I had to pack up the Wii and PS2 yesterday to make room for other stuff. Sad but I hadn’t used them in a few years.
To be fair, most of the games I have for them have been getting remastered so it’s not that big of a loss. Just makes me sad.

Fortunately, we have the Urban Dictionary to help fill in the blanks! Honestly, I don’t know what I’d do without it. I use a lot more than I used to π
And folks also call long sleeve shirts just, “sleeves,” which is weird. Are they being worn as a scarf, then? π
Mentioned this before but we should cover all of the roads, sidewalks, and bus depots with solar panels. Not only would it give pedestrians and drivers shade, it would also help generate electricity from places that are cleared anyways and don’t necessarily need the open sky. We’d need a light sensor underneath them and some low powered strip lights to help keep it from getting too dark in there
Here’s a bit of a mix for today:
Yeah, the CSS won’t cause it to not render.
We should probably apply the updates and see if they help any but we definitely want to wait a couple more days. If they don’t help, the next step is seeing what happens with all plugins disabled but I think we should try the updates first.
Got an old surge protector that’s ten years old. It still works as a power strip but, after ten years, its MOVs are probably suspect so I may disassemble it to see how it’s wired. Haven’t decided yet if I want to keep it as a strip or simply dissect it, though. Leaning towards the latter as I really want to know how it works outside of reading on the web π

Yep! Got it bookmarked! π
Lots of goodies on Amazon, too!
Ugh. Hopefully they get them fixed soon! I know people in my area also have trouble with their cable boxes. I wonder if they outsource to the same software developer?
Been watching the Vice Academy series. It’s absolutely horrendous. Of course, that means I find it very enjoyable! π
Really need to switch to holiday mode…. π

Oh, cool. Shout Factory has a good assortment of B-movies and other cult films in 4k: https://shoutfactory.com/collections/4k-uhd
The English language is quickly becoming incomprehensible with how quickly slang and definitions are evolving. For instance, someone was talking about their girlfriend’s partner the other day and added no context. Without context, this could mean business partner just as much as it could mean romantic partner. This is why I prefer the term significant other in terms of relationships. It makes things very clear. With how definitions are running together, it’s very hard to parse even when context clues are in place. I’m even having some issues understanding bits and pieces of newer books because of the lack of clarity. Then we have some humorous instances of a similar nature. Someone mentioned that they don’t like wearing pants. They meant long pants but a lot of people are just shortening it to pants now. It makes for some very weird interactions π
There is that. I just wish they would add a qualification that they’re just taking statements so that they can keep a closer eye on things or something to that effect. As it is, it sounds like they’re just entertaining the notion that the speculation itself has merit even though there’s no evidence. If there were actual evidence in government labs, it would probably be hard to keep it quiet. More than likely, there’d be pictures all over the place with the way the Internet is these days π
The full film has been pulled off YouTube for some reason and a basic search didn’t turn up anything. However! I found a clip! The clip is probably the important segment. Granted, the quality is too poor to make anything out myself. That and I know little about biomechanics. May send it to my mom, she used to do that sort of thing for a living π
Finally started exploring tech upgrades in NMS in the expedition. Going to need to explore them in my main game but they’re pretty handy! Just hard to find good ones since you need to check the merchant at each space station.
Nope!
So under the Posts page, there is an option to do a Quick Edit to the settings of each post. I simply had to add the posts to the proper categories. π
Here you go! π
Fun fact: in actuality, they ditched the lyrics for the final version as they felt they were pretty silly π
Ugh. Do you see anything in the logs that correspond to the time we try to load that section?
No idea on the REST API. Looks like it’s still enabled as we can load https://stearnvault.com/wp-json (a quick search says that REST controls the JSON output)

Granted, most of the stuff I watch has terrible scores on both IMDB and RT…. π
Bad movies are fun!
Haven’t gotten much chance to watch anything really noticeable lately as they were roofing next door. May switch over to holiday mode soon, though. In which case, I absolutely have to watch classics like The Star Wars Holiday Special and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians with a little bit of Christmas Vacation mixed in. Some of those are better films than others…. π
Sorry, I had forgotten to add the posts to the category so itβs showing up now. π
Looks like the style pack also got an update so weβll be having an update bonanza in a few weeks π
And, yep, the Pages category in the site editor is definitely broken for some reason. Sorry, missed that part of the post yesterday.

Sorry, I may have missed a step. Iβll take another look. π

Sorry, got the new category added. Meant to do it the other day but I’ve been slow lately. Just stay on me! π
Looks like mostly API features in addition to the new theme and other bug fixes mixed. Should we wait a bit?
Going well so far. Still waiting on the third book to become available but I’m really enjoying it π
I used Thunderbird! The interface for the news reader was pretty basic as I recall but that’s okay! Looks like there are some BBSs still around. As for the state of the content, couldn’t say. Just did a brief search and saw a few online but didn’t look to see what kind of stuff they host. π
Been browsing Textfiles.com again, which is always interesting.
π I can certainly ask! Tow hitch gets installed today so we can use it to haul the kayaks. π
A few decades ago, the Forrester was the station wagon. The current model looks nothing like it!
Looks like City Car Driving is getting an updated version in May so I may start with Beam.NG drive when it goes on sale and go from there. Or Euro Truck Simulator. Need to look into the latter more but it I think I read that it has good hardware support. It also has a ton of DLC but I may not need much of it, will need to take a closer look. Would also be nice to have something to mess around with outside of learning so I’ll take that into consideration. Will pick up the research again this weekend. π
Always sad to see a service fold. π
Weird that the Wikipedia page is so inaccurate. The issues have already been mentioned on the talk page so hopefully it’ll get changed

Sigh. These publicity stunts are only damaging the legitimate search. This is Roswell all over again. The difference is, in this case we don’t even have photos. Just some people making extraordinary claims. It’s all based on hearsay. I could say I’m from the Andromeda galaxy all I want but it doesn’t make it so. And, besides, I have nothing to back it up with. The end result is that it weakens the credibility of actual evidence. Unless there’s something to back it up, the US government really shouldn’t be hosting this stuff. It reminds me of the time when the FBI wasted time and money investigating Bigfoot: https://vault.fbi.gov/bigfoot/bigfoot-part-01-of-01/view
So I recently came across a couple of places that do restorations of vintage turntables:
No complaints here but I still may reach out to them at some point to see what they offer. No harm in that, at least!
Console input is pretty straightforward, you just need to include the input/output library. Here’s an example:
#include <iostream> int main() { int x; std::cout << "Enter a number: "; std::cin >> x; std::cout << std::endl << "You entered: " << x; return 0; }
Command-line arguments would also be handy but the language only has rudimentary support for them by default. There are third-party libraries that help to fill in the gaps with them, though.
For storing the set of proper case keywords, a set may be the best container to use. In the rename loop, check the word to see if it’s in the set using the contains member function. So I think I just inadvertently wrote the entire program here. Only thing missing is the actual code π
Using the built-in types like this would also make it completely cross-platform π
Sounds good π
