I somehow read "ppp" as "posts per day" and got very concerned about you all .

I used to have like 20 or 50 or something lewd.  A lot of old timers used to be young snappers.

I used to be the second-most prolific poster on the forum... Back when 1st place was Toady. I've since spent several years bringing the posting rate back down to more sensible levels


I've got settings cranked up to max posts per page too. Though that's hardly the most shocking setting I roll with

Don't tell me you aren't using darkling Kagus

Wait ~ the forum isn't a crisp, clean, and contrasting shades of white and blue for you?

[Frumple]

I mean, my eyes remain in their sockets instead of gouged out, so no :V

E: Though, uh, even if I turn default theme back on (out of morbid curiosity), it still isn't because I'm using windows high contrast mode to fix the system's coloration to be less painful, and that mostly renders default theme my, well, system colors. Which aren't white and blue. There's some of that mess in the images that make up the theme, because basically no websites play nicely with accessibility options, but not much.

And now back to darkling, may I never see default again.

E2: For reference, with high contrast on default looks like

It's like the worse of several different worlds. The last few years have actually given me something of a personal sympathy for folks that actually rely on accessibility options, instead of just using them to improve their browsing experience. After using high contrast this long, it's become abundantly clear that designing around accessibility functions is a very, very low priority for an extreme supermajority of website designers.

e3:for completeness sake, darkling in high contrast to see the difference:

It could probably be better, but it's at least an improvement of several orders of magnitude over default.

I guess I'm a weird one since I use the default forum theme.

Weather App: no more precipitation, even on the radar.

Me, looking out the window at all the predication: sure.

Ewwwwwwww, light!

Pixel Piracy wasn't touched for eight or nine years. A few weeks ago the dev just... came back. No build up, no warning, just suddenly started releasing patches.

Ah I remember that game. Or more specifically, I remember the publisher that used to hang around here promoting the games that had come under their umbrella.

[pisskop]

I feel like after years of making their passion a career, some people go back and make it their career a passion again.

I bet they put more love into that game than anything else they touched.

I was moving some stuff around on my workbench, then suddenly noticed some glowing sparks flying around.

Do not touch steel wool to both terminals of a 9V battery.

Luckily I had an empty metal wastebasket nearby where I could drop it.  It was effectively like a sparkler, but without the stick...

[JoshuaFH]

You wouldn't think steel could be flammable, but anything can be flammable if you add enough surface area and oxygen.

It's a sparkler pom pom. For hot cheerleaders. Like those fire and sword juggling shows. Would be fun

I imagine the cheerleaders would be very hot.

You know, because of the immolation?

Huh. Encountered Zhen (link should be clean, it's to baka manga/manga updates, just basic info on it), something I've never seen before -- yaoi manga involving a male harpy.

Not, like, actually interested in reading it or anything (most of the summary blurb is just... no), but you don't see male harpies very often to begin with, much less in longer form works. Most of the artwork I saw was kinda' meh -- generic higher quality boylove style, basically, for those that are aware of what that looks like -- but the wings were actually remarkably well done. Some variety of parrot looking, too, which is double unusual for harpies.

Anyway, wasn't expecting it on several levels, so here we are.
