We made another 90 Things 4 Good candles today for a total of 180 ready for the Things 4 Good Fall Fundraiser!
I decided to give Reddit another try. In 2015 I deleted my account. Reddit hasn’t clicked with me, but I want to give it another go. I created a r/WeeklyThing community, which I think could be interesting there. I’ve found r/candlemaking fun. 🙂
Making Things 4 Good Candles with the Digiboil is way faster and just easier. We made twice the candles in much less time versus multiple double boilers.
It is also a win that we can make them inside. Last years cooled outside and that can be too fast and cause tunneling.
We are doing our very first round of Things 4 Good Candles with the Digiboil. This thing can take a lot of wax! This is going to make candle production much faster.
Sign a Message to Verify an Ethereum Address
Cats Will Eat You posed a question on Twitter that I found interesting:
What’s the easiest/free way to validate someone owns a wallet address?
Easiest way to do this that I know is to have the person sign a message with the address and send it to you. I used MyCrypto Sign Message to connect to my wallet and sign a message. This gives a signature:
{
"address": "0x2BdA946a7740b1dDB0fd5C226819170c4DD15720",
"msg": "This message is from thingelstad.eth!",
"sig": "0x0827e88dce80cc03769aa34005f1d693be0247aecd433b49d6fa068df9965bde20047da38ac4aa0e51b6b914fd39b225843fa938817a0ced0a04b47a55b8b99e1c",
"version": "2"
}
Take that message and use the Verify Message tool and confirm that it was signed by that wallet. 🪄
Since upgrading to macOS Ventura I can no longer launch Safari using LaunchBar. I’m constantly launching the wrong thing. I don’t get why LaunchBar wont index Safari. Works same as always for every other app. 😬

The Duplicates and Merging feature in the latest version of Photos 8.0 is really nice. I’ve wanted a utility to do this for years and so far it works exactly how I would want it to.
I first got COVID 664 days into the pandemic, and 294 days later I tested positive today, twice. This time feels very different than last time. I’m hoping it passes quick. I’m also isolating from the family since everyone else is negative so far. 🤞😷
