One of my favourite facts is that the spiky tail of a stegosaurus didn't used to have a specific name, until Gary Larson published this Far Side cartoon, at which point "thagomizer" was adopted by paleontologists.
Learned today that nobody else refers to acclaimed novelist William Gibson as "Billy Gibs"
@casabonitadenver.com can we make a VR experience for you for the Denver airport? on a layover here, so close, yet so far away.
Back from #CES and I can’t believe I don’t have face cholera from all the glasses I tried. fingers crossed.
#CES Day 1! informal party was great, smelled the new OVR Technology product we’re excited to keep working with this year, got introduced to Captify and checked out the new exhibits at The Punk Rock Museum. Scored sphere tickets (xydrobe) and was horrified by some robots.
Buttons are back. Knobs are back. Dumb devices are back. Own-it-forever software is back. Print is back. Personal websites and chronological feeds are back. Touching grass is back. People keep saying 2015, but it’s not far enough. The entire 2010s were a mistake. We must retvrn to… 2009.
Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

Got to see @birbigs.bsky.social and Please Don't Destroy at UCB NY last night with special guest Sarah Sherman!
I hadn’t seen how @sandboxvr.bsky.social is creating “ride through” videos, but it’s a great takeaway from an experience like this.
This VR thing I did for my birthday was fun af lol
In 2025, I'm going to try my best to get involved and care about local issues, especially around cycling and adding bike lanes. It's a "small" issue that, in theory, should be easy-ish for a lot of people to agree on. We got a victory in Kitsap this month. www.kitsapsun.com/story/news/2...
Bremerton's 'road diet' for Naval Ave approved, with city now to buy 83 slices of property
A city plan to reduce the number of lanes for cars on Naval Avenue was approved, with residents split on either side of the vote.
