Thanks. Will keep that in mind! 🙂

I suppose I could also replace the keycaps periodically but that’d get kind of annoying 😛

Went ahead and retired the three Dell monitors last year. Still have them in the closet but I don’t use them now as the panels had some color issues. Kind of miss 16:10 though.

Yeah, integrated drivers can sometimes be limited in that regard. Granted, I rarely tweak the settings so I don’t have much experience with it 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Will do. I’ll probably have both active so that we can look to see what we like better. 🙂

Get a tourniquet! Or even a turkey net! One of them has got to work for border bleeds! We could also cauterize the wound with a tomcat. Tom the cat may find it fun.

bbPress has multiple themes? Interesting that they didn’t include those options in the settings. Maybe they’re leftovers?

Still want to add borders to make things bleed a little less. Should we go with white or the darker color that we’re using for various things?

[Spastic Hamburger]

Yep, remember Merlin. Only caught the first couple of episodes, though, before school got in the way. Really need to rewatch it in full at some point. Interesting that they named the Lady of the Lake Freya. Freyja. Freyja was the Nordic deity of sex and foresight.

Saw The Nesting yesterday. As far as ghost stories go, it wasn’t bad but it also lacked plot, another consequence of being a ghost story. Not many of them have a well formed plot, sadly.

Okay, profile styles should be done. Can’t do much about the email settings tab as that form has no selectors and I can’t add them in the template or page editor as there isn’t a corresponding one for profiles. Did I miss anything in profiles otherwise?

Edit:

Okay, there are IDs for those forms. They just weren’t being used so I didn’t catch them. Will get them fixed up soon

Sounds good.

Was doing some poking around and came up with a related post: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buddypress-integration-80/

Perhaps everyone should get together and have a luau to sort it all out?

Why a luau? Luaus are fun! Have no recollection of when I went to Hawaii when I was little but I’m sure there was a luau involved. 😛

So, yeah, about the navbar styles….

I can change it everywhere but on the forums without getting funky. It’s a result of poor coding in bbPress. Here’s what’s happening: in group forums, bbPress correctly minifies the CSS files. In WordPress Core, likewise. In bbPress core? It’s copying some of the CSS into the the bottom of the pages themselves, overriding custom style sheets as the custom style sheets are placed before these styles. The fix is either for the style pack to insert its CSS resource link to the bottom of the HTML after these custom styles or for bbPress to not place its CSS at the very end of the document (or, even better, do it properly via stylesheets). I suppose I could slap a !important on the styles but I’d rather not do that if I can avoid it. The navbar has been fixed everywhere else.

Still trying to update the BuddyPress styles. Looks like they changed more than just the format of the selectors so I’ll have to dig deeper.

I’ve also started commenting the styles and the selectors so we know what some more of the obtuse stuff actually means. Will also need to go back and investigate quite a few that I have no idea what are by looking at them 😛

Edit:

Fixed the profile image header. I’ll probably remove the purple style for BuddyPress. Really don’t know why I had that in there.

Making progress. Got most of BuddyPress updated. Still need to do the activity list. Eventually, I’ll clean out the old styles that are no longer used to make things easier to work with. Possibly when I convert things to variables. At the moment, I’m just tossing the selectors where they belong to get the site up to speed before I clean up the stylesheet. Or should I do the clean up first? Can always do that first.

I also still have to do the BuddyPress pages to make sure everything is readable under more conditions

That did it. Definitely a bug in WordPress, then. The Site Icon setting was only setting the favicon and was disabling the Site Logo setting, preventing it from showing. Clearing the Site Icon setting allowed the Site Logo block to show the setting and, additionally, set the favicon. Additionally, setting the Site Logo block also sets the Site Icon setting. So you can use one or the other but not both and setting the block also sets the icon. The result is that the two images must be the same

What’t the best way to clean gunk and grime up from a keyboard? Due to my oily hands, things around the home get a bit grimy due to the dirt they pick up 🙁

After a year, the biggest complaint I have with the monitor I got is that its stand is too tall and it has limited ability to lower the screen. Minor thing and easily fixed (I have a spare stand in the closet with adjustable height (sadly sadly, the manufacturer (Ergotech) went under a few years back 🙁 )), it’s just a tad obnoxious. Needless to say, I haven’t gotten around to remounting it yet 😛

Interesting changelog today:

6.3.0.1 – Jul 29 2024
* 🔥🐞Rest Disabled WP default Editor cache for REST requests to fix editor errors. (Shivam)
* Cache Supported cache_nocacheable.txt predefined settings.

The editor errors change is interesting. I wonder if it fixes some of the oddities we have during session timeouts?

Just finished reading Redshirts and it’s a brilliant piece of meta-fiction. Highly recommended if you enjoy riffing on writing flaws (I do enjoy bad movies, after all). 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Did some basic formatting of the first post. Still need to organize things by game and supply links to rule books, home pages, store locators, and the like but it’s progress!

Now we have three options!

Yep, definitely don’t want to have to use a chat room when I want to, say, get a schematic for wiring something. Can get pretty annoying. One of the reasons why our place exists!

There’s probably going to be some overlap with the blog categories but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. There may be some other way to display the categories, too. Will take a look at that. We could have the category link to product reviews in the navigation bar, for example.

[Spastic Hamburger]

Okay, started adding some links to the fan formats. The post is beginning to get enough content to warrant proper formatting so I’ll put that on the to-do list 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Thanks. I’m better with library and application level coding. 🙂

Probably worth a shot. Interestingly, their contact page says to post over to the plugins email. *grumbles*

I can always pester the folks monitoring that email address if need be. 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Windows at the moment. May try out gaming support on Linux at some point.

Yep, used to enjoy seeing their NMS posts over there. Starfield is on the wishlist but, from what I gather, it’s a completely different type of game. I’m sure I’ll try it out eventually 😛

The current expedition in NMS has you bug hunting. It reminds me of fighting the Zerg in StarCraft 😛

Great!

You should probably go ahead and play it. A lot of folks over here rave about it. And if you want something that’s just plain relaxing, here’s another one that folks seem to enjoy 🙂

Sorry! It got misinterpreted as HTML. I pick a random adjective and then follow that with a random noun. Makes for some fun names 😛

Yeah. Lately, I’ve been suffering from a lack of creativity and just feel like I’m thinking through sludge. Should get better once the heat starts to subside. My worst test results were always the ones at the end of the school year when Summer started up. I think best when it’s really cold outside. 🙂

May snag Golf with your Friends at some point to maybe start building a miniature golf course 😛

Looks like it was a simple typo in the article. They missed the “1” in front. 🙂

Been having some issues sleeping lately. Sinuses have been backing up during the night and been making it a tad hard to breathe. Quite annoying.

Trying to decide on a new electric razor is a bit of a pain. My old one from Philips broke after less than a year due to a lot of plastic in the construction (the foil got stuck in an angled position so was no longer safe). Too many options with too many price points. Looked online at reviews and the reviews lean towards the pricier models. 🙁

[Spastic Hamburger]

There’s an incomplete article on it over at the Codex. Looking it over, it seems like there’s quite a bit to consider and things could get hairy.

[Spastic Hamburger]

What bit of code did you use? Sorry, I’ve never been good at scripting languages. The hooking process always throws me for a loop. 🙁

Only JavaScript I’m able to do is basic stuff that doesn’t really interact much with the DOM. 😛

Are we sure it’s BuddyPress acting up, then? I thought it was bbPress that had sprung a leak
