I’m once again a day late publishing. In my defense, I was on an airplane for like 6 hours yesterday. Binary Golf Grand Prix #5 kicks off, and I learned this week that I’m accepted to speak at BSides Las Vegas this year!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Finally, at the end of the night, comment on the new, barrowed, blue pattern and ask to finally try something else new for the two of you, and pop the question. 3/3

And show that borrowed item off for a bit, explain it and why you have it then move on. Later, have something "blue" handy, and comment on it. The more unique the better, could the object or the color blue. 2/x

Ok so this might take a set up. But go on a date that is something "new", something you two have never done before and tell her it is supposed to be new. Then casually mention that you have something on you that you "borrowed" from a friend (doesn't matter what it is). 1/x

The U.S. government has a Microsoft problem. Market dominance, bureaucratic inertia, and a savvy PR campaign have almost completely insulated the hack-plagued company from meaningful oversight, even as Biden administration officials preach corporate accountability. My new Wired story explains.

So there is the feeds option, which is the # symbol on the app or left side of the screen on the browser. You can find interests there, as well as the expected groups. Also, you appeared in my TL, so you are being seen, so ppl will find you too. Welcome, and I hope you have a good time here.

That's not AI. Clearly, it's a group of cats, out having a day on the town, stopped and took a selfie. Years from now, they will look back at that pic and remember the good times.

Some days, you just need to go into the walk-in, scream, then go back to the floor and check on your tables. I swear, some of the best lessons I ever learned came form working the FOH and the BOH when I was younger.

Fun fact: Y2K wasnt even fully mitigated. Flights were cancelled, ATMs and ticket machines failed, payment systems had billing issues, hospital MRIs stopped working, and even the Shika Nuclear Power Plant radiation monitor failed. It wasn't a made up problem.
