There's a little thrift shop not far from my house, and every once in a while I stop by. This weekend, they had a few shopping carts full of books just inside the door, ten for a dollar. I rummaged through and selected a few for myself and my family members, then texted a friend about the Warhammer and military books that were sitting in there.
My neighbor has been having issue with his icloud account recently. He's an older gentleman, and he somehow linked up a landline number (which is really an IP phone) with his icloud account, then proceeded to lose his password. Now he can't reset his password, because they want to verify the account with a text message to the landline. If you try to start the process, it bounces you back-and-forth between his two Apple devices, never getting anywhere.
Listening to Radio BOB! via DAB+. The first work week is in the books and I'm a bit tired although I did not manage to do a lot of work, rather I had to do a lot of support and had plenty of meetings.
Summer made a long-awaited comeback today, it was slightly over 30 €°C on the balcony.
No more extracting oil, coal, or gas.
One way to play exploration games like D&D is as a resource game. Spells, HP, food, water, and light. But there’s one resource I rarely see other DMs talk about.

Now, I don’t think they meant for this to apply in the dungeon or in cities, but we’ve been playing it that way and it’s been pretty fun, it makes the days go by and it make finding a good camp really important. It’s just something extra to add to your game if you wanna. If you don’t, that’s fine too!
It seems i accidentaly converted a coworker to the church of emacs... well it was a couple of months ago when she told me how much stuff she does note on paper and that her desk is cluttered and she is drowning in too much information. Well... i just mentioned that there is something called org-mode, gave her a few links to youtube videos and helped her set up an emacs with some basic quality of life settings.
MIDI has a pitch_wheel_change event that may do things, and the things done may vary by playback device, which suggests writing some tests scripts to delve into how this event works.
My wife and I were going through some of her old things at her parents' place and we made some interesting finds.
She managed to track down her childhood Game Boy Advance SP along with all its games. A replacement battery was all it took to get it back up and running. I think she even managed to finish a couple of the games she could never beat as a kid. I thought about ordering a flash cart for it too but it looks like the good ones that people often recommend are so expensive that it'd be cheaper to buy a modern retro handheld and emulate.
I don't know why or how he installed it, but the way I do, I never got into any problems with whatsoever. It could be the way he tries to install it, my only guess would be he might build it from source. Maybe some build dependencies are missing then? I've never had any issues with it on anything GNU/Linux, whether it is a Fedora, Ubuntu or Arch Linux. And it is usually just an aptitude install or pacman -S away.
yesterday was the day when hashi decided that it didn't need the open source community which built it. hashi has decided to switch from mpl2 to busl. busl is not open source, it reverts to open source after 4 years. this is unfortunate, to start, it's a security risk.
Just wanted to say hi. I think I'm not going to proxy content from http to gemini and vice versa, I think it is just not worth it. Gemini has always been an alternative and not a replacement, so it makes sense to just put a link to the web when I feel like.
* Gemini (Primer) links can be opened using Gemini software. It's like the World Wide Web but a lot lighter.
