my (checks notes… gasps) 28 domain names.

spent another day yesterday hauling truckloads of leaves to the transfer station. we should be just about done with fall yard cleanup.

it’s been incredibly dry here in the northeast, and the leaves are “fluffy” and “crispy” which means they do not compress well.

recently discovered that in the Health app, my Apple devices are recording data and inferring things about my mobility fitness. i wish there was a “Dog Walk” workout option that would omit data for that particular activity.

walk. stop. walk. stop. get pulled sideways. walk. stop. bend over. walk. stop. spin around to untangle the leash. run a little. stumble. stop.

@jerzone oh wow. i haven’t actually broken a phone screen yet but i got a bit of a gouge on this one shortly after i got it. it seems that resistance to shattering and resistance to scratching and inversely proportional

excited to read the m4 macbook pro announcements today. my employer has me on the schedule for a ‘device refresh’ in … (checks notes) 2026. when my intel macbook pro will be seven years past its manufacturing date.

@m750 when i park in a parking lot, if i can’t pull through (so i can pull out) i will back in.

why? when i’m arriving at the parking lot, i have full situational awareness of what other cars and pedestrians are around me, this makes backing in easier & safer. vs when i’m leaving - i’m usually stuck between a minivan and a giant pickup truck, so backing out is fraught; i have no visibility to the sides as i enter the path of oncoming traffic or people.
