=<{ Generation X raised by Chuck D and Terminator X }>= Unapologetically feral. I talk plain, it saves time. Spent my childhood a farm, grew up free range in East Side San Jose. No college degree, muscled my way into tech straight out of High School.
A's headed to Italy Farm, didn't want to let her go. Watched her leave right here on the couch. She just ripped down the runway moments ago... Heard the engines screaming as the jet banked over the neighborhood headed for the Midnight Sun. Schrödinger's girlfriend for the next several hours :(
Man... An adult needs to take editing software away from me. #MaineCoonSky
No. He didn't die. I'm just taking a break from the grind here in the office and he was adorable today. I helped build the Internet, this is what we built it for.
You just do not get this level of Street Theater sitting on the farm in the middle of Rural Italy. if you're a Sith Lord in the Excelsior district in San Francisco tonight I suggest you find somewhere else to be because the Jedi are out on patrol this evening... apparently.
For reference, 1.5 years ago, fucker. He could stand up and use it as a urinal now with one of his soup can paws on the back wall.
1.5 years old, pushing 25 lb. Laszlo is not fat, all rippley muscle. His new favorite game is 'run into the playroom and bounce off Daddy's chest with all four feet knocking the wind out of him'. I weeze... laugh, pick myself up off the floor, give him treats and encourage it. #MaineCoonSky
Same answer as above, LambdaMOO. To a degree rules, laws, order, and consequences existed in the MOO. There was quite literally a published book that made the rounds as Modern Social Media showed it's own dark side. To those of us from LambdaMOO, it was all just a little bit of history repeating.
A reminder that 5 years ago we realized the US was fucked and decided to move our life to Italy and wind out the rest of our days there. An entire farm in the Abruzzo region cost us 400 grand. Considerably less than a SF Bay Area home on a postage stamp lot in a soon to be abusive Police State.
One sub-200-dollar Amazon Warehouse Deal refurb Chromebook later and I've got a functional lappy again. I really missed a super-tiny, under-2-pound, 13-hours-on-a-charge Chromebook. They are just SSH jumping points and web GUI joysticks to me so they are (chef kiss) perfection and so inexpensive.
While I've not been going that deep, I did use my tooling here in the office to solve 3 problems I've been having. 1. sitting a thing down and not being able to find it again. 2. a thing clogging up because it did not sit upright. 3. a thing drying out because the ports are not covered when stored.
JFC I'm designing and printing dumb shit like this in California. State can't just leave me the fuck alone and let me be me. Man quit future trippin'. Don't get it, Tons of firearms purchased straight over the counter legally following their dumb laws. But my printer is scary. Eat my whole ass.
Can you imagine if this catches on? Rossi, Spies, Bostrom, Edwards, Pedrosa, Stoner, Lorenzo all saying, "Wait... That looks like fun." All the old guard blowing dust off their leathers and hopping on HD Baggers to race 'Formula Dinosaur' for shits and giggles? I'll make the popcorn :) #MotoSky
Andrea Iannone is now calling out Rossi and Stoner saying they need to come out of retirement and get their assess on one of the Harleys in the Bagger World Cup race that is piggybacking with MotoGP and come play with him. #MotoSky
Nice, very similar to the AGs we use at Fattoria Del la Drift in Italy. Which can be fixed with hand tools and harsh language. The large 300~500k Laverda combines and similar equipment that rip around the farm do not seem to have the service and repair issues that the Deere equipment has Stateside.
Look man, if you're going to leave me alone with no adult supervision with these toys and software... just sayin' Yes, my roller skates are motorcycle boots. Yes, I used to proudly officiate flat track. #3DPrintSky #SimDriftingSky #DerbySky #MotoSky #SimRacingSky
Fuck no... We ain't goin' out like that. We ain't goin' out like that. Pedal Camera on the dev-rig just got a new backdrop.
Chromebook shit that bed and the thing I'm sad about the most is the cool collection of stickers I'm going to lose... Salvaged the battery and the drive.
Should be interesting... #SimSky #DriftSky #VRSky #GamingSky #SimRacingSky
I have been badgered into a TikTok Gotta farm up the account before I can post anything. A follow would be nice. I'll follow back. www.tiktok.com/@mike.from.b...
