What if Wile E. Coyote was tripping on peyote in the desert the entire time and hallucinated the Roadrunner?

So much would be explained.

A #puzzle challenge for anyone who doesn't know what to do with their weekend:
Based on the first six examples of #microprocessor program code and the output they produce, work out the #architecture of the micro-processor, what the instructions do, and how the display is wired.
Then demonstrate what the seventh instruction displays by typing out the result.

@gemlog Me too, but lately I've taken to telling new friends my son was born and raised in a violent nation. Nobody should be killed for indirectly saving lives, but that's my view and it's among the views that made me unfit to stay below the border

About ready to celebrate my 5000th #geocache find, and 1200th #Unknown puzzle find. #Buntzen Lake Park had five solved coordinates. Good weather and easy parking.

It is -13 Celsius where I live, the coldest outdoor temperature I have witnessed in my adult life. I might contact my Member of Parliament for tips on withstanding the deep freeze if I have to go out. I don't have the snowsuit, mitts, and snowboots from my National Capital Region early childhood.

@joeo10 another "Carmen" trivia bit: in 1951, Peter Sellers narrated a UK re-release

It is a long-established #fediverse courtesy to use a hashtag for politics. Examples: #frpol, #uspol, #ukpol, #txpol, #canpol, #nspol.
Another courtesy is to use CW with the *pol or similar as subject above the fold.
Some of us intentionally do not follow regional, national, or foreign politics. We do have interest in other topics. Use of these courtesies might just convince someone to press that Follow icon

Please and thank you.

Are the new users commenting on server loads and lag aware that a five-digit number of accounts registered on this relatively small server, an unprecedented and wholly unexpected number, within a week?

Also, this platform, not this instance, has been around for over a decade. This instance started in May 2017, and is not a replacement for commercial Twitter.
