iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

OK, it looks like it wasn't an ADO bug. It's a VPN bug, I was booted out w/no error message. It's happening to others, so it's not just me. Guess that means I play Rimworld while testing every 10 minutes for a reconnect.

Wrote a very detailed analysis of a bug, how it happened, why it happened, and how to look for other parts of the code where the same error pattern may manifest.

So, just wondering, do people generally understand the "albatross around their neck" reference? I realize I use it a lot, and I'm wondering how many people had to read that poem in High School, or the many MAD parodies of it?

Under Donald Trump and Kash Patel, FBI agents are far more likely to have their personal data stolen and posted on the internet. But they're now allowed to have sex with farm animals. The administration's defenders say it's net neutral.

Nothing like having an electrician come through when you're already paying 17K for flood damage, saying "Oh, that's illegal, you can't have that, we have to rewire this, and why aren't you all dead yet?" I'm at the "Surely, not ALL of those Nigerian Princes are phony, right?" stage of desperation.

I usually hit my limit of managing the little neurotic sociopaths when I get 10-12 of them. I can't imagine doing this, nor getting a base this neatly laid out. My bases all sprawl ridiculously as they grow.

When Betsy DeVos took over the Department of Education under Trump in 2017, she immediately began lobbying to make it more difficult to hold rapists accountable for their actions under Title IX. Many, many women wrote about it extensively at the time, including your truly.

This is a class ability for a Pathfinder 1e "Noble" type class for a space opera game. I am currently calling it "Pull Rank". However, I am considering "Do You Know Who I Am?" or "I Demand to Speak To Your Supervisor". I would like feedback on which name is best.

The Elite reminds someone lower in the social hierarchy of that fact. They may use their Diplomacy skill in place of Intimidate to bully someone, and gain a +1 to the check (increasing with higher levels) if the target is their level or lower.

As they've made very clear in on the record interviews, they consider anyone who is a non-citizen, regardless of their actual legal status (working papers, student visa, refugee) to be a "criminal" because they are "here illegally" (even if they're following the law). So it's a meaningless claim.

I'd mentioned that fandom has always been somewhat toxic, but the site I relied on to prove this had gone dark. Fortunately, I found a similar site (link following). So here's a 1935 article declaring the genre dead. No new ideas, we're done.
