Well, winter has arrived in #Winnipeg. It was an awfully snowy walk home from work tonight! Kind of nice to get a coating of snow, in a weird way.

Ethan J. A. SchoonoverIt's a good think Musk knows about rockets. This will allow him to have a solid understanding of the ballistic trajectory of his personal brand.
weatherinthepegThe Province of Manitoba has closed Highway 1 (the Trans-Canada) from Falcon Lake to the Ontario border as well as Highway 12 from the U.S. border north to Steinbach. Expect to see deteriorating travel conditions on area highways, particularly south and east of Winnipeg, through the evening. #MBstorm
After a prolonged trek northwards from the US border, the snow is finally beginning to push west-northwest into #winnipeg. Could see periods of fairly heavy snow through the evening hours before it starts to taper off overnight.
Areas of yellow on the imagery are bands of heavier snow while the blues are light to moderate snow. #MBstorm
A little while ago I decided to head back to the first #boardgame I bought back in 2018 and spent an evening playing Fallout: The Board Game (with the New California and Atomic Bonds expansions).
In addition to being a bit of a warm blanket game (it kickstarted a hobby that was huge for my mental health through the beginning of the pandemic), the expansions brought it to a place where it's a solidly good and fun game that nails the #Fallout theme to a tee.

After a long hiatus, I finally got #cloudspire by Chip Theory Games back to the table last night. Started the solo for the Horizon’s Wrath expansion faction. Failed once pretty quickly, but the second go I got a handle on how to use the Swabbies and did much better. I also really enjoy how much more dynamic this faction is; Lifeboats allow you to be far more aggressive with your heroes and then pull them back to your fortress to heal. Looking forward to scenario 2! #boardgames
Mark DennehyIt never fails to surprise me how many people are like "I'm a software engineer, I work all day with embedded systems and C and compilers and R and high level analysis of big data and statistical reporting on metadata trends.... and also I do #woodworking using 18th century hand tools because fecking computers, y'know?"
Literally, walk into a room with ten engineers, and three of them can probably cut a decent dovetail if they don't dream of building an entire dresser from cherry and walnut.
