Lynn Shelton passed away over the weekend. Marc Maron, her boyfriend, talked about losing her on his podcast. I thought what he had to say was honest and vulnerable. Highly recommend it.

Super close now. Only a few more inspections and we're done

@scottalanmiller that's apparently what we are switching to. I have no input on those decisions.

It's not bad, just costly

He's home!

After almost 3 weeks in the hospital, my Grandpa is apparently going home tomorrow or friday once the oxygen tank delivery arrives at his home. I was really worried we were going to lose him. We had a lot of scares throughout this time. The guy is 78 years old and survived a confirmed covid case. Hopefully this gives any of you that have sick relatives some hope.

@scottalanmiller said in Non-IT News Thread:

So the president of Nicaragua just missed his first scheduled appearance in 41 days which was specifically for him to confirm that he is actually alive as the international press is pretty convinced that he died of COVID in late February. His wife is the VP and has been unable to produce him all this time.

Missing the press conference to confirm that he's alive is not the way to convince people.

I was just reading about this. Wild

@travisdh1 This should be done in a few weeks. I think we will wait a month to actually move in.
We need to install curtains, a security system, switch rack, refrigerator etc.

"switch rack" ?

Yeah, whats the question?

I don't know what a "switch rack" is in this context.

It's a rack with network switches in it

Ah, there are plenty of wall mount 3U and up units out there that are relatively inexpensive. One or more modular jack swing panels and a decent cable management unit and you're good to go.

In some cases a 2 post rack may be a better fit or a small 21U rack enclosure if needed.

That's a matter of need based on whether there's a home cluster to be had.

I have a full rack @BRRABill gave me. It will be in my office on the second floor. The cabling on the external walls has already been done. I'm going to finish the internal cabling myself for our security cameras, PC's, etc.

House update:

well, holy shit digital garment printers are expensive.

Yup, I have been wanting one for a while. Very expensive.

a friend of mine was asking for help finding one for $1500. I thought it sounded much lower than what I would expect it to cost but the lower end is $15k. He will need to find a broken one for cheap and invest into fixing it probably.

I am forced to use Oracle

I've only been eating dinner. I am losing a lot of weight
