Pro tip: if you create a @Twitter@twitter.com account for a project and it asks for a "birth date", do NOT put in the current date. If you do, @Twitter@twitter.com will see that you are "under 13 years old" and lock your account. To fix it, you have to upload a scan of your ID and wait.

The USPS only gives Tribal residents PO boxes. Only residents with street addresses can vote. The Supreme Court just cut off voting rights to Native Americans in ND. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/10/supreme-court-makes-it-harder-for-tribal-north-dakotans-to-vote/

Migratory birds can 'sleep fly' during long flights.
It was bad enough when constant telemarketing / phone fraud calls rendered my land line useless. Then they came for my cell phone. Today I got two of them on my work desk phone.
What's to be done? I'm on the do-not-call list, but that obviously has no effect on scam artists (especially international ones).

It is well past time we eliminate the Electoral College, a shadow of slavery’s power on America today that undermines our nation as a democratic republic. https://twitter.com/juliaioffe/status/1048313471002189824

Working on installing #tensorflow with GPU support on my new Windows box. One of the "fun" parts is making sure you have the right version of all the prerequisites.
Not the latest version. The right version.
For example, you need to have a 2015 version of Visual Studio.
Python virtual environments make this relatively painless for Python libraries, but what if it turns out I need VS 2017 for something else?
If Beat Saber works this well, I should totally be able to write a VR game about Samoan fireknife dancing.

The "First Contact" tutorial for @OculusRift@twitter.com is ... compelling.
Aside from the fingernail-gnawing delivery process, setting up the @CORSAIR@twitter.com has been surprisingly low-stress. I wonder how much of that is due to how amazingly quiet it is.
