Post: Micro The RSS feed for Post: Micro.

  • Twelve years ago today, an adorable man smiled at me and simply said โ€yesโ€โ€ฆand weโ€™ve been together ever since. Happy anniversary to my Friend, my Rock, my beautiful Pookie. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

  • Helped a friend set up his new Nintendo Switch…the OLED model…and now I want to buy one… ๐ŸŽฎ๐Ÿ˜ญ

  • I feel like I just moved heaven and earth to get my Apple TV remote working with my Sonos Beam…but in the end, restarting the remote is what fixed it. Also, the absurdity of that just struck me: why are remotes to the point we have to be able to restart them…? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

  • Came all the way out onto the pier for some therapy. ๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ๐Ÿ“บ #TV #BobNewhart #Chicago

  • Wait, waitโ€ฆdonโ€™t tell meโ€ฆ? ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ“ป #npr

    The set of NPR's "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me"
  • I sometimes feel like I’m the only person still using RSS feeds to stay up to date on news; it’s been working great for 10+ years but I think I need to modify my approach with filters: I really don’t care about new Google products, given most will be dead within 5 years. ๐Ÿคฃ

  • Goodness, something is clearly going on today with dynamic advertising injection in podcasts b/c I do not speak any Spanish; it’s not that I don’t want to learn French or Spanish but the only languages I’m good at are computer languages. ๐Ÿคฃ

  • Throwing in the towel for the day, our Jenkins build server is misbehaving. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

  • Made it just a few weeks before the next one come out but I finally beat Zelda: Breath of the Wild! ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Cut-scene from the end of the game, with Link and Zelda looking at each other.
  • In the past week, I deployed an update to a back-end service and started the rollout of an update to my desktop application. Two things: one, if you told me Iโ€™d be working on Windows Forms in 2023, Iโ€™d have laughed at youโ€ฆand two, I need more coffee. ๐Ÿคชโ˜•๏ธ Happy Friday!

  • Online advertising seems to get getting worse, at least for me. Iโ€™m not sure what online data collection profile thought it would be a good idea to advertise farming equipment to me but I donโ€™t need a tractor. ๐Ÿคฃ

  • I think Iโ€™m done with NewEgg.com, who ships a hard drive like this, free to flop around the box?!? ๐Ÿ˜ค This is utterly unacceptable.

    Hard drive, in a box, without much packaging.
  • Well itโ€™s only taken 5+ years but Iโ€™m finally going to fight the water boss in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildโ€ฆ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

  • As soon as I dropped my internet service with Charter / Spectrum, they started sending me a massive amount of junk mail. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ Why would I want to sign back up with yโ€™all if you keep having outages in my area on an almost weekly basis???

  • Interesting there are a bunch of online sales of FitBit stuff, especially given the fact FitBit has been going offline a lot lately… ๐Ÿค”

  • Just filed my federal taxes… ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ One question: why the *&%$ do they make this so bloody difficult?! If the government already knows what I owe and is just checking my paperwork, why don’t they send me a bill or send me a check?! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ’ฐ

  • Finished reading: The House Witch 3 by Delemhach ๐Ÿ“š
    โ˜…โ˜…โ˜†โ˜†โ˜†

    I read the first two books earlier this year and enjoyed them…so when this book was released yesterday, I dug right into it…and didn’t stop until I finished. ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿฅฑ It’s a cute read, with one rather sad moment but still good.
