Today would've been my grandfather's 105th birthday. To commemorate, I went out and cleaned up around his tombstone while having a small conversation to update him and grandma on how things are going.
Sounds crazy, but it actually helps get over suddenly losing them 30 years ago. It still sucks that I wasn't able to say goodbye to either one like the rest of my family, but for some reason, this year it's been a little easier.
Damn, the Apple apologists are out in force.
Self-love DOES feel good, thank you very much.
So glad I ditched 1Password a few years ago.
I miss old-school Homestar Runner.
I love when a new Linux distro is released and it isn't based on Ubuntu, but based on Debian instead.
Introducing Vanilla OS 3 "Reunion"
(I'm not knocking Ubuntu. It's a fine choice and it works for many people, I'm just not a fan Snap and how deep it's embedded into the OS.)

Even the puppy is exhausted from this heat and humidity.
Air Force One will now be known as Panda Express due to the orange chicken on board.
For those wanting a viable alternative to 1Password, I urge you to give @aliasvault@mastodon.social a try.
I decided to test drive the KDE version of Fedora and while the UI is clean and modern, holy shit there's so much to customize. While that's a good thing for those that like to do that, I realize why I prefer GNOME over KDE.
I know a few people personally that love KDE and I can appreciate that. However, I will have to pass on switching desktop environments for the time being.
Since Trump is being petty with his renaming things to overcompensate, I renamed Lake Ontario to Lake Pedo.
Today was the first day that I was able to test MapQuest in place of Google Maps. After 3 different trips to new places, I didn't have any issues with the directions given.
So, I decided to subscribe for a month as a way to show support. Mainly, it removes ads from the app, but for a mere $2, it's worth it.
"Please, Tim. Before you go, I could really use your 'talent' and have Apple Maps re-label Lake Ontario like your rival did."
*Talent = sexual favor, naturally
I don't mind allowing ads on a website, especially when it comes to open source projects like PearOS. However, when I visit said site and 4 ads immediately show up, front and center and cover everything, it's a huge red flag and I go back to blocking ads.
What sucks is that the site won't allow you to proceed if ads are blocked.
I'd love to give the OS a try, but I'll pass this time around.
I will say this: I find it fitting that Trump renamed the smallest of the 5 Great Lakes to Lake America.
If someone calls it "Lake America", tell them that you don't speak pedophile.
It would be a shame if someone living in the area uploaded pics of the house to Google Earth.
