Some of my Meshtastic nodes I converted to MeshCore nodes now. Pretty simple to do. MC has such a bigger base in my area. Went from like 2-3 people on Meshtastic over the last year to over 300 on MeshCore in a matter of hours after switching over.

I’m getting real fucking sick of hearing about Israel this and Israel that. These politicians, on both sides, care more about Israel than America.

Working with ChatGPT to create a personal landing page for myself. Here’s what I’ve got so far. I literally just tell it small adjustments here and there and it does everything but the DNS. Pretty impressive. brandon.hartung.vet

Black Bean Chalupa at Taco Bell is now $6.69 at my location. That’s the world we live in. Absolutely insane when it broke $5 not too long ago.

I connected my Apple Music account to ChatGPT and it tells me it can only make playlists of 25 songs or less. 👎 I ended up having it split four 25 lists out then I had to manually add them all together. Defeats the purpose. And that playlist overall ended up being meh 🫤

Are the new Throwback license plates already being manufactured and sent out? I order about a month ago and still waiting.

Every time I do anything with the calendar it takes anywhere from 5-20+ seconds to load/save/view. I’ve been saying this for over 1.5yrs now. I’ve tried both the regular and beta versions and the same thing happens with each.

What do I need to do to get one of them Proton Supporter Hoodies sent to the US? I’ve been a Visionary subscriber for like 8 years now and I need that hoodie! Willing to pay extra to get it sent over. DM me 🔐

Carbon River in Orting, WA Photo taken at 12:23pm 12/11/2025 They’re going door-to-door telling everyone on the river side of Daffodil Ave NE to leave their homes (all the houses in orange). We’re about a block from the area, slightly higher ground.

A muddy riverside trail in Orting, WA on a rainy day, with the Carbon River running dangerously high and close to overtopping the levee. Two dogs stand on the trail looking toward the swollen, fast-moving water: a white/grey Norwegian Elkhound on the left and a brown/black German Shepherd on the right, both wearing harnesses. Bare winter trees line the riverbank in the background.

Very sad to learn that SiriusXM has done away with the Holiday Chill-Out channel. It was so good. Christmas is ruined.

iOS always corrects the swipe text of my name “Brandon” to either “Branson” or Brandon’s” I’ve reset the keyboard, I’ve set keyboard replacements, I tap the correct option on the keyboard every time Nothing works

6 hours with the iPhone Air: -Size, weight, and feel = Premium 💎 -One-handed pick up from desk/table is much easier than the Max Pro ✋ -Wobble from the lens still exists 😕 -Camera is good enough for me 📸 -Battery TBD ⌚️ I’ve always been a case-less person and the Air is perfect for it!

Absolutely insane that he uses the military this way. Within 10 seconds of watching that clip yesterday I knew the soldiers in the background were picked out to be there.

Taco Bell’s sauce packets are different than the bottled sauce you can buy in the store. I bought the fire sauce in the bottle today and it tastes nothing like the fire sauce in the packets. Very disappointing

Brandon @bsky.scorpii.io · 07/02/2025

I figured. But you’re right, it’s _steal_ a great deal. I signed up!

Brandon @bsky.scorpii.io · 07/02/2025

$6 sounds like a great deal. Does it remove ads at that price? (I’m guessing not) Still may sign up.

Beowulf and Kitrin enjoying the snow last weekend at Rasar State Park. 🐾❄️

Beowulf, a Norwegian Elkhound, and Kitrin, a German Shepherd, are sitting in a snowy field. Beowulf, on the left, is wearing a teal harness and has his tongue out, looking happy. Kitrin, on the right, is sitting upright with her ears perked and a content expression, wearing a black harness. Both dogs appear to be enjoying the snow.

This new version of Goddess by BANKS is sick 🎶💯 #MusicSky

Screenshot of the Apple Music app displaying the album Goddess: Unplugged by BANKS. The album cover features a red-toned image of a woman’s face partially obscured with artistic smears. Below the album title, it is described as a “stripped-back reimagining of the alt-pop star’s debut album.” The tracklist includes songs such as “Alibi,” “Goddess,” and “Waiting Game.” A music player at the bottom shows the track “Bedroom Wall” currently playing.

Is there a moderation list or something that I can subscribe to which mutes all the keywords related to sports? All team names, player names, etc.

000

Brandon @bsky.scorpii.io · 07/12/2024

That would be nice, but with American’s short attention span, I don’t see anything significant happening. Unless of course, another very similar situation were to occur in the near future.

Brandon @bsky.scorpii.io · 07/12/2024

By the way, never pay full price for the service. I just signed back up again for the $99 for 3 years deal. $33/yr is worth it for me. App access and in vehicle (actual satellite) access.

Very smart. Wish I would have thought of doing this earlier. 😔

Ridiculous take. Let’s see how it plays out.

CO & MN (where I grew up): No right turn ever on a red arrow. Period. WA: Feel free to turn right on a red arrow—just make a full stop first. Me to WA: What’s the point of having a red arrow if it functions like a regular red light? Just get rid of arrows altogether. 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like binge drinking, but rebranded by a marketing team to grab more views. In other words, this article is garbage. In defense of them, I didn’t actually read it. In defense of myself, it’s because the title is trash.

Probably right after he challenges Bluesky to a cage match on Mars. Bluesky accepts, and then Musk immediately whines about it being unfair and sues ATproto directly.
