I'm so mad at myself right now.

I went to a routine blood work appointment. I do this every three months, so I should know the drill. I forgot the appointment card. No problem. I booked it online, so they'll have it on file. Problem is, When I reached for my wallet to get my health card, it wasn't there. They need one or the other. I had to reschedule the appointment.

Worst part? When I got home, I found my wallet in my messenger bag. I had it the whole time. 🀬

I laid down "for a quick nap" this afternoon. Just woke up. It's almost midnight.

I guess the sleep deprevation of the past week has finally caught up with me.

Just heard a kid address his group of friends he was physically seated with as "chat". Is this a thing?

Maybe I'm just old.

The question for me is whether referring to people IRL is still irony, or has it simply become part of the lexicon.

In case anyone here is also using Reticulum, I can be reached at: lxmf@32f62870f2d7c418b59f1c5f9f1617e2

Don't know yet if it's something I'll use long-term, but it is at least interesting to play with for now.

For reasons I shan't get into, Katy had to adjust her diet for 24 hours, and I decided to do likewise so as to not make the experience any more unpleasant for her than it had to be. After reading the label, I have come to the conclusion that Ensure meal replacement shakes are not designed with diabetics in mind. They have about 75% of the sugar content of a can of Coke.

Oops...

At the hospital again for nearly two hours. Still waiting to see the one after-hours doctor they have on staff...

neti pot discussion (gross)
While my neti pot is really good at clearing my sinuses, it has an unfortunate side-effect. I'll end up with a small amount of water trapped in my sinuses which will randomly drain at some unpredictable point when I happen to tilt my head at just the right (or wrong?) angle.

I've been playing around with #OpenWeatherMap's air quality API. Interestingly, there seems to be some disagreement between its report and Environment Canada's. The former says "Good" and the latter says "Moderate Risk". Granted, they use different scales, but that still seems a rather significant discrepancy.

I don't need an air quality report to tell me things are bad right now. I can see haziness in the air when looking at things that are less than a block away.

A thing that's always bothered me about Star Trek:

They always talk about the Alpha quadrant, Delta quadrant, etc. Space is three-dimensional. Shouldn't they be octants?

They are only talking about our galaxy, the Milky Way. It's more like a disc than a sphere. So I find the quadrant nomenclature satisfactory.

Went to the emergency room today (everyone's fine) to discover that the two main hospitals in town have merged.

Me: Hmm... I wonder what the implications of this are going to be.

I wonder if there's a market for someone who can convert a schematic drawing (or rough sketch) to an STL file for #3DPrinting on a freelance basis. I'm getting to be pretty decent at it, and it's kinda fun.

I'm pretty sure there's probably already some AI garbage that purports to do so.

@Jonathan Lamothe when I did use microsoft I just used the microsoft virus checker. But the simple truth is that windows is designed to be susceptible to viruses to discourage people from using non-microsoft software. So, the only way to stop the viruses is to stop using Microsoft. That is the only real solution.

@Jonathan Lamothe I have used several operating systems such as Linux, which had no problem stopping viruses on the same machines as Microsoft. If they could do it, Microsoft could easily have stopped viruses. We might have accepted a transitory issue when viruses first appeared, but not a continued issue that continue despite many updates. The truth is Microsoft did very well from all the viruses, because they were used to deter people from trying non "official" microsoft software. That put Microsoft in a very dominant position and that is what made it so much money from some of the crappiest software on the planet.
