@sheseala those dudes have good hand strength

@Keysalagain I highly recommended their cookbook https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-world-central-kitchen-cookbook-feeding-humanity-feeding-hope-jose-andres/19507823

@LadyZurk these billows tempt me but it's a lot of money and feels like cheating. I can usually hold it at 250 a good long while. Winter is a different story, really challenging.

Not really cold but have a lot of deadfall. Yeah that's the reason, sure

@corlin Will business schools learn anything from this? Will Wall St.?
Pfft, just kidding.

@ecksmc humanoid format makes little to no sense except as a research project and/or to garner investment. So many disadvantages.

@MLClark Dilbert Stark is good, hadn't heard that one.
Robots. NASA's had great success with relatively cheap robots. Send a swarm of them to tunnel into the moon, build something airtight. Maybe if we can do that we can talk about sending fragile squishy water bags

It's so difficult to understand the scope and scale of flooding from that hurricane. That article has this picture of a shipping container crushed in the river. Crikes.

@BreakingNews Why, from whom? IDGAF

@AskTheDevil You've confirmed all my suspicions, thanks I hate it. Still going to hound them and the Campaign to do better.

@AskTheDevil I sort of understand that. I think/suspect at this point in time they're undermining even that purpose by being massively annoying. Also forgot to mention that they constantly prod with, "We see you've donated [x] dollars", where x isn't remotely accurate. A) Using shame, really? Bad tactics. B) If they can't keep their records straight I ain't giving them anything.
I know they did Obama a lot of good; hope they can reset.

@jordicusmaximus A few news stories is all I need

I hope actblue re-evaluates their entire m.o. because they are currently standing on my last nerve. Their over the top communication routine is, IMHO, bad enough but they've inspired copy cats, some of which are straight-up grifters. I've donated directly to the campaign is there even a reason for actblue anymore? It's like even more annoying MailChimp.
Gonna track down the contact for the CEO and give them a taste of their own medicine. #politics #USA #venting

Think you're going to be able to access all your cat pictures^H^H^H very important files in 10,20 years? Maybe if you're lucky. The US National Archives has a handy framework to help figure it out and it's just been updated. On GitHub, get some.
Also check out those groovy terminals, mmmmm vintage IBM.
