    KeyHero

    This is a very clever idea.... wonder how well it actually works? Anybody try it? I suppose it also opens up the possibility of a hacker getting your keys though. ;) https://www.mykeyhero.com "KeyHero makes it easy to create a digital backup for your key. Just scan your key at any Home Depot...

    The end of iTunes

    I have plenty of complaints about iTunes, and they seem to make it worse with every update, but it's still how I share my media library throughtout my house with about 600 movies, 600 TV shows and thousands of songs that are stored on little server. That could get a lot more difficult without...

    Permethrin ads

    Have been seeing ads for Sawyer's Permethrin all over the place recently. What a "coincidence"... I just posted about Sawyer's in another thread. ;) Is it just me, or do these images also bother you? A guy is apparently heavily spraying his pack out in the woods in a manner that implies you can...

    Older than I thought....

    I must be getting old, because I completely forgot that I made this map back in 1882. :D https://www.loc.gov/item/88693457/

    Cook's Map of the Pines HD

    I'm finishing up a new historical map that has been a fun (but complicated) project. It's based on the 19th century George H. Cook / C.C. Vermeule topo maps from Rutgers (these are the same maps available here at NJPB: https://www.njpinebarrens.com/historic-maps/topos/george-cook-1889-topo-maps/...

    White deer

    This morning, somewhere around here - @Spung-Man country! :) https://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.47933394843349&lng=-74.87697220529208&z=15&type=topo&gpx= There was a car stopped in front of me and the deer was standing right next to it, so maybe it's tame and people have been feeding it...

    American Express system problems

    Tried to use my Amex card at Lowes this morning and it was declined twice, had to write a check. Called them right away and the automated system said to expect a long wait so I hung up. Made me wonder if it was a problem with their system... Called back just now, and sure enough, they were...

    Boom!

    I have seen this phenomenon on the weather radar in different locations several times recently and finally got a screenshot this morning. Don't remember seeing anything like this in the past, but maybe I just missed it? Perhaps it's a change in the radar that shows this kind of thing now...

    How to become a YouTube star

    Another reason not to like YouTube (not that I needed one). Now you can buy fake views of your fake news. Apparently $14 will buy 1000 fake views of your video, plus a bonus of 100 "likes". But how do you find people who sell fake YouTube views? It's simple, because their ads appear on...
