@gravecat oh and watch out for pawoo, it's some big japanese art site that onboarded a ton of people onto Mastodon, but post a lot of lolicon; a lot of instances block it but I'm not sure if main trunk does

I came across a cool video series called Scribble Kibble, where the host showcases an awesome animation and then explains/appreciates a lot of the techniques behind it. SK for LB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCIvOe1vg9I https://awoo.space/media/pcXgv6wzeOVDuYNavt8

That's not the end of my shower-related shenanigans. I have also hacked this shower head to remove the flow restrictor (bottom left) thereby allowing it to dispense more than 2.5 gallons of water per minute, making it ILLEGAL (don't tell anyone) https://awoo.space/media/TVaoGSW7UzkVHrxL_fQ

@gravecat Oh, a non-obvious getting-started trick, if you're following Mastodon links around, and see something you want to Favourite but it's in the display-ish format and not your own Tweetdeck-like client, you can paste the URL into the Search box to get it to show in your web client, for further use there.
Since I'm new here (I've been shitposting for years on Twitter: https://twitter.com/gravecat), I think these images sum me up pretty well.

@gravecat Welcome! 🍍
"At my funeral, I want the organist to start playing "Pop Goes the Weasel" really slowly, until everyone is staring at the coffin in dread"
So many projects I want to do, so little motivation.
1 Build audio dice roller accessible to visually impaired
2 Learn Python for something useful later maybe
3 Write a short text adventure game to familiarise myself with the process
4 Develop a plot for a Transformers tabletop RPG
5 Learn more Spanish
6 Vacuum
I'll probably never get around to these, been wanting to do them for years...

The transportation maintenance is a bug/feature of this version of the game. Normally if unfunded roads or rails deteriorate and randomly turn into rubble. But this version, whether intentional or not, when you use a road/rail+powerline, it won't deteriorate at all. So I can use all rail as long as I overlay power lines over them, and they won't deteriorate. #gameing
Oh, and I had an imbalanced profitable budget for nearly 150 years! Ended up with $300,000 cash on hand, and at a low tax rate of 2%.
I accomplished this by not paying any transportation maintenance, having few police, and only one fire station.
Wow, without even actually trying too hard I got Megalopolis! I don't think I've ever done it without cheating. I was using river map 825B.
Every so often I have to come back to a relaxing sandbox game to just fiddle with, while also feeling that I'm accomplishing something. https://awoo.space/media/6stbCaxaMWfzayF0A40
