This is why I don't use IDEs
I type some stuff, realize that JSON wants the thing to be a string, so I add a " to the end of the line. The IDE adds two "s instead of one.
I notice after I go back to the beginning of the line, and have added a " at the beginning of the string.
Fine.
I go to the end of the line, and I remove a "
I run the thing
Turns out the IDE removed both "s
Because fuck you

I'm currently considering using edbrowse but too busy to onboard a new simple tool
Thinking about a tabletop RPG licenses CC-BY-ND, imagine how fucking bonkers that would be!
You can give away the book, and make supplements, just not use verbatim text *if and only if* it's in a supplement.
It would be so good. It would be literally worth it to just... bundle the entire game *as an appendix* for each 3rd party supplement
Thinking, as I collect the information to enroll the oldest in kindie, about my unusally bad school experience and I want to honour the vow I made to myself to find alternatives if things go badly for either of the kiddos
My mom was supportive in almost every way but she couldn't afford alternatives and so I had to go. But I think if my kid calls home every day, something is wrong and I have better opportunities than she did to do something about it

"Daddy I'm afraid of ghosts!"
"Well, some people think ghosts are electromagnetic phenomenon, so you could use other em waves to beat them, like a photon, do you have a device that shoots photons?"
"I can't find my flashlight, can I use my crane?!"
"Yeah, your crane has a magnet in it, so it disrupts emfs, which is Electromagnetic Fields, and magnets change those!"

He has a book that blinks LEDs via a light sensor, and we've done some mirror experiments and stuff to explain that light must be real

Sorry, I'm trying to make the larger point.
There's a company called USAopoly that just... makes knockoff Monopoly, because Parker Brothers owns the pictures of a train and the free parking picture, not the rules of Monopoly.
The main thrust of this is basically, "Wizards barely owns shit, and they're throwing a fuck of a fit over how they wanna get paid more"
I think we're saying the same thing but not quite getting it, I dunno. It's when you say "Public Domain" which this isn't even, this is freer than that.
I also bought a half dozen copies of Fate Accelerated when it came out - something to give everyone - but Fate also has a *wonderful* character creation engine for letting people do the work quickly.
Also - Fate is also definitely a gold standard for that.
Unrelatedly: I think that SRDs are layed out for referencing a known system - I want a document for onboarding a player who is making a character after a GM has already sold them on the game.
Don't get your security advice from me, since I'm not an expert....
But thinking a lot about how you need to place your trust somewhere for the web to work, and what seems really important is in deciding who and where to place your trust.
For this and many others, I really need to find a way away from Facebook and Google (personally don't hate Netflix yet although willing to listen, and already migrated away from Apple and Amazon). I am determined too, just slow moving

Hey all, it's winter
So this is me sending vibes of love and kindness and vitamin d your way
And reminding you that if you have vitamin d in the house you can take it during the winter and it might help. Or if you have a full spectrum light bulb that can help even more ❤️
Now that December is over, it always hits me harder too, so take care and stay safe and know I'm wishing you the best

LXC is just the linux container thing - it's a thing docker wraps
Basically LXC is jails to docker's iocage if you know what that is (you being a BSD person instead of a Linux person I assume the different knowledge base is there, but I dunno)

2) Don't know what to call "a person I work with a lot"
@silverwizard It's a saluting emoji: emojipedia.org/saluting-face/
It's a joke I learned in How I Met Your Mother, every time someone uses either "major" or "general" you salute while repeating the hypothetical officer name.

I use Discord as a concession to group chats for those that refuse to use XMPP or Delta Chat
I use Slack because work and it's not really my choice
Oh, they can refuse to use DeltaChat by just... not using DeltaChat and only doing email - and me not wanting to be a jerk - since DeltaChat does a lot of things like "sending Message Read notifs" and stuff, which is real bad.
But also - my sister isn't using it so she just gets spammed by my family group chat and keeps up via email. But DeltaChat is kinda too feature creeped to be a good experience out-of-app
Been watching Forever Knight (a vampire show from the 90s about how cops are perfect, especially when they are attacking queer people, that a bunch of people have told me is really good, and I'm not feeling it, but keeping watching since possibly first season blues...)
And the beginning of every episode they're like "He wants to emerge from his World of Darkness" in the least trademark infringing way possible in 1992.

But it looks like Apple and Amazon have it streaming
It feels like a show that's perfect for anyone who knows what "Afters" is for in a diner at 2 am without ever getting drunk. Someone who remembers looking up pricing fangs and going "nope". And anyone remembering fighting about when to Roll Frenzy.
All of which I 100% do.
I own Kindred the Embraced on DVD!
I love the Highlander Show - the basic premise of the Immortal Western with a weird strict moral core and a focus on home and family is just so tense as a theme, it really shouldn't hold together, but somehow it just does!
I don't know Silk Stalkings... But yeah - I love what I've heard call the "90s DoGooder Show". There's a mostly normal world with a single magical thing who does good.
I feel like Buffy and then Supernatural really changed that entire genre to make it not really the specific thing it is. But you can super see Arrow or The Flash in Forever Knight, and that connection is fun.
There's a Live Action Witchblade show which uh... confounds me but definitely is on my to-watch list.
Unfortunately 2 kids mean I watch shows at approximately 1 episode/week.

Were you able to restore it?
