Rode my bike for the first time to work today. Great experience, but it could be better. I need to get a bike rack to hold my stuff. Its no fun riding with a heavy backpack full of clothes, my lunch and my work laptop...

If politicians, or anyone really, believed #TikTok executives when they said China wasn’t accessing private U.S. user data stored on U.S. servers, I have a bridge to sell you. Wait, multiple bridges. I have a gaggle of bridges to sell you.
Got a new work laptop today (MacBook Air M1), amazed at how small, thin and fast it is. Hopefully this one lasts for a while, and doesn't develop random Bluetooth bugs 🫤

Hey #Chicago there’s an Extreme Heat and Humidity Advisory in effect from today to Wed evening. This shit’s no joke, stay indoors as much as possible, drink all the fluids, etc. Be careful out there.
Work MacBook Pro bit the dust today, only a few months after AppleCare expired, coincidence?
With gas close to $6/gallon, I've decided to finally make regular #biking to work a reality. Will need to ensure I have enough time to get to the office in the morning, shower, and get ready before my morning meetings start at 8am. Wish me luck...

If you would like to directly help people within Ukraine, this sourdough bakery in the centre of the country may merit your support.
Patreon donations fund free bread for refugees, local territorial defence units and on-duty police. While most places are raising prices at the moment, they reduced their regular prices by 30% to help people cope.
This is validated by a relative in Ukraine, and I am not connected to the bakery in any way.

Don’t say “there are no alternatives” when what you really mean is “I can’t be bothered to use the alternatives.”
Love the idea of building my own bike, similar to building my own PC. Are there any sites out there that help you mix and match components, similar to PC Part Picker? https://pcpartpicker.com/

Wow its a real pain in the butt to follow anyone on this service given the additional steps required for federated services... I'm fairly technical and its a pain for me. I can't imagine what a non-techy person would do...
I'm back after some time off.
