#FurryMigration had a retro theme this year ("Be Kind; Rewind") so I brought my GameBoy Camera to get some fursuit pictures. I'm bad about conistently getting names, but I'll tag the ones that I can. @granitethehorse.bsky.social @quaggycharr.bsky.social

I'm reading typewriter service manual from like 1962, and this little guy keeps showing up in the diagrams.

Sometimes I think it was a mistake to let the programs we use primarily for viewing text and images become complex virtual machines that execute millions of lines of arbitrary code anytime a friend sends a link to a cat picture.

Trying to follow the modern economy feels like I'm playing a board game where I've supposedly been taught the rules, but nobody plays in a way that makes sense and the winners and losers are never whom I expect.

Parallel does amazing work. I got a backpack for @raijen.bsky.social as a gift, and he gets stopped by people at cons all the time, telling him how cute it is. You have about 3 hours to put in a form!

I got a show from the plane as the sun set on another Anthrocon. The con was wonderful, despite the weather. I'm glad I got to meet so many folks in suit, and I'm happy I got to spend time with many fuzzies I hold dear to me. I also loved the mini con we got to have in the airport on the way out.

Sometimes it's the little things in life that will just ruin your day.

Look at me, out here bench testing like I know what I'm doing. Let's not talk about the prototype PCBs I got fabbed with a design flaw, leading to this moment.

An electronics breadboard with several components and a mess of jumper wires. A green LED is illuminated near one of the components, which is probably a good thing.

The awful moment when you're finally making the phone call, but it's been ringing long enough that all your courage to speak with a stranger has evaporated. So you beg it to go to voicemail so you can just talk to a machine.

As LLM corpo-speak becomes more common at my work, I find myself drifting further toward the other end of the spectrum. Instead of messaging my team with: "Hey, can I get a quick review on this code change?" I'll drop: "I yet again yearn for personal and professional validation of my toils."

This has been a labor of love for MONTHS so I'm proud to announce that we'll be running the first ever game of "Where in the World is Corgi Sandiego?" at MFF! Because what more villainous vacation could there be besides a cat-and-mouse pursuit around the world?

This is one of the craziest stories from history that I'd never heard anything about before. It's a tragic drama with romance, political intrigue, and, of course, murder. I real-life gasped several times reading the article. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaucham Some choice quotes:

Last night, I was working on my mastodon->bluesky reposter, because it was adding blank posts to threads (a problem I thought I had fixed months ago). For like 2 hours, I hunted for the flaw in my logic that made it fail in those specific scenarios, but I couldn't recreate the problem. So I gave up.

I've always been a little irked by what the media will call a "technology". This one takes the cake. I'm cracking myself up imagining its backstory:

Chicken kebabs for dinner 😋 Some of the paneer wanted to stick to the grill, but they still turn out okay

Cooked kebabs on a tray and looking nicely charred, if I do say so myself.
