The patio I did at church is holding up pretty well after 6 years, despite the apple tree doing its best to destroy it.

Okay there's something really cool I've just learned. If you are continuously recording air pressure e.g. as part of your home automation setup or a weather station then you should really check the data of the last 24h.
You should be able to spot the pressure wave from the volcanic explosion in Tonga earlier today.

It reached my setup in Kaiserslautern at about 20:30.

To minimize suffering and to maximize security were natural and proper ends of society and Caesar. But then they became the only ends, somehow, and the only basis of law — a perversion. Inevitably, then, in seeking only them, we found only their opposites: maximum suffering and minimum security.

@neauoire Do you have any experience with PLCs? I’ve been designing my hydronic heating/cooling system for my new home and was thinking a PLC would be a good idea. I imagine one could run Uxn, but I’m not sure where to start. Any ideas?

Hanging out with a bunch of bros, breakfast burritos, coffee, and scripture. I love that the guys at our church make fellowship a priority.

Just heard that Sidney Poitier died. Really liked him in The Lilies of the Field, The Heat of the Night, and Sneakers.

I shouldn't pick up anything else, but I've been thinking about starting a primitive cartography club. Folks could use means and methods similar to what was used in the 18th and 19th centuries to make maps for fun, education, and decoration. Maybe have competitions to locate buried treasure or something. Good exercise!

Started the new Ghostbusters movie tonight...it looks surprisingly promising.

I posted these the other day, hoping to keep them to a single thread, but it probably looked like a bomb went off on the public timeline. Not sure if it even federated. Anyways, my apologies; this is much cleaner.

Watched About Time a few months ago and still thinking about it. Good movie that I’ll definitely re-watch.
