My test pairs of Danish Endurance socks did not endure. Why am I having so much trouble finding a good brand of socks that has extended sizes and lasts more than a short period? Recommendations anyone?

My high school reunion is coming up. I remain uncertain about going. Do I want to see people who, for the most part, cut ties after high school? Then I found out, in different rooms in the same venue space, the school is having 60th, 50th, 45th, 40th, 35th, 30th, 25th, 20th, 10th, and 5th reunions. That’s a lot of alumni in one place. Oddly, the 65th, 70th, and 75th get the day before. Wondering if it is worth revisiting the past.
So, the U.N. Security Council passed Resolution 2728…which notes that the taking of hostages is prohibited under international law and demands the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. I don’t expect Hamas to do that, and I don’t think the U.N. Security Council does either. The other part of the demand is a ceasefire demand for the month of Ramadan, leading to a lasting sustainable ceasefire. The U.N. Security Council does expect, I’d imagine, Israel to do that, despite the fact the last pause in the fighting was interrupted by Hamas.
After field testing my mini PC mobile setup, I realized I didn’t bring a speaker. No wonder the Youtube video I queued up didn’t work. Okay, time for a checklist.
After all this work I’m doing today to get Bluesky syndication working…I hope someone replies on Bluesky.
Looks like my syndicating to Bluesky is still a bit messed up. Ah, well. Work in progress.
Writing code at a hotel. Wondering if I’ve gone a bit overboard on the mobile setup. Portable monitor, mini PC, keyboard and trackball.
Heading back home to NYC in the morning. Left home on February 17th, 18 days ago. I miss my bed.
It’s Leap Day and I’m in Sofia, Bulgaria. I’m about to finish a two week deployment. It’s been 4 years since my last deployment here ended in the pandemic. I can hear the sound of planes flying over the hotel.
Testing syndication from my website to Bluesky. Have been meaning to do this for a while.
Looks like I’ll be ringing in 2024 with my Lyft driver.
First LL 9am for Indiana Jones Adventure. Recent remodel.
Been going through various parts of my apartment to find things to throw out, organize, and in some cases, digitize. I’ve been trying to get my apartment perfect for years…but I feel like I keep redoing the same parts.
Words matter. And if the phrase, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free,” is not, as some people chanting it claims, a call for the elimination of Israel..then accept that is what it sounds like to another group of people and pick a new phrase. GitHub got rid of Master because the computer terminology of Master/Slave was an issue for some. Otherwise, you are just proving the point. You know what reaction you’ll get because you want that reaction. And if you legitimately don’t, why do you put the blame on the people who are offended for not understanding that you didn’t mean to refer to the classical meaning of the phrase? Especially if you feel you are coming from the moral high ground? People have every right to say what they think and as an American I defend their right to say it.
I always love it when the cable company shows up to tell me that the signal into my home TOO powerful and that's why it wasn't working.
