Last week I tipped a friend off about an upcoming job opening that would have us living in the same town. The boss sees their resume tomorrow.

O Mighty Potato, grant me this boon.

Got lost; didn't mind (thelemmy.club)

Took a wrong turn yesterday and didn't realize it for quite a while. Stopped here to get my bearings.

Encountered these big boys while exploring a local bike trail. The photo doesn't do them justice.

Attended the 40th anniversary screening of The Voyage Home in San Francisco tonight.

Nick Meyer was there to answer questions, and was honored by the City of San Francisco with a mayor's certificate for his movies featuring San Francisco.

I cleaned out the junk drawer and found a bunch of Starbucks gift cards that I've received for various reasons over the past 15 years. I used one from 2015 today and the barista was mildly surprised and asked where I got such an old-style card. So I told him about the junk drawer.

The tame tank would randomly appear in lieu of a regular tank. This tank is not aggro to the survivors unless they shoot him first.

He does still charge toward the survivors, but only because he's so pleased to see them. This unfortunately is indistinguishable from regular aggro tank behavior, making it hard for survivors to know.

If he manages to get close to the survivors without being aggro'd then he'll just stand there chilling with his new friends, roaring in happiness.

In cases where two tanks spawn and one is tame, tame tank will attack aggro tank to protect the survivors. Insert confused aggro tank noises here.

If the survivors manage not to aggro the tame-tank and the escape vehicle arrives, they take the tank with them and name him Keith.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

The Verge reported that CEO Sundar Pichai defended the layoffs and claimed that workers sometimes reach out to express gratitude for the cuts. “And I just want to clarify that, through these changes, people feel it on the ground and sometimes people write back and say, ‘Thank you for simplifying.’ Sometimes we have a complicated, duplicative structure,” he said, per the Verge.

Chalmers: People send thank you's for lay offs?

Pichai: Yes.

Chalmers: May I see one?

Pichai: No.

Of all the things you could reasonably criticize the US over, wheelchair accessibility ain't one of them. Especially compared to Europe.

If your business can't survive without paying slave wages then your business shouldn't survive.

Littlejohn is charged with one count of unauthorized disclosure of tax returns and return information and faces up to five years in prison if convicted.

He should have violently stormed Congress instead. You only get like 3 months for that.

I have no sympathy. Companies that require class action waivers and mandatory arbitration clauses don't get to complain when thousands of people file arbitration claims simultaneously.
