I talk about #retrocomputing a lot, especially #Commodore64 stuff. I also do a lot of #gardening and am trying to make good #bread and #beer. I was a professional Unix #sysadmin for nearly 25 years.
Sometimes I get up on stages and tell jokes. Don't applaud, just throw money.

@faizalr almost no wind today, that's how I got away with just a tshirt for most of the walk, despite the temperature being pretty low overall.
@peemee definitely live from the mountaintop!
Looking back down to the southern end of the Prom and seeing all the walking tracks makes my feet itch. I've walked most of the main ones down there at some point but damn, I'm not done yet.

I visited Gippsland’s most frequent public transport service today, and wrote a blog post about it! https://alisonsramblings.wordpress.com/2022/07/01/gippslands-most-frequent-public-transport-service/

A programmer is a machine for turning coffee into opinions on mechanical keyboards
I have been doing this IT thing for about 30 years now and this morning it took me far too long to figure out that the computer in front of me would work a lot better if I plugged it in.
So, I guess that's the kind of day I've got coming up.
@lolroy ooh that looks like a nice colour combo for sure.

@futzle if this analogy holds, brace yourself for a gap of about 20 years between the next couple of visits.
@joel oh hey they've pulled out all the stops and found a playlist on Spotify called "Mexican Fiesta Party Music" if anyone wants to join in.
@joel on a Bluetooth speaker in the corner, yes.
My company is doing a "Mexican fiesta" themed mid year event and it is going exactly how you think it is.
