  • My various UPS’s (uninterrupted power supply) weren’t cheap, especially the giant one powering my server rack, but every time my street has an outage, I’m very happy I have them. πŸ”‹πŸ”ŒπŸ˜

  • Random Thought: Does anyone know how fast new books will show up in Bookshelves feature of Micro.Blog after they’re added into Open Library? πŸ“š

  • Slowly starting the process of moving my domains away from Google. 🀞🏻

  • ⌚️ Apple Watch Update: After it crashed at breakfast, I just got a “you’re almost out of battery” notification…and it’s only been three hours since I put it on. 🀬πŸͺ« I’m still paying for this piece of junk… πŸ˜±πŸ˜–

  • Another day, another issue with watchOS 10.1 on the Apple Watch Ultra v1. I have never been this disappointed in an Apple product before. ⌚️😱 Two hardware resets and the issues still persist.

  • 🎡 Yes, I know it’s too early for holiday music but it’s been a rough year…and it’s Cher, so the rules don’t apply. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

    Bring on the holiday music! πŸŽ„

  • He really does look rather regal here but I think he’s trying to lure me into a false sense of security; I still think Alex is upset about the continuing construction in the house. πŸ˜ΌπŸˆπŸ“·

  • πŸ“· Going on a walk during the lunch break always helps clear my head. πŸ™ƒ

  • 🍿 As it’s Halloween, of course we’re watching The Nightmare Before Christmas. πŸŽƒ

    Jack Skeleton looks at a giant snowflake he's holding in his hand, a screen grab from the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas.

    I suspect I’m going to start decorating for Christmas tomorrow; it’s been a rough year and I could use the extra “holiday” time. πŸŽ„

  • This has to be the buggiest version of WatchOS I’ve ever used. 😭 Even after an erase / reset, the battery is draining too fast. The heart rate complication doesn’t work anymore. Now I can’t get into the widgets, which means a restart. What is going on at Apple?! 😱

  • Took three weeks but the burial is over, the slide show is done, and everyone cried; I feel like I can finally start grieving now. πŸ’” On the plus side, I did get to hang out with my cousins today, which was lovely, along with some aunts and other family. 😁

    Goodbye Grandma, I’ll miss you always. ❀️

  • Random Thought: Yea, this sounds about right, once the price is outside of what most “normal” people would consider reasonable, piracy increases… πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ

    Screen grab of a Tweet from Tom Warren, with the following verbiage: if Apple TV, Netflix, and Disney+ keep raising prices then it will only force more people into piracy. It's already surprising how many in the UK use modified Fire TV sticks to access pirated TV shows and movies

  • Yup, he’s still not happy with the construction…it’s almost done but I can tell he’s plotting our downfall. πŸ˜ΌπŸ˜ΉπŸˆπŸ“·

  • It was just starting to feel like autumn but this week…not so much. πŸ‚

  • Alex is not amused by the construction going on in the house. πŸ™€πŸˆπŸ“·
