Started a new game in NMS (I really need to stay on a single game for more than a few weeks :P) and started in a system with an Earth-like planet. Going to explore it soon now that I need to return to the system and will likely toss a base on it. In another system, there’s a very mountainous desert world that I quite like the aesthetics of. I’ll probably toss a base on that one as well 🙂

Edit:

Did some looking and NMS doesn’t include planet cores. They’re just empty space surrounded by bedrock that you can’t dig through. 🙁

Yep, Scalzi does use some colorful language. Part of what gives his books their charm! 😀

Yeah, Star Wars reviews are all over the map. That’s not even taking into account the changes made with each subsequent release. Han shot first!

Then there’s the debate whether or not Star Wars is science fiction or space opera. Space opera is a subgenre of science fiction so it’s actually both. One could argue that it’s more of a fantasy film, though, as it takes place in an area where Earth doesn’t exist.

Ooh, the art style reminds me of Battle for Wesnoth. Really wish I could get a good tabletop RPG group going. Each time I try, the other folks just stop showing up after a session or two without explanation. /shrug

Always sad to see a tree get hit hard. 🙁

Been getting a ton of storms over here. With the heat, though, the water has been evaporating faster than it can fill up the reservoirs so the water level isn’t too high.

Also just noticed the other day that NMS quotes John Scalzi when you die. Never noticed before!

Lately, I’ve been having fun with creating a name using this format: . Could create a name generator for it but that wouldn’t be nearly as much fun! 😛

Sadly, insurance had stopped covering the only medication that worked for me so the cost became too prohibitive. Did try others but nothing else had an effect. 🙁

I only have mini replicas of those. They don’t sound good at all but they look cool on the shelf 😀

Sounds good 🙂

Do need to get back to it but got a bit distracted by my dog’s surgery back in April and then a few other things came up, such as working on the site theme. That and I got distracted by researching plasma containment. Did I mention I have a short attention span these days? 😛

In all seriousness, will definitely get back to it. Part of the holdup is that I’m kind of waiting on the next release of PopOS, which should be in a couple of weeks, just in case the upgrade goes sour and I need to reinstall yet again. Didn’t want to install too much outside of the necessities in case I had to wipe the system again. Doesn’t mean I can’t continue researching the Pi and Jetson, however. Will get back on that once I make some more headway on the site theme. 🙂

I also found this kit in my news feed a couple of weeks ago that may be worth looking into. A little bit pricey but could help with learning the ropes of the Pi API.

An old classic:

Yeah, I’d consider it a security issue with the plugin as it’s leaking private data. I honestly don’t understand their reasoning here

Sounds good. Hopefully they’re able to forward it to them 🙂

Internet is fine. Just had to reboot the mesh. Somehow, one of my nodes got confused and was suffering from severe packet loss which was confusing the whole network over here. Rebooting it fixed the issue 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Thanks, see it now. Another artifact of the 6.6 update. Looks like I missed a :root style. Will catch it!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Sorry, thought they had BuddyPress enabled and PMs set up.

Yeah, Slack could be worth looking at. It was actually one of the services I looked at before setting us up with Teams. Will give it another looksie once my internet connection stabilizes (super slow today so I think they’re doing some work on the network).

Yeah, it sounds like trying the plugins email may be the way to go. Everything else is a bit too public for my liking.

[Spastic Hamburger]

Could I see a screenshot? I think I’m missing it

Still wish I could figure out why the post form in groups gets cut off but I haven’t been able to get it figured out yet. 🙁

Will keep looking!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Even though NMS keeps receiving ongoing support, I really wouldn’t mind if it got paid updates if it meant even bigger and better updates.

[Spastic Hamburger]

Mental health update time? Been a while since we’ve done one.

Anyways! As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been doing much better lately and my brain has begun rebooting and getting back to work. Been playing No Man’s Sky off and on to keep from overdoing it in between sessions. Still having some trouble focusing but that’s not going to go away without my medication so I’m going to see what else I can do to try and manage it. Going to pick up a clock radio of something similar soon as background music used to help tremendously.

Yep, realize it’s still slow going but progress is progress, right?

On a completely different note: any updates on any of the other projects that have been in the deep freezer?

[Spastic Hamburger]

Sorry about the very delayed reply!

I think it may be something that bbPress needs to tweak to play nice with the search function. Sending JJJ a message now that they’ve been doing some development may be a good idea. They also have a history of doing some work on Core so perhaps that’d streamline the entire report?

What order did you want the links in the navbar to be in?

Not sure how RT works but I think it mostly pulls from older reviews so it can be a bit problematic when sentiments change.

Saw Death Race 2000 finally and it was fun. Weird film but fun 😛

Didn’t Egghead make a “die laughing” joke in that episode? I think so 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

That’s a BuddyPress page. Looks like it has some specific properties that don’t show up in the page editor. If you go to the page directly, it shows a list of groups. It’s similar with the members page. May be worth adding them to the navbar at some point and it looks like they also need styling. Will add that to the to-do list!

Yeah, I haven’t updated the stylesheet for the BuddyPress changes yet. Probably should do that next 🙂

Overall, the theme is really starting to come together nicely 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Change of plans! Crystal Wing is staying in the Blackwing deck! Was about to be backed in a corner yesterday so I used Small World to swap some cards out that ultimately let me bring out Crystal Wing, letting me clench the game. Still perfecting this deck but we’re getting closer!

[Spastic Hamburger]

These days, the materials have advanced enough where you don’t really need to do that anymore. I have some old sleeves lying around that stick together a lot so they’re definitely on the replacement list. Been slowly cannibalizing the cards from that old deck for new stuff. Who knew cards themselves got hungry 😛

Sounds good. Will look into adding some information on fan formats. 🙂

One thing that’s missing is a list of cards from each major fan format. May have missed it, though. Would be very nice to have to keep from having to look stuff up meticuously.

Haven’t run across that one before! I do have fond memories of playing some old ones on Kongregate years ago back before the site was partially killed off. Will take a closer look at it!

Wiki’s got a pretty extensive list of some card games that are lesser known in the West, along with historical games.

Banner is fixed…somewhat. Can’t adjust the width because they didn’t use an img element. They used a bit of a hack: they used an empty paragraph and set its background so it contains no content, meaning I can only set its width to numerical values instead of scaling with the content. At some point, we’ll probably want to collect the gripes and send them to the individual developers 😛

Begin edit:

I suppose I could remove the fallback background color. May mess with images that use transparency, though. Didn’t think of that earlier

End edit

What would the Emporia and Bazaar pages contain?

Sorry about the banner. Curse my attention span! Getting better at managing it, though.

It looks fine on mobile so it’s probably set to stretched in the properties. I’ll see if I can find the right override for it.

Can fix the navigation bar, certainly. What order do you want things in?
