Something at Clackamas County Fairgrounds today caused miles long wait onto highway 99E
Looking north, you can see at least a 1 mile backup way past Fred Meyer entrance.

Looking south where the entrance is, but you can also see a line heading north that's backed up--like about 1 mile!

To be clear, the reason to focus on DEI is to make your business more effective and profitable! Diversity on your team isn't some kind of charity, it simply broadens your perspective. Groupthink isn't some new fangled concept.

Am I allowed to rebook my flight if spacex is planning on flying/sploding on the day of my flight?

Got a new trackball to review. Looks like a Porsche compared to my trusty VW. For over 25 years I've used the regular 'expert mouse'--which I have to say I still prefer. Though this new 'slim blade' looks way cooler. The scroll feature is very well implemented too.

Shocked to learn my photo speeding ticket turns into a warning because I was driving my wife's car.

If you must use a mouse (personally, I'm a pretty diehard trackball user), Kensington has a new vertical mouse they sent me (trying to entice me away from their Expert Mouse?)--long battery life, comfortable, accurate. #ergomouse #kensington

AI is great but what could be so hard that it can't use real words when imaging text? Seems like that should be easy.

Prediction: Landslide loss for Trump. Maybe I'm in a bubble where people aren't nuts, but I'm sticking with this prediction. Also, I'm happy with everyone thinking Trump will win as that should motivate turnout.

I don't get how this incident helps Trump. His rabid supporters support him the same, his haters hate him the same--perhaps more considering how many immediately think it's fake.

nope isflashinstalled.com/ though, honestly, it'd be nice to have a device around to reminisce once in a while. I knew when I was building much of that, that my great grandkids would never be able to see it, but still.

Am I the only one who patches bicycle tubes by applying cement to both the tube and the patch and waiting until they're both pretty much dry, and then affix? Not sure where I learned this but I do believe it's the best way.
