Pff.. I just got cut off on my bike by this triple A hole with his massive window blinded SUV on the bike lane while he was holding his phone making a call
I was signing and yelling he should put his phone down and open his eyes, didn't take much of his car would have enjoyed the frame of my bike
Seemed like a "though businessman" or perhaps even a diplomat with foreign licence who did like he "owned the place" but not when I'm around
I don't care for your status, act like a human or ...
For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.
From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."
Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.
Classic NYT Maggie Haberman finger on the scale masgerading as straight news:
"The prosecutors’ proposed instructions, among other things, ask the judge to give the jury what legal experts said was unusual flexibility in determining whether Mr. Trump had a role in the creation of the false records at the center of the charges."
What "legal experts"?
This is NY law. How is it "unusual" to advise juries about the law?
Southern Florida once again has "EXTREME" Heat Risk today 5/18/24.
Extreme - This level of rare and/or long-duration extreme heat with little to no overnight relief affects anyone without effective cooling and/or adequate hydration. Impacts likely in most health systems, heat-sensitive industries and infrastructure.
@amyedge@ai6yr Unlike Texas, Florida has ties in/out with the rest of the nation’s power grids, so so long as the whole country ain’t tapped out, they’ll be ok.
@ai6yr I am STUNNED our network operations team hasn’t said they’re shutting down our Houston office’s local cluster…..One Shell Plaza must still have power and internet?
In today's bee drama, there are two separate group of bees attempting to claim an empty box we set up to capture any new swarms here. Their advance parties spent several hours playing "King of the Hill" (err..
Queen of the Hill) and wrestling each other out of the box. Too cold for a swarm to fly in, but not too cold to have a bee battle! #beekeeping
Happy Guilted Into Buy Flowers-And-Chocolate Day, And Maybe Stand In An Endless Line For A Horribly Crowded Brunch Day for those that celebrate!
(hint: if you truly want to celebrate your mother, do what we always did for my mom, and do the buffet the week BEFORE or the week AFTER, when the buffet is better and you don't have crowds; I also used to go to the chocolate/flower stores the DAY AFTER and had gotten flowers for 90% off and chocolates for 50-75% off... 😉
@ai6yr Steak dinner comin’ up next weekend. As for this morning, we have a brand-new “not just good, but legit freaking great” #bagel shop that just opened around the corner from us in far north Dallas. Yeah, you read that right — New York bagels in #Dallas (n.b.: it ain’t the water, it’s the recipe & the technique). We bought Mom an everything bagel, and an olive cream cheese schmear which we haven’t been able to find locally here in a decade. Happy wife, happy life! 🥰
@ai6yr For those interested: Starship Bagel, Hillcrest Village shopping center at Hillcrest & Arapaho. They just opened last week and I expect lines out the door by mid-week this week once word gets around.
@ai6yr Very good BBQ, Tex-Mex, pan-Asian, Indian, French, continental Italian, and more. We’re not quite the same level of “foodiness” as Chicago or Philly, but we ain’t bad either. Just NY/Philly working-class Italian-style deli and bagels — and Chinese — have tended to be weak or nonexistent here.
