If rabbits attack when you walk past, are you having a bad hare day?

Lepus not encourage type of comment. I don't think it warrens a response.

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Yes, and when they walk away together after the attack it is called a receding hare line.

My rabbits name is lucky. I felt sorry for him cause he only had 3 feet.

I ordered a book 2 weeks ago and have been watching its tracking history. It usually only takes a few days a week at most but according to tracking its been all over the state (Florida). I got to thinking: I bet it would have a story to tell.

I have the same issue going on with some specialized batteries and vitamins I ordered. Not sure when they will show up. Tracking is still tracking.

I had something I bought off eBay on the 2nd of December. Tracking shows it floated about the USPS processing stations until it arrived in Wisconsin somewhere. It's been there since the 8th and every day I check... and it's still there. Lot's of other stuff took a long time but eventually arrived - but this is getting excessive considering the "estimated delivery date was the 7th!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I have found USPS deliveries to be uniformly very efficient, except for one package that was rerouted a bit. During the holiday rush, anything is possible, but remember that a lot of their sorting equipment had been removed and other things done that greatly hampered their efficiency.
Although a court ordered it to be reversed, that doesn't mean the current postmaster-general (a political appointee) was in any hurry to do so.
Actually, for all the apologies I've seen in my mail tracking (check out Informed Delivery if you don't already have it), they've been outstanding.

You would think as we entered a new year, you would have turned over a new leaf..... I guess you just have to wait for it to be delivered first.

Which one? 
The 11" Edge is a beast and can see so much more, still trying to get used to it and optimise my worklow and guiding etc. Only played with it for a short while.
The 11" Rasa is sitting at home waiting for me, I have been away since beginning of November and don't get home until end of January, still doing these long rotations due to covid.

Ugh, long rotation sucks.
New toy and can't play, that sucks even worse.
We went to Peru last year and the place we stayed was way out from nearest town and they had a small observatory and we got to see rings of Saturn, I was awed.

My worst package routing experience was just recently, when I ordered 32GB of RAM for my work laptop. It left a Dallas suburb to be delivered to me in a suburb of Cincinnati (935 miles, according to Google). It went to St Paul Minnesota, then to Boise, then to Reno, then Salt Lake City, from there on to Salem, Oregon, then to St Louis, then to Columbus OH (yay, only 100 miles away!), then to Philadelphia, back to Columbus, then to Lexington KY (presumably passing through Cincinnati on it's way!), up to Indianapolis and finally to Cincinnati (total per Google roughly 8100 miles). I guess since it was a small padded envelope, it must have gotten overlooked a few times at various depots along the way.

Recent years, I have started reading more books(Thanks to ebooks).
I'm looking for Fiction(Novel, Short story, Drabble, etc.,) related to Programming / IT / Computer / Hacking / Software.
Any recommendations or past reads from you? Books or websites, anything fine. Please share.
(Recently added few Cory Doctorow & Neal Stephenson's books in to wish list)

The greatest programming fiction of all times. "My code doesn't have any bugs."
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Hi,
Check out the fiction by Mark Russinovich[^], it's called the 'Jeff Aiken' series. I don't want to put a direct link because it would probably qualify as spam.

The series gets my vote. I have all three books, but only read the first one so far.
The only criticism I have is its unnecessary "guy gets the girl at the end" side-story that I felt was rather contrived, and only present in hopes that Hollywood would buy the movie rights and it's only there bring some general appeal for the masses.
