Well THAT's cool. I was just talking about getting back into model rocketry... I'm not sure my 6yo daughter will like it as much as I did/do but I want to get back into it and launch a few and see if she's into it. Timing here is great as I need to start looking at starting from scratch with kits etc.

I bought my son a Estes kit about 10 years ago. He's now at University studying aerospace engineering as a direct result. So you never know!

...wow.


Seems longer than 10 years ago? But hey... Let's Encrypt absolutely changed the game... TLS and certificates were a huuuuuge PITA and expensive... we only used them when money was moving around online and they were slow most times. It was also a process to add one, update one, etc. I remember not trusting it at first because it was so easy lol. THANK YOU Let's Encrypt... you made us all more sane, saved time, and secured us all up too. Firm handshakes.


Thats what I thought when I read this too, I feel like they have been around forever.

Guess a lot has happened in 10 years.


"WordPress plugin quirk" AKA human error (as usual).


Yes, the human error was using WordPress.


I had to laugh out loud at this (by myself).

The amount of requests I get on my servers for WP related files is insane


they really should. i thought they'd have a flag on the actual profile.


Good. BYE. lol.


The mighty penny is dead. Long live the penny!!


is that why chatGPT always tells me "6 7 lol"? ;)


Going to date myself a bit here but way back in the day (early 2000's ish) we had to pay a LOT of money to get a zipcode database lol. Early ecomm and site builds sometimes needed em and man was the data rough. This is cool but just took me down memory lane a bit.


WELP..... that was a fun run. Probably switch back to chrome at some point.
