@meercat0 @me I'm getting inspiration to start writing again, and while it's warm ... our apartment is in better shape than it has been for a long time =)
@jf_718 TIL. This just makes me love him more. Congratulations on the new mayor. Hopefully Trump doesn't fuck with him. rollingstone.com/music/music-f…
planning on meeting a whole bunch of new friends while hosting a lockpick village at a hacker conference this Friday and Saturday. The organizers have been super friendly and I have a good feeling about this. #SummerCon
@me Lockpicking is a crazy easy skill to pick up and learn the basics. We run workshops (usually for marketing events to get tech folks to show for a product pitch) and can teach anyone to pick in under an hour. It's a fun hobby that comes in super handy once or twice a year.
@Lockpick Extreme Maybe I'll try to learn again, though I should probably wait until I'm employed again to buy anything as frivolous as a pick kit.
I still remember the time my cousin and I tried to make and use a bump key when he locked himself out of a room. We never got it to work. I eventually left him with a "welp, you're on your own." 🙃
@me you're never too poor to make your own lockpicks. My first pick was made from a hacksaw blade. Winshield wiper blades and street sweeper bristles make good materials. My first set was a $5 Chinese set. As we say in locksport, open is open.
my cat Brienne went to the vet for the first time ever and didn't maul them. She was very well behaved. She's very feral still, but at least she had manners.
Not to rub it in, but Australia learned from America's poor choice of president and went further left, keeping the Labour party in for another term and eating into our equivalent of the Republicans. In the fall out the losing parties even broke up their coalition so they might even never win again (At least not in that form). Unfortunately as collateral damage, Labour also ate into the Greens votes. But overall everyone is pretty happy about it. Murdoch media was fuming of course.
This week a “life-changing” breakthrough in gene therapy has given people born with genetic hearing loss potential for recovering some of their hearing.
Also Britain’s Ash trees are becoming resistant to Ash die back.
