This ritual for decomposition of human bodies is absolutely the kind of thing I've always envisioned for myself after I die: https://youtu.be/_LJSEZ_pl3Y It's a beautiful, natural way to go

I thought of boosting this: https://mastodon.social/@ivanrancic/107156890876937775 Then I looked at the person's other posts and found this: https://mastodon.social/@ivanrancic/107079707699701547 This has to be the silliest hyperbole I've ever seen about dock placement, to the point where I'm confident it's a bad joke. A really weird joke, too

I saw a delivery truck recently with a sticker on the back saying "Find us online!" with a charming Windows 95 cursor clicking a globe 😌

@david the video I found is this one by Olive Mae: https://youtu.be/8SZuQPC--ck

I websearched to see if my memory of the troll event was correct and apparently it was called the /w/hiteout. I never played Habbo but I remember screenshots of these people trolling would circulate back in 2007ish

I looked up Habbo Hotel because I've been watching some "what happened to this old website" videos lately, and a top result on YouTube is a "rise and fall" video that conspicuously does not mention any of the racist trolling that Habbo was infamous for... Comes across as sanitized revisionist history from a white person afraid to even mention racism 🤔 The thumbnails for other top results implies that they think the racist trolling was lulzworthy. Internet is still bad™️

@Jo yeah I knew someone who used to make fun of me for having a stove kettle and I was like ???

Personally I find them easier to clean because there's no weirdly-shaped heating elements involved...

Screenshot of Wild Eights https://fun.tassaron.com/wild-eights/ The deck height decreases by 1 card for every 3 cards drawn. When the deck is empty, it reshuffles with cards from the "underpile" and those cards vanish and the deck height jumps upward. Eventually I'll make them animate across the table. It's rare for a game to require a reshuffle. I'm eventually going to add an option to change the design on the back of the cards

Polling the server in Wild Eights now happens even if the window is not focused. And I fixed 2 other glitches. Hopefully it's good now ♣️ https://fun.tassaron.com/wild-eights/

My fourth favourite ferment (after kimchi, sauerkraut, and sour pickles) is carrots! They stay firm while still absorbing a lot of flavour 😌

@polymerwitch oh, there were also screenshots of the Tusky error page

@polymerwitch someone posted a screenshot of a css class called mastodon-light or something but I didn't verify it; it could've be a lie for all I know

@danso weird. The timer is tied to the screen being painted so maybe the window isn't focused or something? I should maybe change those timers to setinterval

@danso yeah it doesn't stop someone re-joining even though it also doesn't work. It just overwrites the second player every time you join and the first player becomes nobody

It works for me if I open two windows, but I do have to fix the re-joining problem because that's broken and confusing, heh

@danso you're supposed to wait on the screen that shows the room code until the second player joins

@danso oh I joined but you probably already left by now. It's not possible to re-join games yet unfortunately :p

btw, putting a WSGI app in a subdirectory when the root serves static files is a pain in the butt to figure out...

I put my Wild Eights game online. Share a room code with someone to play this virtual 2-player card game: https://fun.tassaron.com/wild-eights/ (Click the ? in the bottom-right corner to see the rules of the game)
