I'm GenX, a child of the cold war. "Tradecraft" is what spooks and spies do. It's espionage and poisoning enemy agents and infiltration and shit.

So what the fuck?

He's adequately square, but the dumbass that set him didn't quite push him flush. Most hotel showers have this problem. Sorry not sorry you will see this in every hotel room ever now.

I didn't think he would really do it.

They got big this week, even with the freeze in Denver. Every chicken thrived, I wrapped the little chicken hut in a moving blanket, wrapped again with a tarp, and put a little lean-to of a tarp over the food and water for the two day storm.

They are getting too big for the medium pet carrier, in about a week I will have to put them in the regular coop.

The weather in Denver is so nice and they seemed like they were so bored in the garage that I put them out earlier than I planned. I can always put them in the garage if we get a freeze. They are fully feathered so even freezing temps shouldn't harm them now. I'm out here at dusk because they don't know to go in their kennel at night and I'll have to pick them up and put them in, like I did last night.

The little garden fencing is to keep them separate from the 3 year old hens I already have, if you keep the different flocks apart so they can see each other everything is better when you want to bring them all together. The old hens were big mad when I brought the new pullets outside yesterday, making all kinds of noise and puffing up near the fence to show dominance. They will get along eventually and I'll keep the pullets segregated until they get closer to the same size. The garden fence is going to go around our raised beds this year because we have a lot of rabbits now, Mr F

Basically title. I want to control a bare metal debian machine on a separate monitor (that always has this debian machine) from my windows gaming machine.

Edit: it's called Synergy and the apt package is called deskflow. I'll try it later and see if I can make it work.

Six new chicks for our backyard flock. These are three weeks old, today is the day I introduce the roost area which is a medium pet kennel. They will stay here until about mother's day because that's our typical last frost in Denver. The only other addition now will be netting on the top of the whole enclosure so I don't have to chase an escapee around my garage

edit: It's a baby pool that hasn't held water in at least 8 years, I keep it stashed behind the regular chicken coop. The cardboard is called "ram board" and used to protect floors on construction sites, I just take some scrap. The kennel is on the right, it's sitting on a milk crate so it's the same height as the lip of the pool. Ramp is just a piece of wood with a scrap of carpet stapled to it. Ramp is held in place with a spare allen wrench dropped through a hole in the ramp into the hole that latches the crate. Feeder is screwed to that 2x4 otherwise they knock it over. Waterer is filled with "chick boost", that s

Standard apt-get update and apt-get upgrade broke just now and it was typically easy to fix. dhclient didn't bring up my wifi card so I plugged it in to bring up the network card, quick dpkg --configure -a didn't return anything so I just did apt full-upgrade at the recovery console and that fixed it.

I love Debian (and linux)

I've used a towel style bath mat for decades, I think it's the most hygenic. It goes on the floor to shower, then gets hung to dry between showers.

I lay floors and hadn't seen a "permanent" bath mat in years but ran into one today. It was that typical shag rug style, bright pink. This was a clean house but it was strange to me, I didn't think anyone used those anymore.

I'm a big fan of naltrexone, I take it daily. I've stopped drinking dozens of times but naltrexone made it stick.

Ho. ly. shit.

I guess, whatever? Let's fucking do this.

.world c/news didn't like this so maybe it fits better here
