Another day in paradise. Mission Bay, San Diego

Panorama of Mission Bay.  Lots of sailboats and whatnot out on the water.

Temporarily blinded myself pushing all the buttons on the boat store display. The lights for under the boat are exceptionally bright.

Boat light display. Lights and buttons.

@ricci from the same host in our office in san mateo, ca. it goes back like this for the 360 days i have data. i also ping aws datacenters around the world. every once in a while you see a step function to some location or another, either up or down, and i wonder what the story is. the only time i ever got an answer was many years ago when latency between san diego and hyderabad/bangalore jumped. iirc an anchor broke a cable in the mediterranean sea.

smokeping graph of dns latency to 1.1.1.1 showing very steady at ~10ms

@bolts "by mistake"?

@AssociatedPress @health-AssociatedPress what!? why aren't they going with trump's concept of a plan?

@catsalad our cat ignores them. our dogs gets confused - what is that rumbling and why did the wine bottles tip themselves over? as an adult only one has made me concerned enough to do something. i was at the theater with my ~9yo daughter. at first i thought someone bumped into the projector then realized "earthquake. big." picked up my daughter and started to the exit. the quake stopped by the time we got to the exit door. everyone kinda stood there for a beat then went back and sat down. they rewound a few minutes back and the show went on. my daughter remembers the movie (burton's alice in wonderland) but not the earthquake.

The people who support $12B in corporate welfare to farms and forgave $80B in auto bailouts and forgave $700B in bank bailouts and forgave $755B in PPP loans want you to know that forgiving medical debt and student debt is socialism😐

@jalefkowit where's the cutting torch when you need it?

i wish i knew what caused. none of the other many servers/services i monitor did this.

smokeping graph showing dns latency to google dropping from about 30ms to 16ms from december 2 to dec 7 then going back up to about 25ms until the plot ends on dec 20.

My retirement account is doing great this month, thank you very much.

@infobeautiful #cannabis is a floor wax too.

@counternotions my gopher client didn't have an address bar.

hey look at that - the pacific ocean's pretty big.

illustration of the earth where only a sliver of north america, new zealand, hawaii, and a bit of australia  and papua new guinea are showing. japan, ecuador, and peru labels show but you can't see the land.  the rest is water. a lot of water.

@ricci and why never nearer ado?

@jhavok @ai6yr The news never reports when a dog bites man.

Mel b saying “this may be the last time we all play together…” 😱

the world sevens format works well with the style eidevall's been having the wave play.

@npr @politics-npr you mean besides pedophilia, rape, war crimes, bribery, racism, and crimes against couches?
