Anyone interested in learning/playing Go this weekend? The Davis/Sacramento Go Club is adding a regular weekend meetup on Sundays 11-3 in South Land Park. We meet in the upper lounge of the Raley's on Freeport (4690 Freeport Blvd). More info on our other meet-ups on Mon, Wed and Thursday is at https://baduk.club/club/davis-sacramento-go-club.

Go is over 2,5000 years old and believed to be the oldest continuously played game today. It's quite easy to learn the rules, but is considered more complex and more difficult to master than chess.

I have two first row tickets for the Los Angeles show. I don't want to sell them, but I also want to buy Twitter. So, if you have stupid money and want to go but your assistant couldn't land you tickets, now's your chance!

Wire transfer is the only form payment I am accepting.

I was able to make the purchase--at least I think I was, I got a receipt email. But whenever I try to look at my purchases page on Vimeo, it says "Technical Difficulties."

Has anyone been able to purchase and actually start watching? Did the release crash Vimeo?

I currently have an XB6 Gateway, and think I have a dead ethernet port.

Until recently I was using one port to connect a network printer. I just purchased a Synology NAS, so I now need to use the second ethernet port; however, nothing connected to that port shows up as a connected device. I can connect either the NAS or the printer to the original port I used, but neither one will be recognized using the second port.

The router is not currently set up in bridge mode, and the "Associate Ethernet Port 2 to XFINITY HOME Network" is unchecked. I'm not seeing anything else in the gateway's administration portal that might indicate a way to enable/disable one of the ethernet ports.

America’s Bacon Reserves Are at a ‘50-Year Low’

About a year ago I bought a low-end Trek bicycle for my commute to work. Since that time, I've been riding 3-4 days a week, putting 10-15 miles a day on it. In that time, I'll break a spoke on my real wheel every 6-8 weeks or so.

Is that normal?

I'm using it to commute, so I have panniers with a change of clothes, bike lock, repair kit, lunch, anything else I need to transport back and forth. On top of that, I'm fairly heavy (6'3", 260lbs). On the other hand, my route is all paved, not rough terrain.

I bought a low end bike because I honestly wasn't sure if I would keep up the bike riding, but if anything I've been getting more consistent over time. So my plan had been to upgrade by buyin

This Washington Post article discusses a Smart Growth America report looking at trends in pedestrian traffic deaths over the past decade. Florida really needs to get it together, but the only other California city in the top 25 is Riverside. We can do better!
