A single day of work sandwiched between 9 days off and a 3 day weekend? I'm pretty sure that today is going to be the least productive work day of the year for me. This new year is starting off strong.

Jeez, those delivery numbers are horrible. Please keep selling so I buy some Tesla shares for my 2025 Traditional IRA contribution at a discount. I want to see more red!

Felt like firing up Diablo 2 for the first time in years. It's way easier to run on Linux than Windows 10 from what I can remember. No fiddling needed - just pointing Bottles at the exe file. Running PlugY and patching to 1.14d was also trivial.

Wrong on all counts. The Switch doesn't have any exclusives, because emulation is legal, and I don't want more corporate slop.

I don't know if eyeballs can freeze, but it's nice to have more normal temperatures so I don't have to think about it.

It's the first day of a new month. When is the last time you backed up your important data or checked in on your personal finances?
