I was about 80% ready to buy a new car today. At the dealership: lowballed the trade-in 🚩 finance rate 2% higher 🚩 my rate made car more $ 🚩 I walked out without a car. Now they’re begging me to come back to make a deal. I was already to make a deal when I was there before. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Car buying sux.

Is Splatoon 3 still active as it was?

Water in the basement Sunday. But we got it taken care of. Just needed like 30 shopvac fills and a podcast or two.

@ynotradio.net Hey I wonder if I can request a song on here… You all should check out the band “Rocket” and the song, “Take Your Aim” — their EP is getting reissued in April, and they sound like they’re ripped straight from the 90s in the best way! Thanks Y-Not!

After hearing @gruber.foo talk about Kagi.com and then hearing it mentione again on The Vergecast, I decided to give it a shot. It’s great. So is their browser Orion! Decided to subscribe for the month to see how it goes. Clean. Great results. No dumb AI.

The BlueSky app is fine, but where’s that’s truly great 3rd party app? Need Tapbots to port Ivory.

@altmadison.bsky.social it’s 34 in Ohio. I’m cold with you. 🤘🏻

Mahomes sounds like Kenny Powers. youtu.be/YhtauY5bZ7Q?...

@benkuchera.bsky.social it’s pretty fantastic.

Got to play with my new #icom 705. Less wattage than my #Yaesu 710, but easier to transport. I also noticed if you add “QRP” when you’re calling out, it usually grabs activators attention when you’re hunting for #POTA. I would have stayed out longer, but my fingers were freezing! #hamradio

Still digging this little 10” Chuwi laptop. I ended up tossing Windows 11 back on it to maybe use it with my edrums. Decided using my work issued MacBook Pro might be a risky endeavor…

I understand why The Verge has a subscription option—but it feels like every attempt to read anything remotely interesting on the site tosses up the paywall. It’s now a frustrating experience @reckless.bsky.social

The goat.

The “find out” part of FAFO is the best part really…

My super rad 3D printed cage for my new ham radio. Now I just need the dumb weather to turn magically into spring.

Disappointed at myself for eating like absolute trash the past few days…first big derail in months. Gotta shake it off. Tomorrow we get back on it. Can’t let a minor setback ruin all my progress.

The Cool Ghoul.
