@JLong wonder how long those cars work if the LTE modem fuse goes missing.

@evistre Good dog.
Mine leads me to leaves that need to be raked into a pile so he can DESTROY THAT PILE

@nursefrombirth
I think eventually we figure out some other way than factory farms. They're fragile, terrible, and smell horrific. Also terrible.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts oh right, yes, very important! Dry out any rock that goes on top. Probably safe to leave them underneath the stove, here we get into geology and permeability and I don't know anything. But river rocks will definitely cause problems, can confirm!

@tyghebright @mcfate
Wonder if that got them some attention from George Takei. He was a kid in one of those camps.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts The stone might eventually break or get discolored, otherwise it should be fine! I keep either a stock pot of water on top -- more for humidity -- or stones.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts as you know, heaters are worst case scenario for power consumption. If there's a way to heat some mass (cinder block, brick) it may stretch the benefit. I'm tuned in to see how it goes!

What is this heresy. LaTeX* type setting has been around since 1993(?) Now some upstart Rust developer thinks they can make a more friendly, better system that compiles 100 times faster, and oh hey that's pretty nice output....

@corlin I might have to get in on this racket. Subvert the dominant paradigm and all.

The flies of November are enormous, what the heck.

The pup regards them as High Value Targets and I'm going to have to replace furniture soon.

@redenigma @catlynne333 @InvaderGzim
Exactly. Many advantages to not having a landline.
But even when I had a landline; nada. Just lucky.

@MLClark Love this game, and I also think about which of these things "stick". We've come up with a lot of enabling technology. Some is flash in the pan, other stuff endures for decades/centuries. The monograph, stairs*, fax machine, qwerty keyboard, basic wheelchair. Could fill a book...

*stairs are even deadly but we keep 'em around.
