OK! Eventually I’ll familiarize myself enough with Alpine Linux and set up a manual #nextcloud instance I can fine-tune, but for now, the snap package on Ubuntu made it super-easy to migrate it to a Linode.

Either the kid’s friend made a Sledge Hammer reference or the game they’re playing on Roblox includes one.
Maybe Square/Block can add another dimension and call themselves Hypercube.
Emphasis on hype.
In a move that should surprise no one, H&R Block is suing Block (formerly Square) for trademark infringement.

Weird jet-black deep-sea “#footballfish” washes ashore.
LA Times (paywall):
Ultra-rare, bizarre fish that washed ashore near San Diego is California’s third this year
Birdsite:
Rare find‼️ A Pacific #footballfish, one of the largest species of #anglerfish, washed ashore near Encinitas last Friday. Lifeguards notified scientists about the unique #deepsea creature, and Scripps scientist Ben @Frable was able to collect it for research and preservation.

Seriously thinking about putting the keyboard on the gaming computer (the one the kid uses most often) through the diskwasher
*dishwasher.
But i kinda like the typo.
A very camera-shy #BlackPhoebe. This was the clearest view I managed to get.
Kid’s friend: “Ew, my sandwich has eyeballs in it.”
Kid: “Same.”
Picking up Indian food from a local place. Big sign at the counter saying “Experience the NAAN-COMA”
At the post office. Again. At least the line’s moving today. There’s a shelf of shipping supplies labeled “Land of the free boxes.”
Mildly gross/COVID adjacent:
Inhaled a bit of spit & tried to stifle the resulting cough. Failed. The person behind me in line left.
Considering she was one of only 2 people in line not wearing masks, I can’t feel too bad.
COVID measures:
County has had an indoor mask order for months now. State has just imposed one over rising case rates. Curiously, LA county’s rates are a lot flatter than the state as a whole.
I can spin the PokeStop in the lobby again, but my item bag is full.
USPS/uspol:
“The job got so big, Santa asked the USPS to find volunteers to help!”
Um, seriously. Because a hatchet man appointed by the previous administration gutted their ability to actually pay people.
Oh, NOW I realize I should’ve put a lure on it
Shipped!
Now back onto the road with people who haven’t driven in the rain for a year!
I guess this is what's left when you cut down happy trees?
Spent way too much of today’s workday trying to track down what was & wasn’t using log4j.
Fun times…
