I live near #Boston, #Massachusetts, USA, with my partner and an elderly #cat. I've worked in tech, mostly as a #Linux sysadmin, for nearly 30 years. I spend a lot of time #cycling and fiddling with #filmphotography. Sometimes I do a spot of #cooking.

This 1961 photo is called “The Mob”, and was shot by professional cat photographer Walter Chandoha. Originally a WW II combat photographer, his signature style was filming cats at their eye level. He collected nearly 100,000 cat photographs and it’s pretty cool that someone made a career out of this.

@cstross Given those choices, I think we should hear this Dracula fellow out.
@szakib Given how frequently I'm nearly murdered by Grubhub or Uber Eats drivers (and it is *so* much worse in winter), I'm willing to give the bots a chance.

@esvrld I'd love to see an episode of Shark Tank where you pitch this.
Just got my new Covid shot. Obviously, it has not given me 5G powers; that’s sheer nonsense. But I do seem to have acquired the ability to sense WiFi hotspots.

From The Boston Globe - When building bike lanes isn’t enough

"But now is also the time to press for new and innovative approaches to encouraging, cajoling, and incentivizing more people to try the bike. This is a task that the city can lead but should not have to do on its own."

@mattb They're special edition jerseys with stripes in the colors of the Giro, Tour and Vuelta GC jerseys across the torso. And unsurprisingly you can pre-order them now from the Jumbo-Visma website.
