I remembered to check the daylight savings time switchover. 5 November. We’re still in EDT, so 7PM EDT. That pathetic success tempts me to once again attempt to post the time in UTC, which I believe would be 11pm, but I know perfectly well that I’ll screw it up. This one is for the West […]

I give up on time zones. I just plain give up. The urge to provide the time in UTC or GMT or some normal, conventional Standard Time Unit reoccurred today, but all my efforts in that direction have spectacularly imploded. SPECTACULARLY. I have been working as a writer for nine years now, and time no […]

It’s the peak of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and I sincerely hope that you are out doing something interesting rather than hanging out online. Video hangout attendance has been down, which I take as a positive sign, but soon enough the cold will return and folks will huddle up to their screens again. But […]

I hope that y’all are having a fun-filled glamour-packed joyful summer and don’t have time to hang out with me. But most of you are computer folks, so I know better. Plus, it’s hot out. We melt. Instead, join me for an hour of snark, surl, and sarcasm with a possibility of rat. Michael Lucas […]

Folks, I apologize. I overslept. I haven’t slept past 10am in years, but it’s been a rough week. I’m moving the hangout to next Saturday, 17 June, 10am EDT. Same link, same everything, different day. My sincere apologies. Share this:TwitterFacebookMoreRedditLinkedIn

It’s summer for most of us, so I hope you’re all out doing exciting things in fresh air rather than lurking in your homes waiting for an opportunity to hang with me. This hangout is closer to the May one than I’d like, but evening and morning tends to draw a different crowd. Except for […]

I try to give more than a week’s notice for video hangouts, so I can’t do it this next Saturday. BSDCan falls in the middle of the month, taking up the next two Saturdays. That means the next time I can do a video hangout is at the end of May. I also try to […]

I have not one but two video hangouts this month: one with you folks, and one as the Devotion & Corrosion release party. Fortunately y’all are pretty easy to get along with. Unfortunately, Penguicon happens smack dab between the two. I shall have to conserve my people juice or I’ll run out and go feral. […]

CORRECTION: I go into Daylight Savings Time next week. Thanks to FO for catching that there was a problem! We’ve had multiple folks confused by time zone math, which makes perfect sense because I can’t do it either. On the last call, CM brought up everytimezone.com, which does the math for you. Time zones were […]

Hanging out online. That’s what we do, this fourth year of 2020. This month it’s in my morning, so the Europeans can easily join. If you look at this month’s Sausage post, you’ll see you have extra chances to do that this month. Lots going on this Triple Threat February. I’m not entirely sure how […]
