I set up a Google account for my claw: Bruce. Bruce is named after the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station and my second data analysis server I had at CEU. (When talking about the first server with CEU IT, we first started calling it the power plant and then subsequently Paks. When I got an upgrade, I just found a bigger nuclear station, one with an easy name, to name it after. Current analysis machines have very different naming schemes. One’s called Monster, the Sparks are called Frodo, Bilbo, with Sam most likely incoming.)
I am neck deep in Google services: Drive, Google Docs, Gmail. So, I figured it just makes sense for Bruce to be on a Google account. I actually have a Google Workspace so I just did it there. Regular gmail would likely work as well, though I was worried about two-factor authentication and my SMS verification failed. (I do have too many gmail accounts, they probably limit how many you can verify with a single phone number.)
Then I started making an avatar. Meet Bruce, my molted alter ego.
OK. Just a quick one today. I am going to go and scare my children with this photo…
