Finally rid of #BitDefender #GravityZone, their useless tech support, and even more useless MDR!

I'm so tired. Did not sleep well again. Anakin must have heard a noise during the night because he was barking a bit. Didn't really get back to sleep after that. 😴

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Sorry to hear that. Bad night here as well. Definitely dragging this morning.

Anybody have any fun plans this week or this coming weekend?

Do you have any pre-Christmas traditions?

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Planning on heading to North Carolina on Saturday to spend Christmas at the MIL's.

No real traditions here. I'm not a big fan of holidays in general.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Thanks! I'm sure it'll be fun. Got a few brewery stops planned while there.

Would anyone like to buy a Pixel 6a before I list it on Swappa?

$150 in excellent condition.

#ForSale #GooglePixel #teamPixel

Edit: it's been sold!

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Bootloader unlockable?

stevendbrady,

@travis I enjoy that this post calls out the user's laziness, but it's also about exclusivity, which iPhone users enjoy. It makes them feel special. Remember the bellyaching when Instagram was opened up to Android users?

So my daughter has a habit of wrapping her retainer up in a napkin when she's eating. Today she left it wrapped up in a napkin on the counter long after she finished eating lunch and it got thrown away and the trash got taken out. So tomorrow I'll be calling the orthodontist to buy a replacement.

It's always something...

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Been there. Ours searched through multiple trash bags at school before calling home to tell us it was gone.

I've officially hit the age where I own thermal insulated socks so I can do things like ... ride in a car.

I always feel bad when I tell a user I need on their computer for "a few minutes" and then end up taking an hour or more on it.

Need to get up and make coffee ... but Superchic[k] just came on the radio ... and nostalgia.

Good morning and happy Friday!

What have you all got going on this weekend?

I'm taking the kids to holiday British bingo tonight at the ciderworks. My wife will be at ladies craft night. Tomorrow we're taking the kids to buy Christmas gifts for their friends and each other.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Tonight the family and I are heading to a brewery opening in Frederick, then gonna check out the boats.

Saturday is Stout Fest at Crooked Crab, the kid has a school dance, and we have an ugly sweater party to attend.

Sunday we're headed to National Harbor for the Titanic the Exhibition. Maybe the Christmas Village in the Baltimore Inner Harbor after that, depending on the weather.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple RAK Brewing. It's in the same space that used to have Housecat Brewing, then Smoketown Creekside.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Thanks! We shall try!

Oh good, it’s our Christmas… bat? Venomous moth? Alien nightmare creature?

stevendbrady,

@jemal Not sure, but when I clicked on the picture it definitely tried to swallow my soul.

I feel like Giphy used to have a better selection of Mystery Men GIFs.

Rearranged my home office this morning so I could use my standing desk again. I've been dealing with some back pain in the recent months when I stand too long, and I know it's mainly been since I've been unable to use my standing desk (new desktop computer, cords too short), and the dog passed away (no daily long walks). Now I just need to set myself some standing reminders.

Good morning everyone! I hope you have a wonderful Monday. ☕

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple I hope the same for you.

Just setup my wife's company on #Netbird for remote access.

stevendbrady,

@Shoesmithlc It's a Wireguard mesh VPN service similar to Tailscale and Zerotier and Netmaker. Just doing RDP over mesh VPN and phasing out TeamViewer.

Why is freeze dried candy suddenly a huge thing?

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple I've wondered the same!

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple I actually don't remember ever trying it.

Attended the #Towson, #Maryland Christmas tree lighting this evening. #BaltimoreCounty

I don't understand paying hundreds of dollars to go to one of these massive comedy shows and sit a mile away. At that point you might as well watch it on TV.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Easier to hear when it's on TV anyways.

Testing and rollout of a corporate EDR is a lot of work. It was exhausting in 2020 when we implemented BitDefender, and it's exhausting now testing CrowdStrike Falcon.

stevendbrady,

@jcrabapple Morning.
