Me in the morning before my #ADHD meds have kicked in:

Maybe the ninth time I walk into the bathroom I'll remember to put deodorant on.

#ADHD


It rather amazes me the number of people who are suspicious of the pharma industry, who then turn around and put total and absolute faith in the supplement industry.

a shocking amount of pharmacuticals are essentially just rehashes of naturally cultivated bioactives.

@know FWIW, I wasn't making the argument that the pharmaceutical industry is trustworthy. πŸ˜‰

i tend to resist popular criticism of the supplement industry. supplements are underrated.


Dear hlint:

I value your input, but in this case, I disagree.

Our local grocery store has a program where you can get a box of assorted discounted produce so long as you're not picky about what's in it. Katy and I had been meaning to try this out for a while, and it's been a pretty good experience so far. We're both creatures of habit, especially where food is concerned, and finding new recipes to figure out how to use the stuff we normally don't have has been rather enjoyable on the whole.

If keeping your grocery bill low is something you're trying to do, I recommend seeing if your local grocer has such a program.

Hmm... I wonder if we have a local farmshare. I was not familiar with this concept.

@Judy Anderson My bigest gripe was that I'm sure their app is collecting all kinds of data on me behind my back (Flash Food in this case).


So all the posts I've missed over the past four days during the outage are starting to pour in now. So far the new machine's handling the influx of traffic like a champ. The old one would be really struggling right now.

I am happy about this.




Hooray! I finally got the last of the systems I depend on daily back up and running.

Perhaps something I should consider is a contingency plan for the (hopefully very distant) next time my server fails.



Outage Recovery


The machine that this node was running on failed on 2 Jul 2024. A new machine has been acquired and a restore from backup was performed. It'll probably take a couple days for the database to settle as it re-synchronizes with the rest of the network.

Edit: grammar (proofreading fail)
