Edge of Tomorrow sequel is currently scrapped. Maybe in 3-4 years? Cruise needs to keep his aging on ice…

Setup daily backups of my #SQLite for my #gotosocial server. Backups go to S3 at the moment but I’ll add just archiving to a local path or maybe scp to a host? I dunno. Don’t need to make things too complicated.
I put the script on #Codeberg for others to use if they want.
TODO: add cleaning up old backups.

Found a sweatshirt to try out… 😂

FWIW I actually clicked the link for this ad on #Instagram and got a 504 gateway error.
Have not read either of these books in over 25 years. Maybe I should refresh my memory with a reread. #Iliad #Odyssey

I really hope #gotosocial gets hashtag blocking/muting soon. I could really clean up my timeline and follow more stuff I care about…
Ads in #WhatsApp might finally get people to move to #Signal?
Or are people too numb to take action against ads…?

ohmyz.sh (Oh my zsh) has an update of `omz shop` that opens a browser to shop for merchandise (it is nice projects are finding ways to get reimbursed for work imho). Another tidbit shared from @sdolan is the PR was done by #copilot on GitHub: https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/issues/13427 #zsh #linux
Just scarfed down a #Costco hotdog. Washed it down with Zero Sugar Coke. Glad the plague of Pepsi is over.
Looking forward to future ram glut from overproduction. We’ll all be able to have 1-2TB of ram on our desktops. Maybe even ECC will be in style again. 😎

I remember when John Giannandrea was hired at Apple. Internally, we were all hoping this would fix the giant mess that was Siri. So, 7 years later, he retires, accomplishing basically nothing. Siri is still trashy and perhaps even worse. Good riddance and I’d preferred him getting fired like Scott Forstall.

Ah yes Netflix making life more miserable for their customers. Great job everyone involved!

I watched a clip of ‘Big Bang Theory’ on YouTube and enjoyed it. What’s happening?
Wish there was more information on this. Seems thieves break into cars via back window, plug in a tablet, reprogram car computer, and press start button. Just drive away. No need for antenna amplifier for a key fob…

#GPU’s will be displaced in 2 years by #Quantum? Huh? They’ve not factored the number 15 yet…?

Got a bad cold in #Korea, so to avoid getting my in-laws sick, I’ve been quarantined in a guest room for ~3 days now. Probably 1-2 more before heading to a hotel near the airport, then home. Very annoying development for a short ~2-week trip.
Now I want to eat a #hotdog.
“What is the most flavorful way to cook a hotdog?”
Really good list of options and variations of hotdog cooking discussed on #Reddit

Source article is also pretty great read how social media is really the context for this abuse:

So my entire career I was basically ready for retirement? Hmmm…
