I'm always going to be surprised
I have a manila envelope in my house. With a 50 page report from the police accountability board. Saying that police should pull weapons on anyone they suspect are mentally ill.
I will never not be surprised.

Ok, so, I really don't know if I like Player Facing games, where the GM doesn't roll dice.
Person boxed in by enemies and my first thought is "Kick their asses, you'll probably roll enough partial successes to rarely take damage, you'll be fine"

@DuanBailey Definitely wasn't *directed*, but I think I made most of my thoughts clearer (although exhaustedly garbled) last night
Ok, I like the #Remarkable2 tablet as an eReader. I also like it as a writing pad.
This is bullshit. Why is a device this nice? Am I just gonna have to admit that sometimes people make good technology?

@Tracid089 Also I think Pokemon Let's Go is Pokemon Go attached or something?
Man, I just really wanna play Pokemon Stadium
But yeah - I definitely don't wanna end up pay $100 for a video game

@HippyWizard They’re semi-related. My understanding (I could be wrong) is that Pokémon Let’s Go can get you the Pokémon Go exclusive Pokémon Meltan - but Pokémon Go does not benefit Let’s Go at all - or maybe you can transfer across games regardless?
there's just no *point* to these people
no platform you give them will lead to them saying anything other than "help, help, i'm being censored" and "[incoherent racist noises]"

@HippyWizard None of the issues with Parler ever would have happened if they had a form of identity verification implemented.

Bingo. This is the ultimate manifestation of something started long ago, by the John Birch Society onward. The modern right had a history of selling lies or half-truths before, they just did it with a slight whiff of professionalism, allowing a despot to bring it to it's natural state on January 6th.

Bah - figuring out how to get ssh keys into my friendica chroot and server was such a pain
This entry was edited (6 days ago)
were you doing that from windows or linux? I think I did that through windows with the following:

I have a linux server with a chroot, and a different user, so I couldn't even copy my agent or something. And it wanted valid keys for *github*, which, uh... bah.
Wasn't just copying the keys, was more figuring out which of many contexts they were being used in, and which user wanted the permissions. But thanks.

@efagirard I am personally pretty unhappy with the amount Arch Linux and SystemD enter my life, Linux is really falling over these days

@HippyWizard probably. but your lives have been uppended by the pettiest, dumbest bullshit. stale memes, basically.
The seditionists that invaded the Capitol today wore a Punisher logo. I say @Marvel needs to either aggressively enforce their trademark so it isn’t printed everywhere or abandon the Punisher completely. You can’t allow your characters to be used by terrorists.
"Could it happen in Canada?" ask people who clearly haven't been paying attention to what's been happening in Canada.

Python docs: Don't use getopt it's dumb, use argparse
Argparse: Documentation is for suckers
I used getopt

I used getopt
Argparse has a lot of words documenting it. I do not find them good at explaining it.
For example, what is the return values of parse_args? How do I make a - command?

Hi! I'm on a DevOps team! This means we put everything in a PR cycle!
So now you need to review a 10000 line PR, which can't be split up, and changing any character ruins it.
Oh, except the one character that's a subtle bug I didn't notice.
Good luck!
