More visible promotion of active magazines would go a long way too. Almost every suggested magazine across the top of my nav bar is an empty ghost community, probably made on a whim during the Reddit kerfuffle and then abandoned.

I'm super grateful right now that my shoulder mobility is returning after a nasty fall at the bouldering gym last night. Still aches like a mofo and probably will for a week or two, but at least I can wipe my own ass :)

Even aside from the temptation to use offsets to kick the can down the road for reduction targets, the rampant abuse of carbon credits make this absolutely the right decision.

I'm currently halfway through Tchaikovsky's Shadows of the Apt series and I'm enjoying the plot but finding his writing style a bit tedious at times - excessive rehashing of events that happened like two chapters ago, overembellished emotional dramatics, and painstakingly spelling out every single character's internal monologue like it's a Jane Austen novel.

I know CoT was written later, so I'm wondering if his tone/style has developed a bit? He has cool ideas, I'm just wishing he'd trust the reader enough to get a bit more 'show, don't tell' with his writing...

about 2m-ish I guess? Our eldest miiight be able to make it up there if he wanted to, but he's a timid momma's boy with no interest in venturing out of his safe space. His little brother would if he could, but he's built like a kitbull - all shoulders and stumpy legs, not exactly made for jumping :)

iFixit are doing their best!

Our two cats get supervised time in the backyard every couple of days - we used to put them in harnesses until we moved to a place with high enough fences that they couldn't get out even if they wanted to.

Mostly they just wanna chew grass for 15 minutes and maybe investigate a random plant bed, and they quickly learned that if they come back inside when called they get treats :)

I've been on Pulsar since Atom retired and I love it. I'm mostly doing AsciiDoc with a bit of HTML, CSS, JS, J/CSON, and OAS/YAML.

Some of our team switched to VSCode but I prefer Pulsar's UI and workflow, and especially the multicursor support. Obviously it's still under active development to tidy up leftover cruft from the fork, and there are a few more AsciiDoc-specific features I'd love to add without resorting to custom scripts, but overall it's my favourite editor by far.

'Delighted' is a strong word, but two come immediately to mind:

First was an acquaintance I knew in high school, we had a few mutual friends but I don't even remember his name tbh. The one and only occasion he was ever nice to me was while off his face on molly; the rest of the time he was an erratic, unpredictably destructive asshole who I just avoided. Around age 17ish he wrapped his motorcycle around a lamp post and that was that. Of course there's a chance he might have mellowed out and grown up into a decent human being eventually, but far as I'm concerned he made the world a safer place by removing himself from it.

Second was a housemate who seemed harmless at first but turned out to be a compulsive liar with severe gambling problems - claimed to play poker professionally (he did play at comps, just wildly exaggerated his track record/earnings) and work at a local radio station (total fabrication). Amongst various other fuckery, he ran dipshit scams like selling nonexistent gaming consoles on eBay with our real home address/phone number on his profile, stole and pawned a bunch of our stuff, lied about paying his share of rent/bills while hiding our mail until we got hit with disconnections and eviction warnings, and then skipped town when it all unravelled and we threatened to go to the cops. Last we heard he was still up to his old tricks, and I know wound up serving time for tax fraud.

A decade or so later he was abducted and murdered in some kind of drug-related dispute, and his body still hasn't been found. It's a shitty way to go and I wouldn't wish that end on anyone, but he clearly hadn't learned anything or grown a conscience in the time since we parted ways, so it's a comfort that he won't be able to hurt anyone else now.

As an Ender 3 S1 Pro owner, I say buy a Prusa 😅

If you need to go cheaper, look at the Sovol SV06 - it's basically a Prusa clone with surprisingly positive reviews for the price, and it's Klipperable if you decide you want a performance boost down the road.

Definitely heat - pretty much all windshields/windows nowadays block UV, otherwise the dash/seats/etc. would also get wrecked way quicker than they do, not to mention drivers getting sunburn even with the windows up.
