Adtech-ing into the void.
Doesn't this basically mean two dead from flooding?

Might as well rewrite the headline to blame the deaths on energy from the sun which drives the Earth's weather.

But it's 3P cookie deprecation that's killing news.

(I know I'm being obnoxious but that's a shit headline; a complete joke)

I bet you in their reporting it says that this unit served into a 728x90 placement.

(Because someone bought the 300x250 impression and then resold it and iframed a 728x90 placement into it...I mean it *is* technically a 728x90 placement! No fraud!)

Time for some gonzo reporting.

Did a little urban exploration with the kids this morning. There is an abandoned narrow gauge railroad in forest park (used to be a zoo ride). We walked quite a bit of it and found two working railroad switches!

Beautiful morning for a fun adventure.

Another season, another art class. This is an ink and watercolor class. First class was just practicing line work, watercolor. Plus I made some colored pencil swatches as a doodle.

I definitely don't work in whatever industry I ought to be in order to understand this gibberish.

At cafe yesterday w 4yo twins.

At some point, daughter starts talking to elderly woman in wheelchair.

My mom uses a wheelchair, so daughter is interested in them.

Later woman is wheeled away and daughter waves goodbye.

4yo son turns to me and says "Soon you will be old."

The End.

Well...I disapprove.

My first experience was when my mom and dad went to see Alien when she was pregnant with me! 😂

(True story; my dad loved to recount this anecdote)

I guess I'm glad to know that the latest D-grade Alien sequel is available to stream, but this branding is really off. Why should the Disney logo ever appear next to a drooling xenomorph?

"Consultans." That's wonderful copy.

I can just picture the Consultan now: resplendant in his silken finery, unfurling for the client stakeholders a great woven Gantt chart, decorated with precious jewels and the most delicate of project dependencies.

TIL that apparently I can't use Photoshop to generate a 100% transparent PNG? In other words: an empty image where every pixel's alpha channel is set to zero.

It just...won't let me export.

So f*cking dumb.

I didn't really have a first computer per se, but my dad usually had them around for work. One of the more unusual ones was a ridiculous briefcase-style "portable" behemoth I remember playing with.

Like this (but I don't remember a keyboard being attached):
