I knew RAM prices were out of control, but I haven’t actually looked at any until just now when I was thinking about doubling the memory in my home server mini PC. Cheapest DDR5 SODIMM I could find was $120! Holy shit! I should’ve upgraded it last time I looked when a 64GB pair was only $130.
What better way to test out #Ivory app’s new audio posts ok #iOS than to publicly post the first track of an #album I’ve been working on for some years called *King of The Zoo*.
The title is “Better Days”.

I really enjoyed the first two episodes of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy! I was a little worried that the “youthfulness” aspect of the show might not work for me (since I’m old and only getting older), but honestly there was a lot of heart there and that’s timeless. Plus I feel like I picked up […]
“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”
Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”?
@KristiNoem needs to resign.
@JDVance owes her son an apology.
Shame on everyone.
When I happen to read comments in GitHub issues and pull requests for any machine models I always think of this…

Their "record profits" are your unpaid wages.
A Starbucks style coffee cup with a Klingon style logo with Worf’s titles written on it as if he himself had ordered the coffee at a Klingon Starbucks.
I don’t know who made this originally, but I just love it so much! Came across it on my desktop during a cleanup session and wanted to share.

Sometimes I think having #ADHD just means I spend an inordinate amount of time and energy trying to get my brain to stop producing gibberish.
The crazy thing is that if I were to still live in a state like Texas that doesn’t have an extended Medicaid program I would get none of that extremely expensive healthcare.
There were also some really great sci-fi concept episodes in all the different shows. Especially loved the time dilation because of black hole at the other end of the Stargate episode!
New York Times from Sunday, November 23, 1924. A headline reads: Finds spiral nebula are stellar systems, Dr. Hubbell Confirms View That They Are 'Island Universes' Similar to Our Own.
Today is the 100th anniversary of Edwin Hubble discovering that those fuzzy clouds were actually other galaxies! #lookup #space #Astronomy
Finishing more drafts and publishing them. Latest: my review of Snac (★★★★☆), an _ultra_ -minimalist ActivityPub server that reminds me of an old Web 1.0 guestbook (minus the garish backgrounds and colors).
And yet it not only lets you post text and images and follow people on other […]
@BeAware@social.beaware.live We really do. ☹️
I just read a comment on a thread that said something to the effect of “I preferred the internet that wasn’t driven by profit focused influencers” and it made me realize that I loathe that profit-driven focus of social networks these days.
The new Vitals feature in the #iOS18 #Health app is pretty neat. No new data really, but a straightforward way to visual data. When I got #Covid a couple weeks ago I felt awful and there was no doubt that I was sick, but interestingly the day before I […]

I assume data centers are frequently decomissioning server hardware as new more efficient hardware comes out. who gets the old stuff?
