I usually pick up some socks when I travel, but the youth influenced me to get this instead

Going to the dentist has changed a lot since I was a kid

2023 day 20: Emperor Palpatine in an ugly Christmas sweater. That’s Death Star II on his chest, so maybe today wraps up Endor. He also has a cozy mug and some Sith Lightning coming out of his other hand (maybe to warm the coco in the mug)

LEGO minifigures with festive elements, the foreground figure wearing a red Christmas sweater and holding a cup, and a background figure dressed in green, holding a cookie. Snowy backdrop and various LEGO pieces in the scene.

Have to keep the ladder in the living room because the cats like to climb it

I'm not a huge Disney person, but Robin Hood is special to me. Probably my 2nd favorite Disney film (after my favorite, The Emperor's New Groove).

That amazing hand drawn animation in 1973 -- the songs, voices, comedy (it's SO funny) all of it. Amazing film. I first saw it when I was pretty young, as I was born in 1980. And I recently rewatched it - it holds up!

And this year is Robin Hood's 50th anniversary. Wow. Jerrod Maruyama did this awesome commemorative piece for the occasion -- 50 merry years. Love it.

mcuellar,

@jake4480 this one has to be my number one!

The office had the annual Zoom costume contest today. Mine was a bust

mcuellar, to firefox

In between steps in the Sunday Pizza, I've been switching my work computer from Chrome to . I've used Firefox on my personal system for ages, but have stayed on Chrome at work because it has all of my work tools.

mcuellar,

One thing keeping me in Chrome was my extensions. I'm logging into at least a half dozen different orgs all day every day. Glad to see that Salesforce ORGanizer is also in https://organizer.enree.co/

mcuellar,

Nice to see Inspector in also https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/salesforce-inspector/

Another nice thing about is how nice and quiet the day starts

I’ve had more than enough of 11. All I ever use this computer for is to open a web browser. But maybe this way I can play a game or two

mcuellar,

@jake4480 @faylen I do have another - even older - laptop with Linux. It’s doing just fine!

Saw an article about how easy it is to move all your Instagram photos to Pixelfed (download/upload the archive on PC, you can choose which photos transfer over or not, etc.) Seriously thinking about trying it.

mcuellar,

@jake4480 I did not have an instagram to migrate, but have been experimenting with @pixelfed for a few weeks. Think I will stick with it

Today’s workout was a hike 280 meters up the San Giovanni Fortress in 30 degree sun. Very nice view of Kotor and the cruise ships brining everyone to old town (UNESCO World Heritage site)

Chicory coffee Au Lait at Cafe Du Monde. Hot. And some beignets to go with the powdered sugar

mcuellar,

Checked off oyster and crawfish po’ boys and étouffée at lunch

mcuellar,

The youth is a big penguin fan, so spent the afternoon at the aquarium (they have air conditioning) and stayed to catch the last feeding

We’ll, this is new to me. United won’t let me check into my flight unless I pay extra to check a bag. >:-(

Text from airline employing me to check in to my flight online It looks like you haven't checked in for your flight to New Orleans yet. Check in now: https://sb-bigshoulders.b-cdn.net/media_attachments/files/110/560/289/813/645/473/original/8e462a8bca09cc94.jpegok forward to seeing you soon!

mcuellar, to food

No today because I’m accompanying @Katylou in for surgery and a practicing some sympathetic fasting. (I did get myself some hospital coffee though. Drank it in front of her too.)

mcuellar,

Wheelchairs have changed also

mcuellar,

Back home with cats

What's the best* online community—I include things like work Slacks, project-specific communities, and communities formed on platforms or in the cracks between platforms—that you've ever been a part of? Don't overthink it, what's the thing that comes instantly to mind?

  • Most fun, least terrible, most generative, whatever.

Disclosure: I'll never quote you without asking, but I am in research mode for a thing that will be public someday, in case that matters.

Boosts super-welcome. 💫

mcuellar,

@kissane zoom. It has all the chat rooms like slack or discord, and not much to overwhelm. But I guess the difference is that it is a work community and I like the people I work with, and just hang out in the fun channels I like.
