Update: 232 of my site files take more than 1s to download at 3G, with 50 taking over 15s (and one over a minute!)

So by the rules I set for myself, optimization would help. Yay I wrote a clever solution to show if I needed to write a clever solution!

Wait. That sounds bad.

And yeah, a sluggish 3G connection seemed like a reasonable threshold. I get stuck with that plenty of times. A fair chunk of my friends & family are in areas where that’s a good day.

Somewhat happy for my own success. Overjoyed I can look out for friends & family who aren’t in the same position. Kind of tired all the time.

(also massively overextended in nearly every measurable way, but I’ve been working on that)

This is among the most awful threads. Must revisit soon so I can truly absorb it. And fave stuff.

I drove a truck and nobody died!

On the one hand, yay out of the basement for a bit!

OTOH my only wifi option is an xfinity hotspot.

Well, I suppose not technically the only option. There are other networks. But I’m trying to be good.

Also: I remembered my fancy keyboard, but left the trackpad at home. No worries. The keyboard can do a mouse thing. It’s just like a video game.

Hang on. I’m terrible at video games.
