Oh. I also had to replace a deck board while I was at it. Good times. Good times.

We took a short trip with the kiddo, but came home a day early as none of us were getting sleep. So I finally had time to deal with a bit of a rot problem on our deck. It took the standard 3 extra trips to the hardware store. I'm mostly amazed I was able to do demolition without causing more damage. The bad state of the wood helped quite a bit. You could tear a lot of it apart with your bare hands. I'm glad I got it done, but there's always more to do. Buh.
Attachments:
- Top of support post that has thoroughly rotted. The hand rail is exposed. (remote)
- The backside of the post. It's a little tough to see, but the rot continues down the post. Mushrooms are growing off the post. There had been more earlier, but I had brushed them off. (remote)
- A view of my deck from the back with the section of the hand rail tossed to the ground. Watch your step! I hadn't yet removed the problematic post. (remote)
- A view of the deck after I finished rebuilding the section I demolished. It is now probably as safe as it ever has been. (remote)

- three pencil portraits drawn in a simplistic style, each with poorly justified text beneath it. the first is a wizard, captioned 'Deivirile: This is Wysard. He befriends Henry during our story and they become lifelong friends. The Deivirile taught humans about chemistry, biology, botany and medicine.' the second is a stoned white bigfoot, captioned 'Goutaus: This is Gootaus'. the third is a more hippy looking but less stoned bigfoot, captioned 'Grott: This is Grott. He has an energy shield surrounding and penetrating his entire body making him immortal. Posessed of a gregarious sense of humor makes him fun to be around.' (remote)

Know a teenager in the U.S. who wants to get vaccinated—for anything, not just COVID-19–but whose parents won’t allow it?
https://www.vaxteen.org/ exists to help them out. There’s resources for both trying to convince the parents and state-by-state information for speaking authoritatively with medical staff about their rights. In some states the age of medical consent to vaccination is 13!

Anyone out there run AROS/Icaros Desktop?
I've always been curious about the whole neo amiga scene, but I've always had a hard time diving in and the documentation is a little impenetrable to me.
Any good resources for beginners?
Boosts welcome.

Have never played it.
Mastodon FeedI wonder if/how it affects biking when the popular map apps either don't provide biking directions at all (Apple) or provide very incorrect directions (Google) here.
If you're familiar with the area I guess you don't need directions, and there's paper bike maps to be had for free (but who uses those anymore,) but it's a university town with people from many different places.

Mastodon FeedI think everyone I know with a Switch has had controller issues, and it hasn't even been around for long. As far as I can tell there were no class-action lawsuits over NES controllers breaking for everyone, and those were definitely a thing in the 1980s. I guess some lucky USian Switch-players will get $2.14 and some lawyers will get a few million because of this.

Mastodon FeedHow come NES controllers almost as old as me still work but these 2 year old Joy-Cons are going increasingly bongos. At least the regular buttons should be as durable, but they're not.
