I moved into this building in August 2025 and, for the first time, visited the gym. All equipment is super nice and has #Apple GymKit integration. Also, a bunch of specialized shoulder, chest, back, etc., equipment to fix posture. I should have visited earlier… oh well. Better late than never. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ah this is much better, just need a `killall` loop! #macOS Golden Gate beta2

`screen -S kill zsh -c "while sleep 5; do killall -9 appstoreagent; done"`

Super irritating to get some community help on some application and need to get on #Discord or #Matrix. Can be ~5min of updates and clicking new agreements before you can even start looking for a chatroom and post a question.

yeah... #firstworldproblem

#WatchOS 27 beta thinks my restroom sink is LOUD when I wash my hands. I thought they fixed this before? Regression?

My wife got talked into trying some #durian. We each had a piece, and it’s actually good. But damn, it smells like farts and gasoline to me. Once you’re actually chewing it, the smell goes away, but as soon as you’re done, it comes right back.

I’d describe the experience as having a great dessert at an outdoor café, except every now and then a gust from an open sewer blows through. You can’t help but wonder why they don’t just move somewhere else.

Now starting to worry that I won’t be able to smell it but I’ll walk around town and people will think I have 💩 in my pants or something. #Hawaii

I honestly think Content Warnings on the #Fediverse are overused to the point that they’re useless. People will put their Docker setup or a recipe behind a Content Warning for some reason. I’ve configured my client to ignore those warnings and always show posts. But every once in a while, my #Phanpy cookies are lost and my settings reset… and I’m reminded how useless CWs are. #ContentWarnings

Now kicking myself for not ordering a #Mac Studio Ultra last week. I could have just cancelled if I changed my mind between now and OCTOBER when it was expected to ship… 🤦🏼‍♂️.

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. 😂
