Maybe I will be like that Crypto guy, SBF. People will be eating Thanksgiving giving dinner and I will just be at the table playing on my laptop pretending like I’m paying attention to everything.
Trying to force myself to get ahead so I can allow myself some Thanksgiving Minecraft. I bought the Java edition years ago but never really tried it.

I was turned down from getting a booster because I don’t have my Covid vaccination record card…I guess to get around this obstacle I should schedule an appointment for my “first” vaccine?

If you leave a GitLab tab open long enough, you get a history of the 2020s:

I want to give some love to the resource I used when making my hex map Pico8 code.
https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/
Red Blog Games has pages of explanations and examples in a bunch of languages on both the theory and practice of hex map game programming.

Some Mastodon tips I've learned:
- You need a fit, young hunting party
- They are not easy to bring down, so make sure your spears have extremely sharp tips
- Ensure you have a supply line and pack animals available to transport the meat and pelt back to the cave
@cf_ i grew up in the North Hills so it’s amazing to not have to drive everywhere. I feel the same! I work in either Murrysville or Cranberry so its not often that I have the chance.
My dad said he thought the name change would allow them to expand beyond Pittsburgh. I think they have a long way to go if that’s the case lol.
There are only two light train lines in Pittsburgh and I always pick the wrong one.
Ok, I admit that I’m worse than a fair weather fan. Nice interception and field goal to cap of the 1st half!

I am heartbroken by this news. 5 are dead and 18 wounded from this horrific armed assault at a gay club hosting a drag show night in Colorado Springs.
An attack upon our community anywhere is an attack upon us all everywhere. My heart is with the victims and their families.
