I only wear mine while on a plane β the environment is sufficiently hostile that they can't make it worse.

The "IoT" version of the dash button is still available, but it's $15.

I guess the question is whether Netflix is generating the graphics or the movie producers supply varying content targeting different demographics.

Re:UCSD Pascal pioneer Ken Bowles has died

I used UCSD Pascal quite a bit during my undergraduate days; my school (UC Irvine) had bought a bunch of (I think) Terak boxes for the computing center. I ended up getting the UCSD-Pascal card for my personal Apple ][+, hooked it up to a 24x80 CRT (because programmers always need large displays), and that allowed me to do my homework ... at home (I know, amazing)! I owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. Bowles for being such a good evangelist.

Tomorrow (March 9), the sun rises at 6:05 am in Pensacola. This bill would have it rise at 8:05 am. A couple of months ago it would have risen, in their new found EDT life, at 8:46am.
It's weird, given that the panhandle is solidly republican, that the GOP dominated Florida legislature wants give those folks a ~9am sunrise. They are probably very lucky it's not likely to happen.
