Now imagine the eventuality when Amazon says "OK, we'll also start picking up packages you need to ship now and leverage our network to get it delivered, just print out a label, and we'll sell you a label printer or $5, and charge less per-package..."

The way I see it, the games my wife and I like playing all play reasonably on the cards we already have. If the 5060s are just used for the AI work that perfectly serves my purposes well. For now, I think I'll remove the old cards, upgrade in place. Then once I can hit the store or find a...

As my mountain Dwarven instincts start manifesting more and more... that means being drawn to more expensive metals apparently... Behold what 23.8 ounces of junk silver jewelry I got off Ebay melted down into.... (80% purity silver) Including the elusive magical lucky silver poop! If I get...

So today I find myself at a quandry.... Decided to do the "tiny" upgrade to the desktops in the house. (my rig and the one @Mrs. Haus uses). 3060s with 8GB to 5060TIs with 16G. For the first time I can remember I'm doing an upgrade NOT because of gaming performance. But rather that we're...

Slightly more semi-official update and PSA... for of all things.. a PSA blood check.

My usual stance is if it doesn't come across with a caller ID I recognize as a person I want to talk to, then I don't answer. Lately that has been loosened a little as I am starting to do some "job market exploration" and other things.....

I'm still getting a lot that seem to be calling just to see if someone answers. I answer, say hello, and silence, then hang up. Only thing I can think is someone was expecting someone to answer in a foreign language, or clankers mapping out which phone numbers have humans attached for later.

Yeah. Lisa is more active than him apparently on Instagram, and he keeps popping up in her posts and looking like he's doing well. Which is relieving.

We still ahve one of those macs in our storage from from the wife's college days. Unrelated:

Three racoons in a trenchcoat.... One here to talk the technology One in Politics to talk social ramifications Kinda surprised there isn't one in the stonkhouse to talk about the market/stock/money game around AI....

That's actually been documented as possibly the biggest problem with his acting career. He's of a light build with boyish looks, which doesn't translate into "Hollywood leading man" (i.e. the Hemsworths, Cavills, etc...) which has been attributed to reasons the non-Spidey films he's been in as...

Well, at it's core, the character is BOTH a quip throwing jovial hero, and a troubled young dude going through a seemingly perpetual string of bad moments, always has been. The ongoing mantra in the comics is that Peter Parker can never really have a happy ending and Stan Lee even once talked...

Most interesting part of being someone who lives in Dallas during this is watching the rotation of people from foreign countries coming to town for the World Cup and having their every loving minds blown by food in Texas. Then Twitter of course pumps me feed full of it since I have a lot of...

I thought a few in here might get a reasonable chuckle from this.. as I did.

I've been a big fan of the poop in a box method which my Dr is OK with so far. But considering my kidney tumor adventure last year I fully expect that will change with this next go around. I saw this one and was curious, but since I'm not 3+ years clear from the kidney thing I can leverage it...
