We got word today that we will be working remotely until at least late spring, early summer. Im SHOCKED

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
To be fair to Hawaii, we went all-mail-in for the first time this year (already planned before COVID). We also have competitive mayoral races on 2 of the most populous islands, so there's actually a point in voting in the general, which most years, it's hard to make that case.
I wish that the DoE would show that kind of foresight and planning. Having to give us 2 weeks notice before changing things was a struggle.
We have a home office, so that helps, but if DH manages to get a job, then things will get interesting, logistics-wise. But that is a problem I'd be entirely happy to have.
I've worked from home for years now but generally stopped by my doctors' offices at least once a month to say hi and see how things were going. Always got a super warm welcome and it was nice to be greeted with joy. Now all of them only want to see me if there is an emergency that can't be handled remotely. They don't want me to be where sick people hang out. I think I have been on one visit since last spring.
Got my precinct set up this afternoon. Tomorrow is going to be a very long day, but they were hopeful that it won't be too overwhelming because of the level of early voting. But all are willing to stay as long as it takes.
Made the drive down to Portland, in hotel with puppy. Hoping he doesn’t pee on the carpet. Or bark a ton.
Hotel room has no tv, so I can’t binge in the same way. Which is probably good.
When somebody has a moment, could we possibly get a heavier, darker font? I love the sans serif of it all, but it's pale, even though I've increased the size. Thanks for all the hard work that's got us here. It's really spacious. But familiar and updated and comfy!
I am buying outdoor Christmas decorations, like a crazy person.

Does anybody happen to know/remember what the default font was on the old phoenix? Would a reversion to that be helpful?
yesyesyesyes, please! I don't remember what it was, and It probably doesn't read as well on your phone, but maybe we could compromise? I never read on my phone, which makes me an anacronysm or a luddite, etc. But darker would be better, at least for me. And thank you!
Adding to the yes please on the darker font.
I have submitted some code that will allow you to override the font with any font installed on your system, as well as change the font size. Gud is the expert who needs to make sure I didn't break anything, etc, but it's on the agenda.
