What first world problem did you have today?

Spotify keeps turning off the shuffle on my rock Playlist.

Same, I have 1400 songs in the list. Then I get a repeat in the same hour....we have continued your soft listening experience...WTF. Molly Hatched is not amused.

I was fencing my friend and his jacket was worn to the point where it was not registering my hits properly. I would have still lost, but maybe it would have been 5-3 instead of 5-1.

I keep seeing ads for a free cremation guide.

Been doing too many hits?

I'm spending the rest of this year engaged in a project at work that may possibly eliminate my own job.

Which *potentially* is the greatest blessing in disguise that I've received in a long time. It would force me to get away from this <word that rhymes with "mitt" + word that rhymes with "pole">

You work on a a tit knoll? No wonder you’re forever climbing the Tetons.

-Funny you say that. The boss wants to talk about how "AI can potentially free me up" to do more hands on stuff with our team and "What can we automate to make that happen".

I'm over here looking at the email like


All said and done though I've been over this job for a while and I stick around due to inertia, work life balance, and being left alone by my co-workers.

I'm taking an online class.



This is just module 1 of 4. F' me.

Bought an external HD, I know how slow HD's are, but it's been a long ass time since I used anything except NVME. I was flabbergasted when took 4.5 hours to copy 500 gigs lol. And apparently, the computer I built last Xmas has a legacy USB 2 port, because the 1st one I plugged it in said 15 hours.

A plus, it's 5TB and doesn't need a power cord. Which is awesome because I have no free plugs near my computer, and the proprietary external HD USB 3 cable is only about 6 inches long. These damn micro short USB cables with that weird ass connector are a huge 1stworldproblem.

And thus this thread has come full circle.

One of the fans in my server room is making a whining sound that has gotten worse over time and it resonates through the floor. I think the fan is temperature controlled so sometimes it hits a certain resonant frequency and gets annoying. I closed the door so it starts to heat up in there and maybe the fan will speed up enough to go out of resonance. At some point I need to figure out which equipment is doing it. I suspect it's one of the switches.

One design oversight with my setup was connecting everything to the ceiling, as it causes sound to travel through the floor.

I don't have that issue with Jellyfin.

I am watching Clarkson's Farm season 3 and did not feel like torrenting it.

No ad blocker? I don't even see them on Freevee. Ublock, and Adguard DNS servers.

It's tv app. I don't block Amazon ad since it messes with Amazon shopping. I do have pfSense so I guess I could research what I block to stop just ad on prime video.

Odd, I still get suggestions on what to buy from my shopping habits. This is on a PC though.

No the amazon shopping app goes ape shit. As in I click on a product and it returns oops error. But like I said I didn't do enough research on what to block and what to leave alone.
Ironic thing is I can probably just torrent the show faster than I can figure out the ad thing.

Noisy out there with all the KatyDidds diddin' their Katies.

I've personally seen probably a couple of hundred in just my very limited ventrures outdoors, so you know there's a bunch of 'em.

 

[Red Squirrel]

There's a geomagnetic storm right now, it was sunny all day, of course it's cloudy now so I'm missing out.

Clear here, stars and moon visible. Maybe some slight coloring, but nothing detailed. Faint hints of reds and greens.
