“We obviously really care about rightsholders and about people,” he (Altman) said.

No, no you really don't care about them, Sam Altman. If you did, you wouldn't be doing the majority of what you've been doing.

We hit hard freeze criteria in a lot of northern Wisconsin, effectively bringing an end to the growing season up there.

A hard freeze is defined as when the temperature gets down to 28°F or lower for at least an hour.

Top-10 lowest temperatures in Wisconsin on October 8. Temperatures range between 22 and 27 degrees.

I wonder what we could get for Tarik, Greene, and Tork.

Burn it all down and let’s get back to the Tigers that lose 100+ games a year.

No referral needed, you should be able to get one anywhere. Should being the operative word.

That’s poor operation on the part of ProVax then. I’ve had problems with their scheduling system 3/3 years.

Chris Vagasky @coweatherman.bsky.social · 14h

I’m confused by them running out, because you had to schedule yourself for it, so they had a list of people and numbers for Covid shots.

That’s poor planning on their part if that’s what happened.

The website didn’t ask whether I had one or not, just said I was ineligible. Called Walgreens and they scheduled it for me.

I called the Walgreens and they scheduled me, not sure why their website wasn’t allowing it.

Was scheduled for flu and Covid shots on campus @uwmadison.bsky.social today, but when I got to my scheduled appointment there were no Covid shots.

Go online to Walgreens to schedule and it says I am not eligible.

Did everything change overnight once the CDC released their updated “guidance”?

Nice fall weather today, so we’re getting a lot of work done.

Visiting a few sites for fall maintenance and planning out web development work for the fall and winter.

I don't want to use gen AI, but this would be a good case for having it draw the Justice Department under a microscope with Pam Bondi standing on top of the Justice Department.

Weather radar lets us see more than just precipitation!

When large groups of birds and bats take off, they can create roost rings as they spread out into the air.

We can also see masses of insects flying around, wind farms, and even transportation.

Which do you see in this radar loop?

I wouldn’t be a supermoon hater if we called it “full moon at perigee” and it looked this big the entire time, instead of only at moonrise and moonset.

A couple roost rings this morning as birds take flight in Dane and Green Lake counties.
