sorry this is my fault, we were using it as a prop for a Cronenberg film....

Did my first virtual ride on Zwift. It is very weird not to have to worry about steering the bike. I feel like I was in the matrix. It is pouring rain out, so yeah, I see the appeal of riding indoors. I also am able to tighten the pedal tensioners to their “death grip” setting because there is no falling off a stationary bike. I also noticed, while looking at what cadence other people ride at on Strava, that all of Brent’s Strava pictures are of food. You can’t make this stuff up. 😂

I have not listened in a few days, I think I overcompensated today. The End Continues by Spinal Tap (2025) https://album.link/wkfchxst380hj Example: A little croaky, but i think it is suppose to be. And fun. Winding down for a bit - Sweet for K by Tsuyoshi Yamamoto (2024) https://album.link/4gr3x3f9djhbs Example: Overall a lovely recording, each tune is presented really well. Taken as a whole it does become a little samey, a touch more variety track to track would have been nice. My first Tsuyoshi, and I like it. Still have Hardly Strictly on my mind Billy Strings - EP by Billy Strings (2016) https://open.qobuz.com/album/hys0x0fa5vicc Example: Just an EP so not too long... But fun. and just a Blue Note - of note. That’s Where It’s At by Stanley Turrentine (1962) https://album.link/nctnpggrt7ckg Example:

To honor Indigenous Peoples' Day I watched eight episodes of The Hunting Wives. It’s half General Hospital, half Baywatch, half Goodfellas, half Mean Girls, and half Stepford Wives with a sprinkling of real sexism & Red/Blue commentary. Sure it’s ridiculous and awful, but I’m not sure it’s bad.

@EdipisReks1 - it will be curious to hear your thoughts on ink consumption and cost to print. Looks like ~$100 to replace all 8 cartridges which honestly is not horrible. 13" maximum dimension (in one direction) coupled with 39" length could be fun to tinker with. -

I set up my new Pixma PRO-200S today. It’s an absolute game changer for me. -

Something I just learned that others might already know: Apple removed the secure erase function from Disk Utility because users where "damaging their SSDs." Something, you know, a warning popup might have solved. Now one has to go through Terminal to accomplish the same thing. I mention this now because I'm finally decommissioning some external HDDs from the early 2010s. -
Think of it as a layer of glue, not as a solder dome like with through hole. And don't worry, electrons will flow!

Made a control board for filament smps today. Some pictures from my kitchen. Idle voltage – no tube 2A3 300B and EML 20B-V4 -
I watched a factory tour of some company that made DACs, maybe it was PS Audio, and they had a wall of shame by the repair bench that featured one that had been caked in a similar damping paint. Applying a sealant over a PCB that hasn't been cleaned is also a great way to make it much more likely that it will fail much sooner. Maybe this guy is a rogue employee from Acoustic Revive: Probably because of their glossy casework, seeing the inside of a Viva amplifier for the first time was the worst kind of surprising.

And no Ketchup dispenser / applicator? What are they thinking

This morning before finishing up our bathroom remodel cabinetry project, I prepped and Al cooked breakfast on the flattop. Kind of a mimic of Waffle House's Smothered, covered, loaded hashbrowns. All the eds were used. Bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, smoked cheddar and scrambled eggs and bacon on the side. We made a ton, and I think that I hurt myself a little bit, as our project required me to move and conform in ways that I found difficult. Lot's of groaning and weezing involved. But we prevailed. The homeowners left fresh baked chocolate chip cookies, which I still can't quite consume, even though they look amazing.
