Lots of good reasons geocaches shouldn't be buried. I'd have reported this one.

I find this take fascinating because, although I also like watching athletes and sports, I see the fandom and names as a huge soap opera cast. I just can't keep up with any of it, the names, the injuries, the rivalries, the trades. It's all just a bunch of banal meaningless drama to me that I will never have the enthusiasm to track. It's all the same old shit from season to season with a rotating cast of hot young fools, just like General Hospital. As such I can't talk sports with people. I can watch, but the events wash over me without the same meaning or substance. For that reason, flamboyant and over-the-top drama (like hot tempers, trash talking, and general mischief) that happens during play is actually interesting as long as it isn't too unsportsman-like and doesn't interfere with the game too much. The soap opera drama is boring, the sports is interesting, but the performance and affectations are spicy.
To be clear, your take is totally valid and I'm not really critical of it at all. I just have a different perspective.
If they weren't going to make a panhandle out of the panhandle, they could have at least put it down at the bottom angling from Biscayne Bay down to Key West.
Next time you tape over it, try this. Cut an old credit card, hotel key card, or something similar to just larger than the switch's recess. Tape only the top edge to the machine so that the stiff plastic or cardboard covers the switch, but can be lifted up and out of the way when you need to access it. I've used a similar trick to protect light switches I wanted to occasionally use, but not accidentally flip along with the other switches in the next gang over.
Sorry, that's not what I see.
Both are measurements of cross-sectional AREA and are defined in terms of square millimeters (mm^2), not mm.
BitTorrent wasn't even launched until AFTER Napster was shutdown.
The mention of Napster would have put the original download this tweet refers to as happening sometime before July 2001. But, it's entirely possible they were using Napster as a generic term for any number of the other protocols around in 2002, most of which didn't have the ability to resume. BitTorrent would have been the anomaly here for its resumabilty, but was rarely used for music privacy at the time. PirateBay and Demonoid launching later in 2003.
Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the odd bench. But I have another theory. It looks like a rotating device of some kind for the seat so that if the bench is wet from rain or covered in snow, one can rotate it to a dry side for a dry seat. I doubt the homeless, even the poor or lower classes, would have been allowed anywhere near such a garden as this anyway unless they were serving someone.
They're all very fungible assets, maybe even more than cash in those times. Except the drummer boy, but a song is probably all that poor kid had to give.
I also have strong opinions about Christmas lights.
Unfortunately, they do not perfectly align with Technology Connections. We agree is almost all respects: flickering is bad, purple is not a valid Christmas color, white lights should be warm and not bluish. I just can't agree about this one thing though, I LOVE the super saturated colors of LEDs for the red, blue, and green lights. I care much less about the saturation of the yellow and/or orange lights.
