I'm curious about Amtrak checked baggage procedure. I want to know if I'm allowed to send my suitcase to a stop other than where I got off, and then I'd arrive later to pick it up. Specifically, the Floridian in Chicago if I get off in South Bend, and the Builder in Seattle if I get off in Portland.

On this day in 1912, Alfred Wegener first presented his hypothesis of continental drift to the German Geological Society, and he was laughed out of the room.

Fun fact: the MBTA Blue Line is transgender and genderfluid. It transitioned from light rail to heavy rail in 1924, and is genderfluid because both pantograph and third rail are used.

Why does the South Shore Line go to South Bend airport instead of the Amtrak station? It's a minor regional airport, so who the heck from Chicago is getting a flight out of South Bend? They should cancel the project to put it on the other side of the airport, and bring it back to the Amtrak station!

A mysterious thing I have is this pyramid-shaped cardboard box for something called PRODUIT MODERNE • LIMITED EXPRESS which was apparently a clothing company, so what on earth would've been in this small weird box?

Driverless Train
Rupert Wates
On this day in 1962, the New York subway invented the world's first driverless train on the IRT Shuttle. Sadly, it was soon destroyed in an unrelated fire, and New York wouldn't get another driverless train until 2003.

Here's my latest Zelda theory, a twist on the old Triforce Wish Timeline but moving the point of divergence to the beginning of OoT instead of the end. This neatly eliminates the awkward circumstances of the Downfall Timeline and has few issues with Ganondorf's lore worse than what TotK already did.

I'm looking for a new keyboard to replace the Roland Go that I currently have. I really like it, but it's a bit big and unwieldy to carry out to record music videos on-location. Features I'm looking for include
- 49 keys
- less than 8 lbs
- internal soundfont and a built-in speaker
Anyone got ideas?

I'm nearly done with planning the dumbest MBTA Commuter Rail speedrun anybody will ever do: the 1976 edition. Current estimate is about 28 hours long, requiring an all-nighter in a McDonald's in Stoughton before walking two hours in the freezing cold to Sharon. Anyone crazy enough to join me for it?

In the modern day, the three most serious crimes you can be convicted of are stealing mail, counterfeit money, and pointing lasers at planes. Clearly, not even murder is as serious as those, since people can get away with murder all the time.

There is only one useful thing AI can do, and that is making spreadsheet formulas. Imagine a small language model trained only on the documentation for Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel. You tell it what you want the complicated formula to do, and it makes it. Any other feature is unnecessary bloat.

Let me show you the most disappointing shirt I ever bought, this Sahara shirt from Hermitcraft Season 6, circa 2019. We got the gray shirt but didn't realize it would be the exact same color as the text on it. Such an epic design fail I hardly ever wore it.
