@Demlyn I treat the skip ad button for those ads as reflex speed tests

@LindaWisner At least it's not just me 😄

I've noticed my YouTube ads have gotten way crappier of late. I mean, they were never great but now they're entering "doctors hate this one weird trick" territory.

@KarenSohne Thanks. It's been decades since I bought a car, this should be interesting.

@Sandywb14 good point!

@KarenSohne I think the writing is on the wall for this one, unfortunately

Picked up my car from the mechanic's today. It's getting old enough now that not everything wrong with it can or should be fixed...
It might be time to start thinking about a new car.

No thanks. I already had roof damage from one of these atmospheric rivers 3 years ago. Let's hope it misses NorCal altogether.

@tw33k I'm planning to use it mostly to run Mathematica, since it comes with a license for it. And I'll probably use that mostly to generate cool looking graphics :)

Setting up my new raspberry pi 5...

@Jess same! 😄

Currently torn between doing things around the house and staying close to a heat source.

There's a bird outside (probably a barn owl) that sounds like a screaming banshee, and it's really unnerving.

@Ruthat It's an old car, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised

Update: there's a lot more than the window that needs fixing and it's gonna cost a lot 😬. Oh well...
