A reminder to all creative people:
If the RIAA's recent actions have reminded us of anything, it's that you cannot guarantee you have a copy of any of your work unless you have backups of it on your own system.
The 'cloud' is someone else's computer, and there is ample evidence that the someone else who owns that computer does not care at all about the hours of passion you've poured into things you make.
Act accordingly.
The scone recipe was so good it went into my permanent cookbook

One respite for me during that pandemic has been honing my cooking skills. Today's brunch: quiche with spiced goat cheese, pastrami, sausage, onion; orange scented scones; pears and oranges with fresh whipped cream; Leelanau blueberry coffee.
I've also finally got a good grasp of the French mother sauces and have moved on to asian sauces.

Has anyone yet or found a guide to rooting an Oculus Go? Talk about quickly degrading experience and performance. No worlds load in AltspaceVR anymore.
I think on election day I'm going to turn off the wireless router and cell phone and just knit, do watercolors and music in the hope it represents something better beginning.

YOW!! I just learned the SubGenius movie is finally coming out... October 16 in "virtual theaters" (whatever that means) and October 20, View on Demand. I don't know WHERE exactly, yet, but here's the link that director Sandy Boone sent out today: https://movieweb.com/jr-bob-dobbs-church-of-the-subgenius-trailer
This probably means we contributors can get our DVD copies soon!

"people have been abused via thermostats and smart lights.... but please, buy our flying internet camera."
And no matter how you shield it, anything causing an air influx strong enough to propel itself will be able to yank long hair into it. *fans* these days regardless of safeguards still yank on hair.
seems like one of the dumbest ideas I've ever heard
lol.
Ok, cool. That makes the decision easy - my facebook goes away at the end of the year. A picture of a dog with part of it's face shot off and two instances of that video of the guy recently blowing his head off is quite enough, thanks. Even with only 10 friends, mostly family, that shit comes up. I'm done.
Palate cleanser in case you need it:
I think I've already had it with blogger. If you're logged in under two different browsers, it freaks out.
FYI and note to self: If you're upgrading your syncthing instance across a large version number (ex: 1.3.3 to 1.9.0) be prepared for the internal database upgrade to take awhile. Like upwards of 10 minutes, so don't freak out that it crashed.
