it’s easy to get numb to the drumbeat of articles on climate change with the same dire message that we’re nearing a point of no return and five minutes to midnight before “…fast running out time to avoid the catastrophic collapse of the natural systems on which human life depends.” and you forget that that message is as close to a generally accepted conservative scientific consensus as we’re going to get. out on the edge, the scenarios are much more dire. it’s terrible to imagine what we’ve done even if the truth lies somewhere in-between.

newton the magician
“Keynes had eagerly collected Newton’s occult manuscripts all his life and he stated the situation in a very stark way. He said that Newton “was not the first of the age of reason. He was the last of the magicians.”” UNSTART
day 3467: max and mia moroz enjoy hot chocolate with odin and his already well-worn jersey.
odin doesn’t get to see max and mia very often because they live waaaaaaaaaay far away in the foreign land called Venice, California but when they do they always get along like they’re best buds.
odin is apparently never taking off his christmas red wings jersey.
Mia The Creator and Conqueror of Snowmen.
shortly before enjoying hot chocolate with odin and his already well-worn jersey mia was braving the kind of weather you just don’t see in venice, california.
On Hacking MicroSD Cards
the discovery that microSD cards are hackable creates the possibility of dirt cheap and ubiquitous of microcontrollers ( even cheaper and more ubiquitous than the popular arduino platform ). one would assume the nsa has probably already been exploiting the vulnerability from eight miles away ( or via drone ).
Manufacturing Consent

day 3465: odin carves his initials in the table before eating one of america’s best burgers at stella’s lounge.
if you’re at stella’s lounge in grand rapids, michigan see if you can find odin’s initials on one of the tables. GQ magazine rated their fare as “Best Burger in America”.
i had the “mr fables” with green olives, blue cheese & swiss cheese, and while it was very, very, good ( and i recommend you go have one if you have the chance ) i have to admit the burger i had at the burger joint in new york city ( thanks to a hot tip from jason kottke ) might have been a better burger.
@snowdeal If you're looking for a lunch out, try Burger Joint, hidden behind a curtain at the Parker Meridian. http://t.co/YjXlYp3sxn
