After university I was looking for any part time work I could find. This was in 2007-2008, so the job market wasn’t particularly good in the UK. Ended up at a company that did over the phone charity donations. I wasn’t working for a specific charity, it was a company hired by charities to make cold calls. Called a lady who said she was going through chemo and lost her job recently, although she really would love to help a children’s hospital, she couldn’t afford it. Asshole manager is listening in on the call, makes a hand motion and mouths to me “keep pushing, it’s just excuses”. I apologized for taking up the ladies time and said I hoped her treatment goes well. Hung up, took off the headset and walked out the door. One of the best decisions I’ve made in my life!

If every part of a ship is replaced one by one, is it still the same ship?

Maybe a dumb question… if I used a DisplayPort to HDMI 2.1 adapter, would I get 4K at 120Hz on the Steam Machine and my LG CX tv?

He made a deleted scene from the film in Fortnite, ironically I watched it tonight at a friends place… it was not good and just made me sad.

I agree the Dano and Lillard comments are probably a part of it… but also the “Fortnite Kill Bill” shit definitely didn’t help. He’s always been a questionable human being and I grew older and lost interest with him, be into feet all you like dude, but he seems totally disconnected from society for a while. Also his hyping of the Weinstein’s back in the day 😬

The Commitments

My Girl…. BEEEEEES!

This is how I handle my server, I have an older Mac Mini with a SSD and 16GB of RAM running Proxmox. I’ve got a Debian VM for Docker stuff (all pretty lightweight containers right now), a VM with Debian for a remote VS Code environment and LXC’s for Plex and PiHole. I also wanted to learn about NixOS, so I fired up a VM and installed it to test it out. I will say, I want to learn more NixOS… that’s not an easy or simple solution! Awesome OS and I love the concept, but you really have to be dedicated to learn the syntax and maintain it!

Tokyo, Hakone and Kyoto, more time in Osaka. Went 2 years ago for our honeymoon and I fell in love with Japan. Kyoto especially, sitting down by the river, drinking a high ball I bought from the Lawsons and just vibing was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!
