  Folks in my hometown area along Lake Ontario are having fits on Facebook about Google Maps relabeling the lake. I remind them, “if Google Maps is willing to relabel Lake Ontario to make the government happy, just imagine what they’d do with all that data they’ve grabbed from you to make the government happy”.

  “Why do you use 67235515 in so many encryption seed algorithms?” “It’s the SKU of a candy bar I purchased in 1988. If you don’t like that I’ll switch to the SKU for Doritos”.

  So I have an interesting mix of Linux distros running right now: Desktop: Debian Trixie with GNOME 48 Laptop: RHEL 10.2 with GNOME 49 Focused Laptop: Fedora Sway Atomic Home Servers (repurposed Mac Minis from 2011): Debian Trixie 13 I'm keeping the Desktop and Laptop in parity as far as functionality (keyboard shortcuts, etc.) goes and it's working well. I'm still working on moving my photography management from Mac to Linux, but I'm making good strides. #linux

  Linux folks: I’m looking for a photo management app that has basic photo editing capabilities. Don’t tell me about GIMP. Shotwell? digiKam? Something else?

  Welp, the used car dealer has determined it's going to cost too much for them to fix my 2015 Jeep Wrangler under warranty, so they're refunding us all the money and I no longer have a Jeep. Yay?

  I am switching back to the Catppuccin Mocha theme across as many apps as possible and it's making me much happier about tech in general.

  I've bought these "mindmapping" apps over the years and after using these various pieces of software I always come to the same conclusion: just typing my thoughts in a markdown document using vim is the best way for me to map my mind.

  Tra la! It's May! The lusty month of May! That lovely month when everything goes blissfully astray. Tra la! It's here! That shocking time of year When tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear!

  As an individual with brain chemistry that runs into "decision fatigue" quickly, interacting with an LLM for an extended amount of time is bloody exhausting.

  And in this world of LLM assisted coding, it's very clear that I'm a hand keyed SKU in a world of touchscreens and tip requests

  We are moving from fast food attendants using vocal fry to ASMR whisper voices and I am not pleased. Just use your damn regular voice. This is Whataburger, not a YouTube channel.

  “Everybody Everybody” by Black Box is now playing in this Whataburger. I have loudly declared, “all hail Martha Wash”. I’m of the generation of gays that still fiercely protect Ms Wash’s performance on Black Box, Seduction, and C+C Music Factory records. The model in the Black Box videos can’t sing. At all.

  I’ve been taking the Wrangler off road today. There are some great trails in my favorite part of SE Arizona,, which is the Sonoita area. This new Jeep is doing very well on its inaugural weekend. #jeep

  I’m back to giving Brave a try across my various platforms. So far it’s been a very good experience.

  At the request of work, I’ve been reposting the company posts on my LinkedIn profile. Since then, the number of text messages from”the CEO” has increased from never before to at least a half dozen a day. Tip? Don’t tie any phone numbers to your LinkedIn account. Second tip? Avoid LinkedIn if you can. I know, easier said than done.

  Someone might have said "Howdy, handsome" to the Immigration Checkpoint Officer last night. To be fair, he did have a mustache and the grin afterwards was worth it.
