I had this exact conversation with my doctor this spring. Fortunately I knew where my childhood vaccination records were stored (most were handwritten and nurse signed on card stock) and was able to verify. And have the clinic make copies for my record. This is not most folks' experience, though.

Fired up the 3D printer for the first time since pre- #mmsmoa to prototype the @mmsmoa.bsky.social #mmsMidway tchotchke. True to form, the beast "just worked" having been off for four months. Folks might hate on the old Ender, but this "good one" keeps me happy. Tchotcke reveal coming in October!

Hooray! It's Labor Day!

Any #intune #sccm peeps out there that deal with IRS Audits and manage #cis baselines? Looking for government folks. Got some questions.

It is illegal for Trump to print money with his face on it. It is illegal *and unconstitutional* for the USPS to decide who gets mail, including mail ballots. These are not 'critics say'. These are objective facts. News organizations need to say so. Their JOB is to state facts.

I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.

For some time now there's been a Flock camera in a location on my drive to a nearby town. Last time I was through there (about two weeks ago), all appeared normal. Yesterday we ran some errands in said town and noticed it had been disabled (intentionally with red spray paint). My heart smiled.

Get one of these if you've been on the fence with ESPHome or want to try something fun and easy to use!

ESPHome is now accessible to everyone, wether you've been with us for years or just learned about ESPHome. Try out the brand new starter kit and learn how to make your own smart home devices. Now available worldwide.

Somewhere at my folks' place is a picture of me with a saw just like this. I believe it was maybe my second birthday party.

I was super fortunate to receive an early access kit and honestly the process of using it helped clarify a TON of detail about how the whole ESPHome/ESP32 ecosystem works! Plus it's super cute and fun to play around with!
