Is the brand real? Or is this some ai slop some poor seamstress is going to have to figure out after you order it that’s going to look like someone heard a description of this once and tried to recreate it from memory? Also does it have pockets?

One of the local curlers owns the local franchise. Hopefully once we have a place, they’ll do some catering for us

How did that half take twice as long as an average game?

We have broken the ceremonial ice for the new @curlaksarben.bsky.social facility
A sledgehammer and a curling stone sit on a green carpet in a concrete warehouse. A block of ice is shattered behind the stone and sledge, with shards littering the carpet throughout.

I had already made bonspiel plans before I saw the barcamp date

No matter the stakes, it’s hard to win a bonspiel (or even an event at a bonspiel)

Sad. You hate to see it! There’s at least one in our curling club and around the Pokémon go scene too

I do love when the storms aren't severe

This thing was built to run windows, they ended up shipping it with android for various "Microsoft gonna Microsoft" reasons

I've had an iPhone Duo for years now, it just wasn't made by Apple
A Surface Duo held in a hand with two apps running side by side: Bluesky on the left (showing a post about curling) and a browser on the right (showing a weather forecast)

My friend is at the match and I imagine he's mostly there for the vibes bsky.app/profile/cutl...

That works too 😅

step 1: install updates step 2: install Linux (wsl)

I would definitely be cool with clubs/arenas being more permissive of 3-player teams, it's just not the same advantage at our level it is at the "main" nationals level. Anything that doesn't lead to a world curling event
010
Nick @programmerman.net · 01/09/2026
I think it's reasonable for these playdowns to use the prior rules since the arena nationals is functionally the last event of the prior season even if it's technically the first event of the new season. And for this last chance especially, none of the other playdowns used the new rules
