Indeed -- Mount Desert Island (home of Acadia NP) had a small one just this weekend!

And we had a M4.2 one there about twenty years ago when I was living there.

Anyone see an easy way to add the sound-on setting to the URL options generated by "Copy Permalink"?

I don't understand how anyone thought this was HN-worthy, but the old 25-year-old me living in Cambridge thanks you for your mental hiccup.

Any Nethack veteran knows this can happen to you if you try to read a cursed spellbook.

What's your go-to ~$70 radio? I have a couple of Baofengs but you get what you pay for with those.

All my times visiting NYC I never saw a rat.

All my life living on the river around Boston I saw them all the time. And man they were the big ones.

I have added nothing to the discussion.

I was at this show, and it was just as enjoyable as you'd imagine.

Turning up the volume a whole lot can help a mediocre guitar player sound somewhat competent.

This does not apply to drums.

Ligma/Johnson.

And they were taken seriously by the assembled press.

I love this recipe, I'm so happy you made it available. I have made it multiple times. I might suggest you let potential chefs know of possible increased gastric activity with fermented foods, especially ones that like to give you painful reminders on the way out. But I'm sure as hell not submitting a pull request for that :)

The amazing part to me is that Pan Am didn't just have them land in Miami and relieve them with a fresh crew. Story is way better the way it's told, though.

A warning to those of you who easily cry: this piece will do it to you.

I just built a new office PC for my lady as a holiday gift. Most components were pretty fairly priced but I paid way more than expected for a Ryzen CPU with the integrated Radeon graphics near the price point I wanted to keep the build at. It's still a great build compared to what I'm replacing but that CPU markup was a shock, and I'm happy to not have to add a GPU to the mix.

Left New England for Texas. Good luck with your search.

Field across the road used to be a blueberry field, and one of Wyman's huge freezer facilities is a few miles down the road, along a now discontinued rail line.

Now its a high school. Ahh, goodbye nice friendly traffic pattern, I miss you.

I think I know exactly the town you're talking about.

During my time Downeast I was told I should cut down the wild berry bushes we had growing all around our driveway every autumn. Hell with that, said I. Next year, with no berries, I figured they might have a point.

I figured a bunch of only children would reply here.

I spent 4-5 years playing Avalon Hill wargames alone (Panzer Blitz, Squad Leader, 1776, etc.), trying to play each side's strategy as accurately as I could. I don't know if it made me a better tactician but it certainly threw open the gates of historical curiosity to the point that 12-year-old me knew more about WWII than my parents.

Regular 87-octane gasoline has dropped almost seventy cents per gallon in price in central Texas since this madness started. Oil producers in the state are getting squeezed hard right now.

I like to call this the "Martha Stewart Rule"

I have rejected my lawyer’s advice to not make a statement

Oh this always works out well.

It certainly was broadcast live -- every major TV news organization in the US broadcast the re-entry. Of course Columbia was very high altitude when it broke apart and the cameras (fortunately in my opinion) couldn't get very close-in shots.

There's a point to be made that people were more prepared for a possible disaster given the reports of damage to the shuttle that the crew provided days ahead, compared to the absolute surprise and shock at Challenger, and the horrifyingly clear camera footage provided at a lower altitude.
