My main use case is “hey, I need to make a change to this system I touch once a year. The documentation is thorough, dense, and I don’t know where to look. What button do I push to do Y?”

Are you my boyfriend/roommate?
Edit: he and I are both IT folks, but he handles all the Windows issues in the house. I handle Linux issues. He handles the router because it’s closer to his desk so it’s easier for him to threaten.
I’m estranged from my mom’s family, but I found out my cousin’s kid is queer and now we email back and forth. Kid is in high school and I think it does him good to know he’s not the only queer person in the family. His mom’s decent, we just didn’t have much of a relationship because my cousin’s mom sucks so much.
Edit: and his mom knows we correspond, she’s cool with it.


The creator is active on a professional slack I’m on and they’re lovely and receptive to user feedback. Their tool is very popular in the online archives/cultural heritage scene (we combine small budgets and juicy, juicy data).
My site has enabled js-free screening when the site load is low, under the theory that if the site load is too high then no one’s getting in anyway.
My understanding: dairy cows interact with humans on a regular basis, for dairy stuff. Beef animals don’t interact with humans nearly as much.
Ever since I ordered a 7-cheese macaroni and cheese side dish that lovingly named each cheese and didn’t mention it had chunks of bacon mixed in, I ask to be sure.
Fuck you, Applebee’s.

I don’t think they read it or else they’d see it’s a literature review. Those don’t tend to have “controls”, they instead summarize multiple studies on the sane topic to see if anything interesting come up.
My (academic) library does. We send out a student worker with a laptop on a book cart to scan all the books on a shelf, then the next shelf, etc. The system flags if anything is missing or out of order, so the student can fix the order right then.
When I worked in a public library, every librarian adopted a section of shelves and, when it was quiet, went and made sure it was in proper order.


Please let me invert y-axis for games where I control the field of view. Nothing takes me out of a game like suddenly staring at my feet when I try to look up.


I had a nightmare that I was taking a full load of grad classes in a discipline I’ve not touched in 15 years, along with working full time. My dream character was weirdly optimistic about my time management skills.


[not the person you asked]Colleges are having a rough time of it in today’s political environment, so keep an eye on that, too.
Does you college library subscribe to the Chronicle of Higher Ed? I find it neat to read the headlines, see what other people are thinking on.


My undergraduate school didn’t assign grades below a C. If you did piss-poorly, the class just didn’t show up on your transcript. This encouraged me to take classes I might otherwise have avoided, if I was worried about my GPA.


I’ve heard obesity is a protective element in older age: less likely to break bones and such even in a fall. I’m also curious about the statistics for fat folks in crashes.


The bits where skin touches skin. Like in the crotch or under the breasts.


Luxury is drying your folds with a blow dryer in winter.
I use a horipad-brand wired switch-style controller on PC. I use it because it fits better in my hands/ergonomics. I have a post-it note on my monitor reminding me of the button layout.


I know a few trans librarian acquaintances who got the fuck out of Florida because the legal environment was getting too spicy. So yes, generally agree that if you fear criminal prosecution for doing your job something is wrong. In the trans librarian case, it’s Florida. In Doge’s case it was their behavior.
Not sure where I’m going with this, thinking on which set of folk feared repercussions enough to change something (environment or behavior)

Agreed, it’s gross seeing poo bags on the trail.
I have a dog. I scoop the poop. I use bags that claim to be compostable and I put them in the bin. I don’t like carrying a full poo bag. That’s why I have a little scent proof zippered I hang from my leash. I don’t leave the bag on the side of the trail and lie that I’ll totally pick it up on my way back.
At home I use these magic corn based ones that dissolve in the toilet.
