I have no idea what's going on, but today I woke up with eyes and nose gushing as if to challenge Cardi B to write a sequel to WAP. My eyes are puffy, I'm sneezing like crazy and nose is stuffed.

I suspect allergies, but to WHAT? We still have snow, and nothing has started to sprout yet.

Also: allergy medicine barely helps.

@kazarnowicz har det varit blåsigt och sydliga vindar senaste dagarna? Pollen kan visst åka långt när det är väder.

I need one of those russian flap hats for riding my bike in the winter. The only thing that really gets cold is my ears, even wearing a beanie

@MLE_online the flaps catch wind and flap around, not covering the ears well enough. I have a windproof headband that is great down to well below freezing.

Two words that are common in descriptions of natural scenery are “picturesque” and “scenic”.

Both are weird if you consider etymology, but the first is the weirdest: “What a picturesque view!” in other words is “this view is like a picture of natural beauty!”

There are really interesting implications in this on a metaphysical level.

@kazarnowicz Jag har nog tolkat picturesque som "något värt att avbilda".

Inte samma implikationer med den tolkningen bara =)

@kazarnowicz @Eorlingur vad är planerna för 24 nov? Behöver fixa boende i stan om jag ska ta en bärs :D

@kazarnowicz @gerikson
Jag har inte planerat mer än att vi kan vara hemma hos oss om vi vill eller behöver. Jag har dålig koll på vad som är lämplig lokal annars.

@SwiftOnSecurity are you kidding me, this is why most of us became physicists in the first place!

I reread "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson over the summer. It has a core idea about memetics that is very interesting, and it was much more fun than I remembered. I was only 19 when I read it the first time, and a lot of the satire was lost to my inexperience of the world in general and the US in particular.

It's a great read that still holds up today. I'd love to do a book club discussion around it.

Om du kommer till Stockholm så säg till så läser jag också om den lagom tills dess. Det är nog 10 år sedan jag läste den så jag har den lite färskare i minne, men tar gärna en vända till.

@kazarnowicz @gerikson Måns är stor fan också har det visat sig, det går nog att få ihop ett bra gäng.

@kazarnowicz @gerikson kollade i kalendern och 24e funkar för mig. Jag kollar med resten av gänget nu på fredag.

@kazarnowicz @gerikson resten av gänget är på!

I’ve never purchased an Apple-branded iPhone case, and the only Apple watch bands I have came with my watches.

Eorlingur,
@Eorlingur@mastodon.nu avatar

@agiletortoise I have found it incredibly difficult and frustrating to find good non-Apple cases and bands. You cannot accuse Apple of stifling the competition with their prices though.

The Pro color selection is… not getting a good reaction from Tiff.

@marcoarment Try finding a nice 41 mm sport band. The theme this year is “bland”.

I wish I could by the watch without a band. It feels wasteful to get one that I wont use.
