I used to use FTP for file transfer, nowadays I just start up a HTTPS server on the source machine and grab stuff from there.

Well, it was a spur-of-the-moment sort of thing when I went and looked at their site and it just had a bunch of names with no numbers there under the book art.

Went and checked now and site looks entirely different, and I can clearly see the issue numbers. I don't know, maybe I hallucinated it.

Yeah. I tried getting into comics once and got a multi-gigabyte archive of deadpool stuff.

...couldn't make heads or tails of it.

Actually couldn't get into IDW sonic/transformers for the same reason. WHERE DO I START!?

What do you mean unseasoned, they have salt on them. smh

Perfectly good boiled potatoes and stew.

Yeah, it's pretty difficult to find energy for personal programming stuff when your dayjob is programming stuff.

Gotta get up from the PC for a bit.

Chernobyl isn't safe safe, it's just safe enough for wildlife to survive there, possibly with lowered life span and quality of life.

Also, there's a decent danger of radioactive dust coming off the book if it's handled. It may not be that radioactive, but if it clings to you, or you breathe it in, it will do considerably more damage than if it was all one solid rock that made geiger counters click.

"speak-singing" is a thing some people do to work around language issues, apparently it's an entirely different part of the brain.

Anything an API returns should just look like 1720533944.963659 .

There's no reason to store dates as anything other than UTC. User-side, sure, timezones are useful. Server doesn't have to know.

It makes gray look red because it's similar luminosity. White still looks white.

...I was gonna say it took until it was shrunk down to the thumbnail to see red, but nope, it actually has red in it in the thumbnail.

Guess this is specific to how often you see cans of coca-cola?

Here, I put the image through a ditherer (only available colours are black, cyan, white). I don't see any red at all now.

[edit}

Actually, that "red" is mostly just gray so I played myself here. Still, the luminosity must be closer to red before I detect it as red, white doesn't do it.

I'm beginning to suspect "superfocus" is just what normal people do when they focus.

I just change certain keybinds to be GIMP-like whenever I switch drawing programs.

N is the pencil, CTRL-SHIFT-A is deselect. There's something else, but I can't remember right now.
