Sadly one of my friend's mother passed away. The visitation was yesterday. Driving to Niagara on a weekend seems to be a nightmare all the time now. Another typical 90m drive was over 180m...Ugh. On top of being caught in bumper to bumper for close to an hour it was hot as hell. So blah. I was hoping to spend some time visiting with my Mom but it was reduced to rushing to dress and eat. I know these words will haunt me forever... but, thank god I listened to my wife. I wore a short sleeve shirt and was still uncomfortably hot. My friend was happy to see me. He seemed understandably frazzled and in shock. Losing a parent has a finality like nothing else in life. We did chat a bit and had a few laughs as we reminisced. It felt like a very long day.
We finished We Own This City and Season 4 of The Bear. We Own was a pretty stark critique of policing, politics and corruption in the US. I thought The Bear continue to be unwatchably dull one moment then exhilarating the next. Hmpt.
Mexico beat the US in the Gold Cup... Had Canada made it to the final I don't think they would have beat either team anyway... *shrug*
We've been using Jellyfin for about a week now and it seem to work great. Everything has worked as expected.
UPDATE July 7 @ 10:38PM
I got a nice message from my buddy regarding the visitation. *grin*
Ended Andor season 2. It is so good.
Dentist today. Oddly suggested my doctor look at one of my tonsils. Weird.
Going on the record to say that BBQed asparagus is quite good.
I was running Windows for a Plex and Jellyfin servers. Today, I switched to Jellyfin only on Manjaro. It went pretty well this time... So once again, I'm Windows free. ๐
