Toroidalcore @ToroidalCore@mastodon.social

It's been great here on mastodon.social, but I will soon be migrating to the land of hackers.town. Thanks to fediverse technology, hopefully it should be a smooth ride. In case if doesn't, and you still want to follow, I'll be @toroidalcore@hackers.town.

I will probably keep this account instead of deleting it, but probably won't use it for much.

Happy #caturday!

I just realized I haven't used content warnings before. Seems obvious, just want to make sure it works the way I think it does.

This morning there were three hawks hanging out by my pool. I noticed two at first, and then the third joined them. I'm not sure why they were there, but I did see one a few months ago before the pool was open. There were a few inches of water in the cover and he was bathing in it, so I wonder if they were thinking they could do it now. It's a little deep for a casual bird bath though.

My brother, his wife, and their two daughters are now gone for the weekend. It was a little outside of what I'm used to, considering that it's just me and George, but it was nice seeing them.

I even got one of my nieces playing a little bit of bass, which she enjoyed.

And now it went out for a minute, then came back on.

And, the lights are flickering. There is a storm about to blow through, and possibly more after it. Need to move a UPS solution for my server up the priority list.

My cat is doing that thing where he lays on or in front of my keyboard and attacks me when I try to do any work.

Professional display is over. Now more amateur fireworks.

Now the pro display started.

We found a spot now to watch the official fireworks, but the activity in people's yards is making this sound like a war zone.

Driving around (not me) with my parents, there are lots of amateur fireworks displays. They'll probably go all night.

I'd heard he played it a little, but I don't think I've ever listened to him on electric, will check it out.

I do remember coming across this pic, though...

Pleasant evening at my parents' place. It's cooled off, and there's a nice breeze.

I was in Home Depot the other day, and there were lots of birds chirping inside. I understand that they can be a nuisance, but the sound was kind of a nice touch.
