Or vet bills 😩

Jesus, it’s so inconsistent. I suppose that may be beneficial when looking at all of your folders at a bird’s eye view but my knee jerk reaction isn’t the most positive.

They could’ve stopped at step 3 but they gave you 8 more steps to feel like a true hacker.

Built in sobriety test, how nice!

08 Toyota FJ so we likely had the same sequence ✊

Hell yeah, I’ve been making G&Ts for my quick mixer over the past few years - it’s so good. That Earl Grey cocktail sounds absolutely divine for the last bit of warm weather we have here, thank you!

You joke but my old FJ Cruiser requires you to turn the key to accessory, turn it off, turn the key back to accessory, open and close the door three times, turn the key back off, turn the key to accessory while holding the odometer reset button for 5 seconds and then it will enter pairing mode for the remote fob.

It made me feel the same joy as pressing the option on my Android phone 5 times to enter development mode back in the mid 2010s but it gets old quick.

Yes! Your knowledge will last and it’s insane how many hobbies have coinciding skills. Keeping it fresh allows me to stay motivated and as long as I’m doing something, I couldn’t care less if it’s painting or soldering or whateverthefuckelse at that moment :D

What’s been your favorite cocktail as of recently to have on a normal night?

That sounds incredibly trippy to see in theaters at 6-7. Kinda jealous of your story!

Really, really depends on your option on a lot of things to consider that one.

Agent Cooper NOOO

I love when the deers play with the mooses and geeses

Eh, partially agreed but Adobe does have a stranglehold on the market due to proprietary encoding. The world still runs on their licensed filetypes and that’s a big hurdle for FOSS to overcome. A paradigm shift could happen but a lot is stacked up against it for now. Certainly not an issue that’s unable to be solved but we need some seriously clever minds dedicated to the problem.

Been working on a personal project to display my Spotify playing info onto a LED matrix display (with lots of visual goodies) and allow for physical buttons to control playback, lookup the artist on Wikipedia, open their bandcamp profile, and eventually to find what songs they do not have on Spotify.

It’s still in its infancy but it’s allowing me to work on blending software, hardware, and design all together in a fun, interactive way.

I don’t have a TV in my living room but listen to music 24/7 and my wife would like a way to see what weird shit we’re listening to.

I swear whenever I mention I need my Adobe programs everyone is so quick to offer alternatives but NOTHING will be an alternative to a .psd/.ai file made in Photoshop or Illustrator. I need to make vectors in Illustrator, texture then in Photoshop, send the layers to After Effects, make some more vectors in Illustrator, use the same psd in InDesign… I can go without the cloud or streamlined UI but I really need that interoperability layer to function. Any time spent fiddling is costing me money as a bottom line.

And as someone who’s been spending hours learning FreeCAD, you’re really hitting me where I’m sensitive 😅

Lovely reply; this is not the simplest answer but it’s the truth.

It seems to be about yelling at others that “you’re not a real programmer!!!” mixed with being so “technically correct” my eyes can no longer roll the same way they used to.
