PBS and NPR have long been my go-to sources for news. Very much in the classic "who, what, when and where" vein. Editorial content is small, segregated and usually includes advocates for both sides. Blissfully boring and informati

I spent much of this afternoon playing xNetHack[1] on Hardfought[2]. My first exposure was 30 years ago to a DOS port laboriously downloaded from a dial-up BBS. No web, no documentation, no wiki[3]. And I've loved every minute of it...

My introduction to jumping spiders was as a child on a long, boring drive in the back seat of a Buick. One emerged from somewhere down in the door and crawled onto the glass. When I moved closer it would back away. When I moved back it woul

When I was a kid my dad gave me his war surplus radio. He had been a communications officer in WWII. It was a huge metal box with a separate speaker. Inside it was full of tubes, wires and other stuff. I knew nothing about it so I turned it

I have my lynx set to accept all cookies (makes for far less bother) but somehow seem to have forgotten to tell lynx where to store them. Logout of the browser and "poof" they all disappear...

Mama Sally died when I was an infant but I have a studio photo of her. Parasol, large flowered bonnet and full length skirt. All very Edwardian from the early 1900's. As for the features, I look far more like her than my wife. Perhaps

My wife and I experienced this when my father died. We visited him hours before his death. He looked up at my wife, smiled and said "Mother, you came!" For the next while she sat beside him, rubbed his brow and engaged in small ta
