Bouncy Dog is classic small dog, in that he greets other dogs with some variant of “I’ll bleep*ing kick your *bleep, you bleep bleep!”
Other small dogs generally respond with “Not if I bleep you first, bleep! bleep bleep bleep bleep”
Large dog responses are more like “oh it’s the weird little dude. Hey weird little dude, what’s up? Want some tea?”

Thing is Bouncy Dog gets on great with other dogs once introductions are out of the way. It’s just that he’s terrible at introductions.

Got a conveyer built long enough that it takes five minutes for the “delivered” graph to catch up with the “produced” graph.
The #Shapez achievement is “I need trains” which yeah I can see that.

I will always put the publishing date on my blog posts and their URLs because I’m not trying to waste anyone’s time with reader-hostile SEO garbage.

Bet you can’t guess what kind of outdated but improperly labeled link I just clicked to prompt a micro-rant like that.

Found debug printing insufficient and ran pytest --pdb to use the debugger on test failure.
Who even am I anymore.

@grmpyprogrammer but I don’t wanna be part of the squad I wanna be weird and iconoclastic and the sort of person that makes neighbors say “it’s always the quiet ones isn’t it?”

@pdcawley easy enough while I’m on primarily one system. For my partition-bouncing habit, I’ve got some ideas with building a history file from git and stat.

@gamingonlinux I have to remind myself how big Pokemon is — across multiple generations — to partially explain how a game concept like this would appeal to people.
Because I’m drawing a big “meh” on Palworld, but that was my reaction when Pokemon came out too.

@IamMrsGeek all of us slept so restless that I’m wondering if weather has something to do with it!

@hazelweakly I joke about having seen another clone of a previous manager with some frequency, because every person’s unique but there sure are a few popular templates to start from.

Hm. There was a power outage last night and now the PC won’t turn on. This does not seem good.

@IamMrsGeek Yep! Started by making sure it was plugged in first even though THAT HAS NEVER ONCE BEEN AN ISSUE THAT I FORGOT TO CHECK FOR IN THE PAST (awkward cough)
Have also tried different outlet and different power cable. Then spent a few minutes fiddling with the laptop setup, since I haven’t hooked it up to the monitor since before the previous job.
