Day Two of 2025: The Quickening of Electric Boogaloo

A friend sent a photo of a tuxedo cat in the area which is the follow up to the “Tuxedo Cat” LEGO trend.

“Tuxedo Cat” LEGO

Day two of 2025 and we’re all back to work. A broken down computer in need of repair. Other than that it had been pretty uneventful at our office. Tomorrow might be different as we are expecting the first shipment of the year.

Here we go again, 2025 edition.

The calendar resets and here we are on January 1, 2025.

There are a lot we want to and can share here. Hopefully we can find the time and the discipline to post here.

P.S. a friend sent a photo of “Tuxedo Cat” LEGO for this post.

P.S. p.s. Happy New Year

Grape Tomato Cat

We bought some Grape Tomatoes earlier today.

As usual, it only took a few seconds after we set the box down.

She might look scraggly, you would have understand that because she is at least 20 years old.

Three Years to the Day

The failure to recognize history would be the downfall of human existence. We human are hardwired to self-destruct, as James Hetfield said.

We think it is easy to rewrite our memories through denial and ignorance. What we do and what we are doing about it will determine what we will do.

It is a lot easier to revert to our primal selves and throw away the progress we made as civilized society. we will only fool ourselves if we do that.

What happened in days of the past should guide us in the days to come.

UVC Water Bottle

I finally bought a UVC Water Bottle. I have not used it yet, as it is currently being charged.

I remember when the idea was pitched in KickStarter.

What is the safety of such product?

Since this is a relatively new product, I always proceed with caution.

New Guitar Strap

New guitar strap came in the mail today. It is Fender Modern Tweed Guitar Strap. It is a little bit thinner than Dunlop Classic Tweed Guitar Strap.

I like these Tweed Guitar Straps, as I find them comfortable. That’s my personal preference.

Going 2.5 Gbps

I’m installing a 2.5 Gbps switch ( TP-Link TL-SG108-M2, 8 Port 2.5 Gigabit Switch) at my home office. I would go with 10 GBPs switch but it is still way too expensive and generating excessive heats.

I’m expecting some improvements for devices that support Wifi 6e.
