Hey @ARISS_status, any chance an ISS SSTV event is scheduled for the holiday season this year? I’m thinking there might be other pressing topics getting in the way this year.
Glad to join the ranks of us that vaguely post photos of “their trailer”. Bar was set high. Glad to be here. Hope to be back. instagram.com/p/CljsWegy8Yz/…
Hey Twitter. Been a moment… just surfacing to say that there’s a donation train starting for the holidays over in r/calgary for charities in #yyc
I’ll be donating $100 to the third picked charity plus $10 for every redditor that joins in matching. reddit.com/r/Calgary/comment…
I feel way more giddy than I probably should about these boxes. instagram.com/p/CRIDyYhBX-F/…
I always thought that the people who went for runs at Burning Man were a little extra.
Next time we all get to BRC, I might as well be extra also.

Love @nsnwca’s Alberta Power Site for three reasons:
1) You should know where your electricity comes from.
2) I’ve been playing with Grafana quite a bit lately and this is inspiring some ideas.
3) You should know where your electricity comes from.

Where do I send requests for a new german word or check for its existence?
Looking for "The wash of emotions you get opening up a messaging application to a specific contact and realizing you haven't messaged someone you felt close to in, ah I don't know, five years or more"
The reason I don’t know anything about Harry Potter or Houses is because of the same reason I had to get AstraZeneca.
It’s because I turn 40 this year.
God damn it… does that mean that House AstraZeneca is like Hufflepuff?
I don’t know what any of the houses are honestly. I never read any of the books or watched the movies. You all just talk about them lots. Slytherin is cool but I’m probably a ravenclaw in real life maybe?
It’s a weird time to be doing many things. Maybe it’s weird enough to be doing live theatre/film in Calgary again. But we’ll need you…

To end the week, discovered that I could bounce all client traffic in NYC whenever I wrote or read from the flash on a Cisco 4948. CPU would hit 100, BGP would drop, TenGig ports would loose link. And all I had to do was “dir” to recreate the issue.
Fun.
A warning, as people are starting or have started their Holiday celebrations and drinking...
Apparently this exists. Read your labels kids.

Imagine being so bad at your job overseeing all the doctors in a Province you need to issue a press release when one moves in while constantly declaring none are leaving. They are not doing a good job.

I’m pretty sure they are going to say that this entire announcement was 3D rendered on an M1, right? Something about screen space objects not casting reflections/shadows/rays onto the humans and vice versa is the giveaway I think.
