@mawr luck! Sounds like how I got my current job. Silence for nine months, interview, started 3 months later @.@

Recovery mention, Pain Complaining (-) 

@Phorm @Charlotte fun painkiller cheat code: Tylenol and naproxen are different types of drug. You can take them at the same time!

(offer valid *only* for Tylenol. you can't mix most other not opiate pain drugs with each other, but Tylenol is weird)

re: Update to earlier malware scare, Semi-technical, Seeking a tech/netsec opinion 

@Phorm @anthracite yeah given the hex stuff this is almost certainly a false positive. At a guess I think the AV may have actually been at fault here- it and Steam didn't play nice when it tried to scan a partially-downloaded file, which resulted in minor file corruption.

Just delete the .exe and redownload, see what you get.

re last toot- if you have a 3DS you're still using at this point, just ignore update prompts. Nintendo isn't adding features or fixing bugs anymore, just throwing in more crap.

If you have a 3ds that is not yet modded, do not update to the latest firmware. Nintendo just patched all exploits that have been commonly used to install custom firmware...

@electrickeet they did. harder to clean means you might just buy another :/

Tough article about the social effects of aging. 

@Charlotte that's good life advice in general. never tolerate being "one of the good ones"

Bunch of crows just about crashed a bald eagle right in front of the hous just now o.o

@mawr sadly that's smoke. Alberta is Very Toasted.

@Phorm @anthracite I will always plug these, they are amazing if unfortunately in and out of stock

@mcc @wademcgillis this applies to any data on the cloud IMO. I do hate how webmail discourages local backups

@mcc So many older Youtube videos are going to go poof too.

Game design thing that one wondered at:

Why do the Souls games have levels? it seems to make their design space harder in that you have to communicate to the player "you're under leveled " or "you aren't doing this right" instead of just the later

Okay, here is a userstyle to remove the "alt" penalty badge from mastodon.social. Install Stylus or scroll to "source code". Thanks to Tavy.

It's a little bit awkward (it might not work on Firefox without doing extra configuration), so I filed a bug asking for it to be given a unique class rather than reusing the GIF badge class.
