Make that "two-decades-old" at least for a Land Cruiser ;-)

I love this. Sometimes we humans are so batshit crazy trying to build that next-big-mega-thing... and here we have an easy-to-use map of forest sounds, and it just works. Kudos!

THANK YOU for this! It's been a while since I've laughed out loud while reading an article on the web. As an owner of an ancient Land Rover, I feel this, physically.
Excellent writing.

Re:Microsoft announces Windows 11

I work at a company where the majority of the employees complain about every new version of Windows, some rather aggressively. They resist adoption until the last possible minute. Then when they upgrade, what do they do? — continue to use Windows to make cool stuff so our company continues to grow and, in reality, persist with the same exact workflow they had the week before... it just looks a little different. Then the complaints die off, and, well, on to other things....
Until the next version of Windows is announced.
Re:Portland’s Disgraceful Anarchy

A friend of mine manages a large business on the outer edge of Portland. He pulls into work early one morning to find a couple of the homeless living in the community behind his office dragging a decent amount of power tools into the vegetation of the greenbelt. We're talking weed-eaters, chainsaws, etc..., that type of stuff. All rather expensive kit, organized and arranged in a very methodical manner, maybe 20 items or so. A call to the police results in a transfer to a third-party mediation team, as the police can't directly interact with "campers" in a situation of this type. There are several articles out there commenting on the "legal quagmire" that are Portland's policies dealing with the homeless community.

Latest T460S. My first non-Apple laptop in years. Super tiny, super fast and solid... ESC key. You know, luxuries like that.

If I could only view this through my skinned IE 5... I never thought I'd be nostalgic for this, but I am.
