Thoroughly freckled, nearly alcohol.

That is great. :D

Oh wow, Meryl Streep from fairly recently, I’m surprised I hadn’t heard about it. I’ll check it out.

A play called Souvenir, late last year, put on by a local theater company. (Incidentally, their theater is in the building that used to be the gym when I was in college. It looks really nice inside now, and you would never guess that it was the most divey, stanky gym you had ever seen for like 60 years beforehand. I loved that place.)

Anyway, the play was about a famously bad singer who gained fame for how off-pitch she was. It was funny, heartwarming, and very well done. I didn’t know it while watching the play, but she was a real person, too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Foster_Jenkins

If you want something physical to read, Glenn Fleishman (@glennf@zeppelin.flights) wrote a book called How Comics Are Made. https://howcomicsaremade.com/

From the description:

This covers the whole ball of wax of how artists, knowing their newsprint medium, drew their comics and marked drawings up for color reproduction; how printers put that work through the most arcane and impossible-to-believe operations to get them onto paper…

I think it’s mostly focused on comic strips in the newspaper, but I’m guessing the process is mostly the same for comic books.

I noticed it when I was going into the bathroom that morning. There was no dirt, it was an indentation in the rug.

I did. I didn’t notice anything out of place, the front door was locked, and I live on an upper floor, so getting in through a window is not possible.

Large footprint on the bathroom floor mat that didn’t match any of my shoes. I live alone. Still can’t explain it.

That does look like a Bugout, and maybe the mini, too. That looks really nice.

Ah, so she’s keeping an eye out for ceiling cat.

Well tell him happy almost birthday from us!

Probably, if the music was released as a track on the game’s soundtrack. Those get included in music databases like MusicBrainz, which is what a lot of those music detection services use.

Some level themes are popular enough to have covers made of them, and if the cover is close enough to the original, it may get recognized. Some are popular enough to be cataloged on their own. For example, Chemical Plant Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2: https://musicbrainz.org/recording/cb389ab1-b08e-4042-ab73-8ff63e8a6205

I wouldn’t count on every level from every game being cataloged in a music database, though.

I was hoping that Waterfox would somehow skip this change, but it just updated a few days ago. Now that the new UI is out of beta, I don’t see a way of turning it off.

For me, the most irritating part is the way that it jumps a little bit if you only scroll a small amount. Small enough to make the Private/Tabs/Sync bar show up, but then immediately hide itself again. That happens in both grid and list mode.

Well right now I can see a clock on the wall, the clock on the stove, the clock on my laptop, and a watch on my wrist, and they all have slightly different times. But I’m coping. So that’s four. At least four I can deal with.

There was an alleged squirrel in the yard that needed to be looked into, and then there was some toilet paper that was suspiciously on the roll, needing to be pulled down. That has also been taken care of.

Warcraft was originally supposed to be a Warhammer 40K game, but Blizzard ended up not getting the license, so they created their own universe instead.

Back when Avatar came out, I heard someone call it “Fern Gully with better graphics.”

Nice! This game is still the only version of Super Mario Bros. that I’ve played.

Beautiful! It’s almost like I can feel the static on my face. :D

No laces, use cable ties instead. Snip them off with wire cutters after each wear.
