Here is how I use a corporate sanctioned Windows managed laptop as a perfectly cromulent headless Linux server for sane (?🤔) development workflow, it is, of course, containers all the way down !

This is another fave vid from his channel.
It's when he milked #spiders & made #GuitarStrings from them.

Mad Science isn't all about death rays and trying to take over the world. I mean there are some in the community who go in for that sort of thing, but really? Death rays are a dime a dozen - there is no real challenge to them, and what do they really do to expand our scientific knowledge? Nothing.

Now I know what you are thinking, and yes, some of what some of us do is not morally defensible, and I'm not going to pretend that that sort of thing is something I support. But that is what we have superheros for, right? To deal with those sorts.

The rest of us just want to answer the really hard questions. "Can you stop time?" "Can you travel in time?" "How many licks does it take to get to the centre of various lollypops?" "What if the moon were transparent?" "Is vampirism a disease or genetic?" Those sorts of things.

Why just last week I helped out a fellow who wanted to know about one of those. We only caused a couple of tidal waves, and to be honest, Florida is better off for them. And he got his answer.

So you see? We just want to help people.

I'm sure you've all asked yourselves the question that used to keep me up at nights - "If the moon were transparent, what would an eclipse look like?" - right?

You never asked yourself that question? Why not?

Well, never mind, here is your answer. I commissioned the local mad scientist to create a moon transparenciser and a gravity gun to change the orbit to get a solar eclipse just where we wanted it.

We put it back afterwards, I'm sure no-one noticed. And the transparenciser wore off after a few minutes. But it was enough for me to get this photo.

My Ph.D. advisor also showed me the doorway to hell

I'm late shooting another "Minions at Work" photo cartoon for Pulphouse Fiction Magazine, so I had to build this mad scientist lab this afternoon, and will be shooting tonight. These are some test and behind-the-scenes pictures.

Yesterday I did my best to photograph all our extra Kickstarter campaign medals from old campaigns. I'll be listing those on BackerKit once the current campaign ends in 7 days. Here's one of my favorites!

I see no way that this is, or could go, wrong...

Science isn’t about why, it’s about why not!" – Portal 2. ⚗️ Who needs to explain things when you can just make portals and call it a day? 😆 What’s your fave Portal 2 quote?

- MOUHAHAHA ! Enfin ! Il est fin prêt !
- Professeur ? Tout va bien ?
- OH OUI ! Venez ! Venez voir mon attracteur de fromages ! Un petit levier à pousser et tous les fromages du monde viendrons à nous !
- Vous êtes sur que...
- C'EST PARTI ! Notre bon Roi sera ravi !

Yep, dialing it back. This was the wrong #rabbithole to dive down. It’s #technicaldebt worth retiring and decommissioning, not a specimen for an #experiment in #madscience.
