@odd Thank you! As usual of course I notice all the flaws, but I can't deny they're turning out pretty good so far!

Well, six of twenty hours of manual driving lessons done (plus a bit of in-between practice) and the instructor has only had to use the “uhoh” break once, and only because I almost blew through a yield sign that was hidden behind a tree. Progress!

@mroutley Thank you! It was indeed!

So a quick update on my Tour Alberta for Cancer donor raffle: In addition to hand knitted socks, I’m excited to announce a fun little early bird prize for those who donate before May 29th: a hand-knitted stuffed gnome! For more information and a sample photo of what you could win, see my raffle post.

I did it! I successfully replaced the bad top screen on my DS Lite. The most nerve wracking part was transferring the speakers but otherwise it went fairly smoothly. Shout out to The Fix on YouTube for the video and Zedlabz for the replacement part!

@khurtwilliams Welp, looks like, while it worked in the past, something broke and right now the answer is no (the comment was syndicated to M.B via my RSS feed but the webmention didn't result in a reply to this thread). Apparently I have some debugging to do!

@brettkosinski
“can you successfully post replies to M.B. from your blog?”
There’s only one way to find out…

@hollyhoneychurch Thanks!

@V_ Now that is an excellent question! My wife has claimed this first little creature, so I'd have to check with her, but I suspect she's not had enough time to make that weighty decision.

@mindofaaronw That's very kind, thank you! It seems I'm running across a lot of people at similar crossroads. But, reflecting is the critical first step, and in my case that was really accelerated at the urging of an executive coach who got me to really pause and consider my career and the kind of impact I wanted to make. I just wish I'd done it sooner!

@jsonbecker Well, I just switched my site over to your lightbox package, and it is a very nice piece of work. Thanks again for the suggestion!
Brett Kosinski
@brettkosinski
@jsonbecker Just checked out the demo, that does look very nice. I will take a look! Thanks!

@greghiggins Definitely second the recommendation of The Expanse. I feels like a King novel in terms of pace, prose, and characterization, but they can actually write endings. ;)

@chrisaldrich Hah, yeah, it seems like the least annoying way to test the integration without standing up my own Mastodon instance! :)

@crossingthethreshold Darn right! Lots of folkies up here in Edmonton! And that's just the Thursday night crowd (the festival runs through Sunday)...

@Mark_DuBois I love funnel weavers! Not the least of which because, unlike orb weavers, these guys don't set up traps outside your front door for you to run into first thing in the morning...

@ArnoldHoogerwerf I'm just finally getting around to watching season 5 now (I'm on the Netflix schedule). So good! The problem is I sometimes forget to pay attention to the story because I'm so fixated on the cinematography...

@amit I wonder if I'm the only one who thought about these guys when I saw this: memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Benz...

@SamHawken Honestly that by itself is astounding given the quality of the writing. I'm a huge TNG fan, but if you ask me, having just finished the first season, season 1 of B5 >>> season 1 of TNG.

@pimoore I just recently saw that! The funny thing is, through trial and error, I settled on basically the same technique (which largely hinges on a very low, controlled brew). About the only thing I don't bother with is killing the boil at the end, as I don't find it makes a big enough difference for me to bother.

@joshuapsteele Relax. Ask for help. Have fun! Oh, and get a rubber duck.

@qldnick Thanks so much for the kind words! I will admit, as the new year has begun, the idea of a sabbatical has become increasingly attractive...

@jsonbecker it's on the queue!

@brettkosinski
@jsonbecker I'm only a couple chapters in and I'm already hooked! Which is good, as I wasn't sure what I was gonna pivot to after finishing The Expanse...
