Looks like the USPS shut down the covidtests.gov at 8:00 PM EDT on 3/9/2025, per text on the website.
I'm feeling somewhat fortunate in that I got my order placed and received in the last couple weeks.
If they had too many tests stockpiled, better management and allowing people to order additional test kits seems like a better choice than destroying good tests.

I'm not a font expert, but I like #GNOME replacing Cantarell with Adwaita Sans. Cantarell is more distinctive, but I find it distracting. It feels of a time, specifically the 2000s decade, along with Microsoft's Verdana and Tahoma. The new one seems more timeless and utilitarian.

The more I travel, the more I adore dead zones in Germany (especially on the train).
The train is one of the rare places I can work without distractions (or the possibility of procrastination). My writing is a lot better here…

I have to go to the bathroom, but I also have to finish this damned article.
I suspect that if I get up to go to the bathroom, I'm going to get distracted by 200 other things and not finish writing.
Also, it will disturb the cat.

"Many professions can be recognized through dress codes. Doctors and nurses wear aprons. Police officers wear uniforms. Tennis players in Wimbledon must dress in white. Astronauts wear space suits. Dominatrices wear black latex catsuits. The Swiss Guard in the Vatican wears the same outfit since the 16th century. Soccer players have matching kits. Wolverine fights evil in yellow spandex. Software developers wear the t-shirts they got for free at the last conference."
