I'm not sure, there was a ton of light pollution where I was at. It was all over the sky in every direction and moved around.

After it started getting dark. It was very vivid around 10:30ish to 11:30 or so. I went to sleep after that though, so it might've gotten brighter. I was checking periodically earlier but wasn't seeing anything til it suddenly became visible.

It shows the space weather forecast. I think it was G4 last night.

Does it come off with a magic eraser or elbow grease?

Weird, I would probably get a noncontact probe and see if there’s power, then cut power and see if there’s something behind the drywall.

Is replacing a tub/shower combo DIY'able

Homeowner with a decent amount of handiness but wondering if I’m going to bite off more than I can chew. Is it worth it to try and remove the old shower tub combo and replace it with a new one pretty much by myself? I realize this is a bit of a loaded question and can’t really be answered without knowing my skills but if...

Is this your only shower? I’ve done a DIY shower and it took forever, so be prepared for it to take longer than expected.

Update: went yesterday for Wonka and the choco popcorn was still great. Seats were verrrry comfortable.

Gold Bar resident says clerk’s shirt is ‘crossing a line’ as some feel unsafe in grocery store ( www.kiro7.com )

GOLD BAR, Wash. — In Snohomish County, some residents told KIRO 7 they feel unsafe going to their local grocery store. Over the weekend, controversial photos of a cashier at Gold Bar Family Grocer appeared on social media. The photos show a man with a KKK shirt and a loaded holster checking out customers....

Kinda understandable given its location downtown. It always seemed pretty empty.

About time! I was always surprised the MyOrca app didn’t have support for it.

There’s already enough ads inside our publicly funded ferries and terminals… this is just overdoing it.

The fares get raised every season and we pass laws to increase ferry funding for worse service, yet there’s still a need to shove these ads down our throats? The service is objectively worse than it was a decade ago, but it’s more expensive beyond inflation. Maybe I’d be okay with these ads if the ferries were dependable and I didn’t have to pay an arm and a leg to use them.

Also the fact that Seattle has both a soda tax and advertisements for soda. Seems a bit contradictory.

Apparently there’s a bunch of folks OK with plastering ads on our Seattle icons. We should just wrap Mt. Rainier next in some Coke ads.

I think it’ll be the LCM’s spiritual successor, but I guess time will tell.

Saw this yesterday! Very cool to see in-person, although I do worry about its longevity.

What’re you doing? I’d recommend Mikrotik, since you can do just about anything on it for cheap. It does however have a significant learning curve.

tl;dr version: the ground is settling and risks flooding. They will be closing the tunnel between Capitol Hill & SODO but will have a free shuttle bus between the stops every 10 min

Maybe next will be the Living Computer Museum

moving to Seattle

Hello all. I have landed a job in Seattle. I wanted to know your input in finding a place to rent in Seattle. I learned from Reddit that I should avoid Tacoma. However, I’m looking for more tips on how to find a place and how far from Seattle is too far. As a follow-up question, how to find a place not very expensive that is...

near a market where groceries are not expensive

Look for WinCo and a Grocery Outlet.

If I were working in Seattle, I would avoid Tacoma just because of the long commute. Traffic on I-5 can get so backed up around Tacoma and Fife (if they’re driving).
