Looks like the script I'm using to mirror LSUbaseball got stuck in a loop today. Its sync cache file must not be updating or something similar. I've bumped the synchronization frequency from every minute to every 5 minutes with the hope that allows the cache to be saved, if that is the issue.

One painful omission from Bluesky has been LSU baseball's excellent in-game updates and posts. Since I have no desire to keep using my Twitter account and LSUBaseball hasn't migrated to 🦋 yet, I decided to create a bot that will mirror their posts: @lsubaseball-mirror.bsky.social

A favorite recent project: Peakscapes. I love the layered looks you get in the #mountains, and I always want to be able to name everything in view. These designs provide a cleaner, more idealized view of the landscape than a photo can. Are they #maps? Or geographic art? I'm not sure.

My favorite part of watching any live game on my Apple TV is re-authenticating ESPN every month. Let’s me know I’m still mortal.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

This chart shows how much of an outlier Trump is historically. Even Biden, who had the next highest disapproval when he took office, still had a plus-20 differential. news.gallup.com/poll/655955/...

All hail the 3 foot crawfish.

Speaking of national anthems at the Super Bowl, I am stoked to hear Jon Batiste's rendition of the The Star-Spangled Banner next week.

With the Super Bowl one week out, I've been revisiting all the performances from previous SBs. My S-tier contains only one act: Chris Stapleton at Super Bowl LVII, 12 February, 2023. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFKX...

King Cake Drive-Thru was a success this morning.

I can’t believe it’s day 4 of waking up to snow on the ground in south Louisiana.

Bird dog: points at bush, indicating birds inside. There are no birds. This unit is defective.

Atchafalaya Basin looks like all ice.

It’s a little cold this morning.

Blizzard on the bayou.

Y’all come check out my new band, Thundersnow.

Almost 5 inches of snow and still coming down. The only Louisiana snow I’m familiar with disappears after one hour and I’d still be wearing shorts. This is insane.

historic record-breaking snowstorm coming to…south Louisiana. To put into perspective, the last time it snowed 1” in the city was 1963. They’re predicting a potential 3-5” tomorrow.

Conan O’Brien will be awarded the 26th annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in March, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts announced Thursday. nyti.ms/42hpHCV

this @alanrozenshtein.com take seems to be the consensus view among legal scholars. back-end providers, including Trump ally Larry Ellison’s Oracle, taking Trump’s word over the letter of the law and Apple and Google saying yyeeahhhh that ain’t good enough

Something about Tiktok getting banned for the potential of Chinese access to our data and then Americans banding together to make the direct Chinese version #1 on the app store the next day is poetic. What a weird chapter in this history books this will be

It might be a while before we see Apple feature another company's computer on apple.com.

Carrot Weather now supports radar in CarPlay!

I am excited for this, but Switch 2 now looks like every other handheld hunk of black slab. The vibrant colors of the OG Switch helped make it stand out.

I didn’t realize e-ink could now display colors. This is a really interesting idea. www.theverge.com/2025/1/7/243...

I need someone other than me to bear witness to these amazing drawings of Mardi Gras costumes from the late 1800s. All done by Charles Briton, a Swedish lithographer. bibliodyssey.blogspot.com/2010/05/mard...
