• A photo of the legs of a woman. The focus is on the mid-calf black leather platform heel lace-up boots. There are buckles on the outside of the leg. She's also wearing black tights and a black dress with red flowers, and a long purple jacket. (remote)

Why is it that often, we talk about the 1st or the 3rd party ?

Why skip steps? Where is the justice for the 2nd party?

Thinking about Lorde's Hot Ones interview again.

What blows my mind isn't that she enjoys the really spicy wings, it's that she has such a minimal *involuntary* response to them. Like, there are a lot of spicy foods I will happily eat but that make my nose run/eyes water a lot. She just no-sells it all on an *autonomic* level

My least favorite thing about replaying Pokemon X/Y is how it loves to pop up little nag boxes on the touch screen about features that it thinks you're not using enough. I don't want to do a random online battle with my level 15 team, thanks

All the elaborate total conversion hacks of pokemon games are cool but I need a mod that disables this & a "Do Not Disturb" setting for the HGSS phone as well

from the History I Did Not Know Dept:

“On April 2, 1802, Georgia ceded its western territory—the land that would become Alabama and Mississippi—under the condition that slavery would be legal there… In 1790, North Carolina had similarly ceded its western territories to create the slave states of Tennessee and Kentucky.”

Learning new skills! For my kid's recent performance at her school I:

- Glued together and normalized volume of two audio tracks (ffmpeg).
- Recorded the performance on video with my camera.
- Superimposed the original audio track on the video and adjusted its volume against the audio from the mic to drown out the ambient noise (OpenShot).
- Added subtle fade in and out :-)

P.S. OpenShot is… very idiosyncratic. Which is not saying much when compared against ffmpeg :-)

So #Ubuntu disabled `pip install --local`. Which was how all of my helper scripts were installed, because… it was simple and it worked. Now, if I want to run something I wrote in #Python on my own machine I need to either a) wrap it in a Debian package or b) use a venv for every project. The latter option means I'll have to run my scripts as `~//.venv/bin/python ~//something.py instead of just `something`.

P.S. I'm sure there were Reasons™. I'm just frustrated…

• Watercolor drawing of a young woman with horns, pointy ears and tusks. She is faced towards the viewer, head slightly lowered, smiling, but looking very focused. In her hands she holds a rough pottery mug with red tea, the steam flowing up and around her head in stylized white shapes. The background is a dark red gradient from bottom, growing lighter towards the top. The entire image is in brown and red colors. (remote)
