“how large is the Eevee” does it really matter? No

Show thread

Fireworks, or how to make an eevee’s tail bristle so much it won’t fit through a door

Still have not vacuumed, but have hydrated, which is like the former but better-tasting

I have to vacuum

I do not want to vacuum

Why can’t all the crud vanish of its own accord

iPadOS beta 

I don’t even really like SlideOver as a Safari use case; gimme a split window or go away. Overlapping windows make me itch and I’d rather have infinite columns

iPadOS beta 

Did being happy that beta 3 dropped curse beta 3? I just want SlideOver not to make my device freaking unusable

@konomikitten near as I can tell it’s mainly useful for people who are already all in with Pocket as a “to read later” service to begin with

me: I’ll just have one or two pieces from this pack of gum
me, two minutes later: I’ll just finish off this pack of gum

look, gum is a challenge, okay

Downside of Instant Pot braise: whole house becomes redolent
Upside: don’t have to leverage chronic insomnia in order to feed
Other upside: I can use beer instead of maple sugar and prayer

I keep forgetting that chuck steak in the toaster oven takes longer than chuck steak in the instant pot, plus it doesn’t taste like beer

I literally can’t think of anything which isn’t equivalent or beefier on the tiny laptop except for a few irrelevant security features. Even SSD should be faster.

probably next week I should sit down and tell Windows to Perform Performantly

Show thread

On paper, my tiny laptop should be able to smash through the thing I’m doing faster than the slightly more cumbersome one with less RAM, VRAM, or useful cooling

In practice, the cumbersome one is smashing the task relative to the tiny one performing an equivalent job a few weeks ago

computers are weird

In an ideal world, I would go find a massive beanbag couch, sink in, and play a Pokémon of some sort

Why is world not ideal and why is beanbag not here

Show thread

Nothing more fun than staying up late, babysitting a slow render, too keyed up to go to freaking sleep like a diurnal beast but too annoyed with the world to find something to read or do

Also I may have nursed that energy drink til close to midnight, whoops

@noiob yeah, this is most of what I use Siri for tbh. Assistant for turning lights pink and blue, Siri for tea

@noiob I feel like there should be? But in the end, my partner just ends up repeating “TURN. THE LIGHTS. ON. Please” a whole lot, and Home/Assistant always forgets what we told one of those lights to do other than turn on at something thirty pm

re: Food, Casual Rec Request, Sensory Seeking 

@pastelbat NP! You could probably use other warming spices alongside or in place of the ginger, but I’m not sure how well the tea pairing would go. If you like the yujacheong and enjoy green chillies, look into yuzu kosho!
