Subtoot: I will never not read the British spelling "sceptic" and hear it in my head as "septic". How do British people spell "scepter", without the "c"? Or do they pronounce it like it's spelt "skepter"?

Cool. Some #cog user in Poland, using the #play mobile ISP, is directing the DNS record for the Cog Sparkle updates and downloads server at some Caddy instance that's just returning 502 errors whenever it's hit for the update manifest. I don't use Caddy for that server, it's #cloudflare proxy in front of Cloudflare R2, so static object storage with caching.

"Empty commit" because Fuck you too, Apple. What if I want to resubmit the same exact version I just rejected?

I found this quiz on a quick google search. https://wayground.com/admin/quiz/657a6eb85011e687a7c02d18/successful-meetings-quiz Never have I more wanted to defy the concept of successful meeting. I am all about sowing the seeds of chaos, increasing uncertainty, and diverging from the topic of discussion wherever possible.

Google needs better search results. No results whatsoever for "leggy salute". Does nobody own cats any more?

God dammit. I wish my brain wouldn't mock people's names when it's convenient.

My dad is getting spammed by all the democratic candidates all over the whole damn country asking for constant donations, because he gave one time to ActBlue.

One of the candidates that's popped up is named Abigail Spanberger.

This unfortunately made me think of how she's spamming him, so I came up with Abigail Spamburger. Sorry, not sorry.

God, Ready Refresh / Primo Brands sucks ass. I now have a permanent Sparkletts 5 gallon water bottle item on my recurring items order, because their shitty recurring items editor doesn't let you remove discontinued items. And the only tech support they have is a voice hotline that you have to wait 30+ minutes before you can talk to a human on. Or you can prompt the chat bot that only responds to fixed phrases like a damn menu system, and it only takes you to existing web page items and can't actually do anything you can't already do with the web interface.

EXT_shader_object? More like Elder Scrolls Online.

Hmm

God dammit, I should not be letting my dad buy books for himself constantly. His latest purchase of an entire set of ebooks that is not worth reading ever again only deserves one catch phrase: "Eat shit, stupid dried-up bog-hag."

FFS, even if he must read that shit again, I already bought the set myself back before it was more obvious that she was a stupid dried-up bog-hag. And I couldn't even make my way through them again even back then, I got stuck on how awful the experience was.

But I could have totally given him my unprotected epub set and save him giving more money to the stupid dried-up bog-hag. Alas. I hope she chokes on it.

Oh, and he "followed" her on Amazon. As if she's ever going to shit out another book. She's too busy hating on trans people to shit out more books. And they wouldn't be worth reading anyway.

So, I guess Cracker Barrel brought back the cracker.

Incidentally, sorry about the other day. It wasn't so much that I don't understand jokes, and more that I take jokes at the expense of unpopular things that I happen to like somewhat personally.

Yes, it's true, I love Liquid Glass. And I don't give a shit that it's expensive on resources.

I loved Aero Glass in 2006, too. Much to the chagrin of my younger brother, who hated slogging through my tiny OS partition of Windows Vista with 1GB of system RAM and 256MB of VRAM, and insisted on rebooting back to the spacious install of Windows XP sitting on the majority of the drive.

He also insisted on booting to Windows 98 to play with DOS games and emulators when I insisted on defaulting to Windows 2000.

Same story with eventually wiping an oem machine that we were given the horrid choices of NT 4, 2000, and ME, and dumbass me picked ME.

Fuck you, Apple customers! If you're dumb enough to buy a tablet with just 64GB of storage, that leaves your shmuck ass with just 24GB for user data! That's right, 24GB for user data! That includes apps!

Dear Cheese Manufacturers: Please stop wasting time making resealable packages. My mom can't get the zippers open anyway, so she just hacks them straight off with scissors and stuffs the whole thing in a disposable zipper bag, which then gets thrown away along with the cheese package when the 11 slices are gone.

And with that, I should sign off for the night. And probably sleep 13+ hours before waking up groggily and being totally useless for another 2-3 hours.

I really wish people would stop using humor in my proximity.

All this obsession over Silksong, and I couldn't even be badass enough to beat a single boss in the original game.

Is it weird that I find it weird people do things to their bodies? And that I don't think about mine at all because I'd just as soon not have one?
