We had some good ducting a few nights ago and got packets to cross 392km/243mi. It accidentally merged two different areas networks for a few hours. Pretty sure it's a record distance, too.

Wait... Options.BedMode.Off? Resonite has a BED MODE? Does this mean I can lay in bed and Resonite instead of sitting in a chair hurting my back??

Hey, critters. The media's interested in furries again. As someone who's been in the fandom for well over two decades and has worked as a journalist, here's a quick guide to Dealing With The Press: If a journalist approaches you, SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUC

Somebody explain why the rule is if you can't make rent, cut out the streaming apps, lattes, and avocado toasts." but it's never 'if you can't afford your workers a living wage, cut out the mega-yachts, rockets, and spaceships."

I have some browser-level redirects in place for certain age-assurange configuration files, and it does the job quite nicely. Probably doesn't help with the app unless you're going through a proxy server, though. Info here: gist.github.com/mary-ext/6e2...

Okay, that's two-for-two on similar foods. I love a glass of frozen peas. Or a mix of frozen peas and corn, if I want something more sweet. You sure you're not some gremlin living in my fridge? lol!

Ahh, read the replies. Not quite an onion sandwich, but eating the components of one in a single mouthful. Similar. I guess that's like making mouth-coffee, putting instant coffee, sugar and milk in your mouth in component form. Nothing wrong with doing that. :3

@sofurry.com So, I just heard the site is back online, but it's changed significantly. I can't find the subscriptions page. I found a "feed" page, but that's just filled with user comments, not submissions. Where do I go to see works people I follow post?

Mine: "AI is a harmful technology, not only for the environment, but also as a channel to control the populace. As people accept AI more and more, this gives power to the companies that produce AI products to introduce artificial biases to the population and control the information and narrative."

I don't like the new MegaLucarioZ design. He's just... meh. Too flashy, too much going on. I could tolerate MegaLucario, but the Z version is just too much.

This little snippet, right here, decompiled from .NET 4.8. The "Publisher" (read: your code signing cert) is the highest tier of evidence to identify your assembly. Calls to "IsolatedStorageFile.GetMachineStoreForAssembly()" on DIFFERENT assemblies signed with the came cert will collide.

MadManMarkAu ⚣ @madmanmarkau.bsky.social · 08/08/2025
Heads up .NET developers. I just discovered that Microsoft's Isolated Storage uses either a hash of your app's .exe path, or if your app is signed, uses a hash of your code signing cert to determine your assembly's Isolated Storage path. This means apps signed with the same cert HAVE THE SAME PATH!

This. All of my this. I watch tutorials at 2x speed, 1.75x if I'm tired, and slower if it's a difficult accent. Makes my co-workers give me funny looks, and our company CEO grin because he likes us to "use our time efficiency!".

Wish we could use git, but getting our previous manager/dev lead to learn how to resolve merge conflicts was impossible. Now we're stuck with TFS until we can get the time to migrate to git and retrain people.

MadManMarkAu ⚣ @madmanmarkau.bsky.social · 05/06/2025
Okay, yeah, I can see why that it needed in this instance. Wish the mappings/upstream were stored in the mapped folder, like the way git does it. And a proper branching feature, instead of trying to hack shelvesets to do experimental builds.

Tell that to our CEO. Jobs lay fallow until someone asks for a status update or complains, then suddenly our ticket priority queue changes and $CEO is the phone, "why wasn't this done?". My standard response is, "because you didn't prioritize it." It's always the shiny new jobs that get priority.

TFS is the bane of our existance at work. The again, part of that is that one developer who goes "Conflict? I know how to fix this! <take local>". But mapping 2 projects to the same location is *cursed*, lol.

Time to post it again.
A meme from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In the top panel, one man labeled "literally every company" hands a plate labeled "AI" to a man labeled "me." In the bottom panel, the man labeled "me" nonchalantly tosses the plate down the hallway, discarding it with casual disdain while the first man watches.

Had to write a system service that spawns a process on the currently active window station. This process searches for a particular window title, and if it sees a new instance of the window, forces a move to the primary monitor. Bug was preventing POS terminals from doing end-of-day process.

MadManMarkAu ⚣ @madmanmarkau.bsky.social · 22/05/2025
Totally agree. Wouldn't need an annoying workaround if the problem didn't exist in the first place. There's another bug on touchscreen kiosks that have a second, non-touchscreen display where sometimes a window will open on the secondary display and you can't move it to primary. No keyboard on them.

I know it's not a fix, but in a pinch it will get you out of trouble.

Hover over the icon on the taskbar to show the window preview. Right-click the window preview. Choose "Move" from the context menu. Press up, then left on your keyboard. The window will now be "snapped" to your mouse and you can move it anywhere. Does not work on tool windows or non-taskbar windows.

In #Resonite, the order of formatting commands are sometimes very important. did you know you can format text as "small caps", but using entirely lower case characters? Small caps, but not capitals. "<allcaps>Aa<lowercase>Aa"

"<sup><sup><sup>#</sup><sub>#</sub></sup><sub><sup>#</sup><sub>#</sub></sub></sup><sub><sup><sup>#</sup><sub>#</sub></sup><sub><sup>#</sup><sub>#</sub></sub></sub>" produces this.

So, I've been playing with the #Resonite text rendering/formatting, and I've found some cursed things. Supertext and subtext formats are cumulative. You can supertext things that are already supertexted, and they get double-supertexted.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.
