The SF/F/H convention-going community has fretted for years about the "graying of fandom." The average attendee age is drifting ever upward, foreshadowing an imminent mass extinction ...
I dunno. If my own hair is anything to go by, past time to start calling it the "whiting of fandom."

Great article from Scientific American on why, 13,200 years ago, big animals like saber-toothed tigers, lions, and dire wolves suddenly stopped falling into LA's La Brea Tar Pits .
"[H]umans likely pushed the ecosystem over the brink by killing off herbivores, which allowed the vegetation that served as wildfire fuel to proliferate just as the climate was drying out anyway and left carnivores without prey."

The young woman vampire who just gangpressed me into a waltz, just asked me "Hey Jonas, do you know how much blood there is in a church mouse?"
Jonas paused, and had a moment of internal "haha, I'm in danger!", and says "No, how much blood IS there in a church mouse?"
Vera gives a huge grin and leans in to whisper... "Not enough!"
Nothing says “club facing a relegation battle already” quite as much as this sort of thing. Not exactly an inspiring replacement either. It’s going to be a(nother) very long season. Mind you, I’m not clear how we can be in financial fair play difficulty when other clubs spend more freely and apparently are not? Are we just that badly run?

So, my largest carpenter ant colony wants me to mail this letter "to the orcas" and "don't read it" -- uh... I want to respect their privacy but... IDK about this one. #ants #orcas #uhoh #antvideos
When asked why passport e-gates across the UK aren't working (causing huge queues at airports) a Home Office spokesman said, it was "too sensitive to say"
if you hop on your egress device and run `tcpdump -n -i $external-device port 5353` do you see a bunch of zeroconf mDNS traffic for devices that aren't on your network and never have been?
i am seeing plenty on that link and none of it are from or about devices actually on my network. my other place is using Comcast's CPE and i don't have interactive shell access to it.

Uh oh. Nothing says "let's rehearse for tomorrow's set" quite like the tip of a cable breaking off inside your main piece of gear

Dr. Robert Rohde: "This is getting ridiculous. OISST provides a real-time daily index of ocean surface temperature (60 S - 60 N). For the last month it has been continuously reading higher than in any previous year and still shows no sign of settling." #SSTs #climate #wx #uhoh

Binky and Amelie are in trouble now that Circe has claimed them.
I'm sure they'll get out of this peril eventually. Give them an eternity or two.
Also, Wendy, because she was there during the kidnapping. Poor unlucky torture toy.

Alright. That was highly dangerous. I had a technician here to repair my oven. Whenever I switched it on, my (not fuse, but something measuring leak current? Don't know the english word) goes out, and my apartment is without power. It was supposed to be fixed now. So I made myself a Pizza. Five minutes later, no power. The Homelab was not shut down.
But everything came up again? It seems?
I think there is a hurray in order for my storage layer, Ceph.

The ICT departement was extremely happy with how the mail server migration went. Not a single mail was received complaining about problems.
