Has anyone tried turning the government off and on again?

Guess it's time to call it a weekend...

Why host your Git repos in the cloud when you've got a 6-node Raspberry Pi Kubernetes cluster sitting on your desk? 🤷 Video 3 is live — deploying Gitea on bare-metal K8s with Talos Linux. youtu.be/UK5siIFChqk #Kubernetes #Homelab #Gitea #SelfHosted

Delete a Kubernetes pod --> your data is gone. Just dropped a video showing how to fix this with NFS persistent storage on Raspberry Pi. youtu.be/UxZlCho7-KI #Kubernetes #Homelab

Just launched a new Kubernetes series on YouTube Building a complete K8s cluster from scratch: storage, monitoring, CI/CD, security, and more. No managed services. Episode 1 (Cluster Build): youtu.be/Qt4FfbWn55o #Kubernetes #DevOps

Upgraded one of my computers from Windows to Omarchy today. I'm doing what I can to protest. I only have one machine left that's running Windows, and there's no reason for it to be. By the end of the year I will be Windows free. Then it's off to moving away from Office 365.

My wife says I can't do it this year. 😢

@beccafarsace.bsky.social do you ever shoot on film? I’m looking for a decent film camera for my wife. Got any pointers? Thanks

How embarrassing, recommended for me is Windows 11 for seniors and Windows 11 for Seniors in Large Print. :( What did I do to hurt you Amazon?

Looking for advice from the masses. There's a position open in my company that I just saw on LinkedIn. It would be a single step up for me. Should I let the recruiters and hiring manager know that I'm interested in it?

Every 5 seconds while watching my wife use a Mac, "It's not a touch screen"

"The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil."

Working on Tome Town v1.1 based on your feedback! Markdown syntax highlighting, better search, and performance improvements coming soon. Building in public is the best way to learn iOS development

What movie do you consider perfect?

Awesome post.

I feel stupid announcing this, but I think it has more of an effect if I do: I cancelled Disney, Hulu, and ESPN+. And I plan to shoplift Andor season 2 when it comes to Blu-ray.

14 years ago I went to the first //build/ conference. It was great and wonderful and I actually talked to people in the hotel and at the conference. The sessions were up my alley and I learned a lot. Miss those days...

What's with companies that make hand over fist money and they lay off a ton of employees. We need a worker's bill of rights here.

What?!? This is messed up. Found guilty but doesn't have to atone for the crime? This reality sucks.

Quick question for PDF/EPUB readers: what's the ONE thing that drives you crazy about existing reading apps? Building Tome Town taught me that sometimes the biggest problems are the simplest ones. Your answers might become v1.1 features! #PDFReader #IndieApp #UserFeedback

Such a loss. Time Capsule was a great product. I got one on @snazzylabs.com recommendation and haven't regretted it. Time to make room on my NAS for Mac backups.

To everyone who's downloaded Tome Town this week - thank you for supporting an indie developer learning iOS! Your feedback is literally shaping what I build next. What's the most frustrating thing about your current PDF reading setup?

I bet it'll be called the iPhone 26.

My first iOS app just went live! Built Tome Town in 4 weeks while learning iOS - a simple PDF/EPUB reader with no subscriptions or tracking. $4.99 once, yours forever. From iOS beginner to shipped app in a month apps.apple.com/us/app/tome-... #IndieApp #iOSDev #ShipIt

Health insurance is a scam. $375 for a chest X-ray and insurance covers a whopping $56.25 of it.

Real Genius!

Here's a valuable prompt starting point for any business idea you may have, "please conduct a 'pre-mortem'." Find out how it can fail and use that to determine if it's worth going down the rabbit hole. What do you think?

#booksky I have a ton of EBooks (PDF and Epub). What do you all use to manage them? I currently just have a folder called "Books" and a note pad with current locations but I'm looking for an app that can do better. Suggestions?

I keep seeing a hashtag for VSS365 and I have to remind myself that Visual Source Safe is dead and buried. There is no VSS365!

OH!! This is what everyone was doing this morning.

Spaceballs was my least favorite Mel Brooks film.

RAID0 because all other RAIDs are for wimps!

With Windows 10 EOL in October and macOS 26 looking like Windows Vista. I have to say I'm happier than ever that I have Fedora on my laptop. 😆
