@Caiotekit Sounds wonderful! Hope you enjoy making recipes to use these.

@Caiotekit Looks like a nice setup! Did you have some good finds?
I finally overcame my latest autistic inertia. Over a week ago, I printed the agendas and supporting documents for doctors I'll be seeing this week. They've been sitting in the paper output tray ever since.
It only took 5 minutes, and I was sure that was all it was going to take, but I just *could not* initiate the collation process to finish it up until just now...mere hours before they are needed.

@georgetakei I need a renewed passport updated with my new name, but I'm certainly going to wait until the administration changes. I don't want his visage on my identification.

@ianvisits I'm from the USA, but I watch a lot of UK films and TV shows. It seems that pub visiting is a major pastime and social mixer!
In the TV show Hope Street, I was very surprised that the police staff regularly go to the neighborhood pub after a working day.

@GinaT86 Could it still be developing its root system?

@joshsusser This is a great discussion on those parallels. Thanks for sharing it.

@ben Cool. After the CoCo's, I transferred to the "dark side" (IBM compatibles) and made my career in them. Only when that ended did I flip to the Apple ecosystem, and haven't been happier from a technology perspective.

@ben I had a CoCo 2 and then upgraded to a CoCo 3. I learned assembly language on the 6809E, and also learned to program the speech synthesizer cartridge (which was really cool, learning how to leverage phonemes!).
That's really neat you worked at a Radio Shack. That was my major hangout place as a kid.
@ben I was a Tandy CoCo kid, and thought the Amiga was the coolest thing ever! I never had one, sadly, but watched from the sidelines at its incredible capabilities.

@Doubleaa It was worth the wait! 😻

@adhd_coffee An an AuDHDer, I often look at my watch for the time or the date and then have to check it again a moment later, unsure if I looked at the time or not.

@dillyd This is a very clever idea, inserting yourself into the flower arrangement! Beautiful result, Dilly. ❣️

@johnnyd_cm How about "I opened a jar of instant coffee, but it was just dust in the wind."?
Replying to @captainvellalives@lgbtqia.space
@captainvellalives LOL! Exactly.

@captainvellalives I hope Steam doesn't go all "HAL" and lock you out from opening the pod doors. 😀
Replying to @MonotoneofBill@mastodon.world
@MonotoneofBill Ah, this brings back memories!
I don't hear this aspect of data centers mentioned much. Isn't 1C considered a tipping point for irreversible climate change?

The Colorado SunDo data centers make nearby neighborhoods hotter?Yes. Data centers can raise the temperature of nearby neighborhoods by 1-2 degrees on average, research shows.
