You know what I miss? I miss looking forward to new Doctor Who. 40 years of goodness, destroyed in a couple of years by wokeism. For nothing.

I agree. I came to it when it was rebooted and really enjoyed it. So much so that I had gone back and watched all of the original old ones I could find...including a series where the video was lost but they "cartooned" the audio. It was clever if not cheesy!
But I watched half of the first episode of the new doctor and haven't watched it since.
It's like everything else that gets woke, it turns to hot garbage.
Broke my leg #running in March. Ran 16 miles before work this morning. Attached is a photo of the moon and Orion at my mid point this morning.

Does anyone else use an internet cafe type setup with their kids?
We forget to kick them off, and don't do very well tracking how much time they have had for the day/week - it's getting a bit excessive.
We need something that can run on windows, and locks you out when your turn is finished. Needs to be time credit based (e.g. you earnt one hour for cleaning up your room , or daily ration of time) not clock based
This 1963 report on how the Communist Party wanted to take over America is so relevant for today that it's unreal

One deadly sin down, six more to go!
For thousands of Americans, collecting unemployment even though there are plenty of jobs available for them, it's already been sloth month for a while now.
BLM and Antifa have shrugged off upcoming official months, saying they can celebrate all seven deadly sins every day of the year.
My 12 year old wants to try game development. Any recommended tools? I've seen goDot...is that the place to start?
I work primarily in business software these days,not sure what the best entry points for game development are.

NIH deleted data from early Wuhan COVID samples because a Chinese scientist asked them to.
Someone decided to Follow The Science instead #followthescience and found the data and its revealing.

Please, all Android developers, make a system that can fake the contact list, files and photos, location and phone ID and other information that apps usually require (but don't need).
Android only lets you disable those things, but that's not it - some apps don't work without consent.
All I could find was #xposed and #xprivacy, but it doesn't seem to be evolving much and it's definitely not for casual users. I'd love to have a system that pretended to be Android, but be based on #lineageos & #OpenGapps and include those xprivacy features by default.
To be honest, I'm completely fascinated that no one is working on this! So many developers and nobody cares about privacy?
Flying today, the TSA staff require everyone to put a face mask on to get through security.... Then immediately ask for the mask to come off for visual identification check.
