Ever explored a new hobby and just as you begin to find your footing, you discover that half the community is declaring it’s over / the worst possible time to embrace the hobby? 😅
Post screenshot from a comics forum: 

On 5/4/2021, GHFoster said: (quoting CGC comic grading)

Do any of you submitting have any idea what's going on with the hobby right now? 1 mean.......even the slightest hint?

I did not become a type designer for the fame or the Ferraris. It’s a slow, difficult, unreliable job. You can make a living from it, but there’s a good chance you won’t. I became a type designer because I care about type, and because I want to leave the landscape of typography better than I […]

feeling good about my “weird vehicles of personal significance” homelab host naming scheme How do you name your hosts? Pets? Cattle? #SelfHosted #homelab
mobile screenshot showing 

A list of internal hostnames from my homelab:

- brat (as in Subaru BRAT, a mini truck I had)
- gnx (as in Buick 231 v6 grand national, a powerhouse muscle car I had)
- saturn (as in plastic body coupe, first car)
- scargo (as in Nissan Scargo, a bizarre delivery vehicle my dad borrowed from work once)
- transsport (as in Pontiac Trans Sport “Dustbuster”-style minivan, which we had)
