It's homophobic that intercity travel is always time-consuming or expensive or both. Just let me fast-travel for cheap dammit (give me high-speed trains!)

A federal judge has permanently blocked Georgia from enforcing a state law that banned hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for transgender people in state prisons, ruling the policy unconstitutional.

I went to Chicago's Union Station today and I SAW THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS TREE EVER 😍😍🧡🤍🚂🇺🇸🎄

@techconnectify.bsky.social You may have seen this already, but it looks like tru-tone is getting ready to come out with a mini-light product. They have a mention of it at tru-tone.com/pages/new and it looks like they've sent some people preproduction sets recently youtu.be/gWZUu8jjI2Q

Okay, the NCAA needs to step in and stop football coaches from jumping ship from their programs right before bowl games. It's fucking disgusting that so many don't even have the common decency to coach one last game with kids they, in many cases, chose the school SPECIFICALLY to play under them.

are you an EE (eepy engineer), ME (meowing engineer), or RF (really feral) engineer?

at this rate both of my keyboards are gonna be model f

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

I feel called out

eschewing simple hobbies like "mechanical keyboards" and moving straight onto building my own pipe organ that's right: i'm pulling out all the stops

Crazy aura farming to go to a meeting about how your invention is impossible with a working version of your invention

no one has ever spoken like this about a GoA4 (grade-of-automation four, or no staff on-board and completely automatic) driverless metro

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

@free.law do y'all know of any kind of project like RECAP to which I could contribute court documents not from PACER (such as state court fillings) if I purchase them?

@roxiwheels.bsky.social I thought I remembered a video where you drove a friend's hearse, but I went looking for it just now and couldn't find it. Did it get deleted or something, or am I blind/crazy?

@markcooperjones.bsky.social @jayforeman.bsky.social I have received your book as a birthday present and have been thoroughly enjoying it so far. I was somewhat disappointed by the lack of a colophon, but the authorship joke on the copyright page definitely makes up for it :3

happy daylight spendings

every IKEA product must have exactly one infuriating flaw which would have been totally avoidable if it only cost an extra $20, meanwhile the closest analog from a competitor is double the price

These are the cards we have in our definity. As far as we can tell, the IPSI card does the control, and it would have talked to an install of Avaya Aura Communication Manager. if anyone knows where to get a copy please let us know.

baseball is the best sport because a game can go on forever. it defies every convention of broadcast television as well as "respecting the time of those in attendance" nah man baseball is something that HAPPENS TO YOU. this is the essence of life. this is what it's all about.

Me

Not sure the folks at NBC/Peacock thought this one through

baseball is a very sacred sport to transgenders

Does it still have to be useless even if it's whimsical and keeps me very occupied? Because if not then I would spend it inventing and manufacturing improved candlepin and duckpin bowling pinsetters, opening an elaborately-themed bowling alley to use them in, and operating it at a loss

I just thought of (what I hope is) an interesting baseball rules question: If a player/manager is ejected, and then later the game has to be suspended and resumed on another day, are they still ejected when the game resumes or can they come back?

What a baseball game lol

For anyone wondering tonight about the longest MLB games:

I am very amused that BART, BARTA, MART, and MARTA all exist as US public transit agencies lol

Still thinking about the first pitch at the Dodgers game yesterday where Shohei Ohtani’s dog Decoy delivered the baseball to him. 😍 (There was a bobblehead giveaway of a bobblehead featuring Ohtani AND Decoy. 😍)

@64streetcar.bsky.social Random question but how do you do your research on different cities' trolley/bus/trolleybus line history? I've looked into this sort of thing for Atlanta a little bit before but info seems sparse, so I was wondering if you had any particular strategies you use

Charles Nelson Riley isn't wearing any socks

I still think a transparent canopy at Five Points is a bad idea. It's going to turn the station into a greenhouse

marta is yet again single-tracking and short-turning its entire system while Bobby Dodd Stadium, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and State Farm Arena have events, according to data gathered by @thexylom.com. Hundreds of thousands are on the streets of Atlanta, with a train that runs every 20 minutes.

MEOW it's Sneptember! Telegram stickers for @artiemog.bsky.social! 🐱💜

holy shit I can't believe I haven't bragged on here yet about this incredible fucking lamp my husband found on the internet

the results so far on congestion pricing in new york have been so outrageously good that opposition to it works as a convenient identifier of unserious buffoons www.reuters.com/world/us/new...

Atlanta, Georgia is in the Eastern time zone. Please check a monitor for the current local time.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
