They did actually post that there’s no challenges on the weekend, so I won’t be looking tomorrow, at least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Given that there won’t be another weekend in the challenge, a day without checking probably isn’t a bad thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, what’s up. Got my new iPhone SE 2020<\/a>. Let’s see how long the battery on this one lasts. My old iPhone 7 was only good for probably like an hour with a podcast playing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n *looks away to watch video on the Saints’ draft pick last night*<\/p>\n\n\n\n I was distracted by the HRGeeks<\/a> video chat<\/a> last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe I’ll find motivation to watch the last four rounds today, but I doubt it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve been on my boycott-all-things-{Facebook, Amazon, Google} kick lately, so I ordered a webcam from a site I used to use for pretty much all of my hardware needs. (And I guess software, too, if you consider the boxed copy of Windows Velvista I bought for a gaming PC I built in probably 2007)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Turns out it was a third-party seller. In Hong Kong. They set up the USPS shipping label when they’d sent it out of their warehouse, and on to the boat to the US. I guess it’s been sitting in customs jail in Los Angeles for about ten days now. Pfft. If it was more expensive, I’d cancel the order, and dispute the charges on my credit card. But it was like nineteen bucks total with shipping. Hat-tip to Harry Browne<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n (The basic idea is that you set a threshold for arguing about price differences. His threshold, when the book was written in something like 1970, I think was a hundred bucks. When I first read the book, a hundred bucks was a big deal to me, so I set my bar much lower. Even when I was completely broke in radio, I think my threshold was $20. I should probably reassess that limit, but, regardless, the price of the webcam was less…)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
