This intentionally pushes more people to the Medicare Advantage ~~scams~~ plans.

It's a handout to insurance companies. The worst ones. All under the banner of saving tax payer dollars.

Premiums might go down! (Nevermind your drug costs going up).

If you need to change the references in the compose or env files:

  • use sed to replace text in .env
  • use variables and interpolation in compose

rsync

Built-in, picks up where it left off if you accidentally cancel it by running the same command again, and dead simple.

Permissions for the files will probably be a little broken moving to Linux, but chmod is also easy to use and can work at the directory level.

$100+ USD for a 6oz A5 wagyu steak. Certainly changes your perspective on the heights of quality for steak. I also paid $65 for a sashimi grade tuna Benedict at this place for brunch. No ragrets.

$60 for a 1/2 pour of an $1100 bottle of bourbon (rabbit hole amburana). It was a novelty and surprised me a lot. Definitely phenomenal, but a taste was all I needed. No ragrets.

Sam adams utopia (think it was $220 for the 750ml bottle of "beer"), not worth it, but a fun experience to share with other beer nerds.

There's an apparently $1200 bottle of wine from a small napa vineyard with a wait-list for their wine in my basement right now we got as a gift. We're gonna need to find a pro who can help us taste that. My wine taste tops out at about $30 a bottle.

One day I'll do Omakase at a suitably awesome sushi place and wreck the credit card.

Did a senior paper 20 years ago marrying the concepts of naturalistic and normative epistemology.

The takeaway was that it doesn't matter if you can't actually prove that you know or don't know anything. You have to live and have always lived as if you can/do know things.

Depends on the number of beads.

It's the juxtaposition with the Arby's in the background (a fast food chain) and their "we have the meats" motto.

The implication here being that the foreskins are the meats.

Sadly, the word order is incorrect.

There can be only one.

Of course.

Easy enough to dump them in a folder and spend a few minutes a week playing cyber security theater.

I have a rule that searches the email headers for the test emails and just deletes them.

Layoff at least 3% of staff!

 

I finally gave up my Nvidia 2070 Super and rejoined Team red with a 9070 XT. And it's like this is the way everything was always meant to be.

HDR works without breaking font rendering. Sleep states just work. No more random border flickering in fullscreen or borderless windows. And the fans never even spin up.

I did have to unwind a couple Nvidia workarounds to swap over successfully (like /etc/environment needed cleaning up for sddm-greeter-qt to not core dump).

No ragrets.

No regerts.

Team red 4lyfe (again).

 

I took the toaster apart and cleaned the contacts for the lever that signal the hold down while toasting. Now we don't have to stand there and hold it (that was 3 morning routines slightly out of order).

I had to buy a set of special bits because someone decided they needed to use security torx bolts in the corners hidden under the feet. This was of course in addition to the 14 regular old #2 Phillips screws. But it's always nice to have a reason to get new tools.

In other news, the clean signal started flashing on on the espresso machine today, so I have another little project for tomorrow too.

 

I don't really have anyone else to shout at about this, but it's an amazing way to host services in rootless containers entirely in user space using systemd (systemctl --user).

I applied some paste wax to the table saw and was pleasantly surprised that it made a difference.

I think I'll have to use this on the wood runners on the old dresser I have too.

In case you're concerned, it's just a little DeWalt contractor's table saw. No sawstop or powermatic here. That's for the cool guys on youtube.
