It is going to take two and a half days to go from Missoula to Missoula.

So this is a new one for me… product comes from Spokane to Missoula (the final destination) and is then sent to Billings… where it will inevitably be sent to… Missoula.

You could walk across Missoula in the time it takes to go to Billings and back.

I just ordered two.

I have an air tag in my camper. One will go there. (and I’m hoping it makes it less likely you could hear it beeping)

And I bought the second just because of the pricing… but I think it will go into the dry bag for my inflatable kayaks.

Both are items I want to work when I need them and hope I never do.

If the other monkeys let this happen, we would say they deserved to starve.

Monkeys would not let this happen.

Mastodon.sdg.org has been having issues the last two days and I sincerely believe the ‘pub’ part of ‘activitypub’ was a serious mistake.

If I ran my own instance, how would I retrieve everything that was missed while the server was offline and did not get the pub notifications? #JustWondering

Am I completely misunderstanding the protocol?

It is telling how little so many men know about women.

And what a wonderful journey life is when you don’t exclude more than half of the world’s population.

Unpopular opinion: I think that getting rid of the electoral college is the wrong goal.

We need to get rid of the entire concept of states being able to do whatever they want.

“States rights” exist only because of slavery.

Kill it.

One government, for all.

When in the Air Force the lab supervisor realized that everything I touched went to shit… so, they put me in charge of QA.

We had one of the lowest failure rates in the service that year.

When working at a nuclear weapons plant and the team wanted to work overtime… they would take me with them. Because, if something is broke… you stay until it is fixed.

I don’t break the stuff… but if it is flaky, it’ll show its true colors if I am present.

@botvolution

I mean… I don’t have an account there.

And, I would not post a link on social media to something that required having an account and being logged in.

That is a huge assumption…

I don’t quite understand posting a link to a site that requires an account…

@botvolution

You could probably install solar and batteries for your house and buy a cheaper car for the same cost tho…

That thing where you plug your house into your camper… and not the other way around.

Winter storm watch… mid June…

I disagree with the idea of billionaires.

@thomasfuchs @Migueldeicaza

I know this is an analogy… but why are you paying rent at the mall if you have no customers there?

Why are you in that mall at all if that isn’t where your customers are?

@thomasfuchs

Ah, that helps… thanks for the context.

@thomasfuchs

I’m kinda at a loss and have no idea what the feeling or issue is.

I would watch the video and move on… like any other yt video.

@thomasfuchs

I see what you did there. #boobies

@thomasfuchs @alanevans

I was kinda expecting a sentence of smallish black text on white saying something about not crossing when water is present.

But, that is pretty explicit!

@alanevans @thomasfuchs

Can’t help but wonder what that sign says…
