I am getting soft(er) because I have a hole in my abdomen and can't get surgery until the end of January. That means I mostly shuffle around and eat too much.

Nobody uses KM unless they're pro cyclists because they travel to europe where everything over there is KM

here in 'MERICA we use god drat miles.

Also tell him he needs to up his cycling game, those are low numbers

gently caress the entire concept of podcasts, Back from the used bookstore expedition.

Using the term expedition because several of the outer buildings have no heat normally, and there was zero heat in a few sections of the other buildings.
Temperature outside was a brisk 9 degrees, and the unheated areas managed to be colder than that.
Found some Vernor Vinge books that usually never appear, David Drake's Hammers Slammers, and grabbed a copy of the fascinating & horrific "Japan at War: An Oral History" because the copy I lent out to someone got pet-mangled.

The “I’m not driving” thing on my iPhone makes texting while driving much harder. I just want the auto text sent so I have an excuse to not respond I don’t want to have to click extra boxes.

True.

Unrelated to that music:

I really enjoyed watching this performance while pretty lit last night.

I'm one of the weird dudes that prefers silence or light music playing while I'm driving.

Went to that cold-rear end bookstore looking for the book that Get Carter (Michael Caine version) was based on.

The book is supposed to be way more brutal.

If anybody in the US is familiar with meters and kilometers it should be people that were in the military, it's like the only distance measurements we use.

BMW insists on using metric units for everything in their technical documents (and German for all their acronyms and wiring diagrams). They gave me a 20-120 Nm torque wrench when I graduated STEP.

I'm in a weird hellscape where we use km and meters all the loving time, but also NM and kft and m/s and knots and mach and wtf?

Engineers, army dudes, and aviators had a massive fight, I assume, and the end result was that I now have to know it all.

I loving love this time of year.

It’s the time of year when you find out how poorly insulated the house you’re renting is and you realize there is basically nothing you can do about it, except for buying more window insulation and door draft stoppers.

I can’t wait until I buy a house and can just insulate it and fix it up the way I want to.

Vasudus
May 30, 2003
My apartment is well insulated, but the collection of units I'm in have a shared gas/water bill. Fortunately the families of 8, 10 and 13(!!!) have moved out, which makes the water bill a lot cheaper now. But it doesn't prevent the people upstairs who leave the patio door open all day/night to smoke from running their heat at full blast all the time.

We're stuck in that lovely weather pattern where it's sunny and 35 all day. No moisture so no snow as a distraction. Just low-angle sunlight looking 50 but hovering just above freezing. gently caress this state. :(
