Last Notes npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Alice! Don't give it away! #music #goth #SistersOfMercy https://youtu.be/T5btzIPgj8Q npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1gss…6tjx Thanks! I'm finally starting to feel better. Hopefully I can get in and do some weeding once it cools off this evening. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1pz2…4hd8 My mom used to take me up there every fall. To touch the dirt, to get a blessing and (maybe most importantly) buy the chile she liked. 😂 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Whenever my youngest is startled or incredulous he exclaims: What the beans?!?! I've started doing it too and it's quite satisfying. I invite you to add this phrase to your daily repertoire. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1nxt…6fck I bet it's a play on GURPS, since they were contemporaneous. Also they use BURPS on the SJG forums to describe a cut down version of GURPS which makes it extra hard to find information about this game. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1xt4…t94y I had forgotten about TWERPS! Yeah, it's similar in concept and execution. Kinda makes me want to put together my own zine-game. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1cre…vk7n Thanks! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I can't find any information on BURPS or Maverick Games. There are several projects with that name but none of them are related to this game. I feel like I ought to scan this and put it on archive.org but I also can't find any concrete info on the author Jerry Epperson to check if that's alright. Any thoughts? #ttrpgs #roleplaying #games npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1z5l…5ycy Ghost points! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1cre…vk7n If you're feeling off after any sort of bite (spider or not), get medical attention right away. If you want to ID an insect, try iNaturalist. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Look what I almost stepped on. Maybe I need to think about wearing shoes more often... Arizona Bark Scorpions are quite poisonous. 😬 #insects #bugs #scorpions https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/896/067/599/996/749/original/60e3ad767a17e738.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1mus…f68w Once they soften up and start to sag a bit they're probably ripe. Every type of fig is different though so you just gotta try one. If the skin still tastes bitter or acrid, it's not ripe yet. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael My youngest came in and said: Dad, I've got something to say. I replied: It's better to burn out than fade away. Then we listened to Def Leppard. Hope he wasn't trying to tell me something important. 😁 #parenting #defleppard #NumberOneDad npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1tlj…lvzk I'm just gonna say... If you like cinema weirdness, in The Fist of Death, the ancient mystical deity that the jungle tribe worship is a plastic C-3PO mask glued to the mirror. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1tlj…lvzk Yeah, I dig the background stuff (location, fashion, etc.) almost as much as the movie itself. If you haven't seen it yet, I'd recommend El Santo in The Fist of Death. It's... amazing... 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1tlj…lvzk I started this one but got interrupted before the first scene. I'm going to have to finish it up! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Welp, the plague that the kids brought home is back with a vengeance. I guess I didn't knock on wood hard enough and Loki heard me. It's not COVID. So, yay? Ahh well, I'll be on the mend tomorrow for sure. Right? npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub16nd…w7pv This is probably one of those "discretion is the better part of valor" situations. 😅 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael We barely got any rain today but this sky sure makes up for it! #NewMexico #weather https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/861/466/258/688/252/original/a15bcb3b7115ca70.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub189v…3lra Web COBOL? Wow... npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub189v…3lra Right? Fujitsu made a version of COBOL? I had no idea. Though apparently I had the install. 😅 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Finding some weird stuff in the garage... Like this Fujitsu COBOL cd for Win95, NT and 3.11. #cobol #programming #retrocomputing https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/860/416/834/843/547/original/423570a58dd1b7a9.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I went to bed feeling cold. Never a good sign for someone who lives in the desert. But, I woke up feeling alright and after I got everyone breakfasted then off to work and school, I went back to bed. I woke up feeling pretty good and today I feel totally normal. Looks like I dodged the bullet! (Frantic knocking on wood.) npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael In Smash Bros, I've gotten to the point where I can keep track of who I'm playing so I don't jump to my death as frequently. Sadly, the kids still crush me every time. Today, I thought I'd mix things up and broke out a copy of Street Fighter II. It was glorious. Being of a "certain age" I can pull off a fire hadouken in my sleep. They never had a chance. The sweetest moment came when one of the kids said: This controller must be broken. #parenting #SmashBros #StreetFighter npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1d6n…m959 Oof! Good luck! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael The kids have been passing around a terrible plague. As the stay at home parent, I've been taking care of them so I've had plenty of exposure. I'm feeling a little off today. I still went on my run and it was okay. Now I'm having a bunch of garlic for breakfast to juice my immune system. Hopefully I'll be able to dodge this one. Wish me luck, but maybe do it from a distance. 🧄#parenting #running #food #illness npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1qvh…8mxr I'm not sure what those ROM packs are for. The 8201 had something similar that gave you an extra 32k for file storage. I assume this is similar but I've never had the chance to play with an 8500. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael There's a beautiful NEC PC-8500 for sale on eBay. This is the ultimate evolution of the PC-8201a. It's out of my price range but it would be cool if someone here wanted to give it a home. If you're into early NEC, the Model T machines or just want Wordstar with nice keyboard, check this out. #NEC #ModelT #retrocomputing https://www.ebay.com/itm/204901510036 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1r90…73s4 It's gotta be... They even told me to keep the old one in case I needed spare parts. