Battery Powered Compressed Air
Over the weekend, I pulled out my TV stand and organized all my wiring. I also took some time to use compressed air on my gaming systems, which occurs less than I like, just because I hate buying compressed air. As I emptied the can into my Xbox Series X, I grabbed my phone to order another can from Amazon. That’s when I saw one of those battery powered air dusters for basically double the price of a can of compressed air. The reviews were much better than expected, so I figured what the heck, let’s see if it’s worth the fuss.
I’m happy to say it totally is! While maybe not as powerful initially than a typical can of compressed air, it definitely allows for a longer flow of air and is quite powerful. It was a great purchase, and it allowed me to really get the dust out of all of my electronics, portable A/C, and more. Heck, I even used it to dry a hose I cleaned out. We’ll see how long this $26 purchase lasts, but so far, I’ve definitely gotten a can or two of air out of it.
NFL Season Has Begun
It was kickoff weekend for the 2025-2026 NFL season, and I spent my Sunday parked in front of the TV for several hours. I wouldn’t say I’m a die-hard fan of any team, but I tend to root for the Steelers and the Lions, and then usually whoever is an underdog. Although, I’ve never really cared for Aaron Rogers, so it was a conflicting day rooting for him on Sunday (Although, I would have been fine if the Jets won, I feel like the Steelers did Justin Fields dirty last year).
Mary Tyler Moore
Over the past couple of months, I’ve been exploring a lot of 70s TV shows and movies. I feel like I’ve pretty much exhausted most of the pop-culture from the 80s and 90s, and since I wasn’t born in the 70s, it’s a fun decade to explore. It also helps that quite a bit of it mirrors today’s world.
When I was a kid, I used to watch the Mary Tyler Moore show on Nick at Night, but I hadn’t watched an episode in well over twenty-five years until last week. I decided to watch a couple of episodes on Hulu and wow… what an amazing show. It’s so good and usually gets at least one or two big chuckles out of me. So, now I’ve added Mary Tyler Moore alongside Taxi, Kung Fu, The Dukes of Hazzard, and WKRP to the list of 70’s era shows that I’m watching. I’m also mad crushing on Rhoda.
PlayStation Remote Play
A few months ago, my cat knocked over my bedroom TV. It would have survived if not for the Apple TV that was yanked off the TV stand and landed directly onto the screen. Since then, we’ve been down to one TV, and I usually concede the TV to my wife, and I use my iPad for movies or TV shows. However, when I want to game, I’ve been limited to my Switch.
Well, I decided to give PlayStation Remote Play another try. I wasn’t impressed a few years ago, so I was curious if it improved any. I’m happy to say, it has! It works so well! Within minutes, I was exploring the galaxy in No Man’s Sky on my phone (which I don’t recommend… the screen is way too small) but it’s nice to have a way to get a little gaming in and it makes me want a PlayStation Portal now.
