Not wanting the job is a good thing. That's how it should be...

There is a lid in this photo, but I've opted to keep the container open for the first few days to encourage wild yeasts to settle in. Once the fermentation starts picking up I'll transfer to another container. I'm following Sandor Katz's fast and loose recipe from The Art of Fermentation...I expect to learn valuable lessons or reap unexpected rewards. Or maybe both.

A backpack and some paracord can be an effective solution. Learn a few basic knots and find some spots you can attach to...you can have a secure bag on the bike and a comfortable bag off it.

This is what happens, Larry!

There's one of these interchanges at the junction of Rt 59 and I-88 in Naperville, IL...historically a notorious junction. It was and is a bit strange to roll through intermittently, but anecdotally people in the area seem to think its improved traffic flow. It does catch unfamilar drivers off guard, tho, especially during off-peak hours when there isn't much traffic to follow.

Not a dev nor a privacy/security expert, but if you've had issues with system updates breaking stuff, I'd steer clear of Fedora and roll with something a bit more stable and consistent, like Debian or Ubuntu LTS releases. The 6-month system upgrade cycle is pretty onerous with Fedora.

I was gifted that game and between my rapidly falling temperature and hunger and my poorly coordinated attempts at stunning baby rabbits, just gave up about 15 mins in. Is it worth it to give it another shot? I've tried twice now...

Very normal. The Loaf is also a pretty common cat pose.

There could be three, four, seven, or twenty parties and you could vote for the candidate that best represented your ideals and they could stand a reasonable chance of being voted into office if we would just embrace ranked choice voting.

Kirk himself was mentioned in B-Boy Bouillabaisse from the epic 1989 album Paul's Boutique.

I dig the styling and pricing of those REs, but my mechanic warned me that getting parts from India can be tricky or take a long time.

I've been riding for 3 years. About 3 months in, I grabbed my front brake after the car in front of me slammed on theirs. I went down and broke two bones in my foot. If I hadn't been wearing all the gear, things would've been much worse. If I had more experience, I probably wouldn't have crashed at all.

Start by taking the MSF beginner; it'll get you on the right path in terms of skills and good habits to learn. Don't stop there, though...take the intermediate and advanced courses too. In some areas, the classes are subsidized since they go a long way to reduce meat crayons. However, don't think that just because you took a class or two that you're suddenly invincible.

Wear all the gear all the time. Even when its hot. Even when its a short ride. All. The. Time.

Practice on every ride. Do some slow, sharp turns. Do some emergency stops...at the speeds you ride, not just at 25. Once a week hit a parking lot and spend time doing weaves and swerves and turns. Replicate the exercises you did in the courses you took or the books you've read.

Watch tons of videos: Dan Dan the Fireman, MotoJitsu, Fortnine. Pick a few faves and watch em all the time. Read some books: Proficient Motorcycling by David Hough, Total Control by Lee Parks, Sport Riding Techniques by Nick Ienatsch. Watch every rider you see: pick out the things they're doing well and the things they're not doing so well, and apply what you see to your riding. Immerse yourself.

Lastly, recognize that almost every motorcycle accident is due to rider error. If anything bad does befall you, its probably your fault. So stay humble and work on your skills and never let your guard down.