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1zhp…60ce I just got the shipping confirmation and they specifically told me to keep the old one for spare parts. I feel like I'm living in crazyland... npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Getting the tamarind pulp strained was a bit of a chore but here's my reward, a nice cold glass of tambran! #food #drinks https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/838/291/261/765/518/original/11740e82bc6c5367.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1zhp…60ce my plan as well. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1y0k…dhyh I'll tell everyone how great they were on my obscure social network. 😁 Seriously though, kinda like brother printers, I'll be sticking with Bissell from now on. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Woah, I just had a positive customer service experience?!?! Our vacuum broke and I emailed Bissell describing the situation and letting them know when we bought it. They said: So sorry for the inconvenience, we'll ship you a new one right away. No run around, no hassle about boxing up the old one, nothing... I'm not even sure how to react. #customerservice npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael This is why we practice: enlightenment is an accident; practice makes one accident-prone. -- Joan Halifax #buddhism #religion npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1gss…6tjx Yikes! Has it been raining up there? We just started getting some real precipitation which has made the air much nicer. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael My recipe for tambran says to start with ¼ cup of sugar. Maybe tamarind is sweeter in central America? 'cause I'm going to need a lot more than that to make this drinkable. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I found a block of tamarind pulp in the back of the fridge! Luckily, that stuff is so acidic, it never goes bad. Now I'm going to make up a big batch of tambran (tamarindo). Yum! #food #cooking https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/836/465/707/119/391/original/a72b66f3da0a8cf9.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I can't stay away from the SWAG bookshop downtown... I had previously read the Dharma Bums and it was fine. Honestly, for an unhinged Buddhist-Beat travelog, I'd rather read Gary Snyder. But, Kerouac's poetry is a whole different beast. It's really good. If you haven't read Scattered Poems, it's worth digging up a copy. #poetry #beatniks #buddhism #kerouac https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/831/521/772/045/012/original/59fb8844f37ee19c.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael For example one of Bashō's most classic poems is often translated: Old pond Frog jump in Water sound While the author of this work gives us: Listen! A frog Jumping into the stillness Of an ancient pond! I'm not entirely sure what I think about it. But Japanese is a very contextual language and I think this is a pretty valid way to approach these translations. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1893…x3ra I'm the same. Plus, my schedule is so chaotic that it's nice to have something I can enjoy without having to devote a huge amount of time to. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I picked this up at the SWAG bookshop downtown. I'm only really familiar with one of the authors. It's a little risky since 70's sci-fi authors were often excited by psychological themes that I don't care for but, for $1, I guess I can't really go wrong. 😁 #books #scifi https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/785/370/114/323/716/original/11b6649e776ccdc4.jpg https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/785/383/004/268/567/original/36f6e219d9375470.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub182s…q6t5 Thank you! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael It's our 25th wedding anniversary! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I had leftover salsa de pulla so garlicky black bean tacos were inevitable. #food #tacos #beans #salsa #cooking https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/768/786/058/804/250/original/0be2850fde4db7e8.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1n4a…wzvg On my phone, this screenshot was cropped to indicate that I was consenting to California. I'm not sure what that means but it sounds sinister. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1e27…80j6 We hardly got any rain but I heard there was flooding up north. Hope you didn't get too wet! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I was talking to mi suegra up in Santa Fe and she said they got a bunch of rain. We got about ten minutes of sprinkles but it's been cool and beautiful ever since. Not bad for June! #NewMexico #Weather https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/660/536/093/577/155/original/6e22f87922a0c6e3.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1x75…jm8l Yeah, the worst part about mine is that there's no way of knowing which switch does what. It just came with a sheet of possible monitor types and a list of codes to try for each one. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub182s…q6t5 I'm so sorry! Losing a piece of your life like that must be so hard. I'm glad you were able to find a professional outlet for some of that energy. ¡Abrazos amigo! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1x58…9qac Thanks! I'll mess around some more. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Decloaking after a couple of weeks off grid in Central America. I wish I had a bunch of pictures to share but I didn't have cell service so I just put my phone away and kinda forgot about it. It was great. Hope your summer (or winter for @npub182s…q6t5 ) has been wonderful so far! ♥️ npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Let's see what a $25 PC 8801 mkii looks like. It came wrapped in a Japanese newspaper, it has the cardboard drive inserts and most of the plastic port caps. All of which are good signs. 😁 At some point it had an expansion card that is no longer with the system. #retrocomputing #pc88 #nec https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/468/855/202/570/105/original/5d1ca905fd7f682a.jpg https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/468/862/971/738/864/original/795a3cc755b788ab.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1d6n…m959 Heh, yeah. I'm perpetually stuck in "the 80s were just ten years ago" mode. I hope it's fun and nostalgic for you. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1c5c…644a I love that area! Though I've never done the whole trail.

