Huh, TIL that Friendica will automatically split long bsky replies into separate posts. 😅

My ideal keyboard is 80% (TKL) layout, north facing LEDs, shine-through keycaps, volume knob. (3/3)

Which creperie is it? Roule Galette is my weapon of choice when in Melbourne.

Isn't afterpay a bit like a credit card: if you can afford it, you don't need it?

Was there a "Fuck! Where did my mail go?!" moment of panic?

A vote for dark teal from me. There is no reason for it having to be either blue or green.

(Also, I can now confirm that I can reply to bsky posts from within Friendica, I guess that's one less browser tab I need...)

I know the feeling. I'm comfortable in long sleeves here (DoE), and enjoy lunchtimes as an opportunity to go outside and defrost.

This sounds a lot like rewarding bad behaviour...

Could be far, far worse: you could be using cloudformation instead... 😭

Well it *is* all about the balance between determining which letters are/aren't in the word, and actually making guesses for the word (and how far one can push their luck in either direction). :P

It sounds like a case of "Oh, we should use usize wherever possible! *later* Oh wait, no".

I think context-dependent types (a la POSIX's time_t, size_t, off_t, etc) would be better.

I don't think friction from explicit number size conversions can be completely eliminated though.

Huh. I don't recall noticing that when I was writing C (or Perl!) regularly. But I see other folks have noticed: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operato...

I do think though that the bitwise operators belong above add/sub (but below mul/div).

Maybe it would be more more economical to buy a whole radio that you can raid for parts...

Biscoff is where it's at, IMO. At least until it becomes too popular and therefore overdone.

I think it's safe to say that listing only 7 artists can only provide a vague (at best) indication of my musical taste:

Anne Annie
BADBADNOTGOOD
Daft Punk
James Blake
Pink Floyd
Supertramp
Tara Clerkin Trio
