Ha! I read the following Science new article just today about how Purple Only Exists In Our Brains. It's written for a younger audience (I think), but it lays out how our sight works, and how our brains trick us into seeing purple (a red-blue colour, as opposed to violet).

Poor shrimpos, no purple for them, I bet.

I've been concerned that we might get a giant influx of Americans, who have more purchasing power with that strong USD and would price Canadians out of any and all housing. Plus building aggressively like this is a good stimulus to the economy. Let's hope it works.

we've instituted Analog Sundays at our house. No screens of ANY kind. No computer, no tablets, no tv, no phone. Books, boardgames, sketch books, musical instruments. It makes for a great brain reset and lowers those cortisol levels a titch.

I just tried DRL (Drone Racing League) on Steam and did the tutorial. It's fun.

I've always had an interest in photography, so that might be my entry point. As I said to Dearche in this thread, I just tried a drone racing game and that was fun. I'll keep at it!

I just tried DRL (Drone Racing League) on Steam. I started with the tutorials. Good fun! Thanks for the suggestion.

That was a great piece. Thank you for sharing it.

Yeah, I'd deleted my Reddit posts and then my account in November. I was already irked at what they did to their API, and then the Orange Dingbat got elected and I decided it was enough.

Later on, I went back, but only to lurk, but since many of the specialised subs require that you join in able to read posts makes it pretty unusable at this point.

I miss the old Reddit; I was there for over a decade. But here we are, building a new place for ourselves.
