I keep breaking my bot trying to fix it but it's fixed now. Again.

Dance off!

Just saw a video of the latest eruption of Etna. A bunch of tourists slightly walking faster away, some stopping to shoot video and some walking back up to get better shots and I'm pretty sure none of them have ever heard of a pyroclastic flow

Reasons why don't we want to be the 51st state. 1) Today

I would argue that in addition to the "reluctance to consult agreeably" - its that the "Crown's" version of consultation does not permit dissent. No mechanism within the process of consultation exists for Indigenous people to veto projects they would deem harmful to them or their lands.

So the 1930 russian cybertruck image making the rounds? AI generated garbage. Don't share it.

Sam figures if he sits on my bike stuff & looks sad I won't be able to go to the studio. Sorry buddy.

My opinion changes but currently, the best guitar tone ever recorded is on Brothers In Arms.

Watching Malcolm In the Middle and there's an episode where Abe says to Lois about Hal. "He's a huge fan of classic Trek. It's not something you share with your wife." (And then George Takei showed up) So of course I thought of @benjaminahr.mobi #fod

No arting today. Was an entire computer day but I'm super happy. I finally got all my VMs set up & talking to each other (MySQL Vm, Lucee VM & a Mint VM to admin both), have a separate network for the public websites, and now I'm actually building website stuff. All on open source software.

Hey #yeg you might want to get out and get your walk/bike in. Much of the rest of the day looks to be less good. I use www.windy.com with the PM2.5 layer to see what's on the way. Also looks like that we'll be out of the smoke for several days starting early tomorrow.

The latest @tastinghistory.bsky.social video has TWO hardtack mentions! TWO!

Summer. Where my plans to be healthy & environmentally responsible by riding my bike is highly dependent on whether I can breathe due to wildfire smoke due to the climate emergency. And if I can't, I have to drive my car, making things worse. I hate this so much.

Approximately 1 post out of 20 here is not devastatingly awful. So that's fun.

I made some changes to @yegaqmonitor.bsky.social 1) Added an Air Quality indicator to make reading the alert easier 2) Added a dedicated phone to host the @atmotube.com app so the bot will keep reporting 24hrs/day 3) added the ability for me to add nonscheduled & informational posts 4) a new pfp

Just 90 minutes on the WIP today...Computer work needed doing.
