James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Oh, yeah. PSA. If you google "Love number" without modifiers, you may get some NSFW results. 110
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 27/09/2026No, you just need to clean off the lens. How many times have I told you not to eat crackers around the telescope? 010
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Did... did you steal my banana for that shot? I was gonna eat that! 101
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 23/09/2026That's the exact model I used! No hard drive; one floppy for the OS, one for the word processor or whatever else you were doing. Keyboard folds into the screen and the computer is "portable." 100
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 22/09/2026"Stars are the birds of the sky." I'm going to start using that one. 040
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Did you see the Gizmoplex episodes? Joel, Jonah, and Emily each have their own SoL with their own bots on it. Plus there's that extra Crow in 1985 from the Time Chasers episode that's never been accounted for. 120

James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 09/09/2026You know, I've driven by that countless times on my way too and from C'ville, but never actually stopped! 210
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I know Devil's Night from the movie "The Crow" but never encountered it in any other context. 020
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Poked around a bit with the responses and the "y'all" thing alone really skews it south. 020
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Kept toggling between putting me in Michigan and DC. Which, I was born in Ann Arbor and grew up in Chantilly, so that tracks. I do have a tendency to code-switch. I’ll say “pop” around my MI family, but “soda” around most others. I've adopted "y'all" from my wife, which I def didn't grow up with. 130
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Following today's Executive Order renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America, it occurs to me that the classic mnemonic "HOMES" to remember the names of the Great Lakes no longer works. As a replacement, I recommend "SHAME" 010
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Geoffrey Rush. Did not realize at first that Captain Barbosa and Casanova Frankenstein were the same person. 030
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 17/08/2026I understand that, but could you please not destroy the Earth in the process? That's where I keep all my stuff. 100
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Is that what all these recent earthquakes are? Practice? Paul Byrne, Destroyer of Worlds. 110
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Not to be "that guy," but I'm about to. Moving to the woods won't help if you still have a phone. My policy is never to answer the phone or listen to voicemails. Much happier that way. If it so much as makes a noise, I will drop that thing into the nearest volcano. 020
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Personally, I heard "attic" instead of "outlet." Oops. 020
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 10/08/2026I guess we could do a test Run to explore some of the more Shadowy elements they're talking about. Some kind of "Shadow Run." Personally, I don't know what you would even _call_ something like that, but it's worth considering. 010
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 04/08/2026And while it may be months before you get any feedback about the next step, you have to turn it around in like two to three days. 020
James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Yeah, but the walkway up the side is closed right just now. 000

James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Depends on the hobby and depends on the hobbyist. There's no one right answer. That's what I love about science. 000

James Roberts @j-r0b.bsky.social · 04/07/2026It's been so long since I've been able to cover my (actually a white)board with equations that the last batch is now permanent. The dry-erase marker won't erase anymore. 010
