It’s wild how so many people don’t know how to drive in the rain in an area known for rain. :blobfoxdisapprove: #Seattle

Cleaning hurricane damaged retro computers & CRTs — LGR

When Hurricane Helene hit my home in Asheville, North Carolina in September 2024, two oak trees fell through the roof and wrecked the place. Including the main LGR vintage computer collection downstairs where lots of rain water leaked through, resulting in moisture and mold issues. This first part of the cleanup process is unboxing the moldy boxes, evaluating the damage, and cleaning the surfaces of things! Internal cleaning and testing will occur later.

Found the cause:

Open source software has its advantages. :blobfox:

I wonder what header this is. :blobfoxthonking: #macOS

You know I’m getting serious when working on something in the physical world because I take my glasses off. This is because pretty much the same reasond why many people get contact lenses, plus I get sweaty when working. :blobfoxgooglycry:

Why don’t I wear contacts? It’s because I need prism for my misaligned eyes that contacts can’t fix. :blobfoxcry:

Kind of wild how video cards are this big again, or even bigger! :blobfoxgooglymlem: (Source)

45-car pileup on southbound I-5 closes freeway for hours in Kent

Up to 45 cars were involved in a multi-car crash around 1:20 p.m., forcing the closure of southbound I-5 in Kent.

The Washington State Patrol (WSP) closed all southbound lanes to allow first responders and tow trucks to reach the crash site.

Trooper Rick Johnson with WSP said that there were only minor injuries.

Traffic was being diverted to SR 516 until all the cars could be taken off the road.

Several first responders and agencies answered the call including officials with the Washington State Patrol, Washington State Department of Transportation, local fire and paramedics.

The backup reached 5 miles, officials with WSP and WSDOT said.

The road was reopened at 4:15 p.m. but it is taking some time to clear the backup.

During the closure, people were told to plan for added travel time and seek alternative routes.

Real-time traffic information is available on the WSDOT mobile app and the Travel Center Map, or by signing up for email updates.

WSP is investigating the cause as a single crash.
