Unearthed audio: Trump tells Tim Walz in 2020 he is โvery happyโ with his handling of George Floyd protests: โI fully agree with the way he handled it... [Tim Walz is an] excellent guyโ
(Trump is now trying to criticize Walz over the same issue)

First time designing a kitchen. Our kitchen.
Itโs been a long 3 months with a lot of ups and downs. Tons of little and big decisions, changes, picking colors, materials, layout.
But finally seeing this completed feels amazing.

Here's the kitchen before the remodel. We also decided to change the floors throughout with engineered hardwood and a cork underlayment.

Excited to announce AddGlow's $1.7 million pre-seed round co-led by @pboyce and @chudson, with participation from StoryHouse, @tristanwalker, @anthemos, @kauf, @NikkiFarb and more โจ
There are lots of commerce related conversations on 3rd party sites, mainly Reddit and Facebook Groups. SubReddits include Food (~24 million), Gadgets (22 million), Male Fashion Advice (~6 million), and Makeup Addiction (~5 million). But by not hosting communities on their own websites, brands miss out on crucial data that they could leverage to increase revenue.
Excited to continue building with Yelena, @jarques and Kingston! ๐

Honestly surprised to see how awful my experience has been with @Neweggโs customer service.
I ordered some new case fans because mine were failing. The order got delayed, understandable, Black Friday. But when I got the order, it was a power bank and not the fans.

It was a no. They have to first get the item back, that I didnโt order, so they can send me what I actually ordered.
But somehow, their mistake was now my problem. Fine. Iโll ship the thing back and wait.
Theyโve received the item.

But, now itโll take an additional 3 days to process, and another day to ship out.
One representative told me they would expedite it, another told me they canโt expedite it. So no idea whom to believe.
What a nightmare.
I donโt want my money back, I just want the fans.

If you are planning a thanksgiving with friends or family, donโt forget some amazing wine.
Need some help? I wrote a list back in 2019 that I think can still be helpful.

If your car has a key fob, highly suggest a faraday box to keep them in.

Gone in 61 seconds.
The keys were left near the front door.

Another tip for skin care products: do not overpay for those ridiculously expensive moisturizers, evening lotions or serums.
Brands like CeraVe are very well priced and works just as well, if not better, than their more expensive counterparts.

SKIN CARE TIPS NOBODY TELLS MEN: A THREAD
(These obviously apply for women too but it is uncool for men to care about skin health for some reason?)

So I covered some software, let me cover some of the hardware a little bit!
This is no massive server rack by any means, but I am happy with the current setup.
Let me share the current setup ๐

Been a pretty fun few weeks in terms of building out a homelab.
Primary motivation was to own / host our own private data. That means no more Dropbox or other syncing / backup services.
It has also meant diving deep and improving our home network security.
Some tools:

Though this'll most likely change, but for our wireless I run the ASUS AX5700 set in Access Point mode. It's fast & reliable.
Supports WiFi 6, and is even a great option without the other great.

Newest addition is the ZimaBoard, think of it as an x86 version of the Raspberri Pi.
This currently runs our Adguard Home, DNS and some other non-critical services. Can easily attach storage and use this as a media server.
