Every time I play Skyrim:

“You are carrying too much to be able to run”

Inventory:

• …
• 30 “Solution of Strength” potions

Me: But I might need those later.

It’s delicious.

I like to mix whipped cream vodka with strawberry-watermelon flavored Mio, and it’s distinctively red. I’m gonna start calling it “Health Potion”.

Ask your doctor if it’s right for you.

Same. That’s when my original account was created here.

Ugh, I wish I could add “reasons” for my user blocks as well as have the dates I blocked them available. Would make this easier. But yeah, Striker is in there.

I’m inclined to believe it’s part of the “group”. Every post I can see of it’s is a question which is the same thing seen with the others in the list here; none of them have a single post that uses a declarative statement as the post title. That’s more than a little sus given the context here.

Regardless, I tend to block accounts that I feel camp out and/or abuse the “ask” communities.

Ah, the War5oldier account is banned on its home instance and I guess they just didn’t re-use the name with another alt.

The only one of those that wasn’t in my blocks was raptor, but I guess I didn’t notice them as much. Comparing raptor to one of the others in that list, yeah, the posting is pretty similar.

Yep, I recall blocking at least Dan for the same reason as the other two. Not sure about the other one but can’t recall seeing posts from them anytime recently so probably did.

Are two of them “commander graves” and “war soldier”?

Because I noticed similar and blocked them ages ago

how goes the mesh

By the wayside LOL.

That was a last winter project that kind of plateaued. I keep my everyday carry node with me and I built that NWS/EAS Alerter relay a month or two ago, but I’ve mostly been working on getting my PV system installed since spring.

Photovoltaic / Solar power installation.

“Solar system” just sounds weird when I say it.

Is it the ordering of the options? I just put them in top to bottom, left to right (except the free space) as I thought of them.

I started to do a 5x5 one but the text ended up being too small to read, and I couldn’t think of that many things to fill it in with.

I finally pulled the trigger and bought/installed the PV system I’ve been wanting for 10+ years.

It was a good chunk of upfront money for something I feared would end up being a midlife crisis purchase*. I only have it partially installed (all DIY as time allows) but we’ve been running the whole house from it several days a week and have already seen significant savings on the electric bill (especially since the first week I had it hooked in was a heat wave).

*It’s not not a midlife crisis purchase, lol, but it’s also more useful than a sports car.

Sadly (and similarly anecdotally) yes.

Toggling airplane mode basically “turns off and on again” your phone’s network interfaces, resets the routing table, and, I think, flushes the DNS caches. I don’t have the problem so much with wi-fi unless I roam between my main and guest networks which use different DNS records for some of my self-hosted apps. (e.g. the “internal” DNS record gets resolved on main wifi, gets cached, and then is inaccessible on guest wifi until the cached record expires).

Mainly, I just toggle the cellular data since my primary issue is that sometimes calls/texts stop working without notice.

I try for at least 2 hours a day, excluding sleeping.

Usually that’s in the form of puttering around outside doing yardwork, working on whatever my summer/winter project is, and/or taking the dogs for a walk. It’s difficult in the winter but the other 3 seasons are pretty easy to keep the habit alive

However you choose to spend that offline time, I highly recommend a daily dose of it. Been doing that for a few years now, and my mental health has improved dramatically. The world isn’t nearly as horrible as social media makes it out to be.

I let it be, even if the person is still alive. Anyone can “allege” anything against anyone. Plus, if the friend is a devout follower of someone genuinely controversial, then there’s already a good chance I’m not that close to them and would be cutting them out of my life anyway.

This week was nice but we had one last week and one’s forecast for this coming week, though I don’t think it’s going to be as bad as the one we got first week of July.

Glad I got my PV system installed before the first one hit. A/C just feels cooler when it’s free 😎

Heatwaves notwithstanding, still prefer summer. I hate shoveling snow, I hate being cold, I hate that people deal with slick roads every year but still can’t learn to drive (or NOT drive) on them, etc. My only complaints about summer are the humidity and mosquitos.

Hey, I may be old and yelling at clouds, but…what was that third thing?

I hear that. Ironically, I really appreciated the cloud cover when I was up on the roof two weeks ago installing my panel array. Those clouds were okay but now that I’m done, I’d appreciate if they only come out at night lol.

It’s really messing with my sense of time realizing that Rosa Parks (2005) outlived John Ritter (2003).
