      Will be going on a 2000+ mile (3200+ km) road trip this week and next. Leaving early Wednesday so wish me luck and keep EMC running smoothly for when I return!

      Sheesh... The storms rolling through this area tonight and the past few nights have been big and powerful. Hope this is not a new trend for the weather.

        It seems to be the new norm. In MA we have a tornado warning with just about every thunderstorm. An EF0 did damage in a nearby town last week. The lightning is much more frequent. I believe we are now close to 20" of rain for just this month. Not good.

        Not surprising, given that Massachusetts also has a subtropical sea (Sargasso) to the south/southwest of it.

        Not fun. That's all I have to say. Power has been knocked out here several times this year and all the utilities are underground. Not looking forward to spending money on a genny now.

        Ooo, congrats! What are the specs?
        I'm still living the Windows 10 life. Not really a fan of some of the changes in 11.

        MS is forcing Win11. Try to avoid it! My license key for it was free so I didn't want to pay for a win10 key.

        Moople. think of Windows 10, but with even less customization features. They actually removed some, such as customization to the taskbar, as one example. You cannot move it around, it is fixed at the bottom of the screen.

      Other than signs, what are glowing ink sacks used for? They seem like there could be a lot of uses but I see none.

      Today I am about 4kg lighter. Only 11kgs to my goal. Feeling good as well so I guess the diet is working.

        Are you mostly doing calorie control?

        A mix of calorie control and a new exercise program.

      You may think that getting paid to sit around and do nothing all day is great but I tell you it's not! 10 hours and not one patient on my schedule today. It felt like 10 days.

      If Thursdays are my work Friday does that mean it is technically Friday the 13th for me?

        I would say no. Many companies are experimenting with a 32-hour work week, with great results. I'll probably do the same once I open my business. There's even a bill in Congress to make it the standard full-time workweek.

        Better question:
        Does this qualify you for 2 x Fridays?

      How many days and styles of eating chicken breasts/thighs do you think I can go before I start hating chicken? It's part of my new diet to reduces cholesterol. (Sorry chickeneer, I don't mean to eat all your kind but Doctors orders!)

        It might not be possible if you like it as much as I do.

        I second what UltiPig said. I may also recommend seasoning the unbreaded chicken if it gets bland; cajun, killer hogs barbecue rub, lemon pepper, butt rub and creole are all seasonings that I enjoy! You could also try dipping them in some ketchup (although I don't recommend this if you have arthritis, given the effects of tomatoes on that).

        Thankfully I love chicken. Not as much as steak but still, it's good stuff. I have many rubs and seasonings and an assortment of healthy sides so we will see how long I go and how much weight I lose. 😀

      Anyone have any ideas about what type of Minecraft mod y'all would want if I were to start doing Fabric/Forge modding? Not saying I will make a mod but def looking into it at the moment and need direction to get started.

      My doctor said no more Ice cream for me. Need to focus on eating healthier. New goal to lose 15kg by years end.

        Good luck with your weight loss goal! RIP ice cream though.
        I ate a lot of Chick Fil A a year ago and ended up in the position of being underweight but with high cholesterol. The dietician was not impressed. 😂😅
