I moved over to TabloTV about 8 or 9 years ago. I got tied of fixing stuff when I would update something and Tablo just worked on the Roku without much fuss.

I'm still happy with and love the Tablo, but it's no better than MythTV was, just easier to maintain.

Be ready to deal with a backup plan. Consumer services like Backblaze don't work with Linux.

I have opted into backing my data up to a local network NAS machine which in-turn backs all of its data up to a StorJ backed s3:// compatible endpoint which is very inexpensive.

I think the "everyone anyone your pronouns" thing in email, slack, whatever is dumb. But if I lived in SD, I'd start doing it right about now.

Have you found any good private server sublemmies? Whatever we're calling them?

Plus shit like Maven and Gradle leave nothing to the imagination.

Isn't it wonderful?!

Embrace boring software development practices. You'll get good rest on the weekends and have a long and productive career.

Sure, I'll just travel to places to verify the source every time when I consume news. That's reasonable!

I've owned an electric since 2013, never run into a down charging station. Early on, I'd run into single chargers that were occupied, but that's it.

Not saying it's not possible to have a broken station, just never hit it. But I, like most people, charge at home, 95% of the time.

I drove a leaf for 3 years and it had 80 to start with and ended around 67. At the end, it was a pain, but didn't notice until around 70mi range. Somehow, 75 would get me from home, to the airport, to work, and back home again with room to breathe. At 67, it was nail biting.

To the point, 150 is probably good for quite a lot of people.

States rights!!

It's a common thing to say in context. As a headline though, it's absolutely click bait. "The Supreme Court is on the ballot" was heard over and over in 2016 which turned out to be 100% true.

You can only threaten to cancel if there's an alternative. I tried this and they were like: okay man, just be forewarned that there's a connection fee when you come back.

They were right, it was more $ to follow through with my threat and they knew it.

Don't let perfection be the enemy of good. I'm not suggesting we're don't have a really high bar, but 100% is just unreasonable.
