Today's dubious sounding business seen on the side of the road:
"Budget Batteries"
also for some reason you can't use revivify scrolls on non party members, which is a real "Phoenix down stops working in cutscenes" feel
Current attempt at a quest in BG3 had the most D&D resolution ever
Everyone involved except the party died, including the people I was trying to save. Oops.

(and then a Stellar's Jay swooped in a moment later and stole a bunch of the peanuts :D I'd feel slightly bad except the crow had a friend who was bullying a flicker away from the suet feeder)
Weirdly trusting crow out there today. Stood on the hook holding the birdbath up the entire time I was putting out peanuts.
Usually they flee the instant the screen opens and come back later, this one was chilling less than a foot from me!

Wood Elves aren't made of wood. Sea Elves aren't made of water. M'aiq still wonders about High Elves.
Moon last night was a blood red crescent with all the smoke. very striking but I wasn't in a good angle to get a photo:(

@rodhilton This led me down a rabbit hole of how to block crap sites from Google search results and discovering uBlacklist. It works with multiple search engines, including DDG if you need to fine-tune things to avoid junk sites. You can even have subscription lists for maintained blocklists so you're not doing it all on your own.

Hawai'i Magazine's list of orgs to donate to to help folks in the Maui fires. Skip Salvation Army - they're anti-queer, etc.

In case the news hasn't made it to here yet: If you support creators on Patreon, PLEASE check your pledges & payment info!
Patreon major slipped up & loads of creators have lost a good chunk of their income due to charges marked as fraudulent. Many supporters have been completely removed too & have to re-sign up to creators' pages.
Please spread the word, artists & creators have it bad enough as it is without Patreon making things worse. x/

the enshittification of websearch has really made me cherish software that have manuals both online and offline
(discord is not a manual btw, if you make me join your discord i will throw you into the sun)
Random 2am discoveries: water has the alternative name of oxidane, which seems *much* better for pranks than dihydrogen monoxide.

Things to do with a time machine:
fond whoever decided insipid TV news was the most appropriate "background noise" alien waiting rooms and smack them with a wet fish, followed by 30000 hours of listening to this shit in a row no breaks
this brought to you by waiting room news reporting on the Trump indictments by just going "x says y, z says a" literally the laziest possible "news".

@Phorm I think one of your fellow genies set up a front near my place :D
I'm sure it's totally fine
Being up before sunrise in summer is *weird*. this is waaaaay too early. @.@

hey did you know you can watch youtube videos with mpv if you have yt-dlp installed? with a single command?
like this:
mpv 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSnrQBfBCzY'
oh, and while we're at it, did you know that channels have an RSS feed you can subscribe to with any RSS reader?
like this:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCy0tKL1T7wFoYcxCe0xjN6Q
or this:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user=phreakindee
definitely don't do any of this though! it would certainly be a shame if everyone could just watch youtube videos without ever visiting the site...

Today's entry in "the ethics review for this was must have been *fascinating*, I found a study from 1998 that exposed 30 infants to air with 15% oxygen. normal air has 21%.
the idea was to study SIDS, apparently
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC28490/
CPU coolers are something else. Stop game, CPU temp drops 20c in 15 seconds. o.O
Yes it's not making heat, but even taking an inert bit of metal down that fast is impressive as hell. Side effect of needing to cool something that's a couple inches wide and sucking down 70-120 watts I suppose.
