gonna let others handle the more cursed corners of discourse about this game and instead complain about how poor this Fox broadcast is. terrible color and dynamic range on the video and an inexplicably muddy audio mix. love Johm Strong but may have to switch back to Telemundo

feeling pretty good about this call lol

oh my god

@jjbbllkk.bsky.social I am really enjoying keeping Google Earth open during my first Waypoints playthrough. thank you for the rad album!

he looks so surprised by it

unexpected downside to getting a new (used) macro lens is capturing more clearly how gross everything is (first image is the new Laowa macro, taken by my previously best-magnifying Fuji 70-300, second vice-versa)

Bless the Tabby and Her kibble. Bless the kneading and purring of Her. May Her playtime cleanse the home. May She keep the treats for Her snack time.

Claude was a friend of mine. Silly of me... I still think I see him sometimes.

Banished the last of the landout demons by having a nice valley thermal flight. Never a shred of doubt about making it back to the _intended_ airport www.weglide.org/flight/1114177

because my brain is full of holes, I frequently look up the original wording when I want to riff on a meme. anyway I need to hurry up and get the fuck off google huh

$5.99 gas, $6.79 diesel, and 2,000+ gallons of F-15 jet fuel per hour 🫡 🦅 🫠

Flew to Ephrata and back today for 4.9 on the Hobbs, where I unexpectedly helped launch almost twenty gliders. Did a photo walk in the downtime but am way too tired to think of "SD Card" even though there's a lot of tetrahedron in there

See how easily our technologies turn on us? The more power you think you have, the more quickly it slips from your hands.

had PCBs made for the first time! took the open source Soyuz numpad design by ai03 and added a Ralphie

congratulations! good job on missing the airport

It's not how I was hoping my flight would end, but I achieved a glider pilot rite of passage yesterday by landing in a cherry orchard's grass strip instead of my home airport. Two bad decisions chasing phantom lift, followed by a good decision to set it down www.weglide.org/flight/1087278

second death in a row of a long-running Caves of Qud character due to stun lock out of nowhere. I'm sure I will learn a lesson from this any day now

one of the sweetest rewards of getting into photo printing is the fast turnaround time from stupid idea to physical object

Ralphie, you alright bud?

Caves of Qud

Ralphie, you alright bud?

Think it will happen?

Tailwheel and spin endorsements both secured on the same flight! Thank you, Citabria. Lots more practice to do before I'd want to show these landings to anyone though...

she is free at last

I'm not naming names, but someone in this picture is now on a total of *four* sedatives/painkillers because she refuses to enjoy a chill, relaxed recovery

@postoctobrist.bsky.social finished your T. Dan Smith episode just now and had to preempt the subsequent podcast to wallow in Instrument of Surrender. amazing work thank you

the biggest tell a project has delegated their documentation to an LLM is that reading it feels like trying to climb a cliff of polished granite. mind uselessly slipping off the words until I just decide to use something else

i think my favourite version of anscombe's quarter is the "data dinosaur" all thirteen of these graphs have the same mean, variance, and correlation when people graph an average value, and nothing else, they're lying to you

how are cats so effortlessly cool

I've always liked the idea of being a tabletop person, but at my pace of approximately one session per decade I've made peace with the fact that it's not really my thing. However. I backed this for the hardcover in an instant, and can't wait to see what Austin and these amazing artists have made.

Completely wiped out after setting some personal records yesterday. Tied my best altitude gain at 5000ft, made my furthest solo excursion from the gliderport, and logged my longest single flight ever at 3.6 hours. www.weglide.org/flight/1021840

TGIF (thank goodness (i)she’s fluffy)

I did it. I am finally free of this damn app

brave bb lynx in tiger stripes

jaws

... and yet she is trusted to nest amidst the lenses

🥺

ok it turns out that a Citabria is in fact a very fun airplane to fly. especially when it's really orange

just an ordinary box of cup noodles

keep thinking of this face

oh hello!

looking very tough, Bridget
