He’s my favorite machete wielding madman.

Definitely one of the reasons we kept the name. It’s certainly unique, and we get to make that joke. :D

My most favoritest boy in the world is my orange named Lamp. Lamp is a friendly, playful, silly, loud, cuddly, sharp, malevolent, pesty, barfy boy I couldn’t imagine living without. We got him from the used pet shop (Humane Society). We went not knowing what we were looking for. He had a special needs tag on his cage as he was brought in from a hoarder (which is how he got named Lamp) and then adopted and returned 2 weeks later because he didn’t get along with the children in his new home. But he immediately threw his whole body against the cage door for us to pet him and we knew he was coming home with us. Lamp has 26 toes and his favorite toy is a deer hide bee.

Another runner played a Mario game on switch using motion controls strapped to his head and feel and then played the in game music on a keyboard at the same time. GDQ was wild this year.

I actually picked up a UNAS from Ubiquiti so I’m looking at drives myself. 4 and 8TB Ironwolf drives on Amazon seem decent, but I’m waiting for Monday to actually pull the trigger

Yup, those look like goof balls.

Source: I have 2 goofballs myself.

Banh mi is the superior expression of the sandwich.

Drive it like you stole it. You’re gonna do poorly for a long time until you get your head wrapped around it, so just be curious and see if that thing DOES kill you. Then you know to avoid it. There are some good tutorials on YT that can help. Might be a bit dated, but should get you a decent start. Good luck!

I am very bad at the randomizers, but that doesn’t stop me from playing them anyway. :)

Link to the Past. Partially the nostalgia hit, but even going back and playing it today just feels good IMO.

Good. It’s an integral part of the game.

Zitzza.

Was troubleshooting a failed drive in a raid array on a small business DC/File Serv/Print/Everything else box. Replaced drive still showed failed. Moved to another bay thinking it was the slot not the drive. Accidentally hit yes when asked to initialize the array. Blew the whole thing away. It was an OLD server the customer was working on replacing, so I told them it finally gave up the ghost and I was taking it back to the office to keep working on it. I had been on the job for about 4 months and thought for SURE I was fired. Turns out we were already working on moving them to the cloud, so it ended up not being a big deal.

Runs great on steamdeck as well!

His name has Guapo in it. He knows. And he flexes it. :D

See a primary doctor and a dentist at least once a year. Drink less booze and coffee, drink more water. Stretch and exercise when ya can. Everyone here pretty much nailed it. But, also, make sure you have a hobby. Something to keep the mind healthy too. I like putting together gunpla models. It’s relaxing and keeps my brain sharp (well, sharp is a strong word, but you get it). Finally, you’re gonna go to a lot more funerals than weddings now, so reach out to people you haven’t talked to in a while just to say what’s up.

Played a game of Red Dragon Inn and now watching Youtube videos while eating salami and cheese.

And absolutely nothing of value was lost.
