Right before lunch I chewed Fearless Leader out for withholding money he wasn’t supposed to from my last paycheck. But only because he’s done it off and off for the past six months.

Of course it was somebody else’s fault and not his. 🙄

But I still chewed him out. And told him I wanted reimbursed by tomorrow.

He just sent me a message saying he had a check and wants to see me before I leave work for today.

I hate follow-ups like this.

Peeps, here’s your bring-it-on-the-floor jam to get this work week started. Clemens Rehbein looks a little hipster but it’s still good.

He got the looks of my brother, Shaun, while he got the singer-song-writer feel of my brother, Scott.

All this ❤️

After another look I could still see the dings, etc. from being in the attic for the last 5+ years.

I’m glad this is winding down. I love painting as much as the next handyman for sure but there always comes a point where I’m ready to put away the paint brushes.

Everybody probably needs a strobe light in their house 🤔

Me: Would you go get us a box for our pizza?

Maggie: It’s winter break. I should be allowed not to talk to anyone.

Painting is 99.9% done. Closet doors, too!

I probably should’ve painted them before I hung them up but what fun would that be?

I shouldn’t be painting when it’s dark out but it’s a “when I have time” kinda thing.

Chrome is turning into the new Internet Explorer 6

Chrome is now the most popular browser across all devices, thanks to Android’s popularity and the rise of Chrome on Windows PCs and Mac computers. As Google continues to dominate our access to the web, information through its search engine, and services like Gmail or YouTube, Chrome is a powerful entry point in the company’s vast toolbox. While Google championed web standards that worked across many different browsers back in the early days of Chrome, more recently its own services often ignore standards and force people to use Chrome.

Chrome, in other words, is being used in the same way that Internet Explorer 6 was back in the day — with web developers primarily optimizing for Chrome and tweaking for rivals later. To understand how we even got to this stage, here’s a little (a lot) of browser history. If you want to know why saying “Chrome is the new Internet Explorer 6” is so damning, you have to know why IE6 was a damnable problem in the early ‘00s.

It’s important to note that both Google and web developers are responsible for this…but Google shouldn’t only be building its sites for its browser. At all.

I’ve never used Chrome as my default browser on any device. Google’s background updates have always creeped me out.
