Come on man. There was a run on a bank. The Feds shut down the bank. One of the bank's directors complains that the bank was fine and didn't need to be shut down. You take the bank director's...

The short answer is yes - maybe even better - but it’s pretty unknown and we like it that way. My friend & I have had a boat there for over a decade, and 99% of the time we’ve been the only boat...

Never mind. We decided it's too much boat for what we need.

It was fun looking it over, though. The builder, Ritchie Howell, is a friend, so he flew out to meet us in Cabo and look the boat over....

The boat's in San Jose del Cabo. It's maybe for sale and my fishing partner and I are maybe going to make an offer on it. We just went to Cabo for a day to see & run the boat. Lots of maybes, but if...

I went for a ride on this rig today. 62 foot 2010 Ritchie Howell with giant engines. She hit 44 knots. Total beast.

I can only think it was too dangerous to install them. Or they were happy for it to sink

It’s off the reef! And they didn’t drag it very far. Apparently it sank in the channel between Maui & Molokai!

Doesn't look like the race for first place will be very exciting any time soon ...

You were in Isla? Catch some sailfishies?

A week later and it's still there. Here's a pretty good Youtube video talking about the current state of it:

The owner wasted a few days with mickey-mouse efforts to pull his wayward yacht...

It's windier at the airport right now than the summit. Top to bottom north (aka cold) winds, single digit temperatures forecasted to drop through the day. Wear all the clothes.

post-close bombing this afternoon. That's not common.

Now I want to change my avatar.

I don’t get it. Iguana butterfly whip?

Sleeper day! It's not too late to get out there. Crusty underneath, but knee deep up high and decent all the way to the bottom.

Git some!

We're Clint C. wannabes. Took up kitesurfing. Mrs. Suit and I went to Hawaii last week to avoid the minus 20.

Our kids have been here most of the winter, working remote. We ski in the morning and...

It looked like its normal self yesterday morning.

Does anyone else remember the Crazy Train winter? There was a tram op who played Crazy Train pretty much every ride. It was at least 15 years ago. Maybe 20.

Ever since then, Crazy Train has been...

Holy shit! I assume he lost power. Not a good place to lose power.

I just saw a headline on Apple News - "The Enshittification of TikTok."

I didn't read the article or anything, but I really like the word enshittification, so I'm requesting that everyone here try...

Nice! Ty was lead guiding the 212 program, so we didn't get to ski with him this past trip.

I was there with my family over new years. The food this year is the best it has ever been. Dinner still takes forever, but it was tasty.

Even with this season's stability issues we still got to...

FWIW I had a non-displaced TPF in my early 40s, so almost 20 years ago. Unlike you, I had no associated ligament damage, but I have had zero lingering issues from it. Maybe the arthritis is coming...

Not yet. The MIT/Commonwealth Fusion team is pretty confident that their SPARC demonstration reactor, which is currently under construction in Devens, MA, will exceed breakeven in a couple years.
...

It's a big deal because they made huge strides in that last step over the past year, but it doesn't mean that commercial fusion energy is around the corner. The energy loss in the lasers is just one...

If your son can't figure out where to ride in Moab and is relying on daddy to ask a bunch of random idiots on the internet, probably should just stay home

Thanks for the responses. I'll pass them along.

My daughter and her boyfriend are planning to drive to Jackson Hole from the Bay Area tomorrow, if possible. Is there a less sketchy way to get across the Sierra than I-80? Or should they just wait...

Still not sentient, but holy shit ChatGPT is amazing!

Incorrect.

There was a 2008 study by the US DOE that said the US used approximately 6.63 Terawatt-hours of electricity every year for "decorative holiday lights." That same study suggested that if...

Neal Stephenson's latest novel "Termination Shock" covers just this topic.

Your father is a treasure. If he keeps writing emails like that, you need to save them to make a book.

At heart, a consensus mechanism is about economics, and in particular, it's about imposing a cost. For proof-of-work, that cost is the cost of computation, which I suppose is about physics. For...

It's truly amazing how rapidly he's filling in the "Complete Clown" side of the ledger.

I just watched the Zion highlight reel. Yeah it's only one game and yeah he needs to get through a whole season etc., but he sure looked good.

And they dislike income taxes.

I picked up both of these just this week!

I guess the joke's on me ...

Quid pro quo for Coinbase moving to Google Cloud Platform. GCP struggles to win any business from Amazon Web Services, so they have to sweeten the pot to get deals.

Meh, in other words.

Has anyone else gotten into them? I just got one this afternoon and went for a couple mile pump session. It was so fun! I can't believe I didn't get one years ago.

I got one of these:...

Where are you flying in from? Flights from Denver often fly over the Wind River Range, then Togwotee Pass and down the Buffalo Valley into Jackson Hole. You’re at altitude for much of that so it’s...

Prevailing winds are from the southwest, so arrivals usually approach from the north and departures leave to the south. The super-amazing jackpot view is from the right side of the plane on a normal...

I just had a look at the PredictWind forecasts and it looks like Iceman-land could see 3-4 days of tropical storm level winds starting tomorrow some time. Gnarly.