Things have changed a lot in Albuquerque over the last 30-40 years but there's still this undercurrent of familiarity. It's both foreign and home at the same time. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub13uq…2c2w Oh wow! That looks great! I haven't made a fish pie in forever but I might have to soon. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I would never use the OS that came pre-installed on a new machine. I always format and reinstall. Am I too paranoid? npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael They had some Puya chiles at the store. I'd never seen them before so I whipped up a quick salsa. I like them. Puya chiles are like chiles de árbol but not quite as hot. They also have a nice fruity flavor that árbol lacks. #food #salsa #chiles https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/446/480/234/710/841/original/a18d1a5e27c433b0.jpg https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/446/480/790/958/657/original/c6c92756f7cb7fa8.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1r7v…qwpu I guess Laibach might have been replaced by Alien Sex Fiend depending on my mood. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1r7v…qwpu House 10 Big Black Ministry Skinny Puppy Devo Laibach Sisters of Mercy Not as punkrock as house 8 but that's where I was in the 80s. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I was thinking about reverence for life as seen through the lens of the Heart Sutra. Often, as a practitioner, I feel like my goal is to escape samsara and achieve nirvana. But this sets up a sort of false duality. As they say, all dharmas are empty. Samsara is nirvana. Reverence for life means reverence for THIS life. Where is nirvana? It's right here. #ZenPrecepts #buddhism #zen npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I got my son a laptop for school. (Refurb T490s!) He's not super technical but, after watching his mom struggle with windows, he wants Linux. Here's the question. Do I install Ubuntu since most Linux software works with it and it's easy to admin or do I install something else? (I run Debian and BSD on my personal machines.) Thanks! #linux #distros #question npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Over the next several weeks I'm going to doing a series of meditations on the Zen precepts. I'll spend a week on each of the five basic precepts.

