@mttaggart @Aviva_Gary the power outage lasted a week, much of it in below freezing temperatures in my area. I'm sure a camp stove is great in a warm climate to heat up food but I was literally boiling water and filling mason jars to tuck into bed with us to stay warm.

@futurebird 12th Amendment stipulates how the VP is elected. I suppose he could not pick one but then the electors still have to vote for one. That would be an interesting turn of events. Would individuals start running for VP? Either that or no votes are cast for VP and you end up with the senate picking.

@futurebird @fraggle my whole career right now is supporting the development of 2.4GHz wireless communication ICs including BT. Even I'm constantly wondering why people are putting Bluetooth in things that obviously don't need it (I'm looking at you medical devices).

@futurebird tech bros think sci-fi is documentary. They read about dystopian futures and think "hey, I can do that". Fortunately with artificial "intelligence" they can't.

@tomjennings Dude knew that lead was bad (because every fucking chemist for the last 2000 years knew that), got lead poisoning, knew about deaths related to leaded gas manufacturing and still decided it was better to make a buck off it. Fuck people like that. As an engineer I've stayed away from creating, supporting or working on anything that is clearly a risk to health or life. Like, I could make my life a lot easier working for a military contractor but then I'd have to live with myself.

Vegetarian lasagna for the week. I made this monstrosity for my wife and I. I have never learned how to cook for just two people.#cooking
