Maybe they just have a thing for looking at muscular bodies? I certainly do. I also like looking at female bodies, which I learned outside of gaming.

the VFX may be dated, but it's still one of the few sci-fi shows that understood how space psychics - thrust, inertia, gravity, etc - worked. Had some engaging plotlines, too, that stretched across many episodes.

Hah, I definitely feel the second statement. There was another of those "vibe" surveys last week, and I scored them very poorly on the "likelihood to recommend working here".

On the other hand, I have survived three or four layoffs already since I've been there many years now. On the gripping hand, I have too many bills and plans for both 2025 and the future, that I don't think Unemployment would be enough to support them (and my savings is nearly depleted).

Even so, folks will have severance and guaranteed employment until the end of March.

I don't know how stressed I should be. On the one hand, I am on a team that it integral to all the games we distribute/support, and my direct bosses appreciate what I do for the team.

Happy Wednesday, here's an anxiety spike.

There will be a restructuring at the company I work for, and the president of the company used the term "meaningful layoff" ... but we won't know who's going to be cut for about two weeks.

I read Iron Widow a while back and loved it. I believe there's a sequel I still need to read.

This is my usual bedtime, but I hope you catch some Z's soon.

Does anyone who use reading glasses feel like you need to reset your eye muscles, after using them for a while?

Got a few snowflakes on my tongue, looking ridiculous of course.

Not down here. :'(

Seriously enjoying this book. I think I'm almost 3/4 done, and I don't want it to end.

Made a cable sled, so I can drag it under the crawlspace to run some network there. Might need to add a flexible, like sheet metal or durable plastic.

@opaquegorila.bsky.social the book in question.

I've read that one already, which is why I picked this one up. There's also a sequel to Psalm that I have, and need to read.

This is one site I found, but it didn't know about that tag (crowd sourced) - tagdef.com/en/tag/EastC...

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet (Wayfarers, #1) Librarian's Note: For an alternate hardcover edition of…

Read about 90 pages in my book last night, while having a dinner at my local BWW (including a nice cheesecake as dessert). Suffice it to say that I'm hooked on it. The sci-fi nature of it, with interstellar travel and multiple non-human species, is very intriguing.

I just saw / overheard one driver apologized to another, presumably about being a little road-ragey earlier. Nice thing to see.

Cutting some hardened steel with a Dremel, and I liked the way the sparks flew out in slo-mo.

Sploot!

Are they 3d printed in place?

ah, yeah. Nasty stuff.

Ah, true. I think only the first couple episodes involved the Doctor, but they had two seasons (iirc).

So it was an April Fools? They should've waited a day or two longer, since he's not even sworn in yet.

Uranium in the glass?

I've heard of ground.news which prides itself at giving you news from multiple sources, but also showing what bias those sources tend to have.

Don't forget about UNIT, or Torchwood - human run organizations to handle which threats when the Doctor is unavailable.

I suppose I should it make a post here or something, to let folks know I have this account. Should probably update my avatar, too.
