It's just after noon, and already I'm inadvertently closing tabs I need to keep open.
Wednesday is fired.
Get in Babkans and other fedizens, we're doing Wednesday, which is the start of the second week of 2025.
We had doughnuts this morning for breakfast, but I promise I've been exercising every day since the year began.
Also, I'm living dangerously this morning. I almost spilled coffee all over my keyboard. Definitely a much bigger adrenalin rush than I needed but I guess I'm awake now.
We have groceries coming later this morning, and other than that it's the usual Wednesday chores.
Have a good one everybody.

Man I just love it when Microsoft Office screws the pooch and I have to spend time repairing it.
Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating. John and I are going over to his brother's house to hang out and eat with the family later on, and then I'll light the menorah after we get back home.
OK it took 2 plus hours, but the beer finally made it after 2 this afternoon.
Pizza and beer for lunch. Because we can.
I haven't read through the linked paper completely yet, but uh this seems bad.
New Research Shows AI Strategically Lying
Lol there's a pile of candy in this house and there's more on the way.
Them: "We have new read-aloud voices!"
Me: "That's great, really it is. There are people using your site for whom this feature is surely helpful.
What would be even more helpful to many more people, though, is if you would work on improving the accessibility of your site by employing plain old, no-frills, semantic HTML, which would allow the largest possible number of users to use your site with less friction and frustration while at the same time requiring less work from your development team and therefore less cost to your business when it comes to both up-front work and maintenance costs."

New phone is set up, and I'm waiting on things to finish syncing.
