What do bicycle-based doordashers use for safely transporting fountain drinks? Or is this a problem that hasn't been fully solved yet?

I tried Darktable last night. It's an open source alternative to Adobe Lightroom, for processing Raw photos.

The regular build didn't support my camera, due to a bug in LibRaw. The nightly build fixed this, though.

The interface will take a decent amount of getting used to. It's almost like lightroom, but my muscle memory isn't quite compatible.

I opted to switch back to Lightroom to process the hundreds of photos I took yesterday. I'll try Darktable again on a lighter workload.

Used the word "zed" in a meeting today. I'm trying to keep it alive.

It's a poor workman who blames his tools. Unless that tool is JIRA. Or a phillips-head screw.

Out of curiousity, has anyone ever done a migration from Sculpin to WordPress?

@Skoop I haven't, but maybe there's a markdown import plugin?

This is soothing, disturbing, and hilarious, in equal parts.

"Why scientists are studying whales with a crossbow"

Because they are whales. And they have a crossbow.

Don't make them angry.

Watched the premier episode of #Fallout and #AmazonPrime not only ran ads before the show but interrupted the show 3-4 times to play unskippable ads. 😡

Ads before were bad enough, but this is absolutely jarring & bullshit for a service I pay for.

Can't even seem to find any info about an ad-free tier for Canadian subscribers.

Really makes the "oh, it's streaming on Prime" discovery into a disappointment than good news.

@ramsey @syntaxseed when I watched it in Canada, it was sponsored commercial-break-free by some company with a green brand (not being cutevague; that's literally all I remember).

I know I might sometimes gripe about "lack of imagination" or whatnot, with the prevalence of reboots, but ...

Oof, Cara seem to be regretting their infrastructure choices right about now. https://cara.app/post/7de50d6e-885c-4e69-80b7-d81fcb4b19ef

@jonikorpi serverless is scary because it can make wallets explode.

When you hand craft & name your servers, you limit your potential splash zone. Slightly.

But if you design your codebase so it /only/ runs on one server, you get the worst of both worlds.
