Bekah D@bolderbekah.bsky.social · 3w agoRemember that #Boulder post office drivers kept crashing into? Inexplicably, they've decided to add a ramp for cars next to those big pane windows. There's enough of a lip to get up into the ADA spaces that someone is going to give it just a little gas. Context: www.9news.com/article/news...
One day left to stream "Everyone Is Lying to You for Money"! I watched last night, really enjoyed. I was already a crypto skeptic, but this was a well made documentary, great interviews, beautifully shot, and also felt very personal. I've also never watched "The OC" 😉

Steve Zahn appeared with Tom Hanks in "That Thing You Do", a fun story about music and one hit wonders. Steve Zahn and Colin Hanks appeared in Silo, not contemporaries, but linked by Peter Gabriel songs, Red Rain S2E3, and Here Comes the Flood S3E9. Just thought that was a neat connection.

Just yesterday there was a video on here of a storm drain rescue of a deer fawn and my immediate thought was Tim Curry’s Pennywise, RIP.

I once interviewed for an interesting job in TN. At lunch (barbecue, really good), was chatting with the plant manager about hobbies, mentioned I was an avid road cyclist. He responded, "Oh, well around here, drivers see cyclists as targets!" I did not accept the job offer.

Sure, PV doesn't generate power at night (when people are mostly asleep and loads are lowest), but hey, guess what? It's usually producing at max capacity when electric loads are highest.
Aarne Granlund@aarnegranlund.eurosky.social · 2mo ago"As heatwave-driven demand increased, solar was the only major power source to perform “better than usual” (...) average daily solar generation during the heatwaves was 17 per cent higher in France and Hungary, five per cent higher in Spain and the same in Italy." www.euronews.com/2026/08/14/t...
Welp, guess I'm an outlier in 50-64. Again. (seriously 50-64, wtf is wrong with y'all, you think Ai is showing itself to be *better* year over year?!?)
Pew Research Center@pewresearch.org · 2mo agoFor the first time, a majority of adults under 30 say they’re more concerned than excited about #AI. Their concern is now on par with those in their 30s and 40s, and those 65 and up.
Archaeology, ancient DNA and aerial survey data now challenge the claim that the Rapanui suffered a self-inflicted collapse before Europeans arrived. 🧪
What really happened on Easter Island?
For decades, an influential theory blamed the Rapanui for their own downfall—a story made famous by Jared Diamond’s book Collapse. New evidence tells a different tale

Been using CoachCat for training this year. Workouts are fine, but really tiring of the Ai. Rode the Zwift route “No Sleep Till Brooklyn” today, Ai says “That was a great effort on no sleep!” CoachCat is linked to my Whoop data, it knows exactly how much I slept! 🤦♂️ #Bikesky

God already built a wall through Big Bend — it's called the Chisos Mountains. We don't need to give billions of our tax dollars to out of state vendors. We don't need to desecrate this sacred land. We don't need this useless, disgraceful, corrupt Big Bend border wall.

Not a fan of super pacs in any form, but like gerrymandering, we need to use all the tools available. And happy to see my industry having enough power to start having an impact.
Josh Marshall@joshtpm.bsky.social · 2mo agoVery interesting. According to Politico a big reason slimeball Rep. Andy Ogles got whacked in Thursday's primary is because he was targeted with $2M by a super pac funded by solar execs. They didn't user solar or enviro arguments.
