But when the primer comes, we see all the lines we missed. Stay in sandland just a bit longer.

Also, a pox on people that make models with lines going through fingers, rope, and hair.

I've got a foldable to deal with being on call as a sysadmin and it's so much better than lugging o laptop around. The more screen I can fit in my pocket, the better.

I'm out of energy but not out of curiosity about the spikes for Paris and the shift for Chakotay, especially since Resolutions was in season 2.

My partner likes to order her bulk teas from https://urban-teahouse.com/ in Oklahoma.

Pets Sunday - how are they doing? in c/casualconversation@lemm.ee
[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 7 points 4 days ago

My 18 year old sphynx, Hairry, had congestive heart failure last Sunday, but I got him to a vet in time for them to help. He's doing well on medications and I get some extra time with him.sphynx cat curled up in a blanket with a leg stretched out

The vet was an ordeal as their initial diagnosis was lymphoma and were going to give steroids. A friend that works there offered to come in on her day off, made them wait for radiology to report back, and figured out it was heart failure. If they had given him steroids, it would probably have killed him, so I'm extra grateful she gave him some extra attention and care. He still had to stay in an oxygenated kennel for a day and a half as the meds cleared the fluid from around his heart and out of his lungs.

My client does, but I have the option to click through if I think it's worth it. Connect is the client.

Yeah, COVID really did put the idea that people can self organize constructively in the face of global events into the ground.

Hunting and fishing are for psychopaths (programming.dev)
 

I'm not talking about the consumption of animals here, to be clear. What I'm talking about is spending days and a bunch of money planning to kill something, doing the killing, and skinning/eviscerating what was killed, and often displaying the stuffed corpse. Hunters and fishers refuse to admit they're obsessed with taking pleasure in killing something.

Miss me with the "tradition" stuff, it's just peer pressure from the dead and a fallacious argument. Don't tell me it's to eat, like I said, I'm not talking about the consumption here, so please prove to me you are literate by not bringing up that point. And don't tell me you're respectful to the animals you kill; I don't believe the planning, stalking, and killing is a good way to show respect.

Looks like the hasn't made any crosswords for a while but the old ones are still available. Link goes to the themed ones and there's links to online versions in each post. Enjoy!

Knives go in the dishwasher and get sharpened with a pull through sharpener (programming.dev)
 

My tools serve me, not the other way around. It's not worth the time and effort to wash by hand or sharpen on a whetstone. I don't need an expensive knife to cook at home. A pull through sharpener and honing steel are adequate. Get the right material and you don't have to worry about the metal in the dishwasher.

[Request] Make blocked users not show up in inbox and profile views (programming.dev)
 

Blocking a user hides their content in comments, but it still shows up in inbox when viewing all as well as in comment chains in the profile view. It would be great if blocked users didn't show up in these places.

Let me know if there's more info needed.

Rabid Wombat - Kaja Foglio (programming.dev)
 

I still remember this card and its artwork. Holy moly, the date on it is 30 years ago.

The Foglios have been involved in quite a few projects over the years and it took a while for me to make the link between this card and Girl Genius.

Combat feels so slow (programming.dev)
 

When I was doing some cleanup and running into enemies in old areas, it made me realize how slow combat is and why. If you have timed blocks, it has to be slow to give players time to react to attacks, so every enemy attack animation ends up being long and they all add up.
