@todd I am so torn on what to do re: watches. Right now I have an AW Ultra 2, which I use mostly for running and sleep tracking, and then mechanical watches during the day. At the moment thinking to just keep the Ultra 2 until it dies and then assess the Garmin options.

@chrishubbs.com I’m pretty sure my parents had no idea I was doing this. I was a true believer in the cause. I’m almost 50 now and still unlearning so much.

@ReaderJohn I looked it up: Schumer is almost 20 years younger than Chuck Grassley, and Jeffries is almost 20 years younger than Schumer. Jeffries has been around long enough that he seems trained on the leadership style of Schumer and Pelosi rather than the tone of the new generation.

@JohnBrady Co-sign. I’ve been on Fastmail for a decade now. Would recommend.

@jeremymdoan.info The trouble with coming up with dinner ideas is that the family wants dinner Every. Single. Day.

@ReaderJohn Looks interesting, but a $200 paywall to get access? Too rich for my blood.

@chrishubbs.com This is true! OTOH, MH’s whole schtick was about how they were a beachhead in a pagan land, so…

@chrishubbs.com Not actually moving until next summer after my daughter graduates from HS. Working for Boeing, remotely from Iowa until then.

@chrishubbs.com You’re too kind. Thank you!

@jbonewald.bsky.social Congrats on the win! As a Cubs fan I’m annoyed for lots of reasons, but I know how good it feels to have your team finally win one. Enjoy!

@manton I think the summary field makes sense. I’ll give it a try.

@manton I was wrong - it doesn’t go to Bluesky. It does go into the email. Thanks for the info on the summary field. I’ll look into that.

@aljawf.bsky.social I struggle with this one. I don’t know that I could manage to be a politician and maintain my Christian commitments. But if others can, that seems preferable to a world where there are no Christians involved in politics.

@manton Is there some reason that body text doesn’t show up on the micro.blog timeline for an audio post? The body text is cross-posted out to Bsky/Mastodon, but doesn’t show up on micro.blog.

@joshuapsteele I’ve been a “or lack thereof” guy for a long time. Hoping to use a cross-country move next year as an opportunity for reset, though I know just a change of locale won’t change a lifetime of habit.

@patrickrhone She’s a New Yorker already!

@amerpie Hotttt

@chrishubbs.com Love this!

@dwalbert I will make place to put it. :-) I’m not sure what all I’d do with it, but I’d find a place to put it.

@chrisheck Just got done looking at it. Didn’t have the old cards. Decided against it as it had been repainted somewhere after decommissioning and, well, I want one that feels like a library, not like country kitsch.

@judasthaddaeus.bsky.social Ah, that makes sense, and yep, that enabled me to get up to hot, fresh, and patched. Thanks!

@judasthaddaeus.bsky.social Prompted me to finally upgrade my one server to the latest LTS version. A little confused that the php website says the distro libraries should have the latest patched versions but apt is only getting me up to 8.5.4…

@chrishubbs.com There are so many layers going on. I’m gonna be thinking about it for days.

@ReaderJohn If CC and Angel could get onto the same roster I think they could anchor a legendary dynasty. They had real chemistry at the FIBA event.

@ablerism Aw thanks! I didn’t use Micro Studio - just recorded the audio using Piezo (a simple audio recording Mac app), did a very quick editing pass in Audacity, then uploaded to Micro.blog. It’s very unscripted, off-the-cuff… not sure why it seems like a good idea but I’m enjoying doing it.
