Getting pretty glum about 1Password 7 being EOLed and them breaking the browser extension on purpose. I do not want to sync my vault to their storage or use their new slow bad app. What’s your favorite replacement?

The state of #California has known for over a decade that they need to stop development at the forest interface due to #wildfires and #climatechange. They’ve chosen the messiest way to do it: sit on your hands and let people die until the #insurance market fails.

❓Did Instagram change their color temperature and exposure handling lately? Any previously edited photo uploaded to Instagram looks totally blasted out after posting. Photos that look ok in drafts get big color shifts and exposure changes after.

It’s been this way for a couple weeks. It’s annoying that a photo app can’t do WYSIWYG editing reliably.

Is it just me? Makes me never want to post to Instagram again.

@mathowie this has happened to me too. It looks like shit and ruins my uploads

@skinnylatte it’s happened at the beach once or twice - enough that I turned off roaming

Fun fact: Malaysia has nine kings and each Sultan takes a turn to be king or the Agong of the country every five years.

@liztai Penang should demand a turn and just send … some person from Snake Temple or something.

Thinking about soccer hooligans I’ve encountered vs the NFL crowd I saw yesterday. At least with the soccer hooligans I actually understand their sport

@skinnylatte otoh NFL crowds rarely murder each other after games. Although SF/LA is a notable exception

TIL you cant vape in Singapore. Cigarettes are fine though. Is it because they cant tax them?

joeblubaugh,
@joeblubaugh@hachyderm.io avatar

@afif I don’t see any reason they couldn’t tax vapes. Seems like a young / old political power thing. I bet next step is actually a progressive age ban on cigarettes. Born after 2018? No smoking

@skinnylatte it would be an incredible troll to fill it with Catholic easter hymns

@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io avatar

I found myself agreeing a lot with this Chinese Cooking Demystified video. The southern Chinese (especially tribal) foods near the border with Southeast Asia has a lot more in common with Lao or northern Thai food than with say, Shandong food (which in turn more closely resembles Korean food). The idea of nation states falls flat in the culinary sense.

@skinnylatte we had some ramen in Tokyo at a place that specializes in "Chinese-style" ramen. The similarity to our favorite Singapore wonton noodle place was striking.

Happy ! Here’s a rangoli I made with another parent at my kids’ school!

@joeblubaugh@hachyderm.io avatar

Just finished a #cycling trip through Central and … whew. #Singapore Central is not ready for safe cycling. Paths end abruptly onto high-traffic areas, terrible signage. Further out is much better.

@skinnylatte that part wasn’t too bad downtown, but in my neighborhood (Little India) people drive like madmen.

@kevindreher Took me like a year to get brave enough to ride here - I think the spandex guys may be the only folks who love speed enough to put their lives on the line.

And don’t get me started on the car vigilantes constantly posting about how cyclists shouldn’t be on the road. Mothership loves a post about a cyclist in the right lane but never about a driver who doesn’t know how to pass.

Supposedly, these are two different guys on the #newzealand #rugby team. One chucked the egg to the other and I thought it was a camera trick.

how to take a good fall color photo at the Portland Japanese Gardens: https://a.wholelottanothing.org/2023/11/07/how-to-visit-the-portland-japanese-gardens-at-peak-fall-color/

@mathowie the most Japanese thing about this garden may be that there is the “one perfect bush” everyone knows to check out

if you're an infrequent command line user -- what text editor do you use if you need to occasionally edit a file on the command line (other than vim/emacs)?

curious about what people use to edit a git commit message etc

if you picked 'other', I'd love to hear what you do in the replies!

@b0rk pico, because it’s basically always on a machine

The fact that the main SF library is walking distance from my home is such a huge life upgrade. Almost any book, dvd, CD, even vinyl record I’d like? Put it in my library cart. Check out and hold. I collect them on my way back from work (or to / from the train, or from the farmers market which is kinda all the same thing). It has such a vast collection. I just borrowed a ‘Kodak Basic Developing, Printing, Enlarging in Color’ from 1977. Didn’t even need eBay

@skinnylatte SFPL is so good. My mom got a card from them when she was visiting me and used it for years because their ebook collection blows all her local options away.

Chinese vampires could be fun for Halloween, but probably hard to explain especially if I have to hop nonstop
