I was pretty disappointed when I saw that.

The pain

one time in Skyrim, my kid killed a chicken in the middle of the night and was warned that they'd been witnessed

they killed another chicken and were told that the witness had been slain

maybe this is the sort of motivation for this example

it's why it's one of the two hardest things in programming, after all:

caching, naming things, and off-by-one errors

I couldn’t remember my luggage combo but I forced it closed, knowing I could brute force my way in at the hotel. I started at 000, then 001, 002 etc

This was the combo.

I love it, and also as a resident of Albuquerque, it makes me extra happy.

The bookstore in the opener is my closest B&N.

The Sprouts is literally a half mile from my house.

So fun on top of an already amazing show.

My two corgis, side by side, looking almost like one is a smaller clone

They look related but they’re not of any shared parentage and like five years of age apart πŸ˜‚

I just went to buy one and it’s sold out. I’ll have to stick with my actual corgi. πŸ˜‚ 😭 πŸ˜‚

YouTube video by Brian Sinclair Fuser still works on Nintendo Switch 2

Fuser (a rhythm game from a few years ago) apparently still works well on the Switch 2! youtu.be/X-ABN67a-ak

I am walking down the street at 10pm in Hakone, in Japan. It is mostly dark and quiet, and I am alone.

I feel so relaxed and peaceful, a small reprieve to myself at the end of a challenging day.

My final destination of 7-11 awaits, where I will get supplies to soothe my child’s cold.

Happy birthday! You’ve been one of the best sources and it’s a shame I didn’t sub earlier. Thank you.

I started a new job today, and it's kind of amazing the level of comfort that brings. I'd been employed for 22 years straight (ignoring weekends between jobs) and losing mine in July was jarring.

However, it also seems like it was maybe the best thing for me.

Depending on the nature of the travel, though, I quite like the travel part. Maybe not 100% of all of it, but I generally enjoy flying and I'd love to do a real train trip someday, and I love road trips so much.

I lived out there in 2001 when I worked for AOL, lived in Herndon and worked in Reston. Some very fond memories. 😊

(Some rough ones too, 2001 was a rough year to live there after September πŸ˜…)

it makes me so happy to find out you're on this site in addition to X - I've missed all the unhinged stained glass and still absolutely love my dumpster fire buddy

this is part of why I love playing games on my Steam Deck. Having two trackpads within comfortable reach of my thumbs is the best.

This is true for my kids too. I took their mom’s name, not the other way around. Their mom’s β€œmaiden name” is their last name.

(I also haven’t found a masc version of β€œmaiden name” to describe my pre-marriage name)
