I’m slowly understanding Mastodon and I’m sure happy that I chose micro.blog a while ago. Wish that searching for Mastodon users wasn’t out of the way on the Discover page.


Thumbs up on Apple’s Shared Photo Library. We set it up to start with photos starting on 10/24, skipped the Moments, and set it to Manual. Now our Camera apps are set to Shared Library and everything is working very well. It did take quite a while to configure the shared library.


I hope M2 Mac Minis are announced this week. X-Plane 12 goes over energy budget of my 2019 MBP (Radeon GFX), slowly draining the battery. Frame rates aren’t great but they’re mostly workable.




Cleared out the pepper plants that were vigorously revived from rain ~18 days ago & put some clover seed down. The garden is ready for winter. I’ve got a pile for drying out leaves on stems so I’ve got a supply of compost browns without clearing leaves on the ground. 🌱


The whole house fan is really nice. It actually cools off the mass of the house so its temperature doesn’t rebound like it did with floor fans positioned at window / slider screens. It is also really cheap to run at about .25 kilowatt-hours. Thumbs up!


To no one in particular… Please remember to wipe your smart phone camera lenses off before taking photos. You don’t need to suffer with that fog in your photos.
