@lorigracewx I'll definitely check it out when I get home from work tomorrow.

Alright that was fun. Tomorrow morning I'm releasing this storm chasing tier list video for camera lenses and focal lengths. It applies to other cameras like Canon and Nikon even though I'm a Sony shooter. Tamron and Sigma lenses are included.

@ariah_wx Hopefully you're feeling better soon.

welp, went from rsv to (not allergies) influenza b 🥲

@ravikiran_dev7 Open a terminal and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y (this will update the system for you). I would also include sudo apt-get install aptitude -y, but that's just my preference.

I am a window user and I just installed Linux for the first time. What should I do next?

@vibeonX69 RedHat Enterprise 4.0. Or whatever their last free version was. Then, Fedora, and after that Ubuntu/Debian based distros.

What was your first Linux distro? -Ubuntu -Linux Mint -Kali Linux -Something else 🐧

@kmcnam1 Or their employees are always quitting.

@lorigracewx I'll definitely be interested. Especially if it's for DSLR cameras. I've got a Canon EOS Rebel that I'm looking for good lenses for.

Working on a camera lens tier list for storm chasing. Anyone interested in watching the video? I hope to finish it up by tomorrow.

@TracketPacer I have to say, the original Macintosh made me hate Apple. LOL I was used to the Apple ][ series and their OS. When I tried my disks on a Mac and it didn't work, it turned me off to Apple products.

so i bought the macintosh LC

@Erin_Kwx A favorite flower for your mom and maybe something that your dad loved, surrounded by clouds and lightning?

I graduate May 9th with my bachelors in meteorology. I lost my father to PC on 12/14/16 and my mother to MBC on my 26th birthday 02/18/2025. I would like to do a graduation cap design that somehow involves weather and a memorial of my parents. Any ideas? Their last photo 🩷

@Oceanbreeze473 Fuck. That's where all of my 10mm wrenches went.

First thought?

@dubsinfive Are you alright? How bad was the wreck? Can you still drive the vehicle? And if not, did you get a ride somewhere safe yet?

dude i just got into a wreck two hours away from home and so i called my mom and told her and she said “of course you did” like okay. yeah that totally helps talk me out of a panic attack. thank you so much for believing in me as a person 🥰

@CyberRacheal C ARP. "Address Resolution Protocol".

Which protocol operates between the Data Link and Network layers (Layers 2 and 3) to map a constantly changing IP address to a fixed physical MAC address? A. DNS B. DHCP C. ARP D. ICMP

@uhf_satcom I remember it as a DOS command...

I know you've probably never seen an original but here is the 80s equivalent of WinRAR !

I feel this, except I'm 55.

@Eman_8282 And you're drinking good beer.

Is my age an problem? I’m 52 born in 1973

@kmcnam1 I'm assuming the Chrome variants like Sidekick and Comet will put them back in, somehow.

@tornadopaigeyy Unless you see @ReedTimmerUSA driving by. Then it might not be a good day to be that cow in the pasture. LOL

Being a cow in a sunny pasture full of green grass must feel incredible

@dubsinfive Which phone?

i love the battery life on this phone man like wdym i can leave my white noise playing on my phone all night when it isn’t even at 100% and it’ll still be above 50 when i wake up delightful

@lorigracewx @CRyanMauk @NaderChaserRob open.spotify.com/playlist/5vQEW… It's not 100% his playlist because I may have gotten albums wrong. But it's all of the songs.

@CRyanMauk @NaderChaserRob Solid, but I wish I could import it directly into Spotify since i don't have Apple Music.

What's your storm chasing playlist? Share it in the comments! Recently I chatted with @NaderChaserRob and we got into the importance of listening to music on the road. Of course I had to fangirl about Pink Floyd, but Rob shares a little more. Rob's playlist is in the comments:

@lorigracewx @ShaneMuckey @NaderChaserRob I was an Octane fan until I got my current car. It didn't come with SiriusXM, so I either had to use their app or Spotify.

@ShaneMuckey @NaderChaserRob Yes, Ch 38/39 pretty much. I could deal with a little less Pantera though. Don't come at me haha

@lorigracewx @NaderChaserRob open.spotify.com/playlist/6IJCE… A few of them came from @ayyeeruckus but I've added more to it.
