  1. Back in ~1991, my dad's "new" work computer arrived with a bunch of #VideoGames like #KingsQuestIV and #TestDrive2, and #StuntDriver that our parents never would have bought us, installed on it, courtesy of the company's IT guy. My sister and I played the ever-loving shit out of those games. Now that I think about it, what a nice guy.

    I'm hoping that I was never that "new, young, rude, know-it-all-it-guy", and I'm sorry to hear that you had to put up with him.

    The shopping and the cooking have made up for his boorish behaviour, I hope.

    As for me:

    NEGATIVES

    -- I think I flubbed a question about ed tech in an interview earlier today.

    -- I opened a new tub of Dannon plain yoghurt, only to discover it was entirely liquid. There's nothing wrong with the fridge.

    -- Anguish because a health problem is compounded by an insurance problem.

    POSITIVES

    -- I bought some tiramisu at Trader Joe's , which I will eat tomorrow evening.

    -- "Napoleon III and his carnival empire" by John Bierman is a work of popular history that I am finding both informative and entertaining.

    -- RESCENE -- Heart Drop continues to delight me.

  7. Oh look, a scientific revelation crumbles under the mighty weight of...server errors! 🖥️🔧 Apparently, the cosmic secrets of #quarks are guarded by the impenetrable fortress of a 400 Bad Request. Maybe it's time for physicists to hire an IT guy instead of smashing particles. 🤦‍♂️🔬

  11. There was a megatsunami in Lituya Bay in 1958, en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1958_L . An earthquake caused a massive rockfall into a bay. The impact with the water generated a massive wave with a run up of 520m on the opposing slope. It was a shockingly powerful wave!

    It turns out this kind of event is a risk in high latitude mountainous coastlines. The glaciers create steep valleys with fjords. The steep slopes have a high rockfall risk. In Norway, they are doing a mapping program to give warning before such disasters earthmagazine.org/article/comm

  12. #Introduction post no2: the more interesting stuff about me, stuff I will post about most often:

    - Ex-IT guy; corporate
    #TechSupport to DIY #SysAdmin. These days the tech nerdery comes in teaching myself #Linux and full stack #WebDevelopment for some personal projects, maybe someday an ActivityPub project.
    - I’m a professional
    #musician; #MultiInstrumentalist, gigged as a #guitarist and #bassist for years, currently focusing on being a kickass #drummer for an #IndieRock band that has an album coming out soon.
    - Disabled from
    #ChronicPain (do your PT kids, it'll hurt later if you don't), stuck with #depression and various #NeuroDivergent hangups. Self-treating it all with #MedicalMarijuana and #Buddhist/New Age spiritual quotes.
    - Recently came to know myself as
    #NonBinary #agender (#AMAB), technically still closeted IRL because of a lack of social skills and supportive environment, hopefully that will change soon.

  17. OK major victory today, I might FINALLY have convinced my father to occasionally restart his computer.

    (I remember back in the day an IT guy telling me my computer is like a fridge, you can just leave it permanently on. I don't remember why he felt the need to tell me that.)

  18. Welcome to those new to #receptiogate! 2 bits of context:
    1) Carla Rossi's husband David La Monaca is an IT guy and some of the "anonymous" online rants defending her have traces of his hand;
    2) Peter Kidd is an eminent independent scholar who is a consultant to the best auction houses, is known for integrity and is also a very nice and charming person. He is a very poor choice for a "villain" or a target of plagiarism.

  23. Am I upset that I spent the day push a wet noodle up the wrong hill? Sorta. But I did learn a lot about how the previous IT guy set things up, and where (I think he was headed).

    Hopefully the newly gained understanding / knowledge will still be in my head come Monday. 2/2
