@janerationx He thought it was great! He was in the path of totality for the 2017 eclipse, so this is the second one he’s seen.
@janerationx The sudden temperature drop and the way it got dark were incredible.
Yes, we watched from a Kroger parking lot, if you were wondering. 🤣
@janerationx It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. Truly worth every minute of driving. And we beat the traffic back! I got a semi-decent picture using my phone.
We made it to Lebanon, IN with just over an hour to totality. #SolarEclipse
Never again in my life will I be so excited to drive to rural Indiana. #SolarEclipse
@janerationx I think the location nearest to me is the trouble one. I like to buy online for in-store pickup and the one closest to me often doesn’t have it ready until the next day. The other ones are faster but a pain to get to.
The Best Buy shopping experience is so miserable that I’ll go twice as far to specifically shop at Microcenter whenever possible. https://mastodon.social/@verge/112221998331225464
An earthquake shook the Northeast of the U.S. Friday morning, including New York City, Boston and Philadelphia. Initial reports said it was a 4.8- or 4.7-magnitude quake.

My credit union sent me an email with the subject line "Ready To Get Your Finances Back On Track?"
Bitch, they are on track! It's just the wrong train is all. 🙄
T-minus 5 days to the #SolarEclipse and the GFS cloud cover models are looking favorable. I'm hoping they hold through the weekend.
@Sheril The hope is to drive from Chicago to somewhere in Indiana. My fingers are crossed that the cloud cover models hold and that north of Indianapolis will be a good viewing spot!
@janerationx Listen, there were a lot of, uh, Linux ISOs to download.
We used 9.4TB of bandwidth in March, and at this point I wouldn't blame our ISP for taking away the symmetrical gigabit speeds. 🙈
Work told us that my team would switch to a Wednesday/Thursday in-office schedule starting this month (we’ve been on Tuesday/Thursday since I started).
Today they told us we’re actually sticking to Tuesday/Thursday. 🤦🏻♂️
I live close to the office and I do enjoy the change of scenery when I go in, but I wish I could pick my two days.
Verizon: little to no signal inside of Microcenter.
Also Verizon: 3.7Gbps a block away
I should’ve planned it months ago but I think we’re going to find some BFE country road in Indiana to view the solar eclipse. I know it’ll be a traffic apocalypse no matter what but if we can avoid I-65 I don’t think it’ll be that bad.
@janerationx Shit like that is why I keep my credit union account from Wisconsin even though the nearest branch is two hours away.
@janerationx I think so. I kept giving them fake codes to waste their time and it was glorious. 😂
