My first actual embroidered patch! Designed it myself in Ink/Stitch.

We launched soda bottle rockets on Monday, May 4th, with the beavers, which was a total blast (oblig. dad joke). Now I can give everyone a little memento to remember it by.

The only "dirty" thing I care to have tonight is a vodka martini.

"Gluten free vodka?"
Ugh, I guess I should be happy it doesn't say "AI vodka".

Yeah, thanks for that completely unnecessary mental image. I knew spam was bad, but now it's bad for mental health, too.

Oh no, not "grep-based static analysis"!

I wonder how many of these @gregkh has to look through each day. At least this one was sent to the generic address, not to security@.

I am now an owner of a Brother embroidery machine. Spent much of Sunday poring over Ink/Stitch tutorials, but I'm yet to take the actual machine out of the box.

Who needs a 3d printer when you can 2d print something by rapidly stabbing it with a sharp implement.

EU traffic to lore.kernel.org is now served by two OVH-hosted nodes, one in Strasbourg, another in Warsaw.

Huge thanks to OVH for their support!

I had the nerdiest and most dad-jokiest dream. In the dream, we got new neighbours who had a college-aged daughter. When we invited them over for cookies and tea, I started asking the daughter what she was majoring in. She said she was studying linguistics. I then asked what area specifically (since it happens to be a nerdy hobby of mine). She said she was particularly interested in verbs (look, this was a dream, okay?).

"Verbs?" I asked, a bit confused.
"Yes, specifically the indefinite tense."
"That sounds very specific," I remember saying.
"Yes, well, I want to thoroughly research the split infinitive."

I woke up because I was laughing.

The lesson of Y2K was this: if you fix the problem and do a very good job, you will be treated like you didn’t do anything and that the problem wasn’t real to begin with.

Edit: By my standards, this post is "doing numbers". Support my Patreon and/or Ko-Fi (Link in bio)!
