Jordo @jordo.zone · 07/10/2026I've heard from several people today that I haven't talked to or seen in several years. Is there something in the air today? 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 06/10/2026I unfortunately am a data hoarder. Deleting things forever scares me. It’s a bad habit I’m trying to break. 🫠 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 06/10/2026This is going to become pretty crucial as I’m so trying to migrate away from my current email provider. The less “crap” that has to migrate over, the better. 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 06/10/2026Attempt 1 at migrating my Bluesky from one VPS to another: ❌ I think I found a good guide though, so I guess we’ll try it again! 🤞 010
Jordo @jordo.zone · 05/10/2026I’m finally down to 0 unread texts, unread Facebook messages, and pending Facebook friend requests. Now… tackling the 14,000+ unread emails? I’m not sure that will ever happen. But one can hope, right? 100
Jordo @jordo.zone · 02/10/2026We still have all of the ones you made for us scattered around our home. :) 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 29/09/2026A world map we just purchased has the Gulf of Mexico listed as “Gulf of America (Gulf of Mexico)” Good thing there isn’t anything a sticky note and pen can’t fix. 🤭 010
Jordo @jordo.zone · 27/09/2026Everyone (including me) is too busy complaining about RAM and storage prices, but the REAL atrocity are the prices of Blu-Ray drives. 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 25/09/2026Happy wedding anniversary to the love of my life! @straaubs.garden 💝 030
Jordo @jordo.zone · 25/09/2026As always, Server Part Deals came in clutch with the best price/TB - AND they come with a 2 year warranty. In this economy? I'll take it. 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 25/09/2026Do you want high capacity at a low cost? Renewed & 3 month warranty. Do you want a brand new drive with a decent warranty? Hundreds of dollars more. Do you want a brand new high capacity drive? Time to sign the loan paperwork. 100

Jordo @jordo.zone · 21/09/2026The owner of a company I worked at did this with a communal workbench (while I was in the office one day a week during covid). He posted it on a public forum with like 10k+ members. That one hurt. 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 08/09/2026Successfully "modded" @straaubs.garden's Xbox 360 to have a 250GB SSD instead of a 19 year old 20GB hard drive. :) 120
Jordo @jordo.zone · 01/09/2026I love showing & teaching people about this stuff... so if you have any questions, PLEASE let me know. We'd love to show you sometime. ☺️ 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 01/09/2026We use a password manager! We only have to remember one (very secure) password, then we store randomized passwords inside the password manager. I've used a few over the years. The vast majority of that time we used one called KeePass (locally hosted) but we're actively moving to a different one. 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 11/08/2026Oh no. My Jellyfin NAS is 69% full. To maintain the funny number, I can never add or remove any media ever again! 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 07/08/2026I’m cleaning up the vast digital footprint I’ve built over the last 15+ years. It’s such a relief to finally watch old accounts get deleted, reused passwords changed to be unique, and enabling 2FA on everything that accepts it. There’s a lot of work ahead of me, but it will be worth it! 110
Jordo @jordo.zone · 26/07/2026Late update: They corrected the situation and put the plebeian toilet paper back the regular bathrooms. I'll be citing this incident on my exit interview. 000

Jordo @jordo.zone · 28/04/2026I’m also open to the elusive Pepsi Spire. I’m not convinced they actually exist though. Can someone point me in the right direction for getting one? TIA! 000
Jordo @jordo.zone · 27/04/2026Does anyone know how I can purchase, and keep stocked, a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine for our house? TIA! 100
Jordo @jordo.zone · 22/04/2026Good news, I challenged it (there was no reason given for the denial) and it was ultimately approved. Sometimes you just have to be an asshole. 🤠 010
Jordo @jordo.zone · 20/04/2026Having PTO denied because one other person is scheduled off (which wasn’t approved when I submitted my request) should be illegal. 110
