Guess I’m gonna have to make a “scam-of-the-day” section in my “shit I don’t like about living in the States” category of the blog.
✔️ calling from Belgium (?) ✔️ goofy ass AI voice. ✔️ I am literally a licensed tax pro. My shit is always on time.
They got the wrong one today! Don’t fall for this!
I didn’t even know this was a thing: Installed this Intel Arc A310 GPU to aid in transcoding and AI tasks but now my QNAP sees it as system memory. How does that even happen?! 64GB but let’s use the 4GB on the GPU instead. 😒 #homelab

This smells like some Nazi/Bolshevik/Orwellian type shit right here. Why does it seem like nobody else is giving the slightest damn about this?!

That playbook being published is the reason I’m not freaking out. Quit pretending like you don’t know what’s coming next and prepare yourself.
We are seeing Project 2025 unfold in real-time.
(The dystopian humor in having AI summarize and keep track of this all II at lost on me either. 🤖)
Wouldn’t be a winter storm in Atlanta if the power didn’t damn go out. Good thing I gassed up the RV beforehand. Time for some driveway camping.

End of the year family RV trip down to Tallahassee to see some friends from Japan we haven’t seen since we moved back Stateside…

The Christmas 2024 gifts from my wife and kids. 🎄 💁♀️👧🧒👧
MARTA service still suspended at some stations after train derails on bridge
…its a damn shame we’re squandering this literal gift of urbanity from the late 1970s like this. MARTA could be every bit as good as DC Metro, or better but all we do is complain when stuff like this happens, but use that to justify not fixing it. 🫤
Working on the #indieweb #fediverse #bluesky workflow with micro.blog.
⏰ It’s gonna take me so much time to straighten out my micro.blog stuff. But I’m here for it I guess.
Watching the ballots being counted in my part of the ATL burbs.
📍 Gwinnett County Voter Registrations & Elections


I can say that I’ve had the opportunity to witness both a former president and a possible future president that share a similar background as myself, in the same place and time as myself.

The good thing about Georgia’s record breaking early voting is that my canvassing list is shorter now. Some of y’all still haven’t done it though, so please vote so I don’t have to knock on your door! ✊🏾🚪😉🗳️
Oh yeah, forgot to say we have a cat now too. Meet Marcy! 🐈
It was an easy assignment, a real no-brainer. All you gotta do is just pick the sane, coherent one and stay clear of the strange creeper dancing in the corner by himself.

Well that was a wonderful, eye opening and refreshingly entertaining trip back to my birthplace.
Finally seems like people have found the diamonds in the rough and got their polishing grease ready to go.
