@meganL The only station I have a chance of receiving is PBS from the next state over. I'd buy an antenna and perhaps get a Tivo if we weren't already paying streaming services (much to my annoyance).

@jonn_blanchard Remember when computer manuals included a fold-out schematic?

@xyhhx I'm very much in favour of renewables but I think we'll need fission to meet baseload until an alternative can be made practical.

@killyourfm I thought you meant it failed, not that the battery was exhausted.

@thomasfuchs Is that a MOS Technologies shirt?

@OldAndCranky Refractastic!

@tchambers Are you talking about The Fediverse or a fediverse?

@vkc Have you considered CP/M-86? ;-)

Just had a brief rolling conversation with someone who commutes about 25km each way on an electric #bicycle.

@thomasfuchs Then we find out that Soong was a cat.

@blakespot @thomasfuchs DX-50 too I think, not DX2.

@thomasfuchs Is that a Z-158?

Today I noticed that Meijer has a roof over their #bicycle parking.

@cato manyvSD cards write slowly. To be sure, what do you see when you dd (image file on) NAS to /dev/null or /dev/zero to SD card?

We fed 135 TB of tape to the robot. #backups

@MediaActivist Elect Dandelion & Burdock! :-9

I uh... think I'll assume that sudden chest pain was just a lung spasm. Yeah, that was it.

@RL_Dane I had a doctor tell me years ago not to worry about them. This one passed after a few minutes and I'm short of breath but comfortable enough to sit and read.

@evelyn @RL_Dane I'm overdue for a checkup but can't afford labs etc.

@evelyn @Hawk1291 @RL_Dane It's difficult enough to afford even at employer-negotiated prices. There's no way most people could buy it at individual rates!
