My little girl was accepted to university and after a tour today, decided to attend! She has an actual roadmap to what she wants to do, Lord willing, and has the ambition to pull it off. What a blessing!

@virtualwolf I’m convinced that proper food and lifestyle could solve about 90% of obesity, diabetes, and the myriad of other diseases that come with them.

I always forget, ifuse works so much better than gvfs. Moving data like a champ now.

Am I the only one who has problems rsyncing iPhone photos/videos to a NAS via usb? I always get I/O errors for some reason and after unplugging/plugging a hundred times, it eventually works.

It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a
statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious
to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look,
which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the
highest of arts. Every man is tasked to make his life, even in its details,
worthy of the contemplation of his most elevated and critical hour.
-- Henry David Thoreau, "Where I Live"

Alright, I just added some honey to the chili and I feel like I committed some kind of crime. It is excellent though, because it balanced out some of the spices and bitterness of the beer.

Kept watching this YouTube ad Operation Aurora | Hacking Google. It started off like an historic documentary about hacking and then proceeded to describe a major hacking event that affected Google in 2009. It was interesting, and of course it painted Google as the innovative hero at the end. They put human faces on Google and championed clever teamwork, but you shouldn't forget that these clever teams are building some of the most invasive and potentially freedom destroying tools in history.

As @mary and the pups were rolling around(playing) on the living room floor, it hit me that those two haven’t been apart a day since conception over five years ago.🐾

We’re having a chili cook-off at church this weekend and I think I’m going to enter an all veg recipe this time. Should prove a bit more challenging.

Sous vide on the cheap! Cooler, trough heater, thermostat. I need to do this again soon, but with solar panels.

So I have been using pass, the standard Unix password manager, together with PassFF and it is a working solution so far. I like that it is a simple program, and that it was easy to setup, but I wish it was even easier for normies. Qtpass works well for my wife because it has an easy password/username/url template.

@atyh I think you hit the nail on the head. People able to write good software are a very small percentage of the population. It would be pretty trivial to hunt most of them down and deduce who wrote what, even if it's by shadow profiles. Thankfully there are pretty massive collections already written. My gut tells me that they got to Linus a few years ago, but I'm afraid that we may already be undermined on the hardware side. What are your thoughts on prep? Everyone fend for themselves?

@atyh My friends, who are missionaries, had a very vibrant church community in Russia, but they recently had to relocate to Kazakhstan. Things must have been really bad for them to do that.

The Greatest Beer Run Ever was pretty good!
