Took today off for a much needed break. Playing two rounds of disc golf is just what the doctor ordered

Watching "Designated Survivor" I really thought Terry Serpico was Anthony Michael Hall. Definitely cousin level similarly

reposting this cool and easy Lego MOC. It didn't show the image so I'm reposting it so you can see it and click through if you want. www.reddit.com/media?url=ht...

Organized my garage a bit today and got my disc golf stuff tidy. I'm liking it. Now I just need some decent weather so I can go outside without freezing.

once the sun melted the ice/snow on our solar panels things have been looking better on the home engergy front: in Jan we used 994kWh (imported from the grid) In Feb we net imported 0kWh and exported an additional 198kWh (credit toward future usage of the grid).

Its one thing believing Congress has given up on their responsibility - its another to be told outright by the speaker of the house. www.axios.com/2025/02/11/j...

If I'm reading this right - suspending enforcement - also means suspending enforcement of bribes in the US.. > The law was amended in 1998 to apply to foreign firms and people who caused such bribes to take place within the United States. www.cnbc.com/2025/02/10/t...

TV Streaming is too complicated with too many options that cost too much. Cable sucks, streaming sucks. WTF yo? I need to get some OTA antennas and find some way to get the weird shit my wife likes to watch, like Rugby, and the normal shit like HGTV and Food in a way that doesn't break the bank.

Fun disc golf event to celebrate friends having a baby. Started on 12, slipped on a wooden bridge and bashed my left hip after throwing out of bounds. Followed up with a hole in one (ace) on 13. Crazy round with 7 birdies in a row.

Listening to Hosier sing "regulate" on BBC Live lounge recording.. that is some weird shit to hear first thing in the morning. Not every song needs a cover.

Pretty good comic. Got a good chuckle. Such a funny angle to take.. I saw this on reddit but a bigger version is here: www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/to... Go give it an upvote if you liked it. www.reddit.com/r/comics/com...

I wonder what the fallout would be if the entire CIA took up the offer? www.reuters.com/world/us/cia...

I don't know about this.. but I feel like it has to be unconstitutional to just ship off our inmates to another country where they will not have due process, protections from cruel and unusual punishment etc? Am I crazy? www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/a...

Started seeing this banner on all my banking apps today (might have been there sooner) but it popped out to me today I don't recall seeing the tagline "FDIC-Insured—Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government" along with the FDIC logo before.

My solar panels are finally free of snow and Ice and are furiously mining the sun! I get 1:1 net metering and I've got no batteries yet. I'm liking this trend.

I like to use Libby to check out books onto my kindle. However, I don't like Amazon. So, after yesterday I'm basically done using that process. I returned the book I finished and won't reuse that process to get a follow up book. I will use my kindle just not via Amazon anymore.

Played a game called "Clank!" last night. It was really easy to learn and was fun to play. The deck "building" didn't feal onerous, the dynamic map was a cool part, and the fact that even if you don't escape the dungeon you are still involved and can still, possibly win, is pretty cool.

Yesterday had the privledge of playing in the 28th local Ice bowl disc golf tourny. Doubles. We did okay in the first round (apx rating of 895), 3 behind the leaders. In round two we woke up and shot a -9 on a very hard course apx 975 rated and end up in a 3 way tie for 1st. We lost in playoff. 1/2

Deleted my Instagram account. My second time. This one was from 2014. I've been off Facebook since 2016 but basically stayed in the ecosystem via insta. I think I'm off completely now Any other accounts I need to know about? Been off Twitter since the Nazi bought it

My mom needed to use FEMA and it wasn't a great experience. But, it was a hell of a lot better than not having anyone present with experience coordinating all the different agencies/services operating. Getting rid of FEMA will force each state to build their own FEMA. Maybe they already have one?

With the renaming of Denali back to Mt. Mckinley I wonder if this interesting page will persist: www.nps.gov/dena/learn/h... I learned a bit reading it including that it was originally named Denali.

The whole tariff "stick" to get people to do what you want is interesting. Sure, we pay the tarrif. But, we're a huge economy and lots of industries and countries depend on us spending money. I dont think tarrifs will help spawn manufacturing here - but it might pick winners and losers abroad. 1/5
