~what happened 2u today

[HighStrike300]

Finally, some progress is made for TEDNE.

[Wesley]

Just a week ago it was frozen and mushy. Today was warm enough that I opened the sunroof. Did some handyman work outside.

[Moe]

It hit 60 the last two days now back to 40 for the next week or so.

Also, newsflash. I always kinda knew this but today cemented it in, if it’s night time AND raining outside, I literally cannot see more than 6 feet in front of the car. Yay astigmatism, light just spreads out blinding me anyways, then the water in the road and stuff just makes it impossible for me.

[Wesley]

Dang. Is it both eyes? Have you tried polarized driving glasses? Not tinted, obviously, just clear and polarized lenses. Here in Pennsylvania it rains quite a bit, and we have a lot of traffic.... so the lines on the road get worn down and marred by tire debris and whatnot. So when it rains, the lines all pretty much vanish. Not a ton of fun for new drivers or old.

[Wesley]

Got a new monitor for my setup. I've been using trailing edge tech for a while, like adapters to use the digital output with VGA and stuff like that. So now I have a monitor that works with the sweet graphics card I have, and I was not ready for it! Even things like the smooth transitions as I sweep between tabs... very nice. Of course, right now I am mostly playing Jump King, which has 16 bit graphics, ha haha!

[Wesley]

Going to see a show with Ninja and BoGZ. Have not seen a show since the pandemic started. Should be fun. Martin Barre was the guitarist for Jethro Tull.

Finally, the programmer of TEDNE finally come. Some progress was made now.

Pretty much. It’s mostly the lights blinding me or my headlights shining back at me from the rain

[Wesley]

In Pennsylvania, there is a convergence of rivers and older mountain ranges that leads to some interesting weather patterns. On Saturday, it rained in the morning, then was nice at lunch, then very windy after lunch, then nice, then it snowed these pea-sized fluffy snowballs before dinner, then after dinner it was nice enough that I had a little bonfire at my friend's house.

Today it was warm, then it got very windy, then some powerful rain that made Baki hide under my bed.

Fun and exciting!

Yesterday was April Fools

[Wesley]

I deleted 100 accounts for SPAM, disapproved 50 more. Almost all Russians. It was really annoying because instead of one account making many posts, each account only had 1 post, so I had to go through all the motions each time I wanted to get rid of a user.

I am going to cut down a dead tree today for my friend's mom.

[HighStrike300]

Something super ultra hyper extreme terrible happened to me...

[Wesley]

Sorry to hear that. Hope everything is ok.

Yesterday... or the yesterday before that? Anyway, I cut down a couple of trees and power washed a house for my friend's mom. I am not the young powerful man I used to be, and my body is sore all over, ha ha ha!

Yeah I just signed in today to 142 notifications of more
what a spam wave, right when I joked about (but did not do) removing the CAPTCHA, as Clarence was using it as one of his excuses for not being here
It's because I resisted the urge to ban russian IP addresses back when..

Also,
A lot of them were from the same IP address, go into purge users, search the IP of one of them, then check mark box the spam ones


*Update?
Umm, Zotty boyo? I just looked, there's 43 pages of new users between now and the beginning of april

Brings my total deletes today to 1250

[HighStrike300]

I got a bad mark in my exam... it is a super ultra hyper extreme pain...
I got punished by someone...

[Moe]

Also, I banned like 3350 IP addresses

That's good! I wont need to see disturbing p**n posts every day. Thank you Moe!

[Moe]

There will be more. All the IPs I banned were from either Russia or a Tor node

[Wesley]

That house that I washed the other day? Over the weekend I spread 40 bags of mulch in the flower beds. The goal was to get it looking very nice for the family to come for Easter dinner. Job well done, but I have odd and persistent muscle fatigue now, ha ha ha! The joy of getting older, HA HA HA HA!
