How good is the battery life on my #Asus #Zenfone 11? I spent all day at #Disneyland, leaving at close. Relatives with iPhones had their batteries die around noon to mid-afternoon. Disneyland sells portable chargers everywhere. I never charged my phone once, used it all throughout the day (pretty much have to run Disneyland app), didn't use any power saving mode, etc, and when I got back in around 1:30am, I still had 55% left.

In the line to Rise of the Resistance with my son now and I'm not sure which of us is more excited to go on it.

Nintendo, Atari, Sega, Capcom, and Konami do a joint retro gaming theme park together.

I did something today I never thought I would do. I got my first #Gretsch #guitar. I traded the Stagemaster for it. I would describe both the visuals and tone as "shiny".

I might put a pic or two of it on my Pixelfed in a couple of days.

This morning, I woke up the kids by playing Mars, the Harbinger of War by Gustav Holst. Sounded like we were getting attacked by the Empire.

Pound for pound, the whammy system on a #Fender Stratocaster is as good as it gets. I'm obviously not saying it's better than everything else in every way, but I'd take it over a Bigsby or Floyd Rose for any #guitar that I'm also in charge of tuning and changing strings on.

The #Kubernetes #Python library is over here making lists not iterable and harming my sanity this morning.

TypeError: 'V1NamespaceList' object is not iterable

Remember that #Python dicts can have tuples as keys! Consider a dict with (x,y) keys instead of nested lists for a grid. It simplifies sparse grids, "resizes" are automatic, it doesn't matter where (0,0) is, and you can use negative positions:

Selling on Craigslist so far is a lot of people texting if it's still available, then never replying again when you say yes, except the ones that do reply after that are scammers with a pitch for some convoluted payment scheme.

Apparently being in my 40s means I can no longer sleep or sit in a number of different positions without somehow injuring my back for days, weeks, or months at a time.

Another thing that's different from my childhood:

How ubiquitous the #ReadersDigest was. It was in every doctor's office and in as many homes.

I don't remember the last time I saw a Readers Digest.
