i’m just joking — my favorite bit about metro california (north and south) is the food.
i was born and spent much of my childhood in san diego (though i’m mostly from santa cruz) — even though i live in austin now — (at least for a bit more)

Every time I read "Lunar Lander", I get this in my head.
The 80's really did have an effect on me.
Finally doing some design at home.
I'm revisiting the Joystick handle to optimize it for 3D printing, rather than machining, as I spent months doing in the past (fuck, XD)
On the outside there doesn't seem to be much change, but there's a LOT of difference.
Previously I was going to use 20mm aluminium stock, so removing, or leaving, material was a non issue. Switching to additive means I want to either add as little material as possible, or at least NOT need supports.
@PatrickHerd Yeah, I'm just now finding out about the loose fibers thing in the ones that have simply fivers mixed in them. The one that is only core should be a lot more safe.
Oh well.

#PPOD: Blue Ghost got her first diamond ring! The photo, taken at their landing site in the Moon’s Mare Crisium around 3:30 a.m. CDT on 14 March 2025, shows the Sun about to emerge from totality behind Earth. This marks the first time in history that a commercial company was actively operating on the Moon and able to observe a total solar #eclipse. This phenomenon occurred simultaneously with the lunar eclipse we witnessed on Earth. Credit: Firefly Aerospace
Every 7th night, they come in droves. Suddenly fast and aware of my hideouts. They'll smash through wooden doors in seconds and claw their way through stone walls and steel bars.
I survived once by climbing on a roof and sniping them from above and through a hole in the roof when they got in, but they almost collapsed the walls to bring me down.
Now I've built a castle. Workshops, vulture tower and killing tunnel with dart traps. Tonight they come.
#Zombies #7DaysToDie #Survival #Game #Gaming
The tunnel worked. Alas, I got overrun by zombies climbing on top of each other until they reached me on the roof. Then I hid at the safe end of the tunnel, shotgunning any in the face that made it past the traps. This worked until they smashed in the backdoor (and wall) and got me from behind. Close though!
Finally unlocked the crucible to make steel (with lots of mining). Stronger doors and more concrete walls. And I made the tunnel wider so I could install whirling blade traps.
„And I made the tunnel wider so I could install whirling blade traps.“
I have a feeling we’re all going to be saying this a lot more in the future.

Look at all the sh*t Free Speech hating Elon is doing with DOGE and laugh about this hypocrisy.
With no audit, no thought, and no accountability, Elon Musk is just taking an axe to jobs and services.
But when the same ideological, reckless behaviour is aimed at him, it's suddenly a problem.

Here is the alt-text description for the image:
The image is a four-panel cartoon making a joke about simulation theory. In the first panel, two men are at a kitchen counter with fast food. The man on the left is saying "All I'm saying is that we could be living in one big simulation!" In the second panel, the same two men are at the kitchen counter with fast food and the man on the left is saying "This is all just some crazy video game!" and the man on the right is saying "We're not in a video game. I can prove it." In the third panel, the same two men are standing at a doorway and the man on the right is pointing and saying "Just right down here." In the fourth panel, the same two men are standing in a room with a large pile of corpses. The man on the right is saying "See? Here's a giant pile of dead bodies without any clipping or frame drops." The man on the left is saying "Oh yeah!"

On Thurs night, the #KennedyCenter concert hall was awash in…howling, passionate booing. It started w/1 or 2 boos & caught on fast, roaring from the rows. I’ve never heard anything quite like it—let alone before a note was played.
The cause of the nearly sold-out house’s audible outrage was the emergence onto the box tier of VP #JDVance, 2nd lady (& newly appointed Kennedy Center board member) #UshaVance…, nearly a half-hour after the concert was scheduled to begin.
14 March 1893 | A German Jewish woman, Grete Marx Emmel, was born in Warburg.
In October 1940 she was imprisoned in the internment camp in Gurs. In September 1942 she was deported from Drancy to #Auschwitz. She did not survive.

It would hardly be notable to make the acquaintance of a Greek Buddhist today. Despite having originated in Asia, that religion — or philosophy, or way of life, or whatever you prefer to call it — now has adherents all over the world.Colin Marshall (Openculture.com)

“We are exploring options to expand our manufacturing capabilities.”…Eric Berger (Ars Technica)
I can't keep up with all these people, but going Texas...? Does that suggest a MAGA move.
Are they in that sense similar to the neo-military-industrial startups like Anduril and Palantir, funded by far-right accelerationist types?
And a totally unrelated observation: California for some reason apart, it seems like the pro-authoritarian populace tends to be generally found in the 'hot and bothersome' regions while the more level-headed and cooperative peoples don't mind the cold all that much... (Northern European here)

A digital drawing shows a pale-skinned figure with long, blonde hair, a white shirt with gold buttons, dark pants with a laced front, and a fencing sword. The figure is seated with one leg crossed over the other and is holding the sword in their right hand. A gold circle is behind the figure, and the background is a dark color.
