Daughter did some re-grouping of stuffies today, @kernelcon.bsky.social and @shmoocon.bsky.social crowds are buddying up

Unexpectedly seeing a final homecoming is a sobering and powerful sight. Such an ultimate, patriotic sacrifice accompanied by respect and honor displayed by pallbearers instantly recalibrates thoughts, concerns, meaningfulness.

Going through some boxes and found a Best Buy bag containing these CDs. Anyone remember what they have in common?

At the time, many amazing and now commonplace inventions where misunderstood, ridiculed, or deemed impractical. However, we now have radio (in the link), x-ray, personal computers, post-it notes, velcro, airplanes, video with sound, and refrigerators.

How high do tariffs have to be for the business models to change to border smuggling normal products vs illegal ones?

There are better ways to do this.

Disney is also pulling on those strings, but so hard they're about to break

Post a photo you took with no context to bring some zen to the timeline.

So, basically tariffs are off, tictok ban is off, mass firing of probationary fed workers is off (but probably still gutting VA?), foreign aid payments back on (but not if you're in a high profile war), WTH is going on? At least the market is inching back up today.

Definitively not. Evidence: I haven't gotten in trouble for not doing any of those things yet.

I get home from @shmoocon.bsky.social which is full of shmooconography, hidden and obscured messages everywhere, and find this. The words, the punctuation, am I supposed to do something? WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Not sure I want to know what's in here...

Ok, but the headline doesn't sound as good when you tack on "... reasonable mission length, like sorties of ~7 hours" It could go across the US on one tank (~1 hr), but longer flights would need refuelling. And I believe it typically didn't take off with a full tank.

Come see one at the SAC museum just outside Omaha! Perhaps after attending Kernelcon in April!

Holy smokes, I might just buy myself a Blu-ray player for every TV.

Tim @tvidas.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

Now I have to implore my family members to remember to find the movie in an app vs shared library, and use a generic payback interface, 🤞 hopefully still logged in, all to watch a 70 year old movie seasonally. It's the pain that keeps on giving.

Tim @tvidas.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

Finally redeem on computer, try to log in to app on phone, app doesn't ever get past load screen, download app on TV, get logged in via QR and phone browser, get past all the other movies being pushed to find White Christmas in my library, play movie in crummy Fandango interface

Tim @tvidas.bsky.social · 23/12/2024

Purchase, go to digital code redeem site, find out it's limited to only two methods, discover Vudu was bought by @Fandango, try to log into Fandango for which I apparently have two accounts... one is FandangoNow but the other isn't "upgraded" yet, skip providing a cc number, ...
