I had to reimage my RaspberryShake because I lost its password (🤪). It went well! Here’s how it felt #RaspberryShake

The seismic signal of unplugging the RaspberryShake RaspberryPi was extreme. Then there was an empty gap of data for about two hours. The final install wasn’t quite as bad but it took a few minutes for the sensors to calm down.

A Qatar A350-1000 lands on SFO's 28R as a United 7879 starts its take-off roll on 28L. The bay is just visible in front of the airport's runway landfill. The A350-1000 has its characteristic expanded uncarriage with six total wheels, while the 787-9 looks sad, feeling left out with only four wheels per main landing gear.

A raven. #Raven #BirdPhotography #Birds #SacramentoWildlifeRefuge #Fujifilm #SOoCA photo of a raven from the front, as its perched on the tip of a bare branch. Its stark black feathers stand out agaist a blue sky. Its beak is slightly open, almost as if it's saying something. There's a glint in its left eye.

Classic Black Phoebe! They’re always on the tip of objects close to the ground, searching for its next meal. This one is a crossing guard for a very brief moment. #BlackPhoebe #Birds #BirdPhotography #Fujifilm #SOoCA black phoebe is perched atop a stop sign. Only the rear the stop sign can be seen, with the sun lighting up its back, highlighting the wood pole and straps keeping the sign attached. The black phoebe is looking to the right, its back lit up, but the rest of its dark body in silohette. The sky is cloudy.

#SilentSunday #SacramentoWildlifeRefugeA lone cottonwood, in yellow fall colors, stands in a calm pond, perfectly mirroring the tree's trunk and lower branches. It is a foggy day and much of the pond grass is brown. A line of trees bounders the pond and the foggy sky.

A Coopers Hawk, atop a leafless tree branch under overcast skies, appears to look right at the camera. The hawk has a brown back with a fluffy white chest adorned with brown raindrop shapes.
