It’s a Rend Collective type of rainy day. Remembering God’s joy and presence in all the storms!

Precisely what I thought would happen.  — Mega-church Pastor Nominate Lifeway CEO

Curses! This episode is making me want to get a stand-alone camera!

Scala Native is pretty darn cool.

Y’all, now is a good time to pray the prayers for peace found in our beautiful new prayer book on page 654. #peace #anglican

“Almighty God, from whom all thoughts of truth and peace proceed: Kindle, we pray, in the hearts of all people the true love of peace, and guide with your pure and peaceable wisdom those who take counsel for the nations of the earth; that in tranquility your kingdom may go forward, till the earth is filled with the knowledge of your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.” - BCP 2019

“Eternal God, in whose perfect kingdom no sword is drawn but the sword of righteousness, no strength known but the strength of love: So mightily spread abroad your Spirit, that all peoples may be gathered under the banner of the Prince of Peace; to whom be dominion and glory, now and for ever.  Amen.” BCP 2019

“It is permitted to no man to curse another, for the apostle Paul says, that the cursers shall not possess the kingdom of God. Let no man curse nor wish evil to another, lest through that cursing he bind his soul, as it were, with devilish ropes…” — Ælfric of Eynsham

The boards on the Classic and SE both look really good. No battery leakage! My beloved first computer, the Classic II, gets opened later tonight. Pray for me. #retrocomputing #macintosh #apple

It is so exciting seeing Prayer Books at Provincial Assembly! I can’t wait for mine to arrive in the mail!

Fathers Day at Cheekwood

“the Catholic Faith is this: That we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity, neither confounding the Persons, nor dividing the Substance. For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Ghost.” The Athanasian Creed #trinity

We asked Alexa to play romantic music. We got: Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and the Googoo Dolls. 🤷‍♀️

This morning’s album selection: The Charlie Daniels Band 🎶

Y’all, IntelliJ is painful. Don’t have the time right now, but I’ve got to get Code or SublimeText configured for Java/Scala development.

“Let us also be mindful of how great dignity is the holy maiden Mary, the mother of Christ: she is blessed above all women; she is the heavenly queen, and the comfort and support of all Christian men. […] Let us, therefore, with great fervour, pray to her, that she mediate for us to her own Child, who is both her Creator and her Son, true God and true man, one Christ, who liveth and reigneth with Father and with Holy Ghost, those three one God to all eternity. Amen.” — Ælfric of Eynsham, “Nativitas Domini”

“We should also honor Christ’s nativity and his birth-tide with ghostly joy, and adorn ourselves with good works, and busy ourselves with song of praise to God[…] — Ælfric of Eynsham, “Nativitas Domini”

“Christ would that many prophets, and also the heathen should announce his advent, and make known his course, that mankind might be the more believing, and the more certain in whom they should believe[…]” — Ælfric of Eynsham, “Nativitas Domini”

Yikes! Sleep aide for babies? Not sure this is a good idea. (But, I so understand the temptation!)

Y’all, LuLu is awesome. For $20 bucks I got “The Homilies of Ælfric” printed. So much better than the Google Books PDF! Will do again. (Though, I got the size wrong. Will do smaller next time. Size compared to Oxford Annotated Bible.)

I’ll be switching to the new Eero with HomeKit once it’s announced. Been using Unfi for the last few years, but it’s gotten bad. Had to downgrade firmware today to correct a DHCP issue.

So, it seems eGPUs on the Mac mini aren’t awful. (Especially for a casual gamer like myself.) I’m just annoyed Apple doesn’t make a “prosumer” tower. What I want is a head-less iMac with user-accessible HD, RAM, and GPU.

So don’t know what to do about a new computer now. What I need is a Mac Pro Mini that costs ~3-4k with a monitor. With the Mac Pro announced today, I think I’m going to have to get a Mac mini plus a PC for gaming. :-(

SwiftUI! Wow. So excited for this!

I’m actually surprised they didn’t release an API for custom watch faces. Maybe next year. #wwdc
