For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Any of my #fitness and #weightlifting folks have any recommendations for shin guards for deadlifting? I now have gorgeous tattooing on one leg, and I want to protect that area from the usual deadlift scraping. Bear Grips seem popular and well liked? Rogue has some, but reviews seem mixed on them. 🤔 Ideas and experiences welcome! 🙏🏻

I got most of the #homegym back into place today! Gonna have to temporarily store kettlebells and dumbbells on the floor until I can get something permanent, but all the main/big stuff is up off the ground and looking sharp! 😍 @ryan ‘s fancy new laser level def paid for itself leveling across corners 😬. Once the rubber mats are dry (hopefully tomorrow?), I can get them back into place, too!

@ryan That is just an unfashionable quantity of Little Smokies 🤯

Oh, just for the technology peeps: the lights over each car position are Nanoleaf Skylights, the light sconces on the wall with the rack are Phillips Hue, and the speakers are Sonos Fives. That boxy metal thing is a kegorator we’ve had for a long time but never got to see back up when we moved because there were no outlets (it has lots of those now :3). And that’s a L2 Tesla charger in the middle for the hub’s Model 3 (that was there before).

Pics from last night after we power washed the construction gunk off the garage floor. Construction and painting are done! I’ll be getting the gym equipment and stuff assembled today, and I’ll take new pics once the gym is completely back together. I’m also working on picking some fun neon signage, mirrors, and maybe some cool signs and posters, but that’ll take some time. THIS SPACE IS GONNA BE SO RAD, YALL 🥳

Picture of the front of a house with two garage doors, both open, with warm lighting coming from inside.  Ladders and signs of construction and disruption are still about, floors are wet from recent washing.Taken from a low angle, it’s a picture of the back wall of an empty, newly renovated, recently power washed  garage. Nanoleaf Skylights are positioned over each car’s position, a Tesla charger hangs in the middle of the wall, and a weight rack is just out of frame on the right.Taken from a low angle, a picture of the weight lifting rack and the two new Phillips Hue sconces that now frame it on either side. Sonos Fives hang high on the wall on either side.  A shop fan is aimed at the floor drying it out post-power washing

It's been like 100+ years of oil lobbyist making absolutely every aspect of American life garbage on purpose. Can we please do something else for once? I'd like some trains and EVs that don't catch fire or amputate limbs.

It's that part of the evening where I'm just staying awake because of some weird mix of pre-FOMO, mild guilt at eating Thai food instead of meal prepped items, and some low-grade resentment of not having somewhere more exciting to be or something more exciting to do like all the attractive people on the internet have. 🫠 #nightowl #whyamIstillup

More progress on the #garagegym #remodel. We had some additional electrical run to meet city ordinances, and they got the attic floor decking installed, got the old garage doors removed, and got the new attic entry installed! 🥳 Hoping tomorrow they get through the final electrical bits and get to start the replacing and installing the insulation. The stuff that’s there is gross 🤢

More progress on the #garagegym #renovation #remodel! Mostly material deliveries (drywall and new attic stairs) and most of the new electrical. It’s nice having shiny new boxes and wire everywhere knowing how much better it’s going to be when complete. I also purchased the new exterior lights that will go along the sides of the garage doors, new accent lights for the gym side of the garage interior, and new Sonos speakers! Tomorrow the old doors hopefully come out, new attic stuff goes in! 🤞🏻

The #garagegym is closed this week for #renovation! 🥳🥲I am anxious to get back to working out, but I am also stoooooked for all this to happen. Today was Day 1, and there’s work of varying kinds scheduled through Tuesday or Wednesday of next week (barring weekend, obvs). I will be photo dumping as we go bc squeeeeee! #remodeling

Picture of a gutted garage. The walls and ceiling have been stripped of all drywall, revealing their underlying studs and supports. Two white garage doors show closed on the left, and very moldy pink insulation is visible on the right. Center of the room is a pile of larger items too big to move into the house that have been instead shuffled away from the walls.
