Just me on the intertubes. It's clear I don't speak for any organization, group, or company. No one would trust me to do that.

Just used @SkyfiApp for the first time. Amazing. Simply amazing. It's like magic. And customer service is top notch! There were some artifacts in my first image and SkyFi proactively reached out to confirm if the image was usable. So impressed.

@jacib I strongly suspect that most people in set 1 are actually in set 2… 🧐

(But are generally good at a lot of other baked goods because of those two excellent items.)

[Will Voorhees @will2041]

@lukemckay You absolutely can!

I’d also recommend Woodworking for Mere Mortals as a gateway! https://t.co/qbdrFeFzo4

Something interesting you might not have realized: a number of words in English are nouns when you stress the first syllable but verbs when you stress the second.

"Your CONduct is better when you conDUCT yourself appropriately.”

OK, the @mspairport baggage claim playing a loon song before it starts is objectively hilarious.

Have you heard of this musician Carol? She is always on the radio/streaming this time of year, works across nearly every genre, and despite her name, is versed in a number of instruments.

Check her out sometime: Carol of the Bells

You know how sometimes there's a phrase that's just hilarious in the moment but makes no sense to anyone that wasn't there?

"Chaster Bief" ... while playing Halo... in reference to Master Chief. Where'd the "b" come from? Nobody knows...

I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?"

As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

[Will Voorhees @will2041]

This was pretty dang funny to me. Couldn’t load the thread about Twitter system problems.

I dropped our @Vitamix blender carafe on an old Cuisinart sandwich press, and IT BROKE A PIECE OFF THE SANDWICH PRESS. What a tank of a blender…

@kendallmorgan Minnesota bound!

You move out of a house and discover things you didn’t find for years…

[Will Voorhees @will2041]

@Chronemic Oh we would have been hosed. At least I knew where the house shutoff valve was! 🤣

@Chronemic Revolutions is from 2003! Go see it. 🤣

[Will Voorhees @will2041]

The conversation in Matrix Revolutions between Neo and Rama Kandra on the nature of love could be seen as commentary on love in different cultures.

“No, [love] is a word. What matters is the connection the word implies.”

[Will Voorhees @will2041]

I could see this being extended to actions. We may show love differently, but the connection is still the same.

Took us a decade living out here, but we finally got to the Pacific.

@PortofSeattle Does the SeaTac rental car facility allow long term (1 week) parking?
