@JulioReich @Terry I did do an early life check. Appears to be clean. Maiden name Griffin (typically Welsh), born in Maine. Married an Italian in a Unitarian Church.

Does anyone know more information about the psycho cosplaying as Harry Dresden in that ring doorbell video? I wanna know what the story is.

Child #2 left me some post-its on my desk. Not winning any spelling bees, but I think I like it this way.

Listening to this episode of JRE. This lady did a double split experiment that legitimately blew my mind 🤯Have the laser go for a random amount of time between 30sec-2min. Analyse the interference pattern in the first 30sec. Does the amount of interference indicate how long the experiment will go for?Turns out yes. The single photon isn't interfering with itself in space. It's interfering with other photons in time!#2496 - Julia Mossbridgehttps://pca.st/episode/e5c48766-7e96-450f-9c34-bb05e83d6554

There is almost no one here that would care. But Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is an excellent benchmark for testing video encoders.

Watching a movie with the kids called the Journey of Natty Gann. God damn I miss Disney movies like this. What the hell happened?

@Dan_Ramos Your handwriting sucks. But it's better than mine.

@Dan_Ramos Politicians seem to think they need to be smart to do their job. They don't. I would rather some random plumber from down the road be my representative in congress. He would appreciate the 4x increase in salary, and 10x increase in holiday time. So long as he can tell the difference between and friend and enemy, and have some advisers that aren't going to spin bullshit.

Fertility is a problem because we have created a sterile world with sterile things and sterile institutions.

@GoyGirl When I wrote that I wasn't even thinking about it from a practical sense. I was actually thinking about it from a symbolic point of view. Things with life are chaotic. They have agency. They have a personality. The animating spirit that created cultures around the world was alive.But now it's a spirit of legalism, of digital algorithms and databases and structure. We are nothing but economic units. We have no meaning. The world is sterile, and so is our spirit.

I can't get over the fact that in Excel, if you have 1 column and you drag down to auto fill you need to hold down ctrl to increment numbers. But if you select multiple columns you need to hold down ctrl to NOT increment numbers. If I ever find the person who designed that feature I will punch them in the face.

@Hoss setting aside the somewhat ironically amusing distopia for a second. It is actually possible to install a copy of windows with all this shit completely disabled using an auto unattend script. That is what I’ve done with my machine and it is excellent. Startup time at home is like 1.5secs. Startup time at the office with all the shitty bloatware is like 5mins and I get nagged to reboot every second day.

Cousins came round for dinner and they brought the Switch2. Kids playing Mario Kart. My son just turned on auto everything, didn’t touch the controller for the entire race, came 3rd.Do they make all new games for journalists these days or something?

@Dan_Ramos I’ll believe it when I see it.
