bless the victorians
so a lot of this mini-project i have somehow embarked on has to do with figuring out what it is that they’re saying the appropriate size is given that they have such strong opinions and it’s complicated by letters being written on paper folded like this.. but not written in the order you’d think?
If I could get away with writing in the register of the 19th century y’all wouldn’t know what had hit you
“But the past is gone, and dealing with the present it becomes a duty to present a review of things to be and not those that have been, and consider the living and not the recondite.” this is about STATIONERY
Ha Ha It Sure Would Suck If The Gendered Discrimination “Of The Past” Informed The “Neutral” Technological Lens We Bring To The Present
https://metaphor.systems/ why would you make this the example for your system to use text embeddings that you’re not promoting as explicitly dystopian
why was the file size of the upload huge if the details end up this blobby

https://sakofchit.github.io/system.css/ i want to like it but I question whether you can put something like this together without working from pixely assets & integer multipliers, you know? vector geneva and chicago just look Wrong to me. i should put my css where my mouth is
(#5vaid6q) @eaplmx@twtxt.net Yes, exactly. The site I used has a mobile web app that lets you take a picture with your phone, measures your pupil distance for scale, and then automatically overlays the frames you’re looking at onto your picture.
Had my first eye exam in forever last night and ordered some new glasses now that I have an updated prescription. I went with frames that are pretty similar to what I already use, but image mockup technology has improved a lot since the last time I ordered so I amused my kids with pictures of myself with wild frames first.
(#owkdycq) @prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, interesting. My original interpretation was that the (#hash) was hidden by yarn.social’s UI, but then when I saw it turn up in the UI for some posts I started to get confused because my incorrect expectation was that a (#hash) would either always be exposed or always hidden and a mix of the two never occurred to me.
As far as GO knowledge I have some casual programming experience and have looked at the source a little, but I wasn’t able to identify the relevant parts of the code base. I am interested in understanding further, although I’m not sure how much I can contribute.
it shouldn’t be so cold in november! my poor little fall plantings :( i’m rooting for you, yarrow #gardening
(#upbddla) @prologic@twtxt.net Perhaps Mastodon isn’t popular enough in Brazil.
(#as2ddnq) How did it taste?
(#xnryd6q) Thanks for all the answers. I have taken a look at them and I will consider them all.
(#hl4muca) @mckinley@twtxt.net Thanks a lot! I have anticipated this blogpost, and you did not let me down!
(#owkdycq) @prologic@twtxt.net Oh well, I can work around it manually for the time being now that I know what’s up.
(#c5wd4la) @prologic@twtxt.net It’s the dystopian spy thriller story of the beginnings of the Rebellion against the Empire five years before Rogue One.
(#owkdycq) @prologic@twtxt.net To further clarify, this missing post id tag behavior is happening within a conversation view rather than out in the main timeline- maybe it’s a bug?
(#x43iebq) @prologic@twtxt.net I’m a bit confused about how the two different reply icon buttons behave. The speech bubble with a plus doesn’t supply a post id tag to the edit field at all, while the double speech (conversation?) icon supplies the id tag of the post you’re replying to rather than the original root. Shouldn’t both options supply some kind of id tag to the edit field?
Andor is such a good show. That’s it. That’s the twt.
jeno jando’s beethoven sonatas are my go to. there was another artist’s recordings i liked back in high school also, but there’s nothing like being able to throw Old Reliable Jando on the speakers
is it worth it to file an insurance claim for the stuff that went bad over the power outage? would it blunt the emotional impact of having to compost my nicely packed and labeled frozen meals
Time for a little yarn post reply functionality testing.
Paper talks.
browser extension that emits mocking laughter every time I fruitlessly hit ctrl-[ in a web app
if you are kind of programmery, haven’t messed with linear optimization before, and are curious, i have a commented sample at https://maya.land/trader-joes-reduced-delta-reduced-guilt-mac-and-cheese/ that is a somewhat ludicrous application
yesterday i hyperfocused for Quite a While on proving something might be a problem, using linear optimization, and today my brain feels sort of refreshed, exercised. whatever the pertinent characteristic is of that work, i need to do more like it.
i have found perhaps the most waffling disclaimer of all time https://sophiafoundation.org/sophia-foundation-disclaimer/
(#nzojsda) Looks like only one of my two judge position choices won their race. The winner I didn’t vote for is currently working as a deputy prosecutor and won quite handily which in retrospect feels predictable given the conservative tendencies of Spokane County. Regardless, all four candidates were well qualified and I’m perfectly content with the outcome.
november is the month for shakespearean histories i have yet to drag fiance through the hollow crown, so…
I’m really happy with how well octobloc.xyz has been working out so far. Yarn.social’s feed (persona) functionality is probably my single favorite feature because it lets me do topical microblogging.
for some reason, looking up non ad-hell youtube #gardening content, the australian stuff seems to be superior. this is totally fine but i’ll admit the christmas music underneath is throwing me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2EtDAKlyyg
(#nzojsda) All done. There were actually two judge races that required some effort on my part- all four candidates seemed solid and as strictly non-partisan positions it’s interesting to figure out who to choose.
I spent a ludicrous amount of time on the images/styling for this thing so I am going to promote it one more time before I allow it to gently, uh, compost into the digital garden, as it were https://maya.land/vampire-the-metasquerade/
are there queer Christian (esp. Catholic) hashtags I don’t know about? I feel bad sitting there guessing in mastodon.social’s hashtag search over and over. :boost_requested:
do NPR stations other than KUOW/OPB do local-focused podcasts? the ones we have here are great, I hope for this for the rest of you
Need to wrap up my ballot so I can drop it off at our library ballot box later today. This area has a surprising number of unopposed candidates for the minor positions which I find depressing.
(#qh35edq) @abucci@anthony.buc.ci That is a metric I can relate to!🙄
📺 I’ve been enjoying Shantaram on AppleTV quite a bit. I’ve never read the novel, but I may have to track it down. 1980s era Bombay is a fascinating milieu and I find the characters and story quite compelling
this is from the can spam act. why did they choose the hyphen. do they actually require a dash instead of a hyphen. i have questions and no one should take the time to give me answers
The phrase “SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT” comprises 17 characters, including the dash between the two words. The colon (:) and the space following the phrase are the 18th and 19th characters.
had someone report me to me. i sort of respect that
is “truck bloat” the official name https://theweek.com/articles/929196/case-against-american-truck-bloat
is there fediverse lore written down anywhere? like – there was that one person who had a coworker who ate dog food, right? and – fuck brewster kahle? I don’t want to be the one who makes this list but I want it to exist
why is everything I ever want to do in the browser a violation of CORS
