From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold

I'm taking some liberty with this week's theme because I can only think of one song about reunions, and I don't even like it.

My Old Friend - John Hiatt
Talk of the Town - The Pretenders
Baby Come Back - Player
My Best Friend - Jefferson Airplane
I'm getting better but I'm not very fast. The one mistake was a brain fart - I reversed criminal and innocent in the clue. Solved between bites of Greek chicken and potatoes with lemon nom nom nom.

I always used Xfce or cobbled together some *box setup because I had underspec'd hardware. Recently, I tried Fedora with Gnome on an old Ideapad and was seriously impressed with the performance. I last used Gnome maybe 15 years ago and it would grind my machine to a halt. Also, the whole Gnome environment feels very polished. (I've been a Mac user for ~20 years.) #Linux #FOSS

I don't much follow the behind the music stuff, but one of my favorite lines in a Steely Dan tune is on that album - Turn up The Eagles the neighbors are listening - from Everything You Did.

I've been contemplating that and wondering if I will leave it for my kids to deal with or liquidate it while I'm still able, before moving/dying. And, frequent moving is how I lost my original collection to begin with. 😞

After getting frustrated with companies that cripple features behind paid subscription upgrades and questionable privacy practices, I'll probably go with Reolink when it's time to replace my Blink.

I always chuckle when reports go straight from boomers to gen z.

Voice Of Harold R.E.M.
The pure tenor quality of the voice of Harold.
The finest sound available anywhere.
A must.
Chill bumps appear, and I am frozen in the web they weave as they reveal their innermost selves with the outpouring of their hearts.
Suddenly you know they're real. They mean it.
A couple of Albert King tunes. 👑
Cold Feet - Albert King
Can't hit the b flat right.
Can't nobody get a hit out of here but Sam and Dave.

@SylvieLorxu@chaos.social Are you starting to get messages about google wanting to scan the app when installing or updating? I'm starting to see that with apps I've installed via Obtainium. I know google is forcing developers to register but I think I also read maybe this just affects pixel phones, unless you run GrapheneOS.
