Anyone who cannot understand that a useful science can be built on stunt hacking will not understand my life, either. All we have is each other. To change everything, start anywhere.

Attention Lesbians: The adorable little toolbox from Harbor Freight is really well made, costs $20, and comes in several cute colors. www.harborfreight.com/mini-steel-t...

A two-drawer mechanic’s toolbox. It is painted bright purple and is about the size of a breadbox.

A wide panoramic image showing a massive stormcloud over a parking lot. There are beautiful twists and whorls of light on dark grey, with yellow sun peeking out in a few places.

🚨 ingress-nginx is now retired 🚨 Stop by the SIG Security booth P-4B at #kubecon #cloudnativecon for a commemorative sticker! We will be there this afternoon and Thursday afternoon. Hope to see you there!

A cackling goose (Branta Hutchinsii) in flight, proclaiming “I migrated off ingress-nginx!”

Does she look joyful? Does she look mischievous? Is she just glad it’s over? Only you know for sure!

Note also the 2020 copyright date on their webpage. What a scam.

Gotta go, my ride’s here

Leliel from Evangelion, an abstract malevolent entity that apparently consists of energy confined within curved surfaces in higher-dimensional space. The photo depicts its shadow, which appears to be a huge black and white striped sphere floating above Tokyo-3.

I had never heard of this movie, but the anger of this boring man’s review makes me think it’s probably really good.

Screenshot of a comically angry movie review. It begins “Millennial self-indulgence.
This is yet another fetishistic project from yet another artist wannabe (read, maladapted person), that wants to take herself very seriously.”

A great exploit happened here! Happy Honkukah, all 💥

Btw… they use Arch

They figure it out 😍

The 3 main characters from Singin’ In The Rain collapsed adorably onto an overturned couch together after staying up all night.

What’s your sign?

This diagram looks like a shitpost

Caution: Do not touch the ink tube.

A line drawing illustrates an inkjet photo printer. A human reaches toward the ink tube and receives an admonishment.

Hard Mode Quiz! If you were a NON-LEGENDARY creature, which would you be?

Faerie Miscreant. A hand-size humanoid creature with dragonfly wings kneels on a book, slicing through one page with a tiny sword.

The card’s flavor text reads “One faerie distracts the judge while a second steals the law.”

I love this new slide film from Harman Technology! It’s great for wildlife photography!

A bright blue damselfly rests on the edge of a saturated green leaf. The bug’s long body becomes blurry toward the end due to shallow depth of field.

Shot on Harman Phoenix @ ISO100, cross-processed in E6 with 1.5g/L NaOH in the color dev to remove the magenta cast.

Under the right circumstances, it looks like a whale!

Lake Harriet Bandshell, illuminated at night. The curved roof at the front is lit from below and looks a little like the plates of a baleen whale.

Just like @sailorhg.com’s “purr programming”

A woman posing while wearing a graphic tee. A cozy high-key illustration in a cyan and magenta color palette shows a femme programmer laying on her tummy and sitting up to a laptop, while 3 cats lounge on or around her. Across the top the motto “purr programming” is written in a loose and attractive cursive.

He is an anthropomorphic pile of tubular bicycle tires, and he will shank a man without remorse.

An utterly unsettling late-1800s advertisement for Michelin tires. Bibendum is standing and offering a toast with a coupe glass full of dangerous road debris. He holds a cigar in the other hand. Beside him are two corpses of others of his kind, labeled (in French) “Tire X” and “Tire Y”. The dinner table is littered with other hazardous objects such as nails and safety pins. An open can of tubular tire cement sits near his plate, looking for all the world like a beer can.

Text: NUNC est bibendum!! c'est— à— dire: “À VOTRE SANTÉ LE PNEU Michelin BOIT L'OBSTACLE!”

Here is a few from my sister’s boat race last weekend. Shot with a Nikon F100 and the 35mm F/1.8G DX. (Lens designed for APS-C DSLRs, thus the heavy vignetting. Love this lens on film! 😁)

Dozens of rowing fans sit along the north shore of the Montlake Cut, watching the Windermere Cup. Rich blue paint on the concrete sea wall, oil-pastel green leaves, and textured dark teal water are noticeable.

Black block letters spell LAKE UNION CREW on a wild orange-red background while vibrant green water laps at the concrete.

A dopey black floof of a dog smiles at the camera, surrounded by the pants as shoes of a crowd of rowing fans.

So excited to see my teammates Kaitlyn and Jordan getting their flowers for their work with VAP at Datadog! The Gatekeeper deployment they replaced was my project, and it’s wonderful to see it replaced with something better 🤩

Stop by the SIG Security booth in the Project Pavilion and say hello! We’ll be open another half hour, until 13:45. P-17B: we have stickers, friendly faces, and hacks!

The SIG Security co-chairs, Cailyn, Ian, and myself, smiling before the SIG booth. A goose honks in the distance.

The sky had pretty things to say last night in Minnesota #aurora

A horizontal photo of the Aurora borealis, showing a tall magenta streak, and fluffy magenta, yellow, and green bands. A low rambly horizon traces the bottom of the frame and hundreds of stars dot the sky.

Your photo is really pretty, and I really enjoy the juxtaposition of straight and curved lines in it due to the power lines and railroad tracks. There was an aesthetic like this in 1990s anime.

If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery.

Picture tax

A cozy room. Next to a brick chimney is a cubical end-table of light oak wood with intricate cathedral grain, about 20” on a side. In the foreground is a rainbow-gradient shag rug. In the background is a simple gray couch, a vintage racing bicycle, and a bi pride flag.

Force of Will. Not only did I play it in every deck for years and years, but I love how its existence fundamentally changed the nature of the game. You can’t just overextend yourself, secure in the knowledge that your opponent doesn’t have UU up. This is the judge promo alternate art version 🤩
