I’m going out of town for a few days next week, and I’d really like to get this bundle of stuff shipped out tomorrow. I just put a huge discount on it if you buy today.
We recently had a fully functioning grandfather clock (weight-driven) passed to us and I’m in love. We already have a couple of mantle clocks (spring-driven), and I wear an automatic watch daily. There’s just something I love about the engineering and analog of it all.
I have some new stuff on my Gear For Sale page, including an office clean-out grab bag at a great price. And an Apple Studio Display too. For those that bought Challenge Coins, they shipped out this morning (I do have a few left if anyone is interested).
Give me a recommendation for a great Historical Fiction book.
A Saturday involving moving furniture between 4 different homes. My father-in-law brought furniture from 200mi away to our house, then picked up furniture from a 3rd house to return to his house. Later, we have to move the original furniture from our house to another house. Then from that house…
Random Photos Memory shot of the day. Good lighting not included. It’s the time of year where outdoor time (and yard work) becomes the norm.
A couple of years ago, I designed (and had minted) a challenge coin. I have a few left if anyone is interested. $15 for one or $25 for two. Shipping to USA included.
I’m down to the last couple things on my current Gear for Sale page. I’m willing to deal if you want anything. Yes, I’ll ship. A new batch of listings is coming soon.
I work in an org that has a small staff but a large volunteer base. Internally, we use Todoist. There’s not a built-in way to share project lists with non-members/users. Today, I created a single page site that ties into the Todoist API, displays tasks, ands allows volunteers to view what’s needed.
I’ve really enjoyed David McCloskey’s spy/espionage series. If you’re into the genre, start with Damascus Station—it’s CIA-focused and mostly set in Syria. The next books take you to Mexico and Russia. McCloskey is a former CIA officer and co-host of The Rest is Classified podcast.
If you use Kagi, here’s a simple theme you can copy/paste. Spaces things out, cleans some stuff, tweaks the link colors.
I’ve been seeing a lot of posts about Vivaldi and Zen browsers. What are you using on macOS and iOS? I’ve been 100% Safari for a long time, but open to exploring options.
Taking the family to Mardi Gras parades today. The in Louisiana but not in New Orleans kind.
Finding the Best Wallet
I share my positive experience with the Lochby Sidekick wallet, highlighting its functionality and capacity for an EDC setup compared to my previous slim wallet.
What do you use to track TV Shows/Seasons? I don’t need social features, etc. Something to basically allow me to add shows, mark episodes I’ve seen, & see what’s up next. I’ve been using TV Forecast (connects with trackt.tv). No complaints, but I’m up for renewal and would like to see options.
I’ve added some video equipment to my gear for sale page. Blackmagic and PTZOptics.
Anyone with a 3D printer up for doing a small print for me? 🙂
If you’re a MLB fan, you might find this useful. I wanted a simple way to see each team’s 40-man roster, so I made my own.
Bayou Theme has been updated to version 1.2. Included in this version is the option to define how many microposts and longform posts are shown on the homepage, change the categories for microposts and longform posts, set the site language (en, de, es, fi, fr, it, pt, ru), and change the date format.
Support for Summaries is now rolling out for Tiny and Sumo Theme.
Braves fans first. But baseball fan overall. My phone surfaced this photo from a few years ago today. Son had been begging to catch an Astros game.
Updates coming this week for Tiny, Sumo, and Bayou themes include a newsletter fix, improved support for social media images (particularly for users with multiple blogs), improved support for the new summary feature, and a few bug fixes.
As a ProPresenter + Multitracks + Live Streaming producer, today was a rough day. Dealing with MIDI/Network issues can age you a few years within a few hours.
