Thanks for the suggestion!

Say more about shoulder harness? I think that's what I'm looking for...

All of the interior will be visible - the purpose is to make a 2 dimensional frame for my face, so don't even need the rest of the box if I can figure out how to suspend the frame

One year I went as a kelp forest, with helium balloons holding up the kelp. God Damn helium balloons are insulating!

"...police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added."

Am I a joke to you?

I bought the basic anova Sous Vide setup off Amazon. It took a month to arrive, but works great.

La Quinta?

I'm starting in on sketches of what I want my mask to look like when finished.

Late, but present. I will be making.. A Halloween costume. It will be a wearable mask that covers my head and leaves my hands free. It will be open except on the front. I have no idea how I will do it yet, bit plenty of time to figure it out...

Needs fossilized banana for scale...

My main question is: what automates pushing new content to my Plex libraries and kicking off a library scan?

Seems like there are lots of apps that do similar things (monitor trackers for example). I just need one that moves content from \Data\Torrents\ to Plex:\movies and tickles it enough to trigger a scan.

Does Overseerr do this?

So, so good.

Interesting. Ombi means I don't have to run docker. How do you like it?

This is the way.

Derp. Corected typo. Bike box. But, yeah I am considering taking the box for a spin too...

I couldn't bring myself to spend hundreds on a bike box, at least not without more travel on the horizon. So card board it is. But... Wheels sound nice. So, I got some castors and trimmed some spare 2x6 and now... Wheels!

I just saw mangosteen in Chinatown Manhattan... First time seeing them in the us!!

Seattle year round commuter. For my current short commute: a rain cape (poncho).

• it's comfortable to wear both wet and dry
• easy on/easy off. Less fucking around trying to get geared up.
• I don't sweat through my clothes because it ventilates like crazy

So many more reasons, but good lord those 3 are reason enough. Putting on still-wet gear at the end of the day is nasty.

I also wear rain-legs. I wear wool socks and sneakers (1 less piece of wet gear to deal with). No gloves (cape deals with the rain and wind).

Good questions. I own priorities, my team owns operation. Fixing this is on our list of priorities, not high enough to get the amount of attention needed to really fix it.

We have 3 (three. Three!!) redundant monitoring and alerting systems and have yet to detect the issues routinely found by our customers. Its not because we didn't detect them, it's because we have so many false positives we stopped looking (but still run the monitors).

Uuuuuugffhhhhhj

There is a steel mill (recycling plant) in my town. They give tours every Friday. I have been 3 times, twice with teams of (software) engineers.

If you want to go see what engineering means when lives are on the line, tour a steel mill. Fucking amazing.

I really loved Ubik when I first read it. Good read for sure. Later readings made me think it was a bit pulpy, but that might have just been the cheap paperback edition I read from. I'll have to give it another shot.

Park tool has good, informative videos: park tool

Saint Sheldon Brown is one of the best, original sources for internet cycling knowledge.

Getting doored while out riding, then falling into the road and getting run over by a garbage truck.

I ride my bike a lot. Somebody getting out of the back seat of a 4 door with out looking is a huge danger.

Tentatively raises hand...

Her name is Selma the Safety First Chicken. She reminds me to not be a dumb ass. Also: Trail Angle attractor. She' very good.

Yes, several times. Surprisingly: my shortest surgery (10 min to remove a device) resulted in about 10 days of serious depression. A shrink says this happens about 10 percent of the time. I wish I'd known this in advance, I'd have opted out. I will be more cautious in the future.

You don't understand the depths of my shame.

I was in OS support for 5 years. I supported DOS 5.

I work with software Dev teams all day long, including designing highly available services.

And I do after hours tech support for elders (my folks) and house mates (my fam).

If anybody knows to reboot...

Well now I feel like an ass - this is what I'd tell my parents.

And yeah, that fixed it. I'm tempted to delete this whole embarrassing post, but I will leave it for the edification of others and to memorialize my shame.

I met Danny at my local coffee shop. I am a total ass and said "Abed?". He said " Danny. " and shook my hand. Thus confirming my status as Total Ass, and his as a mensch.

I'm in!

Ahh the Midnight Mellon Mounter

Once upon a time windows had absolute pathing. When you saved, it went in the directory you were in out where you told it.

Some time ago windows went to path relative to user. So now when you save to 'desktop' it could be one of several desktop folders. Windows tries to hide this by mapping 'desktop' to your user relative desktop, but it does this at the application level rather than in the base O/S. (Or, it does it on extended file system APIs). Some apps handle it, some apps don't. If you have multiple users on a PC, it's a mess.

The training program was 2x per week. For resistance training, they ran a set of machine based training, increasing resistance over time.

"3 sets of 10 repetitions as the main RT program on the following 6 weight-stack machines: leg curl, leg extension, arm curl, rowing, shoulder press, and chest press."

As an old dude, over been wondering what I can do to made my skin tougher.

I just sent a friend this very question. Tusks for the good suggestions! Moved to Open board + swipe and it sends great.

This is great! By far the best for swipe type.

Cold fusion.

I just finished 'Player of Games' - Ian M. Banks. I liked it, it felt immersive.

Just started The Passenger by the late great Cormac McCarthy. I'm about a 3rd through, listening on audio book via Libby (read at 85% speed). It's a little hard not to put it in the context of No Country and the border trilogy - Mr. M does seem to have a type. I'm pleased that many of McCarthy's liberties with words seem to come through on audio, but I imagine I'm missing a lot. All in all I'm enjoying it. Next up my book club is reading All The Pretty Horses, so I'm in for the ride as it were. (Weirdly, there was a longer wait for his other work than The Passenger. I guess people are in the wait and see mode).

A friend recommended Midlife by Kieran Setiya. I have to say - it's quite dense, and I feel like I'm not doing it justice. I'll definitely keep going.
