If you ever feel useless, just know that Edge is available for Linux on Debian and its forks.

I didn't realize winget was exclusive to Pro. I ran Windows 8, 8.1, and 10 Pro from launch day until I stopped using Windows altogether last year. A Windows 7 Home Premium license was significantly more expensive after Windows 8 launched at 40 bucks, and I needed an OS for my new gaming rig.

Oh, I know they're not connected to the internet. It was a joke. And it turned out her whole family was kind of a bunch of culty Christians. Like, the kind of people who would shout gibberish and call it speaking in tongues. She was a nice girl, but getting to know her family was an...experience. And it totally explained some things lol

Here it is on my Sequoia. At least the knobs are different shapes. Not at all good place for that.

Those plastic climate control knobs come off easier than you'd expect and are a pain to get back on.

Latte. I run Debian so this is Plasma 5. As I understand it, Latte doesn't work in Plasma 6.

I've considered this in the past, and I might toy around with it in the future once I get the motivation to

For the lolz, of course. Like, who is still using the XP start button in '25?

I'm 32 so I was a kid in the 2000s. XP represents a golden age of the Internet to me. A time when every YouTube channel looked different and any random MySpace profile you ended up on was probably playing MCR. Before you had to sell practically every scrap of info about yourself to use nearly any service, and Google wasn't visibly evil. Ads were mostly "Your friend's IQ was 44. Can you beat that??" because all the world's authoritarians were too old to care about the web. You could pretty reliably know you were talking to a person in a chat room, and you didn't have to do some kind of mental calculus to determine whether it was a bot trying to rob your grandma of all her money in Google Play cards. Pretty well no kid in the 2000s is safe these days. I'm sure most of us said the racial slur or the mental slur or had sexual relations with everyone's mother after getting shot in Halo. I'm safe. We never had Xbox Live lol But I played a lot of split screen Halo in the living room. Good, innocent times.

Rose tinted glasses and all that, but idk, I feel like we'll never achieve that again. Everyone was throwing everything at the wall and seeing what stuck. And the tech was kind of in a Goldilocks zone. Just powerful enough to be cool and exciting, but not so powerful that it gets scary.

Except for those damn PS2s being used for nuclear bomb guidance.

Hard running at the park leads to sleepy dogs.

 

Astrid has come out as a happy go lucky girl. Honestly, I'm so touched at how loving she is. Our other dog Sherlock has a strong affinity for my wife. Astrid is all about me. I should rename her Saran.

Her whole life has changed so much in the last few weeks. She is a wonderful dog. But oh, to see what those eyes have seen. I just wanna squeeze this baby tight and tell how loved she is.

Anyway, here's Sherlock being his weird self. I love this boy.

My wife and I just adopted her from the animal shelter yesterday. She is about 1 year old, weighs 35 pounds (though I think she may be a touch underweight), and she reeks. We can't give her a bath until the 25th because she was just spayed a few days ago and the glue can't get wet. So we've been wiping her. Hasn't helped the smell. She's also gonna be a mondo shedder.

But she's so so so sweet. She just walks up to you and plants her face in your lap and looks at you longingly. She is all about you.

When we took her out of her crate at the shelter, she was shaking scared. The shelter can be a terrifying place. It's so loud, and all the barking had her on edge. But her sweet nature came out within a few minutes. It's good knowing she will never go back to that place. I keep telling her that. Not that she understands English.

She doesn't know her name. She doesn't know any commands. She gets the idea of "come" and she seems to be housebroken. I say seems to be. We're taking her out a lot to get an idea of her schedule. We're going to put her through training as soon as it's offered for beginners again. Meanwhile, we're also going to try teaching some basic commands at home. We've been through lots of training with our two year old certified (ribbon, AKC certificate, and all) good boy Sherlock, and most of the classes are really about teaching you how to train your dog. Still, the classroom setting is really nice to have, and I love supporting local business.

Sherlock is really bored most days while we work. He needs a friend to keep him busy. So if we can do that and save a shelter dog at the same time, that just kills two birds with one stone. It really took her no time at all to warm up to him or our super social orange cat or us.

And Sherlock has the kind of star power that he really gets along with every dog. He was so shy and scared at first and everyone who knew him 10 months ago comments on how far he's come. He really did a great job of setting the tone for the meeting. I'm so proud of my boy.

She seems so happy to just have a quiet place.

I can't wait to bathe this smelly girl lol

After the shit week, I think I'm gonna take it easy and play lots of video games this weekend.

 

For context, my wife is always criticizing how I don't add enough salt to the dishes I cook. I also have no tats. She does.

But at least you can always add more salt lol
