King Parrot are doing an all ages show in Richmond today. I’d like to take the kids but it would be an expense venture for something they probably won’t be into

He was certainly in the right place at the right time to rejuvenate a failing prog band

The Best Show is doing a list of top 50 luckiest MFers and some of the people that have made the list are Anthony Kiedis, David Lee Roth, and Dave Grohl for attaching themselves to bands of much more talented musicians that helped elevate their profile.
I think they should include Mike Patton for similar reasons. He’s exceptionally talented but he joined Faith No More at the right time which helped elevate Mr Bungle and allowed him to launch Ipecac and do all his other projects. He’s an example of someone getting lucky for the right reasons and making the most of it

There are dedicated Webber and lifestyle stores popping up around so there could be a market there too

It’s like that. Some things will have to wait until Monday, oh well

Left my work phone at work and everything that uses two factor has decided to log me out. So I guess I’m doing even less work from home today

I think my computer has a bug now where if you click on the time it skips the calendar and brings up your notifications instead.
I also heard the start menu is coded in a really resource intensive way so sometimes I open task manager and keep tapping the Windows button just to watch the CPU usage go up

3 of my 5 pairs of work trousers have arrived. It may be a week’s worth of trousers, but can be easily stretched out to two weeks if you wear them twice. When you have five identical pairs, who knows if you’re wearing a new pair or not?

There’s the Lego Star Wars exhibition at the museum as well

It’s interesting seeing the difference in teams as well. The team that usually wins at my regular spot is a about 8 people from one family so they have a whole range of general knowledge to draw from

I restart my work computer every time it prompts me to, which feels like every day now. Not once has the computer bricked itself. This is not the Windows 11 I was promised

It sucks so much. I found going for volume of applications over quality and finding decent recruiters is the way to go.

Good to see you. Hope you’re doing alright

Great to see people still listening to Heritage. They played The Devil’s Orchid when I saw them recently and it’s always a great feeling when they hit the bridge.
Have you listened to the new album?

Another solo trivia night and at a brand new venue. The big crowds must be because of the tine of year. Once I got everything set up it went smoothly

That sucks so much, I’m sorry to hear it

Their riffs aren’t just constant pummelling, which gives them a lot more groove. And if anything it makes such fast technical music harder because everyone needs to be so tight

A new The Zenith Passage song dropped recently if you like your extreme metal with a bit of groove

It pulls comments from Youtube videos so there’s all the possibility it might. You can access a lot of videos through Youtube Music and podcasts as well if they count as social.

Just did my first solo trivia night and there was quite a crowd, feels like a good sign for me going forward. Plus I’ll get to practice all over again tomorrow night covering at a venue I’ve never done before.

That’s a separate issue and I swear it’s a choice by the streaming services like Netflix. The best workaround I can think of there is setting your audio to the Dialogue setting or getting a sound system with a centre speaker and turning that channel up

I am begging people who make videos and put music behind them to learn about ducking or sidechain compression. It automatically turns the background music down when people are talking and it’s not that hard to implement

She still uses Chrome but Firefox isn’t that much better these days. We’ll debloat it but I can get a laptop off work for the price of a 1TB SSD so maybe it becomes a project or backup laptop.
Whatever we end up doing I think I’ll put bazzite on there for her because it’s similar to the steamdeck she already has and it’s main colour is purple, which is her favourite colour

I feel lucky that getting bored at work means I can get on those backburner projects you always wanted to get around to but never could

My girlfriend tried to use her laptop to look at some Black Friday stuff last night and she’s just getting sick of how slow it is. It ‘upgraded’ itself to W11 a while ago and that’s part of her problem. The other one is probably that it’s only running on 8gb RAM.
I think she wants to run a debloater finally but I may get her to covert over to Linux completely. If I did she would actually be more all in on Linux than me, I still have Windows on one of the drives of my main computer.

First day of swimming class where we don’t have to be in the water with the kids. It will be nice to stay dry but we’ll see how smooth things go

I’ll have a packet of peanuts ready to turn into a moth bomb if I ever think the day is coming. Thank you
