I soldered in a diode across CR1 to provide SCSI bus power so I can use a SCSI2SD v5.5 like my development machine instead of this big hard drive enclosure it came with

It already has 4 megabytes of RAM installed

The analog board looks good and none of the caps look swollen, but maybe I'll recap it later just for good measure (it's going to be on 24/7)

Anytime someone leaves a bad review for @PushoverApp@twitter.com complaining it doesn't have a particular feature, I remind myself that Instagram was bought a decade ago for a billion dollars and they still don't have an iPad app and the iPad still doesn't have a calculator

While my latest video was on the orange site yesterday, I looked for a CDN to mirror my videos to the EU and found @BunnyCDN@twitter.com. I signed up for a free trial and they were mirroring within minutes, serving 190GB of videos yesterday for free. I was happy to become a paying customer.

Is it weird to get mad at my MacBook Air for not getting hot during a video transcoding because I think that means it could be doing this faster?

TIL that Xsnow by @rckjnsn@twitter.com started out as a desk accessory for Macs and was later ported to X11, and Rick still maintains a version for modern macOS

I dug this System 6-compatible version out of a Usenet archive, though snow doesn't accumulate on top of windows like Xsnow
