Weather service: We don't get hurricanes in the California Bay Area. Our ocean is peaceful! That's why we call it the Pacific! I love you lil bro!🤗

Also weather service: Warning citizen! Prepare for the hurricane shaped storm that will drop hurricane amounts of rain, and knock your trees over with hurricane force winds! But it's not a hurricane! Never call it a hurricane! We call it either a Pineapple Express, or a Unicorn Sprinkle, or a Gumdrop Hug! Pick up sand bags instead of weed today!🦄🌼☮️✌🏻

A clothing item mnemonic to check your local IP without getting loads of output (kinda like old ifconfig limited to lines you care about):

ip -br a

The space before the a is kinda hard to remember, but it stands for address and is not a flag.

Today in 1983, 40 years ago: The ARPANET officially changes to using TCP/IP, the Internet Protocol, effectively creating the Internet.

Here are some 'beaver basics' in considering where to build their new home base:

* safety (hydrology) from predators,
* shelter (good denning and refuge holes),
* abundant food supplies (for many mouths over many years), and
* human tolerance

Another grey day resulted in us heading to the forestry for a change of scene - all those great hiding places has given you the chance of a double game of ‘Spot the Dog’ today. Fingers on buzzers…

After 20+ hours of drawing, I finished a graphite portrait of my friend’s dog, Dyson, who passed away last year. Tomorrow I will frame it. This will be a surprise present for my friend who gave Dyson a great life.

It looks like a squirrel, climbs like a squirrel, barks like a squirrel. Weird things in the #forests of #Polesia.

There's a "gotcha" meme going around. It asks you to "divide 20 by half and add 10", and then mocks those who answer 20 instead of 50 for their poor math skills.

This is silly. It has nothing to do with math skills, and everything to do with how people choose to interpret ungrammatical English expression for a mathematical operation.

The key observation is that we don't say "divide by half." We say "divide IN half" or "divide by ONE half".

You can then build up a proper Matching Weights and Styles (MWS) stylesheet without having to license, upload or reference any font files, it'll look crisp and professional, and all those faux-style problems disappear.

Tell your friends!

The next issue is that your organization doesn't have the budget for licensing larger font families.

In that case, may I propose that you don't use webfonts, but instead specify the font-family as "system-ui."

Modern system fonts include a fairly full range of weights and styles, such as Apple's San Francisco, Microsoft's Segoe UI, Android's Roboto, and others such as Ubuntu.

Using system-ui means the font is already on your visitor's computer!

The best thing we can do for our pets is to give them a life of which we might be a bit envious. #DogsOfMastodon

Cebula w donicy na balkonie wypuściła młode, zielone pędy.

Nie chciało mi się przed zimą chować, niech się "skompostuje", wiosną będę "sadził" nowe.

Ciekawe, czy będą przymrozki jeszcze, doświadczenie mówi, że tak, ale doświadczenie nie pamięta tropikalnych nocy 18 stopni w sylwestra... 🤔
