Haven’t used Amazon in two years. I don’t even have an account anymore. Doesn’t stop them from sending me emails 3x/day to sign up again. I try to shop local, but I do have to go to shitty corp stores for some stuff.

I was put on hydroxychloroquine a few months ago and it’s great, but having a formal diagnosis now is making it scary.

You’re good. I appreciate the advice. :)

My doctor has given me all sorts of info on it. I was looking for more first hand account kinds of things.

I work as a helpdesk tech and I always say that I killed a task in task manager when writing up ticket notes.

There are so many great expressions in the crowd in the last pic

Omg thank you. I was really struggling lol. An hour in command line was hell.

Any tips on installing tailscale? It seems kind of straightforward, but I’ve read posts on different forums that Linux noobs haven’t been able to get it to work even with the article’s instructions.

From what I gather it’s mostly commands konsole ?

Damn, his work as Duncan was absolutely stellar. Sad to see talent like that go. :(

I used to raise show chickens with my little sister (silkies, a du’uccle, and some buff Orpingtons.) and they were a delight.

Our silkies and the du’uccle died tragically and my grandmother, without consulting anyone, got us 3 ducklings to try to cheer us up.

Of course, they imprinted on me immediately and I became obsessed. Now I have my own place and my flock of ducks is now at 11. Only one of the original 3 is left, and he teaches all the new birds the ropes and helps me train them to use a ramp. He also dotes on any babies and is the best dad and protector. When he is in “dad mode” we call him Big Papa Tony because he is HUGE (30lbs) and his name is Antonio.

Ducks are absolutely disgusting, but I enjoy them far more than chickens. Chickens are so much cleaner and easier to care for, but all of my fave pets have ended up being ones that are tricky to care for. 😅

Can’t remember the exact price per kwh, but I pay around $120/month in the summer and about $75-100/month in the winter. The winter varies so much based on how many heat lamps I have to provide for my ducks and how many heated water bowls they use. Last winter I had two lamps set up for a while then went back down to one. They used two heated bowls a day, but I have new birds this year, so they may use more.

This is all in Pennsylvania, btw

Got really drunk with some other folks at a wedding reception in a park. It had one of these. There were about 10 of us crammed on it and two other people were spinning it. We went flying and it was incredible. 10/10 would recommend.

Oh shit, I haven’t done SSH tunnelling since college lol. Brings back memories. I’ll talk to my friend and see if he wants to try it.

Not yet. We are gonna try Tail scale at some point, but we don’t want to do any more tech work today lol. We’re too exhausted

Gulping seamonkeys by the gallon, my tummy feel crazy

My friend is insisting we play this way. I just want to get an actual server, but my friend is resisting even though I offered to pay for it

I don’t have a personal computer that is capable of it. When my laptop died, I went for a steamdeck instead lol

I’ll have my friend check the server.properties.

As for port forwarding, my friend has tried to set it up multiple times over the past year for different things and he can’t get it to work. Idk what exactly he’s doing and every time I offer to help, he doesn’t want help even though I work in IT and this shit is part of my job. I’ve offered troubleshooting tips for this whole thing and he hasn’t been receptive.

We’ve tested both and neither work. We quadruple checked the IP. Windows is the host. I’ll have my friend double check his firewall settings to be safe.

Hell yeah white baby
