RE: https://woof.group/@dkub/117177965139967142 I did not get that nap and when I finally hit the wall and collapsed Saturday night THEN the camp across from us did a full 3 hour DJ B2B exactly 45 min after I achieved unconsciousness and that led to a complete meltdown as everyone who attempts […]

I have a sliver of cell signal. I'm in line to get into Black Rock City. Yes it's 2 am Pacific. Yes it's "only" 3 hours to get in. I would like a nap before the sun rises.

Hi. Hello. My Mad Max Roleplay now has Elon Musk Internet now that we have spent MULTIPLE days of sober downtime figuring out that a Starlink Mini without enough watts will bootloop and that my Solix Solar Generator's USB-C ports support different max wattages.

The best part of ASL is when you need to express JUST HOW FULL YOU ARE OMG *brings hand up from his chest to under his chin and pretends to drown*

Finally linked up with my people. The hugs made me cry a bit. Feels like I've been alone for way longer than the few days I've been on this trip so far.

Trying to kill time in Reno alone waiting for my friends so we can go do the line in together with my anxiety spiking to "oh God what the fuck am I doing I should just go home and never cross the Mississippi river again" levels is going to be the end of me.

Four Corners Coffee and More, Silver Springs, NV Classic diner vibes with good coffee, an espresso machine, surly wait staff, and regulars the cook greets by name and makes little inside jokes with.

I have just learned while poking at routes home of the Route 50 Survival Guide and that is now on the bucket list because YOU GET A GOLD STAR IF YOU DO IT

The stretch of US95 between I-80 and Fallon, NV is a terrifyingly desolate stretch of wasteland known as the 40-mile desert and it is DEEPLY haunted. I can only imagine the horrors that awaited pioneers that went to "see the elephant."

Repacked the back of the truck. Mostly. Discovered as I went to pull away I missed two Walmart bags of spare bike parts. Demooped them and stuffed them in some utility pouches I picked up back in Utah. Will do a final repack down the road but right now I'm annoyed and just want to be on my way.

you will live to see manmade horrors beyond your comprehension

Elko, NV is a fascinating piece of Small Desert Town Americana and there is no good hotels here. Even the "Ramada Inn" attached to a Casino is very much a Motel. So I would advise finding your sense of adventure and going with anyone with "1 GB MBPS" wifi.

[LLM Bullshit] I'd like to point out model collapse *is* happening Opus and Sonnet 5 write weird as fuck. Got a report today from a slop zombie that had, "Before you run this command in anger, it isn't validated against prod." What?

A mild case of altitude sickness, time zone lag, and Holy Shit Am I Actually Going To Do This? as I am now 48 hoursish from disappearing into the desert for a week has me trying to decide if I'm hungry? @.@

Friend requested I obtain a pack of menthols for us to indulge in (yes I am aware of the moop planning for cigarettes). I joked we should get some Virginia Slims. He said they make him too cunty. I said, "But we could be PLAYA AUNTIES!" Now I gotta hit up a Goodwill and get a dress. 🤣

So I picked up a SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E as a backup Meshtastic node for my Heltec V3 ESP32. While the range sucks balls on the T1000 the battery lasts for *days* and it recharges super duper fast. The Heltec V3 lasts for maybe a day and takes hours to charge. But it has better range.

Well. Since I'm in almost nowhere Nevada I think some enchiladas are in order.

The amount of )'( Some Name )'( 1 mile away on Scruff is kinda hilarious and yes everyone along I-80 at this point is like "oh God it's THAT week isn't it?"

I can no longer use it's a trap memes at work because every last page of Claude Slop contains "this is the trap".

#DollyParton

I sincerely need the Deezer algorithm to stop being obsessed with piano and covers of the interstellar theme. I kid you not every time I pick a nice little piano track and start a track radio. I get five different covers of the interstellar thing in a row

Okay but it's weirdly comforting to open sniffies on an anonymous account and see there's a smattering of homos running around Nowhere Nebraska.

I cannot resist a run down diner, or watching a Midwestern front roll across the plains.

Have accidentally visited Downtown Underground in Kansas City, MO and what the fuck lmao was not expecting "Google find a fastener store along my route" to take me here!

RE: https://woof.group/@dkub/117148075245848663 I would like to clarify I had a really rough day yesterday and my nervous system was very activated. I am fighting tooth and nail with the specters of what happened in Cleveland on this trip. This in no way is an objective opinion about St. Louis.

Boy/Pup Praxis@dkub.dev · last wk.

St. Louis is A Place that reminds me of Cleveland and I think I will take a quick nap and GTFO of here.

There is nothing more funny than the super butch lady in the Valvoline Instant Oil Change helping me figure out how to pop my trunk and then saying, "Don't worry, sweetie. We got you. We love the gays."

Okay but crossing the Illinois state line to get a severe thunderstorm warning is very on brand

Forgot about my rainbow truck nuts. And pulled over at a rest stop and took them off. Shout out to the couple towing a uhaul that said they loved them and wished I didn't have to take them off.

I stg bitches be walking in Bucee's like they ain't gotta piss.
