Maybe it comes with a fart noise setting like the vehicles?

As atrocious looking as the truck. Well done!

I googled Tyll and this came up (posted about a week ago): Looks like he is the go-to DJ in the Nomad circles? http://nomadcentercamp.com/

Birthday bourbon it is! Have a good one, Bryan!

I had never heard about Cryptic Crossword Puzzles before seeing this video but now I want some! I'm probably too dumb to do them on my own, but they are really really clever.

Just finished The Golden Compass, Book 1. I'm ready to start the HBO series now! I enjoyed reading it, but I'm not sure I liked it as much as others seem to. Pullman strikes me as a decent writer, but coming off reading Ursula Le Guin his prose just isn't in her league. To be fair, few authors write as beautifully as she does. So many people seem to LOVE this series. I'll start in on book 2 and see if it hooks me more.

RIP Jack Burton Carpenter. Founder of the Burton company, snowboarding pioneer and champion of the sport. While I'm not a snowboarder myself, I'll tip my skis to him next time I am on the slopes. Fuck cancer.

Celebrating the Dan today on Pitchfork? As if I needed an excuse!

Happy birthday, #s!

Hopelessly stuck in my head.

Hillbilly Shakespeare, indeed. Still amazed at his output given that he never made it to age 30.

The big 4-0? Happy birthday, Chris!

Happy birthday, Mikey! Got any birth year scotch to celebrate with? ???

Played the first two hours last night. Hideo-mother-fu#$ing-Kojima! This is so damn weird and I love it! I'm thinking I might not be going outside much this weekend. -- EDIT: Finished it. A stunning piece of entertainment. It takes gigantic risks in a way that is so rare in AAA-budget entertainment. Kojima set out to make a game about connecting people and boy does he deliver.

So three episodes in the show seems to be starting to hit its stride. I really enjoyed that third episode. I have no idea what the show would be like to watch for someone who hasn't read the original comics or at least seen the movie. I think I'd be totally lost. -- Looks like HBO is doing an "official" podcast with the same host that did the Chernobyl official podcast. That podcast was great so I will be looking forward to checking the Watchmen one out later this week.

Frontline looks at the Paradise Fire. Unreal footage. Scarier than any horror movie I have seen. The radio chatter and the recorded 911 calls are heartbreaking. https://www.pbs.org/video/fire-in-paradise-ncamrn/

Go Nats!

How's the fit? I'm a little scared by the in-ear nature as I have not had great fits with IEMs in the past.

I am not normally one to optimize around edge cases, but... is this an edge case or is it just the new normal? At the very least, will have plenty of battery banks and food at the ready the next time around.

He made some amazing movies at Paramount. Also, to quote Rick James, cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Went in to SF for dinner last night for a warm meal and to charge devices and it was pretty damn surreal driving back across the Golden Gate Bridge into a nearly pitch black Marin County. It was like entering the void. Power is back on this morning but it is scheduled to go out again in a few hours and be out till potentially Wednesday evening. Plan is to run to the office, get my laptop, then go work at my boss's vacation home in Napa outside of the shut down area. I really hope we are saving lives here and not just shareholders, PG&E. This is such a pain in the ass.

Still no power this morning. It’s been out since 7pm Saturday. Word is now that it might be out until Thursday. This is insane. It might be time to head out of town for a few days and get a hotel room somewhere else.
