Just trying to spread the good word about IPv6. Member of an obscure technical group on the internet. Still remember when it was all the ARPANET. DNS/DNSSEC.

Love pretty much any musical instrument with strings and frets (and a few with just strings). Play/build/repair as many of them as I can.

i do screen followers. if you are brand new, don't have any useful bio, or posts, generic avatar, etc. i will probably deny your request.

anika is quite talented. was pleased to see that she got this gig.

@ai6yr

LOL.

probably meant a dagger designed to go in your sleeve, not the needle version. :)

though one never knows. hamlet was kind of a whiny bugger.

@jakebrake @ai6yr

that's what happens when you don't secure your armory. folks sneak in and leave accordions, missiles, my little pony backpacks. he's lucky no one left a banjo.

"check your car. too hot for your dog? hot enough to misfire that missile..."

Newly arrived on the fediverse and wondering the difference between here and X?
Ask what the plural is of octopus.

On X this will result in a vicious argument whether it is octopuses or octopi.

Here there will be polite discussion on when one should use octopuses and when octopodes, followed by a discursion about classical Greek plurals.

Die englische Sprache kennt ja “Verschlimmbessern” nicht, weshalb sie stattdessen “vibe coding” sagt.

we were just one trip away from TSA adding "javelin missiles" to the list of things you're not allowed to carry on...

The Donald Trump - JD Vance administration has sentenced Middletown, Ohio
— Vance's hometown
— to decades of environmental devastation
by canceling a $500 million federal grant that would have transformed a major steel plant into the world's cleanest industrial facility.

Instead, Cleveland-Cliffs is now planning to reline its aging blast furnace with coal and coke,
locking the region into at least 15 to 18 more years of toxic pollution and the health consequences that come with it.

The facility is already the 11th worst carbon monoxide emitter in the United States, according to EPA data from 2020.

The Biden administration had attempted to modernize the facility.

The $500 million grant would have replaced the coke-burning infrastructure with a hydrogen-powered furnace that,
according to some analyses,
would have made Middletown the lowest greenhouse gas-emitting steel plant in the world.

Instead, Trump and Vance have prioritized fossil fuels over clean energy and human health in the vice president's own backyard.

Local residents are already suffering.

Vivian Adams, who moved to Middletown from Louisville just four years ago, has watched her six-year-old daughter's health collapse.

"My daughter was born prematurely so she already had lung issues, but it's gotten worse.

She stays sick and coughing and can't breathe.

She's had to go on everyday medication for her asthma, plus she has a rescue inhaler," Adams said.

The environmental contamination is inescapable.

"The smell some days is absolutely awful,"
Adams said.

"We sit on our chairs and there's a bunch of black stuff on them, on our vehicle, it's soot.

It's on their toys, so you can't leave them outside."

there is a theory that spicy foods open up more areas of the tongue so that you get even more flavors and subtleties.

there is the alternate theory that you burn off the top layer of taste buds, so the ones below are more sensitive.
