Anyone here have experience updating a Dockerized Perl application? Specifically I am looking for help upgrading the app from 5.26 to 5.30 and how to rectify errors where some libraries (I think?) were built for Perl 5.26 and won't work under 5.30?

@Htbaa I think that's what I'm running into, just not sure how to resolve it.

Folx into and Iโ€™ve heard that one shouldnโ€™t harvest dandelions near roadways or lawns that are treated for weeds due to potential toxins in them.

Does anyone have a reputable source that confirms or disproves that?

And to what degree that would affect future generation plants if one were to collect seeds from wild dandelions in such places and grow them in containers?

Context: I live in a large urban area and would like to try growing dandelion microgreens.

@shekinahcancook I appreciate the opinion based on your lived experience but I was hoping for source materials that dive more into the risks and explain a bit further.

TIL that some CCTV systems will have a tummy ache if you happen to expose them to a QR encoded antivirus test string.

@feld I am considering getting some printed on a fat quarter from Spoonflower so I can put some fun patches on my vests :)

Day trip to Possum Kingdom State Park. #TexasStateParks

Panorama of part of Possum Kingdom Lake from the trail near water level. Land with houses and boats and a large hill can be seen across the lake.
Selfie of Dave, mid thirties man with nerdy glasses, a camouflage bandana as a headband, patchy brown mustache and beard, chubby cheeks, and an olive drab colored shirt. Possum Kingdom Lake can be seen in the background and to the left in the distance.
Notebook page with planner days labeled in orange. Thereโ€™s a green rubber stamped image over todayโ€™s date, Friday 3/1, that says โ€œPaul Kingdom State Parkโ€ and has a graphic of a boat.

Cinnabon's relationships with Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy's, Sonic, and Schlotzsky's (and probably others I'm forgetting) are a great example of responsible and delicious polyamory.

Microsoft Teams is the biggest pile of garbage Iโ€™ve ever been forced to use. I just typed and entered the same message four times and it just disappeared into the ether without sending.

Iโ€™d love a good default Wordpress theme option for code/technical stuff like @davew proposes at http://scripting.com/2024/01/06.html#a142508

Iโ€™ve been thinking about using one of my Wordpress sites in part to document a potential puzzle data format and making it look good is one of the things in the back of my mind as a roadblock to actually doing it.

Currently curating/organizing the third annual #BlackOutFriday in an effort to get folks to stay home and do some free puzzles instead of shopping on Black Friday. If you're a puzzle author and want to join the collab, send me a PM or e-mail and I'll get you started!

Hearing it spoken out makes it sound wild. 17 state parks in the past two weeks, plus the Great Smoky Mountains.

@ernie you collecting park stamps along the way? It's one of my favorite things to do.

The CSS Working Group is at this very moment on a call debating the name of a new property. (Trying to figure out the best word to use. Is it โ€œmodeโ€?)

Imagine text-wrap becomes a shorthand for two new properties:

text-wrap-mode
text-wrap-style

What do you think each of these properties will do?

(People who write CSS.)

dave,
@dave@puz.fun avatar

@jensimmons it feels like maybe an inline version of overflow? Something that might interact with the ability to add ellipses or hyphenation and maybe simplify that?

If not that, possibly something related to flowing text between grid areas.

Some days I get the most intense craving for Chex mix. I wish they had a super bold version that has even more roasted garlic and Worcestershire sauce baked into it. And no pretzels or bread sticks.

@feld valid! I need to stop buying so much packaged stuff anyway so maybe I can find a local store with cereal in bulk bins and use it for homemade snack mixes.

@feld air fryer might be a good option, too... hmm

The fact that nobody just sells boards full of switches like these for autistic kids to play with is a crying shame. https://www.tumblr.com/hardtimes/726143019130273792

@twipped I love this. There's a surplus store called Ax-Man in the Twin Cities with a bunch of electronics jumble that I hope to visit when I visit family there in October. Possible DIY inspo???

@wx1g @twipped that's super cool. I have a spinny wheel-of-fortune wheel my dad made when I was a kid. Most of my memories of my dad are not great, but there were sparks of someone cool I wish still existed.
