Dear tech sites. Don't fucking call it a "Raspberry Pi rival" if they're not working to introduce programming and electronics back into the national curriculum.
Who's ready for Field Day this weekend? #ham

Doing a little experiment.
Retweet this if you identify as male, and you’re perfectly okay with using strongly feminine-gendered bathroom products (shampoo), even if it’s pink and sparkly
It may not be your first choice but you’d use it without complaints if it’s what you had
Nissan delays release of longer-range 2019 LEAF due to arrest of Carlos Ghosn, now former CEO
I have a bad memory for faces, and a worse memory for names. Please don't ever be shy about coming up and saying hello if I don't seem to notice you.
I may ask you your name again. It's not you, it's me.
Ah, the uncertainty after changing your direct deposit arrangements. Which account will get my payroll tonight?

I discovered that there is a very important difference between 'sgdisk -R /dev/sda /dev/sdb' and 'sgdisk /dev/sda -R /dev/sdb'
the latter replicates the GPT disk layout from one disk to another. ideal for rebuilding a software RAID 1 array.
the former creates a blank GPT layout on the non-failed disk, thus destroying the array. less than ideal for rebuilding a software RAID 1 array.
So yeah. There is no confirmation or error checking. thank goodness for backups.
Open source CPU. Pretty neat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8jqGOgCy5M

You can put pineapple on your pizza.
You can not put pineapple on your pizza.
I really don't care. It's your pizza, not mine.
HOWEVER if you demand that *no one* puts pineapple on their pizza I'm going to assume you're a f*ckin' douchebag.

Petrichor, that fresh aroma you can smell after the rain, is caused by a little molecule called geosmin. The name literally means "earth smell." It's produced by soil bacteria and gives an earthy flavour to beets.
Humans are extremely sensitive to this scent – much, much more sensitive than sharks are to blood. Some think we evolved that way to find fresh drinking water after droughts.
What a cool idea. Reusable bamboo drinking straws. https://smile.amazon.com/Drinking-Biodegradable-Handcrafted-Alternative-NATURALNEO/dp/B07CS7HRSH/
