A color landscape photo of a shoreline of a large alpine lake. The water in the foreground is green tinted and crystal clear and there are many gray rounded boulders from the center into the lower right portion of the photo. A small conifer tree grows from one of the boulder created islands at center-right. Flat blue water is seen extending out from center-left to upper left. In the distant background in the upper left are snow-capped mountains. steep slopes angle up from the sinuous lake shore on the right. The sky is clear blue.

I was wondering when a reporter would uncover this.

So BitLocker is super secure, right? Well... BitLocker recovery keys are backed up to Microsoft's Cloud - and they give them out to law enforcement on request. Using the BitLocker recovery key, you can just unlock the device without a PIN etc.

Medical Recommendations with Avian Intelligence

#webcomic #krita #miniFantasyTheater

A webcomic in four panels:

Panel 1. The gothic sorceress lies in bed, with a hot towel on her forehead and a thermometer in her mouth. Closer on the bed, her Avian Intelligence (AI) Parrot is perched.
> Gothic Sorceress: "Ugh, I wanna die. This flu is brutal. Avian Intelligence, tell me how should I treat it?"

Panel 2. The AI Parrot responds with proudness in his pose.
> AI Parrot: "It's easy. Take a pinch of Shadow-Root powder in a glass of water and done."

Panel 3. The Gothic Sorceress turns angry at the bird. This one try to process why.
> Gothic Sorceress: "Wait a minute, Shadow-Root?! That's a #*$%@& lethal poison! Are you trying to kill me?"
> AI Parrot: "You weren't asking for?... uh..."

Panel 4. The AI parrot realizes "I wanna die" was just an idiom, feels stupid and embarrassed. The Gothic Sorceress facepalms under her blanket.
> AI Parrot: "Oh!"

A deep blue city night. Someone stands on a balcony, looking out at a starless sky, illuminated only by an eerie green glow from the door behind them. The building design suggests some alien brutalist architecture: heavy vertical lines, heavy walls, concrete everywhere. In the background loom similar buildings, all of them dark and uninhabited except for one small greenish glowing window. The buildings have small red and pale green glowing lights on top. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

The Horsehead Nebula

Image Credit & Copyright: George Chatzifrantzis

Explanation: Sculpted by stellar winds and radiation, this dusty interstellar molecular cloud has by chance has assumed an immediately recognizable shape. Fittingly known as The Horsehead Nebula, it lies some 1,500 light-years distant, embedded in the vast Orion cloud complex. About five light-years "tall," the dark cloud is cataloged as Barnard 33, first identified on a photographic plate taken in the late 19th century. B33 is visible primarily because its obscuring dust is silhouetted against the glow of emission nebula IC 434. Hubble space telescope images from the early 21st century find young stars forming within B33. Of course, the magnificent interstellar cloud will slowly shift its apparent shape over the next few million years. But for now the Horsehead Nebula is a rewarding though difficult object to view with small telescopes from planet Earth.

⚙️🫡 Steampunk Commander. An abandoned #ArtDeco control room inside an emergency standby powerplant, somewhere in #Belgium.

Navy blue panels line the walls, each set with analogue dials and levers. Two removed dials rest on the central desk, like top hats left behind by a Steampunk gentleman. Large windows and skylights fill the room with soft late-afternoon light.

This image shows an old, dusty control panel with gauges, switches, and levers, suggesting an abandoned industrial setting. Sunlight streams through grimy windows, illuminating the decay.

I sort of forgot about Mastodon for a while there.

I made a Facebook account a while ago to keep up with some friends, family, and goings on (mostly with the Slate truck).

Poking back here, I realize what a breath of fresh air it is. I should really focus on what's going on here as opposed to the rage machine. It's much cozier.
