Does anyone remember a streaming radio station called "Signal Decay" from Live365 back in the early-to-mid-2000s? Played a lot of EBM, synthpop, futurepop. Every now and then I go looking for any details on it, but seems like bitrot ate everything

I have a Leatherman tool. I didn't realize there's an actual real "Tim Leatherman" behind it. I guess I just thought it was, like, a tool for uh leather men? https://www.powells.com/book/the-leatherman-book-9798217298921

Saw someone blog that they really dislike grab-bag or "weeknotes" style blog posts, which kinda makes me want to throw together a public feed aggregator just for weeknotes posts from folks :thinkspin:

A thing I&#39;m working at work got posted to Product Hunt. Now my inbox is filling up with emails with subject line &quot;Quick thought on {product name}&quot; from randos - and usually the quick thought is &quot;have you thought about using my product?&quot; :blobsweats:

So this weekend, I dug a big hole. Then I put some rubber in the hole. Then I put some water in the rubber. Then I put a fountain in the water. Today, everything hurts very much #gardening

I feel so spoiled by this NASA livestream that I&#39;m vaguely perturbed that no one in any of the aerial assets hasn&#39;t pointed a streaming gopro at the ship on reentry :blobsweats: #artemis2 #nasa #space
