“fifteen minute introduction to TOPIC”
Half an hour to watch, taking notes along the way. Another half hour to process those notes.
I might wait until later for the “TOPIC in one hour” video.

@genehack @minego the local fauna (edit: also flora sorry first coffee) in Arizona is absolutely gorgeous, but I am still confused and honestly a tiny bit saddened by what they call “trees” around here.
Had similar issues in southern Idaho.

@thegibson @genehack @minego this is open to interpretation.
Definitely not the trees I am familiar with, or the trees I grew up with.

@thegibson @genehack @minego mind you it’s nice being able to actually see sunrise and sunset without a bunch of wood trying to get your attention

@Blort @rysiek oh now I’m sad all over again.
I was one of the 20 people that liked the WP8 interface and loved the early Nokia line of Windows Phones.

@rysiek okay this is the one I was stalking through your feed for. Gonna need to talk to some friends about switching off Telegram.

@bmac @thegibson @genehack @minego I’ve got mountains in view, so the agoraphobia doesn’t kick in. They aren’t the same kind as the Olympics and Cascades, but they’re neat.
The Arizona Sky Islands is just the coolest dang name for a collection of mountains.

@jamie @paigerduty Yah. I’ve been waiting since roughly 2004 for other languages to catch up with some of the affordances in REBOL.

@chuck Oreo has a peanut butter + chocolate cookie that is worth evaluating.

@gizmomathboy yep, though I only ever got a milkshake if I craved something sweet with my big bag of hot Dick’s.

@CoralineAda I definitely like the term “code hospitality”

No shirt. Cooling blanket wrapped around and tied-up like I’m a five year old cosplaying Superman.
If someone wants a meeting at this point, it’s gonna have to be cameras-off.

@vees Oh how I miss the signal quality from when I lived in Seattle proper.
It’s better here on the outskirts of Tucson than it was in suburban south King County, but it’s still not city-downtown signal strength.

The youngest helped by making frozen pizza, though they neglected to separate it from its cardboard tray before its twenty minutes in a 375F oven.
In completely unrelated news, I accidentally came across “Cohabitation Axiom No. 6” from Jerry van Amerongen’s comic The Neighborhood.
After looking across multiple search engines and archive.org

@A_bee Same. It was very hard not to share more. Internet Archive is an awesome resource, but I still think I want to find the physical books again.

@IamMrsGeek I’m pretty sure there’s some karmic rebalancing going on here for my noisy D&D etc sessions

@cordelya I haven’t even stayed with a game long enough to spend more than a total of a couple minutes in the nether, and I have this problem.
Died 800m from home.
“well guess it’s time for a new game”
