Mailing lists. That’s what’ll keep me off the BSDs in the end I think. Not the dumb license. Not the terrible file systems (ZFS excepted). Mailing lists. Learn how to use git for gawdsake. It’s only been 20 years.

Dear Internet,
This is NOT an aerial photo of of Pompeii, c.1900, OK? -
#sigh. In the name of efficiency, gutting the requirements that ensure kids actually benefit. What is wrong with these people?

I do not feel recharged by the weekend, even though it was overwhelmingly a good weekend
The good:
+ had a wonderful conversation with a new person at the community garden about science fiction, different knowledges, history and politics
+ excellent homemade pizza last night
+ some cuddles with all the animals
+ roasted cauliflower in preparation for soup (which I didn't make but I can still do that tonight)
+ a band peformance, which went well and it's always great to hang out with my band mates
the less good is that yesterday was far busier than I would have liked, and Dad went to hospital feeling a bit meh on Saturday and ended up declining very rapidly and the team there doesn't really know what is wrong with him. I spoke to the doctor three times yesterday and then went in for a few hours in the late afternoon, and he was sleeping fitfully with some slightly concerning symptoms. I did call them this morning but let's just say the doctor who answered the phone was less than helpful. Perhaps she's just very busy and saving all her energy for the patients. Yes, I'm feeling a bit passive aggressive...

"You are being left behind!"
Does being left behind also include being left alone to just do the stuff I like, without having to worry about unnecessary noise and endless productivity pressure? Because that sounds excellent, we have a deal, please proceed with leaving me behind.

@malanalysis The sad thing is that they’re •not• getting rid of daylight saving time, just the switch. This idea of year-round DST is foolish for two reasons: 1. It was already done back in 1974 (in the US anyway) and was such a disaster it was repealed within a year. 2. DST only exists when there’s a switch. If you make it year-round, you’re just switching to the next time zone over. EDT becomes AST, PDT becomes MST, &c. This creates some confusion (I’m looking at you British Columbia) when they’ve made PDT permanent and are actually on MST but still insisting on calling it Pacific Time. (Yes, this is already happening.) #Sigh. #Rant over for the moment.
