A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, phones wiped, ship blown up, disappeared to El Salvador, then released without charge. “They knew we were fishermen. Even the Salvadorian authorities said things had been handled very badly.”
When I was considering music performance as a major I was definitely looking at North Texas, I remember even back then their trumpet ensemble was top tier.

Back to working on a Macbook for work (haven't since 2021) and man I forgot how long it took me to get used to last time. Forgot that I need to get a docking station just to use a real mouse and keyboard 😭

RAM that says OWC3R2D42R432GB Serial number 3156000074
(I'm not a hardware savvy person) I was informed I probably mean ECC? Its this if it means anything to anyone.
Off chance - does anyone in mpls (including non mututals) need server RAM? A series of mishaps has meant I have 64gb of it vs RAM that actually works in the desktops we were building last night.
Most of my time playing Fields of Mistria is on there if you like farming sims. I've also exclusively played Natsumon on there, you need to mess with the graphics on the title screen but it's fine after that!
A small yellow daffodil barely poking out of the ground. The flower is yellow and only one leaf has opened up, the rest are still stuck together
First bloom I've found in the yard~ moved some leaf mulch to weed a bit today and found a daffodil that was fighting for its life under the mulch 😂
We are *SO* close (92%) to hitting our target GoFundMe goal. We continue to get new rent support requests in every day.

Mpls folks - recommendations for a roofing company? Looking to get 2 more quotes before we redo our roof in the burbs (BP); want to do that before we put some solar panels on.
Tried to switch from a galaxy s phone (s10) to a pixel 8 pro at a friend's rec and that did not go well. I'm not built for how pixels do their UX/UI, I felt like I was going crazy trying to just make it feel right! I don't want all of the apps to be alphabetical with no ability to sort them!
Nice, glad they're covering it! Mine is the same, told on Mon but they officially cut us off today so we'd have insurance this month. Lots of people doing it right about now, gotta love everyone trying to do it before the end of Q1
There's still snow coming and if there's snow on the ground the tree can stay up!
Discord servers out there for people laid off recently
* lots of people end up taking contract or part time between their "main" roles they want, no shame in the game if you need to do that
* ignore anyone who seems to good to be true, lots of scammers out there targeting open to work banner people
Need to have a dead week before getting paid out, so starting asap is best
* if you didn't see it coming just take the week to grieve/decompress/sort out your thoughts; linkedin will still be there Monday
* lots of people find community helpful during it - if you're in games/tech there are tons of
My 2nd was today, some tips to take or leave:
* since it was yesterday, chances are your health insurance doesn't cover starting today (new month). Check into what info you were given about cobra/state plans/etc - it's also a qualifying event to get on someone else's
* look at unemployment- usually
Work officially announced our company shutdown today so now I have a trend of every other job I take ending because of a shutdown~ Gonna miss all my work friends but I am excited to start up in a new industry in a few weeks; gaming was fun to dip my feet in but it was never going to be home for me.
Today (Thursday) is my last day with only 1 commitment for a while so I left myself play videogames till 3am as a treat ✨️
My husband is 6'6" so I swapped with him to save his knees, I'm a paltry 5'8" 😂 on long hauls I'll upgrade him but was gambling on good etiquette for this flight 🪦
I'm still too cheap for the upgrade; one day!
A plane seat with someone sitting and the seat in front reclined and pushing into the knees of the person behind them
Seat ahead was mad they were in coach it seems and did an immediate full recline and would sit up and then drop down onto their seat if I leaned my head on it; if you don't want coach amounts of space just pay for the upgrade!

One of the big needs for immigrant families still is grocery support. @elitalksmpls.bsky.social and I have been feeding 40 families on a regular basis & they need another delivery. We have a $400 match if we can raise $400 to get to our goal. Can you help us?

Flew to CA to pet my coworkers dogs and it was a success - met 8 current/former coworkers (and 3 internet friends) and pet 4 dogs and 2 cats I see on work calls (and bonus MSP therapy dog). Excited to fly home to pet my dogs tomorrow but I've finally gotten to meet all the other scrum cuties.
I remember because everyone made fun of Ashley B for bringing her raincoat to Kelly farm and then it rained while we were there and she was the only one with a coat and I learned about karma that day
