@nebkor Nearly forgot to mention one important aspect of the split. I’ve got it set up so my primary system gets 2/3 of the monitor, and secondary gets 1/3.
But 49" curved arranged vertically would still be cool, despite the inevitable neck strain.

@bitprophet @jack I am obligated to brain today, but other than one anxious thread where folks acknowledge they have voted and are anxious, it’s pretty much a normal Tuesday on Slack.

Wishing everyone a very happy Keyword Mute day.

For my part I’ll be reading and occasionally responding to toots relevant to the holiday, but unlikely to boost them.
Least I can do if my friends out here are anywhere near as anxious as me. No need to spread it around.

Brain ready to tune in properly to work.
BRRRRRRRZZZZZZ
Landscapers with impeccable timing as always.

@kusuriya @Wrewdison @thegibson @nathans dangit I mixed up the order again.
Would somebody mind sending a rescue team to the bridge? Yeah, the one on fire. Cool, thanks.
Also, does anybody need a silo full of salt?

I got my work laptop and I got my personal laptop. Both nearly always in clamshell mode.
Any #LazyWeb folks got ideas for something like a mini-rack setup such that the laptops are in close proximity, but heat and cable chaos are addressed?
This is an obnoxiously frivolous thought, but we’re talking Apple device workflows, where “obnoxious” and “frivolous” can be considered selling points.
NOTE: I do not own a 3D printer, and getting one would mean I now have new problems.

All else fails I might pick up a couple old school stacking inbox/outbox trays.

Patiently waiting for landscaping and leaf blowing (blowing rocks actually because desert) to wrap up so I can try thinking again.

On our weird exercise machine to get the blood pumping a little before standup.
Bouncy Dog is confused and concerned.

For social media guidelines, election night is same as any other disaster.
Wait for facts. Do not accidentally or intentionally spread grifts, propaganda, confabulations, and panic attacks.
And hey:

Read the evening’s election results so far from @TucsonSentinel. Locally at least things look promising.
But the most important sentence:
“The final count isn’t expected to be complete until next week.”
So I should go try to get some sleep for a few days.

Puttered a bit on some Go code tonight. Tried not to think too much about current events.
Meanwhile: cats.

Jack sporting a shaved patch where he had an IV at the vet. He’s clearly feeling better, though we’re still in the twice-daily aftercare routine.

@m and something I didn’t catch until just now: Jack’s feeling well enough to hang out with Barry. For a couple of days there he’d hiss any time Barry got close.
(To be fair, Barry can be a lot if you aren’t feeling well)

Do what you gotta do. Be safe. Find your hope. Make your home.
I’m home. My blood’s been here a century or four, maybe more than 10 millennia — depending on which branch of the family tree you look at and your thoughts on the Bering Land Bridge.
This body’s been here half a century and I plan to be locally problematic for a few more decades at least.

@thegibson you’ve got to respect the priorities. Mine are few, and I can do more damage / good by limiting context shifts.
