In my friend circle we will invite each other to stuff and ask “are you up or down?” Then schedule them regardless of response.

I tried AntennaPod but went back because of Android Auto. I just found this showing how to get AntennaPod on AndroidAuto!

I used to work at a company that provided tech support for a few Canadian Tires. They don’t hire nearly enough staff. They try to make up for it with high amounts of automation. Frequently people will come and steal from them because there aren’t enough staff to stop that. This causes the inventory system to think there is more stock than there is. Because the reduced staff, they don’t frequently manually check their stock so it can be quite some time before it becomes aparent.

I tried that one time. I went over budget and sent a really nice gift. I didn’t receive a gift myself. Then my recipient reported that I didn’t send a gift. I got banned.

I never really saw the appeal, but my friends keep wanting to play it. There is so much waiting. I’m just bored most of the time.

I have a 2060 super. It has all the performance I currently need. I would like to buy a non nvidia graphics card but I can’t justify buying a new card for that reason alone.

Plus it can support Nvidia out of the box.

When I was in Grade 9 we discovered how to make a smoke bomb with Potassium Nitrate and sugar. You can buy Potassium Nitrate at drug stores under the name “saltpeter”. Potassium Nitrate is an oxidizing agent so releases oxygen as it burns. Sugar is naturally flammable but puts itself out. Together it burns hot and releases a lot of smoke. For Halloween we made 2.5 lbs of it and lit it in my back yard. It filled the yard with smoke.

In Grade 10 we tried to outdo ourselves. We found a much cheaper source for Potassium Nitrate at hydroponic stores. We made a 25 lb smoke bomb. We made a 4 minute timer from an alarm clock we got at a thrift store and it filled a park with smoke.

In Grade 11 we had a reputation to uphold. We took a collection from some of our classmates and got enough for a 250 LB smoke bomb. My friend’s parents were out of town and he offered his house for making the smoke bomb. A lot of people showed up. We didn’t plan for this but somehow alcohol showed up and there was a lot of underage drinking. The sugar has to be melted on the stove. We were making batch after batch of the smoke bomb and dumping it in a garbage bin in the middle of the kitchen on a dolly. We had only made about 20 LBs when some drunk girl came in and turned up the stove temperature. It lit prematurely which lit up the entire garbage can. We were instantly blind with the amount of smoke and had to leave the building. The fire department was called. The fire went up into the attic. We did about $18,000 worth of damage to the house.

My primary address is 127.0.0.1.

We have some air gapped environments. VMware have asked us to install vRealize to monitor the CPU usage. Then they want us to export a report from vRealize every month and upload it to VMware so they can bill us accordingly.

My management is dead set on getting off VMware as quickly as possible. I’ve spent a lot of the past year and a half setting up test labs and reporting on these potential replacements:

• oVirt and RHVC
• Nutanix
• scale
• Azure Stack HCI
• VX rail
• Harvester and Rancher
• A variety of qemu wrappers

None of us are very happy about it but it looks like Azure Stack HCI is the winner so far.

Anything with full grain leather and is resoleable. I have some Iron Rangers by Red Wings I’m happy with. I selected them because they were local to me.

I briefly used it. It connects you to all of your neighbors. It’s good for knowing what’s going on in your community.

Interesting. Thanks!

Thanks for your insight. I’ll check them out.

I believe I have been taking good care of these shoes. I keep them on cedar shoe trees. I wash them with saddle soap, conditioner them, and polish them about once a month. I just wear them a lot. The reason I think it’s time to replace the strand is because of a tiny hole. Feeling in behind there is about a dime sized area where the leather is very thin. I am continuing to wear these but I think a hole is inevitable at this point. A cobbler told me he could put a leather patch behind the hole but it wouldn’t likely last much longer even with that.

I believe these shoes have served me well. I’ve worn out the initial leather sole, plus two rubber soles. These have cost me about $85/year which is even cheaper then when I was buying the wallmart garbage shoes. They have looked great the whole time.

I have some suede seats in my car. They need to be cleaned. I see quite a few products on the market but I’m scared to try them.

I run Transmission on a VM that is permanently connected to a VPN. It dumps the completed files on an NFS share. I’m open to trying something different. Transmission seems like the best option.

I had the same experience. It took a whole summer of searching to find a company that would do it.

The first 4 HVAC companies I called told me the same thing. They said I had to have a back up natural gas or resistance based electric heater. They don’t know what they are talking about. My current heat pump can operate down to -30 C. The coldest it ever gets here is -16 C and that’s only for a few hours per year.

His videos and others like it inspired me to keep looking when when all the HVAC companies kept telling me it wasn’t possible.
