I think too often about not having to work anymore. Hopefully the day will come, and it’s my choice.


I exported a 4K 60fps 45 minute video in about 13 minutes on my M3 Ultra, and it was whisper quiet the whole time. This computer is exceeding my expectations.


Updated the profile picture. I’m going to try to change it more often.

The star of the show was the Kobe Beef from Kobe. Buttery soft meat that melts a bit in your mouth. The fat is soft and is easy to chew. Not since Kobe have I had this quality.

My new m3ultra studio does the starlapse processing(1300 images today) in under 5 minutes. It used to take around 70.


It’s new computer day.

So is the endgame just having only white people in this country, or maybe back to segregation? I don’t know who’s scarier, the ones with fingers in their ears, or the ones who earnestly want this.


Bought a new feeder, and the birds found it really quickly and are favoring the new over the old.


Moved 3 more domains off of godaddy. I think I have 10 more I need to move. Now with micro.blog I’m going to do a few more blogs with those domains.


Found a 3rd cocoon

The last problem with rustdesk setup

When trying to start a session I got “key mismatch” error. So I

mv id_ed25519 id_ed25519BK

and

mv id_ed25519.pub id_ed25519.pubBK

Then bounced

Then cat id_ed25519.pub to get the new key and that fixed it.


Spent a day trying to figure out why port forwarding didn’t work. Then I remembered this morning my modem has settings. So I had to setup something there too. Time to get a new modem.


The alien enemies act is vile, with a disgusting history, and must be struck down immediately.


Cheers
