Happy Saturday!
So my wife keeps getting texts (4-5 per day) from the Democratic party, asking her to vote for Harris.
But they're from a state she hasn't lived in for a quarter century!
And they are offering to send her a ballot so she can vote absentee in that state! Again she hasn't lived there for 25 years, has moved 3 times since she lived there (and has continued to vote in those new addresses--all in different states).
And (get this) they are offering to PAY her (now technically that's to "talk to her friends" so they can say they aren't paying for her vote, but you can certainly read between the lines here).
And yes, it's a "battleground" state...
Still think the elections aren't corrupt?
I need a coffee...

Happy Friday!
Hope everyone is teeing up a great weekend. I recommend half-days on Friday! (Best way to do that is to put in one extra hour each day M-F).
Oh--and turn off your phone at noon on those Fridays (or it'll still bother you).
Time for some coffee and zaps!

3D printing - is it truly useful at this point? (Or just a gimmick for making toys?)
#asknostr
I'm thinking of getting into 3D, but wanted to get some opinions as to how folks are really using their printers...I can see some usefulness beyond the "toys" that seem to populate thingiverse, but wanted to get opinions.
Thanks!

Happy Thursday!
Almost to the weekend! Rainy day, but those only get your down on a Monday! 🤣 🤣
Time for coffee! (And zaps!)

Happy Wednesday!
So my wife likes to feed the local birds, and it's time to buy more bird seed...
Looked up her (well the birds') preferred seed - and it's selling now for $44.50...
Last October (yes, literally a year ago) that same bird seed was $24.50! (Looked up last year's invoice on Amazon.)
I know birdseed isn't probably included in the government's inflation calculations, but that's virtually double in just a year.
Birdseed...
Don't let anyone tell you inflation is "only" 3%...
(And if the destruction of our economy by the current administration isn't your top voting issue, well...)
Definitely need a cup of coffee to calm me down...

Ok Nostr--
In my "Trending 1h" feed (using @primal desktop) I'm occasionally seeing REALLY old posts (like from months / years ago).
Whats up with that?

Happy Saturday!
Nothing on the agenda today (other than my morning coffee)!
Maybe head out for some fishing...we'll see how the weather shapes up (looks like a nice day so far).
