Apple Mac mini M4 Pro with #macOS Golden Gate
This is basically light web browsing. Performance team needs to get on this. Glad my MacBook Pro is still on Tahoe 26.5.1

Updated to #gotosocial 0.22.0-rc4. Hope this is good enough for gold! My instance is now sitting in jail waiting for #fedi relays to send the messages again…

George Washington can slowdown his grave spinning… 😵‍💫 https://arstechnica.com/health/2026/06/military-branches-restore-flu-shot-requirement-after-virus-swept-through-base/

To get in better shape I’ve started some basic calisthenics and now it all hurts. 😣

Today’s easy routine:
wall pull-ups 2x sets
Jackknife squats 2x sets

😮‍💨

Talk about bad flashbacks. Remember trying to get your mouse, sound-blaster, cd-rom, and your IPX network card working at the same time to play some video games in DOS? 😑

I think beta2 of #macOS Golden Gate might have some kind of problem with appstoreagent. It’s just eating cpu with dasd and analyticsd.

Maybe indexing is just rebuilding again?

Running the new betas now. Less bad & more good. Need more time to explore…

I think something very annoying about #mastodon is there isn’t a universal rich text format. I have better control of the look of text in #iMessage…

I guess it isn’t an easy thing to fix. Even declaring a bunch of html tags are ok would run into other limitations like post sizes being limit to 500 characters. It’s an endless onion of things that would need to get tweaked so I can make something <b>bold</b>?

Tonight is a #Korean fried chicken night. Chicken getting picked up by brother-in-law and we are preparing the booze. 😎 #Chimaek

Paid and submitted renewal stuff online for Global Entry late last night. Tonight I got an approval without need for interview. I can only imagine somewhere deep in a datacenter (aws us-east-1) an AI approved me:

The #Apple Mac Studio Ultra at 96GB is not available in a reasonable timeframe. If ordered today in June…will not get until October. The demand is still unreal. Very irritating.
The DGX Spark is tempting… this memory crunch is peak annoying.

I watched a video on YouTube about ceiling fans. I gained more esoteric trivia to be “fun” at parties. 😂

Beautiful job the #reddit folks did with their toolbar on #iOS 27 beta. 😂

I’ve not seen this happen on any other app in the beta. (probably not their fault but I find it amusing)

seems #gotosocial 0.22.0-rc3 is working really well with relays. one thing I'm seeing is restarting my server and being down for 30-60 seconds will cause some relays to put you in a 'stale' state. a new finicky thing to deal with I guess.

It’s like /etc/hosts is getting so many features it’s practically DNS! #systemd #linux

Just had an upper endoscopy. Dr says it all looks fine. Just normal levels of inflammation. They took tissue samples (biopsies) to check for cancers etc. overall was pretty quick and painless procedure. Nothing to worry about if your doctor wants you to do.

@SolSoCoG Question about https://rel.re: I'd like to get dusty.ninja to subscribe for more traffic, is there some special account or something needed to do on my part? When I subscribe with the new 0.22.0-rc2 I get "not yet" approved status.

Installed 0.22.0-rc2 of #GotoSocial and added like 8 relays that are supposedly open. So far just one has accepted my connection. 😕 I wonder how many I should subscribe to so my server feels less isolated.
