What does it stand for?

Too Long; Didn’t Read

Its when there is a lot of detail that people may tend to ignore or not completely grok due to the sheer volume.

How are you using it?

I typically use it in electronic communication to indicate a conscise summary for them to get the main take aways while also roviding details later for any one interested in them.

Here is my findings/opinion as of Oct 2023:

1. ❌ Boot Camp - I want to run OSs in a window, not reboot into it
2. ❌ Parallels Desktop - too expensive for my purposes
3. ❌ VirtualBox is great but, unfortunately, Virtual Box currently (Sept 2023) does not work on modern macs so its a non-strater ATM. Plus the licesning is not currently compatible with my work.
4. ⚠️ QEMU is extremely capable but it requires quite a technical ability to simply spin up a VM
5. ✅ UTM is a QEMU based GUI that is simple and just works.

UTM, like Virtual Box, runs the OS in a window in macOS (as opposed to rebooting into the OS like bootcamp). Personally, I find the window approach far more convenient than rebooting.

Goal

Have my echo automatically tell me about a given calendar’s events when its time comes (and any remind-me-X-before reminders that they have attached to them if possible).

Example: Say I have a Big Important Meeting at 1pm with a remind-me-notification 5 minutes before set.

1. At 12:55 I want to hear something like “Dan, Big Important Meeting is in five minutes”
2. At 1.00I want to hear something like “Dan, Big Important Meeting started”

Problem

I've been working on this idea off and on for a while and tonight Rhiannon had a suggestion that just fell into place. The end result:

• 1 shot (or 2 if you like) Bulleit Bourbon
• 1 shot tart cherry juice
  • original was RW Knudsen family organic just tart cherry
• 6 oz peach sparking water
  • original was Waterloo
• ice to preference
• rinse and repeat as needed

Houston homes are not built for freezing weather. Winter Storm Uri in Feb 2021 proved that and I never want to go through that again!

So instead of the trickling outlets approach (which did not prevent our pipe burst) we will be shutting off water during the freeze.

Here is how I do it:

Before it freezes (in the evening probably):

1. Fill up bathtub, buckets, etc with water for flushing toilets
2. Open every tap inside and out
