I will say though, as a child of 90s eurodance, I will be adding the Austrian entry to my playlists immediately. I also just still enjoy the Finnish entry immensely.

@andrew a lot of the music and backup dancer outfits were very 90s inspired this time

So far, has maybe double the number of “systems” at play as Hades, and I actually think that’s a good thing.

It’s really making me think about multi-layered builds for each run, in a way that I didn’t for the first, and means that each run accomplishes some sub-objective of the build, even if the main one isn’t met.

@phildini I really need to get around to playing Hades, huh.

@offby1 @phildini it's near the top of my list, along with Control and BG3!

Seething with jealousy about those aurorae (it rain), but I guess I kinda did see a total solar eclipse last month, so it’s a wash?

Today's bizarro discussion thread tangents-on-tangents (granted, 1/4 of these are me and my oddly-wired brain):

  • "post really old or weird stuff in your house”
  • "check out this creepy stuffed animal…thing?"
  • “wow that looks like SCP-173”
  • “I forget what SCP-173 looked like since they took down the 'photo’”
  • "here's an obfuscated image link with an hxxps:// url scheme”
  • “why is Slack offering to open that in an app?"
  • "is hxxps http/4 with xz compression?"
  • "god zstd is so fucking good”

Halp - Grammarly's free 'business' accounts for nonprofits just expired, and i didn't realize it would mean all my "Snippets" (a bank of frequently used formatted text accessible via shortcut) would no longer work (and also be deleted 😭 )

Any alternatives out there to Snippets anyone can share?

Having to cut and paste identical answers to a bajillion PyCon sponsors a week out from the event is cracking my already strained sanity 😭

@bitprophet@social.coop avatar

@lorenipsum If this problem is what it sounds like, TextExpander is a fantastic option and appears to be cross-platform now. (They did move to a subscription style thing at some point but may still offer older versions for d/l? and/or may have better pricing structure than Grammarly did, idk.)

You know how there are fancy names for pretty much every nerd-ass hobby? Vexillology for flag nerds, numismatics for coin collectors, etc.

Is there one for the folks who collect condiment packets?

I ask because a) I know those people exist and b) I can't stop thinking about how much design effort went into these low-sodium soy sauce packets. (The green color may not come across in the photos accurately, but it's really nice.)

Photo of ‘SHOYU’ soy sauce packet with a green/black/white color scheme. Brand appears to be ‘Yamasa USA’.

ME: hm I should make one (1) change to my programmable keyboard.

30 MINUTES LATER: well, my random weird devicemapper issue went away after uninstalling/reinstalling docker and rebooting a few times, but now docker seems to require root, when it didn't before? wtf

Computers may have been a mistake. (Also, it's amazing how far my desire to tinker with my setup has plummeted now that the community is splintering.)

bitprophet,
@bitprophet@social.coop avatar

Well, nothing another reboot didn't fix! What is this shit, Windows?

And this is a /headless/ Linux box, at that, so can't blame any of the huge pile of desktoppery bullshit one might otherwise blame, either.

Why are researchers trying to enshittify commit messages with LLMs when we already have reached peak enshittification with conventional commits?
