“I want to go out!!”

Great show by the way.

Eero Secure does a pretty decent job by itself but addresses can be blacklisted as well (hi Roku). If I had more money, time, and could figure out my double NAT, I’d probably switch from Secure to a Firewalla device, probably a Purple. Overall the eero’s have been a great, I don’t have to think about it, mesh system. Of course you have to be okay with Amazon owning them.

This won’t be popular but I haven’t had a stability problem on my home Windows 11 pro (server) machine. I disabled online login during first boot setup so maybe that’s why … my network handles telemetry shenanigans so I’m not worried about that. Never bothered to put a Linux on it, which was the plan, since it’s not failed once, it’s been a few years since it was spooled up. 🤷🏼‍♂️

This is probably the most iconic for sure.

You can drive through Aspen in 5 min. It’s tiny.

On the flip side a lot of super informational videos do a poor job at conveying that information. That’s arguably as bad.

Ah, good ole performance punishment.

lol, supposed to be lap. Leaving it as is to keep your comment funny.

Bad PRV (Pressure Reducing Valve). They only last so long. If you have high water pressure (over 120psi) coming in they last a few years tops. If that’s the case, get one with 2 diagrams and it’ll last you 10 years at a minimum.

Neither of my cats are like this. One is an absolute attention whore. If I’m sitting here always wants to be on my lap. At dinner he watches until I lean back (indicating I’m done) and then will try to jump on my. He’s sweet but very smothering.

Store bought: Tillamook Chocolate Peanut Butter

Ice cream shop: Carl’s Frozen Custard in VA. It’s pretty famous in the US. Easily the best frozen custard anywhere. They’re still using their old Electo-Freeze machines to make it. I get their chocolate vanilla swirl or strawberry. So smooth and creamy.

First thing I got told when I moved from NoVA to CO as a manager was people work to play. That has proven true time and time again. Snows a lot, everyone calls out and hits the slopes. Gorgeous day and they’ve just recently stocked a favorite fishing spot? Calls out to fish. Hunting season and got one of the lottery elk tags? Puts vacation in or unpaid time off since they’re extremely hard to get and goes off trying to bag and elk ok the western slope. Recently upgraded your Jeep? They’re definitely taking it off road on a mountain trail stat. Yeah, we have a ton of fun out here.

Teams boards (shared to dos)

Planner (personal lists)

Writing it down on a sticky note (priority)

Servicetitan Task Management (ugh, not a huge fan but required).

Monday (shared and I really like this one but it’s only for a particular dept’s needs).

I was just thinking this yesterday. I went from hating Teams, to liking it better than Slack, and then actually finding it super convenient.

I do really wish we could put chats and threads into folders. I have so many in the sidebar … so many.

Oh I’m sorry, weddings and prom are still very formal, true. But a lot are western wear these days. Good point.

Eastern and Western US work ideals clash all the time. I’m in CO and we are definitely a we work to play state not we live to work and I haven’t seen an actual suit worn by anyone other than a lawyer around here, even at church. As soon as someone from the east coast shows up it’s painfully obvious. We don’t have much tolerance for their go, go, go ways and usually show them a great time and a relaxed vibe to relax them a bit. They’re always perplexed at how we can perform so well with such a relaxed attitude. Doesn’t usually click that it’s correlated.

This is the real reason. It continues to exceed expectations in profits and honestly, it’s got almost every climate you can think of. It’s a pretty country.
