I tried Nobu’s Miso Black Cod recipe with straw fries and miso glazed carrots. This was an absolute win.

What're people using for a NAS these days? I'm thinking of going local media instead of relying on the cloud so much.

I dig this bit of whimsy after paying for Hagerty car insurance: "Your payment is now in the rearview mirror”.

Just made a coffee that's one of the best I've made at home. I've impressed myself. Damn.

Did popcorn always get into every mouth crevice or is this a part of getting older? I swear flossing has become required.

Everybody talks about how Adobe will offer a discount when trying to cancel service. I was just on the Lightroom plan ($12/mo) and no discount was offered. (I was cancelling anyway. This was just an observation.)

I used to be a big MS Windows user until about 2008, maybe 2009. I bought a gaming PC in 2020 but barely need to touch anything at the OS level except install and launch games. When I do need something more at the OS level, so much of it just feels like a veneer on an older system.
