All I want is 5 minutes with the heads of Chrome and GoDaddy to talk about SSL certs. Get your shit together, people. These g2 intermediary certs don't fucking work!

OK, What The Actual Fuck, Microsoft...

When you're ticked off and a friend sends you something to make you feel better. 🐑🔊

For those of you who have suffered for ages with all of Razer's RGB controls and bloatware, there is a better solution: openrgb.org Installed in seconds, found all my hardware, and handily set my preferences to "just one sold color, gorrammit!" using about 25MB of memory

This applies to my brother and my son as well!

My choice will surprise no one that knows me...

Mostly books that have worn out from multiple reads, and almost all of my current CDs . I went fully digital a few years ago and recently realized that was A Mistake, so I'm rebuilding the audio library.

Oof! Tough DnD session tonight, too many spellcasters in the bad guy ranks. Still having a lot of fun doing Dope Monk Shit™

Took the bike for a spin out to Vista House yesterday. Here's a look Eastward up the Gorge.

Restaurant I say "Rest-AU-Rant" in my head every time

Sometimes, you just gotta pull out all the stops

Now for RUSH, we go back a couple years earlier to Seth, my oldest stepbrother's best friend and a certified (certifiable?) genius. If he had grown up in SoCal he would have ended up at JPL building rocket engines, but coming from rural Oregon he turned his mind to cars and engine design instead.

First introduced to me by Art, the only Punk Rocker in Klamath Falls, Oregon. 1983.

Okay, I'll jump in Introduce yourself with five songs: Rush - Working Man Seatbelts - 7 Minutes AC/DC - Back In Black Queen - Can't Stop Me Now Led Zeppelin - Ramble On Hard to narrow it back down to songs, I've spent the last couple months listening to albums all the way through.

I showed up late to a game of Catan once, got bored and ended up creating the papercraft prototype for this:

It begins! Final assembly.

Neighbors begged us for some wifi access while they sort some bills, and now they're streaming TV too loud after 11pm after not doing that for months. And now here I am looking at the settings of my router's guest network contemplating shenanigans...

Cooked a 16# turkey. The full half of that bird going into the fridge says I went a tad overboard. Came out tasty though!

The Bird is in the Brine Thanks for the updated video! @altonbrown.bsky.social

For all my fellow Cowboy BeBop fans: Mai Yamane has a new album out! open.spotify.com/album/5DuWQs...

Shoutout to whatever genius decided that in DnD 2024 the best thing to give the Elementalist Monk at 6th level was "Fireball, But With Options". 20' Burst in 120' range, 3 x Martial Arts die damage in 1 of 5 flavors, DEX save for half. Costs 2 Focus Points. 'Cuz sometimes, ya just gotta blast 'em.

Up-dooting for Culture Pass mention. Check your local library for similar means of checking out museums and other exhibits for free!

This is what the Internet is for! Thanks to @lartist.bsky.social for making the world a weirder place!

Favorite Sophie Devereaux in action moment: tricks the mark into telling a delivery agent to hand a painting over to Sophie. Personal experience: walked in the back door of a casino with my tool box on a hand truck while waving to the guard, who didn't know me from Adam in a tee-shirt and jeans.

WIP: take two on the right-hand panel, the first attempt was a tad sloppy so I used it as a dye test, and boy oh boy did my use of Resolene as a resist work poorly - terrible coverage. I redid the right panel much cleaner, and put the FIRST coat of Resolene on that, plus a SECOND on the left.

More people need to be spreading this, so I'll do my part. Please take the time to watch this and pass it along. I know that everything around you is screaming for action, but if we want to really trip up the Chump, we need to keep it civil. Watch. Make videos. Report.

Age verification: I used to sling gasoline at $0.88/gallon and off-brand cigarettes at $0.88/pack

A lil' palette cleanser for all

Can't...stop...watching...

My Plans for the weekend...

For a city that has totally banned fireworks, it sure sounds like a fucking war zone around my place. At least three groups firing multi-burst mortars at low altitudes.

Waaaay too true for tonight's game! Even at 3rd level it seems I step into a fight, smack something once or twice and then take one hit that drops me to 1 or 2 HP, then a second one that drops me in the dirt. Gotta boost my DEX for AC bonus...

To truly experience the Uncanny Valley in a safe way, get a loaner car same model as daily driver. Everything is just subtly... wrong. Truly crappy audio out of same hardware. Couldn't for the life of me figure out why it was so bad unless someone had blown out a speaker partially.

Results of vehicle-repair shenanigans: Car: faulty trailer wiring harness fixed under warranty Motorcycle: tires need to be replaced, leaky thermostat housing, and general tune-up: $1350 Daaaaaang

Ditto!

Productive day: Tree acquired without it being soaked in the steady rain we've had all day, and decorated while watching //Scrooged// and munching on snacky-foods.

I sometimes wonder about my own DNA. I too am rarely sick and no broken bones, and my brother and my son have both proven impervious to being whacked in the skull by bar glass.

Just switched from bsky.social to my web domain for funsies. Self-verification, yet another reason to be here!

Co-napping Champions 2024

Great fun playing DnD tonight, playing a Sorcerer is a blast. Getting in 6 attacks per round is awesome as a caster.
