I've achieved the level of baldness/receding hairline, where I have two options to avoid burning my pate: wear a hat; or slather on sunblock. 🙄

I need to remember this if I spend a day swimming! 🏊‍♂️

I am currently, de-compiling MIPS binaries for Linux.

Because apparently my life isn't horrible enough. 😩

Can I just say that the Sun Gallant Demi font just hits all of the right nostalgia spots?

Because, oof... I think I'm in love again.

Where do you live and how do you feel about it?

Obviously, don't tell me exactly where you live, no actual addresses please! You can be as vague as you like.

I live in Central Missouri in the U.S.

Pros:

This is an absolutely beautiful place, green rolling hills, lots of rivers, lakes, ponds, and natural springs, cool caves to explore.

Lots of farming here, so great access to quality fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, and dairy.

It's relatively inexpensive to live here compared with other states, because it's a "flyover".

I'm close enough to three major cities, that it's an easy day trip, and I'm about halfway to anywhere in the U.S.

We have one of the best Conservation departments in the U.S. and this is one of the few things that is a bipartisan issue. Lots of awesome nature programs that are free or cheap, state parks, conservation areas, bird watching, hunting, boating, foraging available to everyone.

Cons:

Yeah, it's a big one, it is a RED STATE, while a lot of the cities are blue, there is a large rural population, that votes red. Abortion is not legal here. People often vote against their own self interest.

While I'm not against responsible gun ownership, lots of people aren't responsible, and people have access to guns that definitely should not.

We have very few employee protections here, while the cost of living is relatively low compared with other places, it's taken years to get to a $12 minimum wage, and it's still not enough.

What a beautifully restored locomotive! BTW, the Reading & Northern line runs through Tunkhannock, PA... which is where I shop for groceries. 😀

Horrific. Police in Florida kill Roger Fortson, a U.S. Airman and 23-year-old Black man in his own home. The unidentified officer is on unpaid administrative leave and has not been charged with any crimes yet.

For those losing their heads over today's actions by Judge Cannon, take a deep breath. This was always going to happen. The writing has been on the wall since Judge Cannon was drawn for the case. Getting all worked up about it is only going to make you crazy and desperate. The way we will rid ourselves of this menace is at the polls in November.

For a sober discussion on this topic this exchange today between @Teri_Kanefield and @JonChevreau is highly recommended:
