[ Ekevitante Nubojn ]

Gajni iujn, perdi iujn. Bonŝance, plejparte de la nuboj hodiaŭ estas kaj malgrandaj, kaj maldika, kaj ŝvelaj, kaj sufiĉe rapide moviĝantaj.

I loathe Facebook and would leave it if I didn't have to be on it for work. In the short amount of time I spend there, though, I have managed to become a top fan of the Indigo Girls. ❤️ #SilverLining #ThatTracks

The hopeful silver lining to a bad blackfly season in Nova Scotia
As temperatures have warmed up around the province, many Nova Scotians are seeing a lot more blackflies than in previous years, but there might be a silver lining to the sightings.

About the only good thing about #rampocalypse is that people suddenly remembered that neither memory nor storage comes for free. I again see people pushing for software with lower memory usage. Which is unusual when for the past 3 decades people basically argued that 6 months down the road a hardware upgrade will solve all memory and storage problems.

@DanielPMeltzer LOL! I took one (or more) for the team.

Also, I’ll spare you the part about the French Quarter.

@justinmikulka.bsky.social the ultimate legacy of this heinous #trumpadministration may be that it ends up not only destroying what we now call the #usa but also the #fossilfuel industry, two thing he keeps claiming to love most dearly. Oh Well, "no one" told the US electorate that everything that trump touches dies, so how could they possibly know. #silverlining #renewableenergy
