Apropos of nothing this Friday: a reminder to never use Google Scholar for correct citations! They are wrong for everything except arXiv papers! And even then it's dicey! It's a shit product!
If anything, use DOIs and Zotero!
For instance, one way I assume that someone hasn't actually read Ruha Benjamin's Race After Technology, despite citing it, is that the citation is to a Social Forces review of the book, which says the publisher is Wiley, and not Polity.
They aren't wide enough, they aren't safe enough, they aren't good enough. Now that ebikes and electric motorcycles, electric scooters (two, three or four wheels), electric skateboards and monowheels are common, we need something better.
Even on a regular old acoustic bike, if you can hold 30kph you are moving far too fast for the standard, next-to-a-curb bike lane. People just don't think bikes can move that fast. But everything can, now.
Update: I survived, and now have a nice haircut. Also the hairstylist saw with their own eyes how when my hair is shorter than two inches or so it simply wants to stand perpendicularly out from my head. I showed them a picture of a resplendent quetzal to illustrate what it looks like all over.
i just got around to making myself at "home" (by swapping the fn and ctrl, thank goodness I have a Windows box to use <https://superuser.com/a/1608389>)
(yes there's a bluetooth version, but I don't want it because I've often found myself doing things in the BIOS and that requires keypresses before a wireless keyboard can be detected)
@sundogplanets can you get away to a little nearby green space? I think that patch of woods just north of Sid Smith is still there. I found a pseudoscorpion there once.
Well, a while ago I put a bunch of effort into making a minimalist install of Wordpress work with SQLite. Now that's over and I'm looking for an alternative.
OK, team, what blogging software do I want? I'd like a built-in editor, static site generation, generates/manages an RSS feed, doesn't refer to writing or art as "content" and isn't written or run by people who like playing footsies with the worst people in the world.
