I didn't realize that this afternoon was the Snoop Dog Arizona Bowl.

Can we gather funds to get a Bowl game named after a Mastodon/Fedi personality?

Switched from em dashes to writing with en dashes with spaces a couple of years ago to help with some of the typesetting experiments I was doing, but am so tempted to switch back because of all of the ignorant assholes who think common writing ticks and habits are only used by fucking ChatGPT

Creating Strong Passwords

Reusing passwords is a dangerous security practice. If someone gets ahold of your password—whether that's from a data breach, or wherever else—they can often gain access to any other account you used that same password. The solution is to use unique passwords everywhere and take additional steps to secure your...

I was browsing my photo library and stumbled upon this home screen screenshot from 2018

landscape home screens were cool

My iPhone home screen in 2018, but in landscape mode. At the time iPhones Plus models could display the home screen in landscape.

As interbasin transfers go, the Potter Valley Penstock isn’t as impressive as the Adams Tunnel in Colorado. It’s a 3m diameter tunnel running 21km from Grand Lake to Mary’s lake, a drop of only 33m. But… it goes 1200m under the peak of the Continental Divide, diverting Colorado River water bound for the Gulf of California into the Front Range instead, eventually flowing into the Mississippi.

@Cdespinosa Now I want to compare this to the Snowy Mountains Scheme, to understand where it fits in a global hierarchy. I’ve been meaning to visit the point at which it delivers water under the continental divide (“Great Dividing Range”), which is a 2-night 3-day affair.

@evan Ty for this. I think it might be easier if I just go back to my previous 'never saying this out loud' position, which I think was probably easier all round :)

Hotel stray, a Canarian kitten. #Caturday

Another Canarian cat, checking out the aloe.

#Caturday

A white and black cat with a collar walks beside a large aloe vera plant at the foot of a palm tree on a sidewalk, with a red car partially visible in the background.

Update: see my replies below

original post

Is the internet being weird for anyone else this morning, or is it just us? Most evidence suggests it's a local problem, since some computers seem to be having no trouble (after I reset a couple of things), but some are still persistently being weird and I'm wondering if maybe there's a larger problem that isn't affecting all machines the same.

The weirdest thing is that I can access sites just fine with wget, but then browsers (on certain machines) give an ERR_CONNECTION_RESET on the exact same site. ping appears unaffected.
