It's my last day at Slack! It has truly been the best job I've ever had and I'll miss everyone dearly but unfortunately it must end like all good things do - by shoving all this stuff into a cardboard Fedex box and handing it to a teenager at Mail Boxes Etc.

I’ve been traveling through a lot of airports the last few weeks. I propose a new TSA rule - if you can chug half your water bottle in front of them you get to bring the other half on to the plane. I’m not aware of any ingestable bombs.

@pistevo I took a break from dealing with my backyard flooding today to deal with my crawl space flooding.

You can take a save state of a gameboy camera on an analogue pocket and then use that to extract the images on it

“We found this in a box, do you know how to get data off of it?”

“It’s like you don’t even know who you’re talking to.”
