No crashes in the first 3 laps. Shocking.

People complained that sprints were too boring. This was many things, but not boring.

yes, they were an advertising monster.

He probably wants to get there faster than driving the car.

I agree. I was hoping that Google would make DoubleClick less evil, but instead, they became DoubleClick.

The have (and will again) pass them just for Law enforcement, judges and elected officials. The rest of us will continue to have no protection, because it’s good for business.

Those are good questions that I should have ready answers for, but don’t.
We don’t have the schedule finished yet, but I’ll do an opening talk, there will be talks on self-hosting, the Fediverse, and probably one on installing Linux on recycled hardware. We’ll have a lunch break with a musical guest (Jason Didner) and we’ll be giving some stuff away.

I’m happy to answer questions if anyone has any, hopefully we’ll see people form the area there.

If you’re at all interested, pick up a virtual ticket, or a full ticket and come out. They need your support!

I’ve had this 26er since 1996. Still rolling.

It’s amazing that there are spots on the track where there is no guardrail at all. One wrong move, and they’re in the bay. People standing on the sidewalk.

Yeah, I’ll probably have to use them for people with no other way to contribute, but I don’t have to have an account with so much personal information attached. Deleted it yesterday.

Three formation laps? Madness!

On an unrelated note: There is a donate link, and I’d like to donate, with paypal one last time before closing my PP account. But the link is broken. If it can be fixed, I’ll drop some money in the pot for future expenses.

Something dopey like “Sonny is back as team principal, and has to jump in for the finale to win the constructor’s” or something like that?

These same drivers also do not use turn signals, and don’t stop for stop signs. They will not follow the rules of the road, and scream at cyclists for doing the same. Even if you do signal, a lot of drivers don’t know what they mean anyway. (As stated in the article)

I’ve had people wave at me, as in to say hello when I’m giving hand signals.

Early voting means I was done days ago.

You know, back in the day, normies used DOS, Windows 3.1, and various Apple machines. (None of these were seamless) You’d be surprised now much non-enthusiasts can do when motivated. They did break stuff, but they tried to use it all.

I plug my steamdeck into a USB dock, (for ethernet, video , etc) which has the Model M with a USB adapter.

Find an old IBM model M at a garage sale, or craigslist. Use it until the end of time.
