I typically don’t care about things like hairstyle, makeup or clothes. But my wife has started giving herself a buzz cut and I simply hate it. I told her and she grew it out for a while, but she said longer hair was making her depressed and it needed to be a buzz cut. She said it just looks like her when she sees it. Part of...
What else could it be? To me, given how it's a persistent haircut that she wants to maintain, it may as well be comparable to cutting the front 1mm of one's nose off. That would make one less attractive to probably a lot of people, with no other/further factor involved.
Not really. It's constant sudden-death; your run ends the moment you can't beat an enemy in X turns. The turn limit is your health that resets per conflict. I greatly disliked this aspect of it.
It's best described as Yahtzee with poker hands using a mutated deck that could have missing cards, duplicate cards, insane multipliers, etc.
@tsonfeir But Linux does not have AutoHotkey. This is the biggest deal-breaker for me by far. AutoKey seems be the closest thing, but it's such a massive pain to even try to use by comparison.
Do you have any as-convenient alternative? It's way easier to use than Python or anything else, and it's sped up some of my work procedures by, like, 7x. I use it for dozens of text expansion strings, autocorrect, address typers, mouse-clickers, etc.
Never mind, I've since stumbled across xdotool! I suppose this may be doable after all...
Interesting, thanks. I think ultimately, seeing this port's adherence to AHK v1 syntax, I'd just have to bite the bullet and learn Python or something, though...
Apparently, xdotool can! I guess the next thing would be generating GUIs. I think the final issue is that this would cause quite the fragmentation given how I use the same scripts on my Windows-only work laptop... but I'll think about this more...

I can no longer tell if this is truly oil or AI-produced, lol. This sure backs up the case for the former, though, and it's absolutely mind-blowing work: https://metallicman.com/art-yasutomo-oko
