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/
When I first kicked this off a week ago, I expected to be posting WAY more about it, but life has most definitely gotten in the way.
But work continues on my game, Headlights, around family and work work. I'm wrestling with drawing intersections and traffic signals (both a nice visual and also an important obstacle) and hope to have a new video soon.
Thanks to those who have backed the project and the many more who have shared it and a sent kind words.

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?
OMG new obsession just dropped.
An OS built on Swift, and it looks very tasteful.
Running the new betas now. Less bad & more good. Need more time to explore…

Took daughter to paddle boats today. Guy at the stand tells me “you need to leave a deposit”. I’m confused so I’m like I’m sorry but we gotta switch to English.
“You need to leave something here so we know you’ll return the boat. Like your house keys”. These are giant plastic paddle boats. I’m not sure how I would steal it even if I wanted to.
“Look man I’m gonna be real with you. I’m gonna forget you have these keys in five minutes.” He’s like no way man, we got a system. We have your phone number so we’ll call you if you leave them. Also I’m going to hand them back to you when you dock.
Go on the water, have a great time, forgot keys. Nobody calls me. End up at train station in Odense 30 minutes before train leaves. Grabs daughter and taxis across town, savoring the opportunity to say “leave the meter running” as I run out to grab keys.
Absolutely hilarious reaction from the kid when he sees me. “Oh no it happened didn’t it” as he sighs and sits down. Made me laugh so hard, this 19 year old being like “damn he called it”.
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.

One of the major perks of large language models is that we can now effortlessly rewrite all the software written in unusable, esoteric languages such as Rust back to C/C++
I watched a video on YouTube about ceiling fans. I gained more esoteric trivia to be “fun” at parties. 😂
