I do things with stuff that wasn’t meant to do the things I make it do.

Sign me up yesterday.

When I hike in the Midwest, I usually pulled 5 to 30 ticks off after.

This was in Saratoga, CA.

Thank you.

Yes, yes, they are.

Don’t like carpenter bees boring holes in your house?

Hang up a bee log. A better house for them.

Random old log with a bunch of holes bored in (and up) about a half an inch.

They haven’t touched the house since and I get to enjoy these huge, beautiful, curious, fuzzy buzzies.

DON’T TOUCH THE PHONE OR YOU’LL CORRUPT MY DOWNLOAD AND I’LL HAVE TO START ALL OVER.

And if people go all in on raw milk….

Sigh. Don’t want to think about it.

Yeah.

I’m not exactly real comfortable with our chances with the incoming administration if there is any sort of an outbreak.

Even the handling of H5N1 under the current administration has been woefully lacking.

Yes. It confirms that a ton of people are falling for the misinformation campaigns aimed at Teslas and EVs, in general.

I was asked to test a bunch of 68040s for a math bug of a similar nature.

Wrote a Lorenz attractor calculator using a standards compliant math library.

If any two generated images contained a difference when started with the same seed, bug found!
