My therapist said I need to find things to keep me busy, so I created the @cdnspace Artemis II dashboard.
I reverse-engineered the Unity Engine powering the NASA AROW visualization and found an absolute treasure trove of data to display.
Little did I expect that it's now being seen by anywhere from 200 to 600 people at any given time with 130,000 people having looked at it in the last 24 hours. People are even building projects around my API.
Yesterday, I received a message on LinkedIn from someone working in Mission Control in Houston... and they're using my dashboard! He even sent me a photo, but I can't share it until after the crew has splashed down.
Mind blown, and an absolute pick-me-up. The best part? It's being served from my basement.
medicineman9Something that you should know....
Pets, it turns out, also have last wishes
before they die, but only known by veterinarians who put old and sick animals
to sleep.
Twitter user Jesse Dietrich asked a vet what was the most difficult part of his job.
The specialist answered without hesitation that it was the hardest for him to see how old or sick animals look for their owners with their eyes before going to sleep.
The fact is that 90% of owners don't want to be in a room with a dying animal. People leave so that they don't see their pet leave. But they don't realize that it's in these last moments of life that their pet needs them most.
Veterinarians ask the owners to be close to the animals until the very end.
"It's a fact that they will probably
die before you.
Don't forget that you were
the center of their life.
They are a part your family.
No matter how hard it is, don't leave them."
Don't let them die in a room with a stranger
in a place they dont like.
It is very painful for veterinarians to see how pets cannot find their owner during the last minutes of their life.
They don't understand why the owner left them. They needed their owner's consolation.
Veterinarians do everything possible to ensure that animals are not so scared, but they are completely strangers to them.
Don't be a coward because it's too painful
for you.
Think about your pet.
Endure this pain for their sake.
Be with them until the end. ❤

BrianMy dentist decided to change their cancellation policy basically making it very costly for a cancellation within 48 hours. I said I have a problem with this policy. They saw me and made my next appointment. I did not sign or agree to the new policy. This is the way it should be.
I hate the trend towards these policies as it is totally one sided. In this case my dentist cancelled on me same day last time I had an appointment . If you are going to make it costly for me to cancel you should pay me when you cancel.

Nicklas Johnson 🏳️🌈Encountered the weirdest damned Windows 11 bug this week and just happened to stumble upon a blog post in which someone posted the solution, which I will now amplify here:
If all your pinned taskbar icons are broken/blank/generic icons instead of the proper app icons except when the application is running, check your desktop (and possibly inside folders on your desktop) for any executable files. (Shortcuts are fine, just no executable files themselves.)
Delete them or move them somewhere else, and then restart Windows Explorer from the Task Manager. Like magic, mine icons came right back.
No idea how this stupid bug could possibly exist, but there it is. For some reason I had a Firefox executable on my desktop, and it was the culprit for why I had no icons on my taskbar.

"Protect VPN use in the UK" https://action.openrightsgroup.org/tell-government-protect-vpn-use-uk
Tell the Government: Protect VPN use in the UK
Take action! Protect VPN use in the UK VPNs help people to stay private and safe online. Young people use them to avoid harassment, or protect location data. Companies use them to make sure remote log-in to their networks are secure. Journalists, campaigners and whistle blowers use them to protect their work and themselves. But the Government wants to force people to verify their age when they buy a VPN. This will deter people from using VPNs to stay safe and secure online. Why are the government proposing restrictions to accessing VPNs?
