I see all this talk about various #StarTrek series and movies (including unofficial ones made by fans). I honestly have not watched most of them and probably would not if I had the opportunity. Why? I’m a normie who liked #STTOS, #STTNG, #STDS9, but never learned Klingon or wore fake Vulcan ears. The original movies were garbage (ST:Generations was okay), but the first of th…

Actually, I can see where they can create additional stories within the same universe. I just haven’t seen any signs that they’re interested in doing that in a way that is of interest to normies. Sorry if you’re a Trekkie and you think I’m wrong. For a Trekkie, I *am* wrong. I just think they need to decide whether to make a series of series and movies for regular peo…

Received my determination letter from Cal-EDD. Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation is approved.

@vaeringjar We’re just hearing about the impending shutdown of GSNO. Is there any chance that you’d be willing to transfer it to another GS Admin to keep it running?
I’m in the US, so I can’t control a .no domain, but maybe we can find someone in Europe that would be willing to do so.

@samir No, it has been for a while like early adopters of sorts.
!loadaverage will have it enabled next week.

@samir Sure, they have nowhere to run :-).

Backlog Leads to Staggering Number of New Cases in Collin County Friday; Denton Adds 2 Deaths Finally, some answers! Collin County flushed a big backlog of cases left over from the system upgrade from weeks ago. Yikes. https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/coronavirus/backlog-leads-to-staggering-number-of-new-cases-in-collin-county-friday-denton-adds-2-deaths/2426309/

Vague reporting from the Dallas Morning News leaves the mystery of Collin County's leap from ~200 cases per day to almost 1200 cases per day. What caused this? https://www.dallasnews.com/news/public-health/2020/08/14/dallas-county-reports-885-new-coronavirus-cases-weekly-average-on-the-upswing-after-recent-declines/

As I understand it, @amic@nulled.red is leaving Tulsa #OK tonight, heading for Columbia #SC, abandoning lots of stuff in the process.
Best of luck on your trip and in South Carolina.

@amic@nulled.red has made it to #AL already.

Someone told me that there are indoor fans that come with water cooling ... sort of like a miniature version of a swamp cooler. I think I should go look in Lowes or Home Depot ... if it can help keep a bedroom from breaching the 75F / 24C barrier then it is worth it.
Our indoor relative humidity is about 19—20 % at 94F, so it should help.

From COVID19Tracking https://twitter.com/COVID19Tracking on Twitter: Texas testing data seems to have rebounded from very low numbers last week. However, the state has not provided clear answers on what is happening in its reporting systems and positivity calculations. Read more here about what we can and cannot know https://t.co/Vf6vzZv1IR
-
So ... ... this happened today in Collin County, TX. For days, increased testing has resulted in about 200 cases per day, double a few weeks ago. Today: 1175 cases. Please let it be testing. PLEASE. (Won't know for 3 days, as test reporting lags case reporting) https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1294407579616137220/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/67046

I also wrote in the Friday department newsletter, "Try to take a breath in the next 9 days. The University is making constant demands on all of us. Trust in your teaching. Trust that youve got this, because you do. And dont forget to breathe." https://blog.smu.edu/smuphysics/2020/08/14/physics-department-friday-newsletter-for-august-14-2020/

In our Friday newsletter, I wrote to our faculty: "[Unchanged by] COVID-19 is the thing I, personally, value in any setting: the trust I have in all of you, the instructors who craft and lead our courses, to deliver what is needed in this difficult time." https://blog.smu.edu/smuphysics/2020/08/14/physics-department-friday-newsletter-for-august-14-2020/

Speaking of hockey fights. I used to watch #NHL Los Angeles Kings games on TV when I was a kid. Until someone gave a local non-profit some tickets, so they put some teens and preteens on a bus and took us to watch.
It seemed like all they did was fight. I stopped watching hockey and never went back to it.
-
Early in the Anaheim Ducks’ life (as the Disney-owned Mighty Ducks), I considered taking #sonTwo to see a game, but prices were out of reach, so hockey stayed out of my life.

Another co-worker passed. This was one of the better supervisors I’ve had in my time in the agency. She had battled cancer and won twice before. It came back one last time and took her out. One of her sisters also works for $EMPLOYER.
Sad to hear it. RIP.

I have a couple of traditional schemes that I’ve used for desktop & laptop hostnames, but this laptop has always been an exception. This one has always been either an animal name or a woman’s name, and it has always started with ‘S’.

Covered in filth. Going to take another shower.

Oh, this is a really hot ???? day to be moving a stack of stuff, so we can remove a dead kitten.
-
Dead kitten retrieved. It isn’t the white-looking one that I expected. It also seems much bigger than the others, perhaps because it swelled up due to decomposition.
Still to do: capture the surviving kittens, so we can make sure they are healthy.
