I was really curious to see what Gerbils! is in the Applications folder, but that just triggers a hard lock up after the splash screen. I see the menus are "Environment", "Rendering" and "Camera" though.

The closest stop to me is between a dog park and a school - scanning it would have been an awkward situation, to say the least. And as you said, for rewards that aren't worth it. I got used to having that "Scan" task just sitting at the top of my list, never to be touched. But I noticed earlier this week that it's gone - and scanning stops doesn't give a new scan task.

That’s very possible. I switch between Cursor and VS Code, don’t remember which it was that day.

The fact that in the miniplayer you can't display both the album art and the track information at the same time unless the cursor is hovering over the window absolutely boggles my mind. If I'm listening to a station, I want to glance over and see what I'm listening to. And I like the album art showing. This worked until Tahoe.

View menu > Hide Large Artwork will show the track info, but you of course lose the album art.

Of course it's not a major issue, it doesn't make the system unusable, but it was a nice little experience thing.

From the FAQ:

> You can try to find Wally (Waldo), as in the well-known game Where's Wally. He is partially visible, but if you click on him, he will appear in full and wave at you.

I once bought one of those alarms that brighten along with the pattern of natural sunlight in the morning (and dim in the evening), as I don’t get much natural light in my bedroom. The time display on it was so unbelievably bright at its lowest setting that my sleep was worse until I piled stuff up in front of it. I don’t even bother with it anymore.

Of 60-something Linodes in Newark across a few accounts (we don't use LKE, Node Balancers, etc)

- Many came back up yesterday. Most of the rest came back up this morning.

- All but two are back online. One of those is "Powered off" but can't be turned on because "Linode busy". The other is online but unreachable, same behavior as most of them during the outage.

- Three required me to put them in Rescue Mode and run fsck.ext4 -F /dev/sda to get them back online.

I woke up to a few hundred messages from Icinga - thankfully my phone is on do-not-disturb overnight. Some of my servers in Newark are up and responding, some are not.

Happy Sunday! Cleaning up the automatically-created maintenance/alert tickets generated by this is going to be a fun time.
