The entire plot of the Jack London story "The One Thousand Dozen" from The Faith of Men pivots on eggs being $1 apiece

Especially this food. Like it is stupidly easy to make, esp now that air fryers are so common.

Washing your hands won't stop this but it sure as heck will slow it down. Wash your hands A LOT

Proliant N40L. Find one with caddies, swap the CD drive out for a SSD on that connection and put four fat drives in and install Truenas (the BSD based one).Super cheap, low power, fast enough to stream from files stored there, and extremely quiet.

Also I've found some games that work fine in Wine under X11 and not in Wayland

Find the site where the guy debugged it, then he said it was an OK game. Not great but on par with most Atari games of the time.

Total Annihilation

Star Flight, 1986(?). Huge universe, multiple alien races, reputational, on two 360k floppy disks, and a great story too.

And it is just the beginning of August.

 

Big changes...shuttle buses, payment, etc. I don't even go to Zilker any more except for Barton Springs since it's impossible to park there and there are many local parks around anyway.

 

Are we ashamed? Or are we entertained?

 

Just drove down Chicon and saw some "Neighborhood - 25 mph" signs, which is great if anyone would enforce them.

They used to have real cannons for the 1812 Overture, which was awesome

 

Zoneminder is a pretty solid setup for IP security cameras, and the zmninja app is really nice too. I had tried it years ago but got back to it recently with some sketchy IP cameras. I just put them in their own VLAN, no Internet access, Zoneminder does motion detection and event recording, and so far I'm quite pleased with it.
