On this date in 1988, Zero Cool is fined for crashing 1,507 computer systems, which caused a seven-point drop in the New York Stock Exchange. In honor of the anniversary, I’ll be watching the documentary Hackers tonight.

I love history and I love hip hop so I loved reading about how an East St. Louis radio station made history by playing Rapper’s Delight.
Now listening to the album Those Who Throw Objects at the Crocodiles Will Be Asked to Retrieve Them by Bruno Pernadas. 🎵
I’ve been using Callsheet from Casey Liss for a few months on the beta. I love it. I deleted the IMDB app from my phone, that’s how good Callsheet is.
I tried out the latest LTS of Ubuntu and Pop_OS and they both ran into the same issue with waking from sleep that I could not figure out. Performance was also diminished. Back to Mint. It’s amazing how much snappier it feels.
I love comedian Paul F. Tompkins and his appearance on the podcast Good One, explaining his famous “Peanut Brittle” bit, is fantastic. If you like comedy give it a listen.
I think I may switch Linux distros on my Macbook Pro from Mint to Ubuntu. GNOME has come such a long way, I think I like it better than Cinnamon now.
I love when there is weird stuff on my walks with Spike.
This is what I’m listening to today, Atmosphere - Sad Clown Bad Dub II.
