Welcome Aboard

I am a captain on gray waters.

☔️ I hold space for my passengers as they travel. Space to relax, space to decompress, space to rest, space to talk it out. There is a freedom in radical candor with a stranger, knowing they will never intrude on your life again let's you feel free to tell them anything.

I am a captain, 🌎 I have been to many places and seen many things, I can relate to my riders if they need an ear or advice. I have a different perspective than those whose life is not the sea, those who go about complacent of the danger they are engaged in. Those who rush with single-minded tunnel vision from place to place, seeing nothing of the space in between, caring nothing for the lives in between.

I am a captain, ⚓️ I am responsible for my ship and the damage it could do to others. I am responsible for my passengers and the harm that could befall them if the ship were to crash, and ultimately, I am responsible for the pain to my loved ones if I were to die.

I am a captain, 🌊 my life is the [asphalt] sea. It's where I find my fortune and where I spend a large portion of my life. I respect her power and the danger I am in as I sail. I am vigilant because I know others are not, and they will take me down if my mind drifts away.

I am a captain, ⛵️ my ship is my fortune, my companion, my protectoin from the unforgiving waves. I name her, maintain her, talk to her, treat her with care. If I die at sea I will go down with my ship.

🚕 I am a professional driver with Uber 8-10 hours per day, 6 days per week. I often say, "Welcome Aboard," when someone gets in. I have a different perspective from those who engage with the road as a neusence between their job and home, something to be rushed through. I must treat the road as a hostile ocean where no one is paying attention or I might not make it home bc of someone else's carelessness and haste.

I am a captain on gray waters 🛣🌊, welcome aboard. 🚕⛵️

Happy (belated) 91st birthday to the legend Jim Dunn. It is such an honor to photograph these Legends. This portrait was captured in my small tent studio at the 2023 Nitro Revival.

📣 NEWS FOR #HAIKU: #NVIDIA GPU support coming soon! 🚀

Developer @X512 has successfully ported Nvidia kernel drivers to Haiku. The driver will support Turing+ GPUs and already includes Vulkan integration via Mesa's NVK.

Initial tests are working and show potential for future uses, including AI acceleration with llama.cpp.

A major step forward for the Haiku ecosystem and hardware compatibility!

Kerry pensioner (86) caused "life-changing injuries" including an acquired brain injury to cyclist. Judge Ronan Munro said her culpability was at 'the lower end of the scale'. He said she ‘had deviated from the defined area of travel’ hitting the cyclist and the sun appeared to be a factor. He gave Mrs O’Donnell a 13 month suspended sentence and disqualified her from driving for eight years.

QC pass. Bought some Ali Pozidriv impact bits to replace the ones that shattered in cold weather driving a big screw into a frozen stump at max torque.

The stump is frozen again, so I drove the same screw, which this time broke the screw, not the bit. Another went in fine (at the top highest torque setting of the impact driver).

So according to my not peer reviewed research, these are better than Bosch and Forte Tools 👍

A dirty glove holding up a bag of black impact bits with blue rings next to one from the same batch that is in an impact driver hex socket. The used one has some of the black paint chipped off, revealing bare steel, but looks intact considering the forces that just acted upon it at a rate of 2400 impacts per second.
