I made a panorama picture!!!!! It's of the incoming log area at the paper mill where my uncles work in Spring Grove, PA. Uncle Bill loads the logs onto the conveyor...dunno what uncle Dave does. I know it's huge but it's the best I could get after reducing it 5 times - so please forgive me.

I LOVE photo stitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Canon RULES!!!!! (Y)

Nice log house near where mom grew up. The kitchen (in the back under the overhang) and the cellar date back to the early 1800s...I'm not sure about the date of log part of the house. A nice bit of history: during the civil war, the owner saw someone coming up to the kitchen door and thought he was a confederate. He shot him and the man told him he was a northern courier before he died so the owner took the message to whomever was to get it and turned himself in for murdering the courier.

This is a pic of uncle Stewart (left) and Pop (right) taken when we were in PA last week. I'm posting it not only to brag about uncle Stewart being 101yo (Y), but also to show how great my Canon s400 is. It was a bright sunny fluffy cloud day, the curtains were open, and the pic wasn't washed out by the background light. I doubt that Mom's Canon Sure Shot could do that, but then she hasn't had the film developed yet.

DAMMIT I LOVE MY CANON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll never be able to thank Keldyn enough for making me buy it!

    • When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client. 
    • I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different." "Hey Siri, help me write this document about shoes." Powered by Google. "Sure thing, while we're here, can I interest you on some Nike's? They're on sale at Target right now!"
    • Walmart was still selling the Apple Watch SE 2 on Black Friday in 2024. I got 1 for my mom and one for my dad for christmas.
    • But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
