  I found a big puffball in the woods! Except on closer examination it wasn't a puffball, it was a chunk of Styrofoam. Close though.

  Another red and black "knights" image. Here both attack (4,0), (4,1), and (5,0) and their rotations into the other quadrants. The board is 4001 x 4001. #mathematics #recreationalMathematics

  Thank God I have #GNOME System Monitor, without which I would never have figured out the process that's devouring my computer's memory is GNOME System Monitor.

  RE: https://neuromatch.social/@elduvelle/116383168766357783 What a mission! Not just that they went to the Moon and back, which is phenomenal in itself, but just about everything seems to have gone perfectly. Some problems with the toilet and some inconsequential helium leaks, that's it. You can argue with the decisions they make and bemoan the delays but in the end NASA still delivers. #artemis2

  How to find out if it’s raining Without using a rope You use Python, of course, and the National Weather Service API (because of course you're in the US). It's fairly simple. https://richardsholmes.com/doctroid/2026-04-16_how-to-find-out-if-its-raining/ #weather #python

  I put the snow shovels away in the attic. Yeah, I know. I'll probably regret it.

  @Walker@infosec.exchange I haven't watched crewed launches live in 40 years. Can't. Too traumatic.

  They fixed the toilet. No word on whether there was handle jiggling involved or not. #artemis2
