So far today I’ve watched a close end to Ohio State - Indiana, a nailbiter in OT for Florida State - Miami, seen Auburn upset #1 Georgia, and BYU survive a last-ditch attempt by Notre Dame.

My team, Nebraska, didn’t start until 20 minutes ago. No way I’m gonna stay awake for this one.

Ran the prices and for this week’s business trip it would’ve been about the same price for me to Uber to/from the airport as to drive my own car and park it there all week and hike in from the long-term lot. I’ve been driving/parking at CID for 25 years. Would be a hard habit to break.

Ran the new micro.blog blog audit. (Thanks @manton!) Not as bad as I feared it might be. 20 years of posts… links gonna rot.

I’ve got a mini PC running Debian for my home media and utility server. VNC has always been flaky as a remote desktop option. Got a GL.inet Comet KVM yesterday. It’s super-slick. Tailscale native. Connect USB and HDMI to the PC and can connect to the PC from anywhere I have a browser. Neat.

The Iowa Hawkeyes playing in Seattle tonight against U of W, didn’t start until 8pm central. Fortunately for me, the Hawks are up 27-0 before halftime, think I can safely go to bed. Or switch over to the Iowa State game if ESPN ever lets them start it.

Don’t know that I intended to run a half marathon when I started out today. Wasn’t really properly fueled, kinda dragged at the end. Still, a nice accomplishment for a Friday afternoon.
