Post-Dispatch print facility ends 146-year run in St. Louis
On Sunday night, press workers at the Maryland Heights printing plant wiped down machines and posed for photos as trucks carrying Monday's paper headed out into the snow.
As a page designer on @stltoday.com's night crew for most of my career, the closure of our press and the loss of so many local skilled jobs is terribly sad.
Hannah Wyman and Zachary Linhares did a wonderful job telling the stories of the pressmen and machinists thru words and visuals.

Here's the Copilot version:
We've entered the chatbot era. Take a moment to chat with Copilot, ChatGPT, or the latest chatbot to get a better grasp on them when you hear about chatbots.

We've come into the age of chat bots, both customized and open ones.
I recommend taking time, interest or no, to attempt some chats with copilot or chatgpt or whichever the flavor of the day chatbot is. This will give you a small idea understanding when you're reading or hearing about bots.

Hugh Laurie on not waiting for the right time to do things, but to do them now because there's no such thing as being ready.
Good morning

Still believe one can't truly be wise and garner truly British humor without watching this.

I'm doing bsky wrong? I've yet to run across any nudes. Though I've gotten way more exposure to politics here than expected.

I've never heard of a stunt turkey until just now. So one for show, and one to go. I guess the other is for later. We had enough trouble getting one small turkey. Ha.

It's time to wind down and sleep. Tomorrow is a full work week before the holiday.
The sense of impending doom is subdued for now.
Always remember to focus on what you can control.

Wow. I'd be a wee bit leary of going outside with that going on.
