Ivanova is always right. I will listen to Ivanova. I will not ignore Ivanova's recommendations. Ivanova is God. And if this ever happens again, Ivanova will personally rip your lungs out.

Goodbye, Mr. Chips Ahoy!
I wasn’t able to make many #pota contacts today, but one of them was W1AW/0 so I’m going to call it a success*. They were operating out of Colorado this week as part of the ARRL’s America250 Worked All States award for 2026.
*I figure even if I don’t make enough contacts to officially activate the park, I’m still out in nature so it’s always a win. And despite what you might think from the name, the Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge is a peaceful and lovely place and a haven for birders.

@jonikorpi @ivory @alex And it lets you insert photos from Photo.app on the Mac, which so many other Mac apps don't let you do!
@lcamtuf@infosec.exchange That's OK, since most of my followers are also AI! I figure eventually it'll just be the bots talking to each other while I read a book with a nice cup of tea.

@novalis @mjd @christianp I would be remiss if I didn't mention this sequence. It's unsatisfying since it ignores a stop that breaks the pattern. https://oeis.org/A007826

@rjbs@social.semiotic.systems Amen to that! I had this ridiculous "desk" chair in a hotel room a few years ago. I'm not even sure if it was designed for humans.
