Just got invited to an impromptu 7-mile hike up into the Cascades. Hmm, should I go? Yeah, why not!
So many threats to FOSS these days. Time to set up a private mirror. I'll be damned if I get sucked into corporate computing.
Have a constipated dog? Evidence suggests my front lawn is a cure for that.
