Thanks Rush for the reminder. I really needed it today.

@HistoryDean Yeah I get it but don’t be afraid to bring up his words of wisdom. To paraphrase Rush, It’s not glomming on if it happened. What’s amazing is everyone I’ve heard from the EIB network is amazing. He planted many seeds and that has been very fruitful. Keep up the good work.

@send2devnull Thanks, Rich. Today is the day he returned his talent on loan from God. A lot of people who never knew him have made nice careers pretending they were the secret of his success. I guess that's why I don't like to glom onto it.

@HistoryDean at the 14:30 mark on Derek’s podcast which you are guest hosting, (And doing a great job) for Presidents’ Day, you asked if anyone still wants to hear about Rush, Yes, always.

@nikitabier Shouldn’t the woman be doing the scrubbing 🧽?

I feel like if I focused on this for one year I could be performing at an Olympic level.

@jameszimmermann Having a Family and being Happily Married makes you want to fight for those things. Being focused on your career makes it easier to cut bait when things get hard in your marriage and family. got his your priorities are focused on what kind of Son-in-Law do I want.

My 16yo takes college classes online, one professor had the kids post "what do you want to be when you grow up" to the class message board. A boy in her class wrote "I don't care what I do as long as I'm happily married and a father," my 16yo said it was "so sweet" and started gushing. Naturally I chimped out right there at the dinner table, told her that while it may sound sweet, a man without purpose is a man she'll grow to hate. Reminded her that men are responsible for building the world we live in, fighting for resources and protecting our families from evil, and that any teenage boy who's all "lovey dovey" and not actively preparing himself for life on the battlefield is someone she should run from. Of course she's learned from me that men can be sensitive and that we're the real romantics, but a man without a warrior spirit is mostly useless.

@NobodymrRobert I feel like they cut the trim wrong and turned a frown upside down 🙃

Is this the new style. There it is. Do you like it.

@GovPritzker Why ?

Kristi Noem has to go. Gregory Bovino has to go. Stephen Miller has to go.

@DrAlmarielao I have 50 foot trees but I wonder what the wind 💨 load is on that monster

He finally buys his dream house. Fresh paint, new keys, big plans. But within the first week, he and his wife realize the neighbor’s dogs bark constantly, loud enough to keep them awake at night. Hoping to solve it peacefully, he goes next door to talk it out. Instead of finding common ground, the conversation spirals into an argument. Days later, the neighbor responds by building a **15-foot-high fence**, completely blocking their view and casting a shadow over their yard. Not knowing where to file a complaint, the new homeowner calls the local news to tell his side of the story. It’s wild how quickly a dream home can turn into daily stress. Good neighbors can make a place feel like paradise, and bad blood can make it feel like a prison. Sometimes, the real value of a home isn’t the house itself… it’s who lives next door. When neighbor disputes escalate like this, where’s the line between personal property rights and retaliation?

I would never advise anyone not to do that

@vxunderground The only correct answer is Microsoft Bob

Steve Ballmer is brilliant.

@AsianDawn4 The sleeper has awakened!!!! I fought with my Wife and Son for hrs about this. I did enjoy the 1st 1/2 of the new Dune. The second part not so much but the 80s Dune will always be the best Dune.

I'm going to say something unpopular. Dune 1984 was a more enjoyable movie than the current version. Current version had better action sequences, but the actors, music, and tone was bland....😅

@HaGeorgeisback @ralphyperdomo It does

@IntCyberDigest @TracketPacer @citiesbydiana Agree about IPV6

@financedystop Duh….

She was in a closed corporate meeting and a senior leader in the room says this about a high performer, “I’m okay if we lose that person”

@JenniferSey Ouch

All I can think is ouch.

@BrianRoemmele @plankers And when they fail, they fail hard. No warning, just gone.

WARNING NOTICE: SSD “Data Decay” and Why I Still Rely on HDDs for >5 TB Medium-Term Storage Your data is decaying and if you wait a decade holding SSD data you can lose some or all of it. Modern SSDs are fantastic for speed and everyday use, but they suffer from charge leakage in NAND flash cells when unpowered. This leads to gradual data decay (bit rot) over time. Per JEDEC specs and real-world tests: Consumer-grade SSDs (mostly TLC NAND) are typically guaranteed for ~1 year of data retention unpowered at room temperature (~30°C). In practice, many hold data 2–5 years depending on NAND type (TLC ~2–3 years, older MLC/SLC longer), usage history (higher write cycles shorten retention), and temperature (heat accelerates decay dramatically). Once charge leaks too much, errors accumulate beyond what ECC can correct → permanent data loss. SAVE YOUR SSD DATA BY POWERING ON! To mitigate this on SSDs used for storage, you must periodically power them up (every 6–12 months recommended), let the controller refresh/scrub cells, and verify data. Skip this for too long and you risk silent corruption. For my medium-term storage (>5 TB of AI training data, archives, backups, rarely accessed data), I stick with traditional hard drives (HDDs). Magnetic platters hold data stably for decades without power—no charge leakage, no mandatory refresh cycles needed. As long as they’re stored properly (cool, dry, stable environment), the bits stay put until mechanical failure (which usually gives warning signs). HDDs aren’t perfect (moving parts, eventual wear), but for cost-per-TB and true “set it and forget it” archival reliability over years, they remain my go-to choice. SSDs get the fast-access tier; spinning rust handles the cold storage.
