Every time discussions around changing clocks for #DST come up, an argument is given that it messes up people's sleep. I always marvel at this, my sleep is bad enough year-round that I've never noticed any effect whatsoever from changing clocks.

@matt I made that switch a few years ago, but eventually gave up on it because it broke so much of the web :(

@ethicsperoxide First reaction: "oh I misunderstood, the kiddo is starting a *job* at a daycare". Second reaction: "oh, no... No."

@kline Pretty smart approach! Hope everyone does that

Backing up photos and noticing a strong increase in pictures of our #cats while the girlfriend was abroad. Also many of me making dumb faces. Gotta have some material to send her every day

An hour spent reading wiki pages on #nuclear #fission and accidents led me to this cool phenomenon I hadn't heard of yet. About 1.7 billion years ago some uranium on earth started a natural fission reaction that lasted for a few hundred thousand years. No worries, they don't think it can happen naturally on earth any more 😜

Feel like I've heard more Dutch on my trip to Slovenia than I usually hear in Brussels. Popular tourist destination it seems!

@karlos I'm no expert, but do you need https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.slice.html#method.iter_mut perhaps? SO is pretty good, there's also a rust forum https://users.rust-lang.org/

Personally I'd probably go for SO.

Update as she returns: got the queue down to 82 episodes, 68.5 hours.

Was helped along by hurting my ribs in a bike crash. This left me unable to run for a week, making me go for long walks instead. I don't listen to podcasts when running, I did while walking.

@Tak I have used this approach to good effect in the past. Can recommend.

I've gotten lazier the past years though. (Or perhaps less adventurous?)

It is the fun that never eeeends. The IRC drama surrounding freenode continues on and is beginning to look more concrete?

@labellaragassa USA, she figured rather than waiting for one in Belgium, she could get her vaccine there. Also wanted to finally see her family again so is combining those two objectives :P

Home alone as the girlfriend is in her home country for a month. Is this the time I can make a dent in my 162 episode, 117 hour long #podcast queue?

Probably not.
