…and I’ve gotten another 3 (or has it been 4?) alerts today, all for the same heat warning that starts at 10am tomorrow, which I’ve know about for several days now since they won’t stop sending these damn things.

And I just noticed that in the official heat warning, under the Urgency heading, it simple says to “take action with next hour.”

Sigh… https://mastodon.social/@rscottjones/112555482238770001

@LoneLocust I think at least one of them came from either the state or county, so who knows. Countless people must be getting these,a nd surely someone involved in the process has their own damn alerts turned on, right? Right?

Pen Pals. Online, in public. I love it. I first ran across this concept on Jerrod Blundy’s HeyDingus blog, but it looks like he was inspired by Jason Becker’s Letters Project. I see that Kev Quirk has joined in too. I’d love to give this a go, perhaps later in the year.

Today’s addition to . https://heydingus.net/penpals

@msquebanh That’s awesome! 30 years is incredible! Have you written more about this anywhere? 👀

I had a few pen pals back in elementary + junior high—and then via Prodigy and other dial-up ISPs back in the day—but never got to met them. 😕

Though I certainly made up for that with social media, where I've met up with 100s of my “online friends" IRL. (I even have a standing goal of meeting one online friend in person each month for the last 7 yrs now: https://rscottjones.com/meet-an-online-friend-each-month/).

@msquebanh Well, if you’re moved to every write about it again, I hope you’ll share!

And I hear you about the covid interruption—it certainly made it much harder for me too (I also had to become an unexpected caregiver for my dad, which probably played an even bigger role). Glad you have made some new local friends, that’s a goal for me this year. In-person friends are important.

@msquebanh That’s really terrible, I’m sorry. My dad recently passed with covid he contracted from his assisted living facility. I pick up his ashes tomorrow. 💔

@FreeTube Hey there, 2024 M3 MacBook Air running 14.5 here.

I downloaded the .dmg and when I ran it, I get this error.

I’ve gotten this excessive heat warning every day for a few days now, all projected for later in the week. Yeah, I get it, but also: it’s Phoenix, we all know it gets hot here. One alert is enough, I don’t need multiple reminders about the same warning.

(Also, I’ll be outside that day 😂)

@donburnside This is my first year turning them on, but I will turn them all off if they don’t stop soon. I wish I could just select which types of alerts I want, or better, which ones I just want to opt out of.
