Oh and somebody new’s shown up with some kind of staccato effect reminiscent of automatic weapons fire.

Trying to make up for time lost due to rain last night, no doubt.

I remember a feel of “this time we’ll get it right” directed at the then-tweens, now Elder Millennials.

Us latchkey kids - we were clearly a mistake, as evidenced by grunge, gangster rap, distrust of branding, emphasis on personal action, etc

We were the boomer’s first pancake.

Title: unknown. Artist: Tulu Guya

He’s from Ethiopia. Look up his woodcuts, and brother Lemma Guya.

Jack forgot to provide attribution for a fascinating painting. Probably borrowed from the other non-crediting site that showed up via Tineye.

Be curious. And give credit. https://t.co/9kYMmIvFjq

Said sluggishness may also have nothing to do with CPU or Syncthing, and more to do with me not properly cleaning logs on the 8GB SD card used for / directory

Good system hygiene is a must. Rotate your logs regularly!

I just laughed the laugh of somebody who once had to learn the same lesson.

tl;dr: Dear board of directors, replace Jack or we’ll replace you.
