Time to try this new game I got recently that I had been meaning to get around to... Huh? That can't be right. I think linear time is malfunctioning.

Surprisingly, @dereklowe.bsky.social 's otherwise informative article about ClF3 neglected to mention the dental hygiene use cases. I'm sure it's great at cleaning up plaque: www.science.org/content/blog...

I'm shocked that it's still only at 90%, and hope it makes it across the finish line. Supporting Techdirt is a worthy cause, and the game should be fun. I was hesitating to bring out my old copy of "Grass" to play with the family, and this looks like a good spin on the "Mille Bornes" mechanics.
Alright folks, I apologize in advance if I'm going to be annoying about this, but TODAY is the LAST DAY to get us over the Kickstarter threshold for our game, & people last night were telling me how they only just heard of our amazing One Billion Users card game. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mma...

I'm glad to see that Android XR is finally public, and very happy to see WebXR support being called out specifically. (I feel I've contributed to this a bit by prodding people to talk to each other...)
Hey, and I can finally update my profile to mention what I've been working on :-)

I spent an afternoon demoing Android XR, Samsung’s Project Morgan headset, and prototype smart glasses.
I felt like Tony Stark with Gemini as my Jarvis.

#breadsky Sourdough, 50% white / whole grain (wheat+spelt) mix. It's been helping keeping me sane (and the family fed) since Mar 2020 when I got a fresh batch of starter from a co-worker.

A nice view of the aurora, though my aging eyes don't see nearly as much color as the cell phone camera long exposure.
