Metallica T-Shirt Club: Year One
I received the first t-shirt of four of the inaugural “Metallica T-Shirt Club” yesterday.
I need not to unfold the t-shirt to see that it is based on “Creeping Death” artwork.

Twice the HomePods, at a discount.
A few ago I found out that Verizon was selling second generation HomePods in “Midnight” at a discount.
I ordered two of the HomePods immediately since I like the original HomePods sound than their “mini” counterparts.
Both HomePods were delivered the next day.

As of this writing, Verizon has sold out of the “Midnight” HomePods.

Package 3 of 2?
Well, package #3 was completely something we did not plan and did happen. To be honest, it’s supposed to be only one package, but plan changed.
At first, we’re planning only to acquire the Red, Black and White EVH Wolfgang Special Striped Series, thanks to a pretty nice discount offered by the vendor. Another vendor made an offer to us for the Yellow and Black 🐝 EVH Wolfgang Special Striped Series.
Late last week, the first vendor made another offer that really tempted us. Now we have completed the series.

We’re going to get these guitars inspected by our favorite luthier who is also a Fender/EVH authorized repair service provider.
Going 2.5 Gbps part deux
Late last year, I added a 10 Gbps Ethernet adapters to our Synology DiskStations. I installed NETGEAR 10-Port Gigabit/10G Ethernet Plus Switch (GS110EMX) so that 8 computers we have at the office can each have full Gigabit connection to the main DiskStation.
At home office, I have TP-Link TL-SG108-M2, 8 Port 2.5 Gigabit Switch installed. That’s because 10 Gbps switches are still expensive, and I’m also concerned about the amount of heat they currently generate.
Anyway, I’m now 2.5 Gbps compliant at home office.
