It’s because we can vote by mail now. Biden was the only one on the ballot in my city, no down ballot positions at all. I voted since I just had to drop it in the mail, but I wouldn’t make a trip out in February to vote for someone running pretty much unopposed.
I love horror movies especially the cheesey type of horror movies that are so stupid that they are great. I do prefer the ones that would always appear on SyFy, but any other type (that is not like the ones on SyFy and look a lot better) is fine too.
Centrist Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) is circulating a proposal to reestablish the Senate’s dress code, which Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) loosened over the weekend to allow senators to wear whatever they want on the Senate floor, according to senators familiar with the proposal....

Alan Francisco Rangel of the Sinaloa Red Cross told CNN that paramedics treated the pilot at the crash site in San Pedro, Navolato and then took him to a local hospital, where he died.
After a software update, VS2022 stopped working correctly. When I hit a break point, I don't get any local variables and their values, instead I get a "wait..." label that looks like a button, and also VS is growing in memory size until it crashes my Windows, or I either stop the debugging or VS itself....

Trader Joe’s has recalled its frozen falafel for potentially having rocks in it, after it recalled two of its cookie products for the same reason recently.
I’ve been seeing a lot of Perl jokes lately and as far as legacy code I haven’t had to edit anything written in that in 25 or so years.

Copied basic code out of computer magazines, read a DOS 3.1 book cover to cover in the 80s as a kid. Just always drawn to it. Today I wrote some bicep code to allow my dev team to access the key vault in the lower environments but not the upper.