Came home and ate a couple of black bean tostadas with pickled jalapeños and had a nap in the treehouse. It was a good day. #food #sunday #naps #IceCube npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1gss…6tjx Oh man, what a sky! I'm jealous of your rain, things are getting pretty dry down here. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Look at this little cutie!

I'm looking forward to trying out the n88 version. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1zhp…60ce It's got the NEC version of the Z80. I think it's called the V50. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael I did something silly and I'm sorry. I bought an NEC PC 8801 mk II SR. But, in my defence, it was $25. 😅 #retrocomputing #nec #pc88 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1vwm…72uu Thanks! I'll check them out! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1zhp…60ce Same! It was strangely meditative. Sadly, I don't have the free time for it now. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael We're watching Delicious in Dungeon and it's got me in the mood to play an old school grid based dungeon crawler. Something in the vein of Wizardy or Might and Magic but with modern quality of life stuff like automap and streamlined inventory. Does such a thing exist? Is there one you like?

In your case my highschool English teacher would have said emphasized and italicized. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Welcome home! Let's get you a nice cozy heatsink and get you settled back in your case.

It's in there, singing its heart out. Unfortunately, because of the acoustics, it sounds like somebody farting into a didgeridoo. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1azg…254l I went and gave Cleo some pets for you.

Separate the cloves and put them in a glass jar with a lid. Shake it vigorously for 30 seconds or so and the peels should come off. #cooking #food #garlic https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/372/283/999/895/536/original/213c683dd5cbf37b.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael All of a sudden, Gboard's predictive text sucks. Every time I get an update from them it seems like something has broken or just been removed. Remember the days when the software experience got better over time? Those were good days... #google #complaint npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1u7l…spje I think that's where the name comes from. All the old volcanoes look like piloncillo. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael What web server do you like for FreeBSD? I started out with lighttpd but I don't think it's a good fit for me. I'd like to have user homepages and looking at the documentation, the lighttpd folks are focused elsewhere. They provide a module to do this but most of its documentation is about how using it is a bad idea. Can you recommend a light weight httpd that might be better suited to a home network? Thanks! #bsd #freeBSD npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1u7l…spje Thanks! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Piloncillo mountains, #Arizona #geology https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/361/872/675/458/852/original/8c5ae783a6ad2aff.jpg npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub15tc…8jdf those are gorgeous!

I knew a guy who made mesquite cutting boards. They turned out beautifully but the wood was so hard and fibrous. That each piece required a fair bit of profanity to produce. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub12ra…dvtx That's beautiful! There's something about the surface of wood that's been turned on a lathe that is just really cool. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub189v…3lra I never actually beat Portal 2... So I had to go look it up. 😅 Good song though. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael One of the kids just beat Portal. That's great but now I have Still Alive stuck in my head. Ah, well... It only took me a decade to get rid of it last time. #videogames #portal #music https://youtu.be/Y6ljFaKRTrI npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1z5l…5ycy That's cool! Thank you for the id! I guess that means this stone must have come from a long way off. The mountains in this area are almost exclusively basalt and welded ash flows. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1d6n…m959 I'm so sorry! I got hit with that last year. It was gross. Luckily for me mine was benign positional vertigo and I was able to get it resolved. I hope yours is gone in no time! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1hvv…at39 Exactly! When I told them New Mexico was older than Mexico I just got a blank stare. 😁 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael Just had a weird memory come bubbling up. Maybe 20 years ago, I was on an overnight bus from Barcelona to Madrid. Around 3am a couple of CNP officers get on the bus and are checking everyone's documents. I got "detained" for almost half an hour. Not because I didn't have the right visa but because they had never encountered someone from the US who spoke Spanish and wanted to know all about New Mexico. #España #NewMexico npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1gss…6tjx 😊 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub13k2…tw0p I had good luck with Jaramillo's Plumbing and AC back when we lived in Socorro. But, that was 20 years ago so ymmv. 😅 npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1gss…6tjx I was super grumpy after getting gassed out by a huge truck on my run this morning. Pictures of flowers are just what I needed. Thanks! npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael @npub1zw2…2aln Google killing another service? No way! After buzz, wave, allo, G+, inbox, stadia, etc, etc, you'd have to be crazy to sign up for a new Google service even if they weren't a privacy nightmare. npub1998jhnyjklrh9uzf2vcj7v70eejs65qgqh099d8lfwjqu3l90lss6v2gte Rafael This tastes very like a mild herbed cream cheese. But after eating a bit of it the fact that it's mostly just whipped coconut oil starts to make me feel a little ill. #vegan #food https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/112/266/919/176/323/730/original/e4a67fc6ffd0332f.jpg
