Once upon a time, #IBM Watson was billed as "the only real AI". (And the capability hype was similar, but I doubt GPT can compete on Jeopardy..)

The most recent IBM ad describes Watson's new job in careful detail: Prompt engineer. Let that sink in for a second. IBM Watson, the "OG AI", is now billed as a way to 'get the Right AI for Your Business.'

I guess Watson is so true to life it even has a real IT career..

Question for the #homegrow crowd: Where do you dry your harvest? (Assuming dry trimming I guess.)

I'm considering just using the lung room, but that seems sketchy. The room humidity is OK even in the rain, and I can rig lines behind the tent, but...
I've only got one tent, so using it means all 3 plants have to harvest at once. (My first attempt was almost all larf because we're clueless about training, and also we had to harvest the whole plant at once. We couldn't finish off the lower buds because we needed the tent for drying.)

Remember when they were impossible to free from the cardboard box? Pepperidge farm remembers.

Recreational consumables

Today's #mastobeer is more proof we'll put our flag on everything! (I understand. It's a handsome flag.) 7th State Golden Lager from Calvert Brewing.
Goes great by the #pool with a bit of #cannabis.
Toast to @BlippyTheWonderSlug! Allow me to send you an overseas #BONG!

I started a third batch of #pepper sauce fermenting last night. Filled the jar 3/4 with whole peppers (mostly red thai fish peppers, with a few greens and 4 scotch bonnets) then cut it all up with half an onion, half a mango and a carrot. In a couple of months it will be food!

#snarkhome #bigear uses #ble heavily. I think I am going to build some more interesting listeners this winter. (I'm disenchanted with pure #homeassistant + #esphome as a framework. Maybe raw mqtt..)

I am also having more and more trouble saying "I don't need a ham license" with a straight face.

I also made the first batch of scotch bonnet fish pepper peach hot sauce. And the second, with carrots I forgot on the first one.
Super easy, just peach, onion, a million peppers and some brine. Sits and waits a month or so, then blend boil and eat.

The #weedlings (now turned to #tweeds) are in school! Not really, but today it turned to fall in the tent. We've still got two Cheetah Piss and two Duct Tape, all from legalization day seeds. Both pics are in the new light, but the #espcam is better at filtering the red.
It turns out that the heat wave outside is not as helpful as I had expected. Lung room is warm, tent is hot but plants are ok.
I did a bit of pruning a few days back, but they weren't trained properly so it's no proper lollypop grow. (Only my second try, after all.)
No nutes since I'm on happy frog.
Criticism welcome.

I guess I'm moving off the old #homelab faster than I thought. So much for weekend plans. 😿

If anyone wants to offer advice, the setup is #democratic-csi #iscsi to #truenas (mostly xfs, a mistake I've corrected moving forward.)
The old cluster has decided to just ignore PVCs. The replacement cluster uses the same credentials (shh) but a different path and prefix and it is still working fine. I've tried restarting associated controllers/ds, even bounced the bad cluster and updated the NAS, which entailed bouncing both clusters.

Nothing in the logs, and there are no recent related updates. Both clusters are driven off largely shared/identical code, with minor furniture rearranging.

On to the #pepper update.

The #peppers have started ripening! So, first, no jalepenos - that was a bad ID. These are Thai fish peppers and they are SO GOOD. The Carolina Reaper has 4 fruit, so that is .. terrifying?
The harvest of Scotch Bonnets and Thai Fish peppers has taken off this week! I'm getting 3-4 Fish and 2-4 Bonnets every day!
Most get cleaned and fridged for fermented sauce next week but the fish peppers are AMAZING on pizza..
All 4 plants are still making flowers, so hopefully I can get a second harvest going before transplanting for winter. (I really want peppers in midwinter Just Because and I have extra lights.)

Overdue combo #hydrotower and #weedlings update (no pics don't worrry totally #sfw not even bad language except "weed") Peppers are next.

The #weedlings are no more. I've put off writing but.. they graduated to weed! 😹 They got some last minute training last week, and soon they go to flower. Nothing much to say, pics later, etc. I need a better dehumidifier but as long as the heat holds, the exhaust fan + house AC keeps up.

The #cucumber is growing tons of female flowers! 5 or 6 popped up literally as I was making a Hard Choice about a rebuild. Unfortunately, zero males survive. I think I got a couple pollinated but it is just comical at this point.
Not comical is the #basil which gets more vigorous every time I harvest. (Every few days I have to cut the stem back because it is leaning on the LED again and turning yellow.) It is just HAPPY. Cut down all the front-facing leaves? Enough for homemade XL margarita pizza today and tomorrow there is enough new growth for a nice sauce.

Malfunctioning Mitch isn't being mocked because he has a serious medical condition. Saying otherwise is just a strawman argument to garner sympathy for a monster.

He is being mocked because, after spending his career ensuring OTHERS had no medical care for THEIR serious conditions, he now has one. (A condition. He already gave himself the best medical care in the country.)

It gets better. Just like so many of his victims, he cannot retire and attempt to address it privately with peace and dignity. He must go to work every day and pretend everything is normal. This, too, is his own doing.

The reaction isn't about "haha strokes are funny." This is about not feeling bad for a monster forced to lay in the bed he intended only for us unworthy masses.

Include the 100s of millions of people his actions still victimize and yeah, its mildly fucking amusing. It would only be better if he got to do it under the same insurance and income conditions as his voters.
