@Fragglemuppet Useful thing to know: Twitch chat is just IRC in fancy clothes, so if you have a client set up, you can connect that way.

@cwebber okay that's simultaneously very cool and would absolutely make me want to stab whoever implemented it after like the sixth time I accidentally moused off what I was trying to type into

@Polychrome honestly from what I can tell people just want to do as little setup and configuration as possible, and the people who make decent web hosting don't offer that...

This does not make me want to throw things through the window less when I play an indie game and the link to their mods repository is a discord link that opens me to a specific channel....

@whitequark @tubetime This is VERY incorrect. The only Trump appointment left a while ago. Biden appointed enough people to bring them up to normal members and gave them funding to help clear their backlog.

I can look up the Chemical and Engineering News articles on it if you'd like.

@whitequark @tubetime https://cen.acs.org/safety/industrial-safety/Chemical-Safety-Board-plots-new/102/web/2024/01

This has links to the whole saga. They put out an article everytime someone joins or leaves as it is of interest to the chemical industry

@xgranade @SRLevine Thought you two would enjoy this April Fools

Am I allowed to feel good for fixing SO MANY bugs today if I'm also the one who MADE the bugs?

#RealTimeChem #Programming

I am outside for the first time since Thursday, getting some sushi for lunch

@foone Do you often get games checking for this and introducing errors? I know CRPG Addict has had issues with cracked games where they would introduce problems if you bypassed the copy protection in the most obvious way

@Fragglemuppet I saw recently by a metafilter that someone had made a playlist entirely consisting of songs named Personal Jesus (and many, many covers of those songs)

@mekkaokereke I remember my Dad watching a documentary about the Tuskegee airman in WWII! They had some interviews with the survivors, it was really cool.

@cwebber wait what

@mekkaokereke In BC they put out news articles every season on how we have messed up the forests for the last 100 years by putting EVERY fire out, leading to really bad fuel build up.

@mekkaokereke Ok, that is a REALLY cool truck

@xgranade Ahhh, I didn't see that, I saw you posting jokes following up on @BestGirlGrace 's joke

@xgranade This made me think of you as you were posting bigO jokes today: https://xkcd.com/3026/

@xgranade no idea what you're talking about, but I'm going to pretend that you're talking about the owl from Animal Crossing as that makes me smile

@xgranade I mean wasn't 1988 the height of the Japanese boom economy? I think the appearance of the scary Japanese corporation in Die Hard was not a coincidence

@xgranade ??? Isn't Due Hard a late 80s movies? It do you mean one of the sequels?

@xgranade

Only if you hold it there! I mean, my Mom let us use beeswax candles for Ukrainian Easter eggs when I was a little kid, it's pretty hard to burn yourself.

AND since I've got the video handy: Lesson one you learn when doing glassblowing: Toching fire
