It’s nice to see media companies taking a proactive approach to online harassment:
Really proud of the work we are doing @DefectorMedia to try and build policies that will keep all employees safe and supported. :)

I really like this hotel vanity mirror. The lighting is so nice! Makes it easy to take selfies.

A few months ago, I scored a fully working Apple PowerMac G4 Cube on eBay. My original plan was to convert it into a working computer by swapping the guts for a Raspberry Pi 4. After getting the initial build working, I wasn't particularly happy with the performance for a desktop, so I decided to look elsewhere.

Last week, thanks to a friend, I was able to purchase a Dell Wyse thin client labeled as a refurbished computer for around $100. It has a Pentium Silver J5005 inside, 8 GB of RAM, and a tiny built in flash storage.

I cracked it open, stripped it down, and sure enough the motherboard is the perfect size to pressure fit carefully inside the G4 Cube chassis. Result!

Next, I added a 250 GB Samsung EVO SSD, and installed Ubuntu Linux on it. I am using a little USB switcher so I can share keyboard and mouse with my M1 MacBook Pro, and it works wonderfully hooked up to a 4K monitor.

Next up, I need to clean the interior a bit, so some cable management, and find a way to integrate the power button.

What a fun project this has been so far!

So, I bought a hot tub like an old person. It’s good to be old.
We cook fish often but this is the first time I’ve spotted a parasitic worm in it. Tiny. But it’s fresh fish so the parasite is very much alive. On a scale of “meh” to “not eating that no matter how completely it’s cooked” where do you stand?
Wow, I actually have an outline now for a "Ruby for JavaScript Developers" book. I'm starting to think this might be a thing. I've blogged on various technical topics for decades but never wrote a book. Maybe it's time?
