Me: I got a good start on my code but it's late, I'm tired, I have stuff to do in the morning, I should get to bed

Me in bed: wide awake thinking about everything ever for the next two hours

Excitement! I wanted to play around with the AGBIC 2021 gamejam after hearing about it, and I just got clearance from petitmori to use her Miel famicase entry for it!

Hope I do her proud with this T^T I've got a late start going but hopefully my idea can fit into the time I have

COVID, relevant to people in new england :boost_requested:​ 

So uh, Stewarts, the gas station, has decided that employees should show up if they have COVID, so uh... be aware of this when you go into one

oh come on, you can't call a platform Godot and not say "the wait is over!" anywhere on the website

psa, exploding power supplies, :boost_ok: appreciated 

If you recently bought a Gigabyte power supply, it may be at risk of exploding. Newegg has been selling these power supplies in bundles with high-end graphics cards to try and liquidate e-waste stock.

From what we understand, the safety mechanism that's supposed to shut it down if there's an unsafe spike in usage (Over Power Protection, OPP) didn't kick in until serious damage was already done.

Gamer's Nexus did a video that goes more in-depth than we could ever hope to. youtube.com/watch?v=aACtT_rzTo

As of yet, Gigabyte has opted to issue an update to lower the OPP threshold rather than issue a recall.

Please double-check your power supplies in all computers you use or admin to see if they're affected.

Stay safe.

I think today's just a fuzzout day, I am intensely sleepy and I've not been up for 12 hours even

Maybe I'll just let myself sleep after the laundry's done

food 

since the potato salad was a total bust and was going to be my leftovers for the weekend, pickings are a bit slim until grocery day, mostly frozen stuff and pasta

moth girls reading the story of Icarus and being like "yeah? and? that's normal??"

Probably got a solanine sensitivity, and I prepared the potatoes for my potato salad in the precise worst way for that. Good to know!

Sees a boost on my TL: oh that's cute Imma boost it too, wonder what else they have

Looks at boost's profile and sees half a dozen references to suspended instances: fuck abort abort unboost go back mayday mayday

Huh TIL Discord lets you do <t:{epoch_time}> in a message and it'll auto-convert to local time for each recipient.

That's neat, and of course it's not documented anywhere really.

It having to be epoch time is kind of unwieldy but more platforms need something like that.

What I planned to do with my evening: draw elfi as a bug fables OC

What I did: play bug fables while--and after--watching @keliff play bug fables

No regrets

havin' feelings about bees and moths again, time to hug the squishables

Challenge mode: feed the ticker tape into a serial decoder, print the resulting bytestream onto transparencies, and cycle it over a UV light to create the masks for a resin print

Gonna get myself a ticker tape machine from an antique store so I can have a 1D printer, a 2D printer, and a 3D printer all lined up side by side
