In my opinion, the best scene in Community.

I haven’t watched Doctor Who in years, but I could totally see Hugh Laurie in that role…

Received today from our friends who have been living and doing ministry in Lithuania for the past couple of years:

Friends, these times are difficult. We stood by our students this week as they recognized three years of full-scale invasion in Ukraine. They wept, they worshipped, they remembered, and we participated with them as best we could. LCC is a strange place in that we share coffee and conversations every day with people from countries who are at war with each other. As an American, it is especially hard to describe the feeling of listening to a student share about the effects of your country’s actions on their family. You start to wonder, “Am I complicit?” In our roles at LCC, we care for the formation of our students’ minds and souls into those of well-rounded adults, but our government is taking actions that directly and negatively impact many of them and their families. If it isn’t clear, we stand with Ukraine. We stand by our students. Today, you will scroll past another video on Facebook of our country’s leaders making false claims, and tomorrow, we will hold a student whose life was directly impacted by it. To quote one of the faculty here at LCC: “When you have given your sole allegiance to Jesus and his kingdom, you never have to defend the indefensible, excuse the inexcusable, or feel
embarrassed by the one you follow.”

Ugh, why do LTO drives cost so much? I’m going to see if there’s a local transferring service until prices drop I guess.

It seems weird compared to now, but there wasn’t much homelessness where and when I grew up. Winston-Salem was around 150k people. The small number of people who chose the lifestyle sort of became well known and people helped them out. This lady, known as Night Rider or Bicycle Lady, has been in the public eye for around 35 years. She was recently attacked and is in critical condition. Once upon a time, she was a teacher, but lost a child and was never the same mentally.

@karlchristiankrumpholz I saw one at Expo Park last week!

I’m not sure how this hasn’t come up before, but Timber and Mesa (our Border Collies) think “guac” and “walk” are synonymous.

@LibrarianRA Those remind me of the elevators in In the Line of Fire with Clint Eastwood.

Went to check my SIP provider credit balance because I thought after a couple of years it had to be low. Nope! It had only burned $7.50 for 2 phone numbers in that time. We don't use the "land line" all that often, but it definitely comes in handy from time to time.

@mary had dinner tonight with all her sisters so, after I put the princess to bed, I had the opportunity to rewatch Napoleon Dynamite after almost 20 years. Mary just doesn’t get it, but it still makes me laugh!

@rl_dane Honestly I don't notice much difference, but the N150 is mostly used headless. What is interesting is how the price displays differently. When I'm signed in on Amazon it runs $160 with a coupon...very hard to beat that value.

@rl_dane While not desktops, I've been using FreeBSD on T480s lately that I got for around ~$200. I've also been using these energy efficient guys (which have come down in price) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DM25BD7Y

Who green lights this stuff?
