Was tempted to wear my clerical collar as my costume tonight. Happy Halloween! 🎃

Has anyone out there tried any of the decks from “The Unstuck Box”? I’m a sucker for card decks like this, but curious what others’ experience has been!

“Realtor.” Do you say “REEL-ter” or “REEL-ih-ter”?

Started using and paying for Kagi a few weeks ago. Happy so far! Also, I’m signing up for a Fastmail account today! Any other “tech independence”-like services I should consider?

Say you were moving soon and you had almost a thousand books to pack up and take with you. What would you pack the books in? I used Home Depot cardboard boxes last time. I’m considering trying plastic storage bins of some kind…

Software disenchantment @ tonsky.me

As a general trend, we’re not getting faster software with more features. We’re getting faster hardware that runs slower software with the same features. Everything works way below the possible speed. Ever wonder why your phone needs 30 to 60 seconds to boot? Why can’t it boot, say, in one second? There are no physical limitations to that. I would love to see that. I would love to see limits reached and explored, utilizing every last bit of performance we can get for something meaningful in a meaningful way.

Didn’t get the house. Really sick and tired of this housing market.

Putting in an offer on a house 😅🫣

Realized this morning just how much I love answering questions. Gives me an excuse to do some research, learn something, help someone, give recommendations, etc. SO, if you’ve got a question/problem, just “Ask Josh Anything” here! joshuapsteele.com/ask/

Our kids get to dress-up as their favorite saint at their Catholic school… Should we send our 3yo dressed as Martin Luther? 😂 ⛪️🚪🔨

Last day of being 31. How should I celebrate?

What are the best books to read to understand the Israel-Palestine conflict? #books #israel #palestine #middleeast 📚

I hate Twitter but, to be honest, micro.blog feels a lot lonelier. I like learning, books, mental models, pens, pencils, paper, notebooks, tools, knots, DIY, EDC, productivity advice, coffee, beer, software development, Tolkien, rucking, soccer, chilly weather, etc. Where are my people at??

So many memories wrapped-up with the hymn “For All the Saints”…Singing it every term in seminary, singing it before baptizing my two oldest, singing it at my ordination, singing it next to Fr. Thomas McKenzie (of blessed memory) at Provincial Assembly, etc. etc.

Happy “Finally Feels Like Fall Day” to all who celebrate! 🍁🍂

Giving Kagi search engine a try after hearing enough positive things about it on micro.blog

October is the best month. Still feels like September today, but it will come around.
