@fesshole “I used to play Halo on the Playstation” is blatant bait. Not falling for that one.
@farah don’t attempt to work out every day, especially at first when getting back into it. Recovery is just as important as the exercise itself, that’s when the body rebuilds muscle that’s been broken down by exercise.
@farah it is, of course, a grift. That airport is paying licensing fees to use the Trump name on things now. (Source: A half remembered podcast segment so you might want to verify that)
@joenash or even better, if one of your accounts has access to the file and none of the other ones do just use the one it’s clearly for. Madness I know.
I don’t think I’ll ever get used to having mobile data deep in the London Underground tunnels, truly living in the future here.
Gotta be out the house about 7am tomorrow so of course I’m still up and haven’t gone to bed yet.
@CatherineFlick I’m using Obsidian for journaling along with scheduled reminders elsewhere to do so.
@joenash they’ve got a very difficult job of [checks notes] forwarding emails between tenant and landlord while making edits that completely change the meaning of the email.
@benc I’m not sure what to think about that. I think it’s probably correct if somehow the API remained entirely stable, I’d definitely be shipping some release candidates first though!
@jonty I just read on the Wikipedia page that due to development being in the depths of Australia’s lockdowns they did in fact run the team meetings for Big Walk in Big Walk, which is a thing I hope they have screen recordings of.
@whitequark my guess would be that it’s because you can fit more economy passengers on the same plane, and while each passenger is going to take fuel either way you’ve still got to account for getting the plane itself in the air.
@an0key genuinely, where do I sign up? That sounds terrifying and fantastic at the same time.
@gsuberland ok, yeah, that is cursed. I was about to ask where you got it because I genuinely could use some sort of USB-A to Ethernet cable.
@rachel I have once again been reminded that I need to write a subscriptions only YouTube client for tvOS sometime, because almost all my YouTube time is on the TV where extensions don’t work.
@JustinDerrick @WuMargaret @hacks4pancakes ownership records for valuable things are a place you actually want some slack in the system. NFT based ownership of a house means if somehow the seller typos an address some random person in Bolivia now owns the house I paid for, which isn’t an ideal outcome. Meanwhile with the current system there’s still a record but mistakes can be rectified.
@DanHatesNumbers it really is amazing how much better I feel after a good session, I think it’s the perfect combination of mental and physical engagement to make my brain shut up and just get on with things.
I have finally done the post-EMF clean and tidy of my flat, which has been long delayed by the fact I’ve barely been home since getting back. I can’t tell you all quite how nice it is not be living in a tiny flat full of half unpacked shit and several trip’s worth of laundry bags.
@rachel I tend to consider myself more as having had books ruined by watching movies/shows rather than the other way round in any case where the book came first. The Odyssey I felt had exceeded the statute of limitations for spoilers by approximately 28 centuries though.
I should be in bed but instead have just discovered Simple Mode in the Uber app, pitched as for “seniors” but in fact it’s a toggle which turns off the swathes of advertising other Uber services and makes the home page a search box for where you want to go and a list of saved locations. It also starts near instantly rather than spending several seconds downloading ad manifests.
@mitchellh is it practical to do smaller builds that don’t include the full Unicode tables and either download on demand or simply not support the full range, which I suspect would be fine in the vast majority of cases?
I’d got quite into work today and had considered just cracking on this evening. Instead I went for a 90 minute walk down to the river and then back across town, followed by dinner, which was an infinitely better use of Friday evening.
@Konichiwakitty shout out for chemistry and the wild things it can do. I hope it works well for you!
@gsuberland I’m eagerly awaiting your discovery of a fold out hook on this thing.
being good at computer does not make you smart at not-computer.
