Bulleted 👏 List 👏 Of 👏 Life 👏 Events 👏 In 👏 No 👏 Particular 👏 Order - Wedding was great! Very emotional, pastor was sure keen to let everyone know that when a man and a woman are joined, the holy matrimony that only a man and a woman joining as women and men can do to seal the sacred bond between a woman and a man yada yada ... but the reception was great and we were all very impressed by the groom doing a front flip on the way to the altar. - Covid scare in the middle of the reception! Mostly for me everyone else didnt seem to care much, but literally everyone I had gone to the music fest with and all their coworkers got covid. Did two rapid tests and didnt feel symptoms so I guess it worked out somehow. - Got the XT -> USB adapter! So now after years of having it sit around I can start restoring the old model F keyboard! Supposedly if you ask enthusiasts (i am not one) this is the clicky clackiest keyboard ever made. I can confirm it is very clacky. It also weighs about 250 pounds, has the ctrl, backslash, tilde, and function keys in bizarre places. And the i, 4, +, and backspace keys dont work yet but that'll be fixed soon hopefully - Having a hard time at work, not because the job is that demanding really but because it's finally sunk in just how pointless everything is. Its so hard to bring myself to care when best case scenario our company gets some money and another one doesn't? I don't really like the products we're making. I wouldn't recommend them to a friend. And soooo many jobs are like this. Do I really care if Twitter's ad board is more efficient? Or Johnson and Johnson are able to automate away 40 inspector jobs etc. I literally cant think of the last time someone made non-indie-videogame software and I was like, wow. I'm glad they made this, my life is slightly better now. Seemingly everything is just new and innovative ways to make life worse & more expensive. Finally see why everyone else hates programmers. - Also in a funk 'cuz I feel like my life is stagnating living with my parents but also, where else would i go, and boy is $1.5k/mo rent with roommates really not that much better than $0/mo rent with two roommates that make dinner sometimes - Therapy insurance is annoying. That is all. - Found out about low power radio! https://www.prometheusradio.org/ Supposedly sometime soonish the FCC will give away radio bandwidth to nonprofits running < 100 W transmitters. Thats somewhere around a three mile effective radius. Music licensing is cheap (couple hundred a year) and cost of equipment is sorta cheap (~5k) definitely affordable for someone not paying rent. Less than the amount I've lost in stocks in just the last few months. Really considering trying to start one of those up, not like its been announced yet or anything. Would have to be after moving out of the 'burbs tho cuz three miles around here barely reaches the publix. Would be so fun to have just one station on the air only playing bad stupid songs. Could toss the what music u listening to threads on the air idk theres just so many gimmicks. - Secretly dreaming of leaving it all behind and finding a mixed use retail/residential place to start a boardgame cafe somewhere. Pittsburgh and Ann Arbor of all places don't have a single one!! Philly, which seems like a cooler city has 3 of course :p, might move there regardless of other plans it seems like a nice spot. Would be so cute, open 5-10 W, R, F, S, U, so I wouldn't have to leave the 9-5 until it picks up. Mixed use so it could be a house too without overpaying on land. I'd be the only employee so no fussing about payroll. Already have 100 or so boardgames for the boardgame wall. - @mk, fyi if you have a \* when you edit it will turn into * anyways thats everything, ty
Just put the hubski sticker on the side of my new (used) car :)
