After 3 - 4 months of searching at every store possible, we were finally able to find the new Coffee Mate Dirty Soda online at Walmart, so we ordered it.
It arrived today and the wife and I decided to try it in Dr. Pepper, which it says is the best, and she tried it with Diet Coke.
The version with the Dr. Pepper came out the best, just as it did when we tried Sonic's version of Dirty Soda with Dr. Pepper, Diet Coke and sweet tea.
The wife and I decided to go ahead and mow all 4 yards today since our next door neighbor was going down to mow his sisters yard(3 houses down). That way we get everything mowed, can do the weed eating and everything else before we go on vacation next week.
It was a bit hot, but not too terribly bad. Though it's only going to get much hotter over the coming months.
It's a new week, so let's all discuss what we did over the weekend and what the week ahead has in store for us.
For me, it's the usual work stuff today. I didn't do much of anything over the weekend except go to dinner with my cousins fiance as he stopped by for a bit. Always good to see him as he's super fun to be around.
Played a bit of Ghost of Tsushima and Diablo IV, and was lazy all weekend.
@cliffwade The hardest part was getting it installed as it wasn’t in the package manager of the distribution I’m using. But once I got it installed, it surprisingly just worked (no futzing with drivers or config files needed). Was able to listen to FM radio stations, NOAA weather radio, air traffic control for the nearby airport, and some local ham activity.
I am now about 5 hours into Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on PC and absolutely enjoying the game so far.
The graphics are beyond amazing. The combat is super smooth and fights with enemies can be tough at times if you're not careful. I love the open world and being able to explore things on your own in a lot of ways. Definitely glad I picked this game up.
@Abyssnauta Graphics are FREAKING AMAZING! Game play is fun so far, but I'm only just an hour or so into the game. Haven't really done much beyond the opening stuff.
This is definitely an interesting read about the moon getting its own time zone.
It actually makes perfect sense in so many ways. I really hope since the moon time zone won't honor DST(Daylight Savings Time) that this helps us here on Earth get rid of it as well and not honor it going forward.
@cliffwade the issue is, that I often write time-sensitive programs and apps - Android launchers, custom loggers, alarms, network stuff, etc.
moon TZ sounds crazy to me because from an engineering point of view
@bpavuk I totally get what you are saying. I work for a major Android launcher myself and have for 8 1/2 years. A timezone on the moon seems weird, but interesting.
@beardedtechguy and myself are looking for someone that is willing, able and has time to help us with infrastructure related things.
We are looking to fully self host our instance so that we have full control over everything related to the instance. This means we need/want someone that has experience running a self hosted instance and has the time to help Kyle with things when he's not around to do various things. (cont...)
If you feel you are that person, or you know someone that has the time and the knowledge for this, please reach out as soon as possible as we'd like to make this happen sooner rather than later.
You would be working closely with Kyle on getting everything setup and running and helping fix any issues if/when they occur.
Please, only serious enquiries about this and please boost for maximum exposure to the #Fediverse (cont...)
@beardedtechguy and myself are looking for someone to help us grow #AllThingsTech in every way possible. This includes our blog, our instance, our wiki, our Discord and our community in general.
We're looking for someone that is super active here on Mastodon and will continue to do so going forward.
We're looking for someone that is willing to talk about the instance, advertise the instance and recruit for the instance if possible. (cont...)
@armerpunkt Not really sure what the full plans are right now. We just want to fully host things ourselves so that we have full control over everything and can expand things at a likely cheaper price if/when needed.
We want to be able to change things like max character length for posts, max options for polls and stuff like that.
So we're looking for someone that can and will help us maintain it as Kyle doesn't have all the time to do so.
@cliffwade@armerpunkt Sorry, yesterday was one hell of a day. But as Cliff mentioned, we just want to self host to have better control of the features. I’d like to have another person on hand that can help when I’m not available.
We have looked at hetzner, but we have our other properties on DO.
