2022

Just had my second UPS failure in my home network rack this year. #everythingisdown

It appears the new iPhone 14 Pro Space Black finish is the same as my beloved Series 5 watch, so totally doing that.

Unclear to me why Apple can’t sync material finishes across lines.

It seems like Apple engineers who were sent home in 2020 discovered that it’d be really cool if their products worked outside.

Apple isn’t saying you’ll live forever if you wear an Apple Watch, but they aren’t saying you’ll die wearing one either.

This weekend my wife’s best friend is literally living out one of my worst nightmare scenarios.

She dropped her iPhone in a lake.

The week before the new iPhone announcements.

Artemis not going to space today. 😏

My seven year old just called me out for describing someone as a “red head” 🤔

Kansas recently legalized online sports betting. Every social media app now thinks that’s all I want to see.

Actually I’m so tired drinking the coffee might require too much effort. I hope I’m not getting sick.

“Sporting KC is the first MLS team to ever score three unanswered goals in the first half in three consecutive games.”

Yet we are in last place 🤦‍♂️

Don’t be a dick.

I’m tired of Bluetooth shit just only working right when it feels like it. It’s 2022, I shouldn’t need cables running everywhere but I’m about to replace my “Magic Mouse 2” with whatever cheap wired mouse I can find.

Who among us hasn’t hung onto nuclear secrets for longer than they should have?

My favorite feature of FreeBSD seems to be when I change my password and can’t login via SSH anymore.

If you want something run right, you’ve got to compile it yourself.

One win, one loss. Tomorrow is another day to learn and try again.

OH: soccer isn’t just about running and kicking, it’s about thinking… if you just want to run around, hit something, and then be told what to do… go play football.

Feeling fancy. Got my first ever pedicure today. 👣

Went and took the two littles for the second COVID shot, and who should be there volunteering but Ms Collins, my freshman biology teacher.

Raise your hand if you personally have NOT had COVID.

Sometime I feel like the only one. 🙋‍♂️

You know in hindsight, maybe letting nine lawyers in black robes decide what rights we have, based on their interpretation of what a bunch of guys in white wigs (many of who were totally cool with owning other people) wrote down two centuries ago, isn’t such a great system. 🤔

There’s two wolves inside of me. One really wants to overcomplicate things and the other is all about KISS.

THEY ARE CONSTANTLY ARGUING ABOUT MY HOME NETWORK.

Totally just text my macOS login password to a friend of mine, because Universal Control had focus to the text field on my iPad. 🫣

Welp.

It would be great if the “keep me logged in” function of the new myVW app would … ya know … keep me logged in.

Just sitting around wishing I was powerful enough to buy anything I wanted by convincing Morgan Stanley to loan me all the money to buy it.

Bought a new wedding ring. After 14 years of marriage and life my ring finger can no longer live within its constraints.

New one is 1.5 sizes bigger 😆

I actually signed up for CNN+

Ask me anything.

Anytime I’m asked to provide a bio for work things like a VMUG it’s so … generic.

I’d much rather go all in and say “Michael tweets too much, mostly reaction GIFS, drinks too much, mostly coffee, watches Star Trek all day and thinks any one who eats Miracle Whip is a monster.”
