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?

“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

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.

(#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?

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

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.

(#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.

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.


#ov4ki2q

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:


#awoeovq

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.

📺 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


#dk4uj5a

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


#kr2kzga

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.


#j4zxmqq

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
