Oh no, you're right! We've already been to Mr. Pokemon and we already got the Mystery Egg last month! We fought our rival and then named him Butt. We backtracked all the way back to the lab but we forgot to actually talk to Professor Elm! We're stuck until we backtrack and talk to Professor Elm! Oh man, we've got to get a better way to talk strategy among ourselves.

@phi1997
I think we need to retrieve the egg from Mr. Pokemon's house, and then backtrack all the way to Professor Elm and show it to him.

@tom
The next 2 days, right? We lost 4 hours by walking south of this NPC instead of walking north of them, and we will see this inaccuracy for 2 straight days of moves.
@pokemon

@deoxys314
Yeah, you're right. I was hoping to knock out a trainer battle, but we can't go any farther until we bring the egg to Professor Elm.
@pokemon

@pokemon Should we go down-left and grab that Berry from the tree? It heals 10 HP and it might save our hide.

@tom @pokemon I looked at your source code and I've got a better idea: make the poll only include buttons actually make something happen.

In bot.py's def run(self): between the media =... and post =... statements:

  • Save state
  • self.tick(33) with no input
  • Screenshot "idle"
  • For all 8 buttons:
  • - Load the state
  • - Do the button press
  • - Screenshot, and if it's different from "idle", add the button to the poll options
  • Load state
  • Post on Mastodon

@pokemon @tom If Down wins this poll, nothing happens. If the screenshot doesn't change at all after the Down input, can it automatically try the 2nd place action (🅰)?

@tom @pokemon
I like that GIF, but it skipped most of the Pokemon Center healing animation. We can see we only entered the Poke Mart once, found out they don't carry anything useful, and stopped.

Time to exit the shop, take a few steps left, and go north through Route 30. We can get some berries and a potion on the way to Mr. Pokemon's house.

Sorry about that. I figure at least 2GB of that is my uploads. I wonder if you'll rescue the thread comments from last June and July this way.

@tom
Do we have any items? Maybe we should mash A and buy two potions, but that's about all that makes sense to me.
@pokemon

@pokemon @tom Cool! Mastodon bot sorcery from right here in Columbus? How have I not heard of this?

We appear to be in route 29, heading west. We're passing up a potion, which is fine. Do we have any Pokéballs? JA? could use a Hoppip friend if we encounter one.

Where'd Hitstun Go?

I’m OK! I’m mostly on Kbin and Lemmy and a little Mastodon and Discord. They’re like if Reddit or Twitter were general Internet services like email and not getting ruined by a dumb CEO. I don’t use other platforms much unless I’m checking on someone who only uses one platform.

Today's my birthday and people are visiting my old profiles today, so this post is for them. Family and work are keeping me plenty busy and I haven’t been keeping up with everybody else like I should.

@Xkeeper
I think the "Read More" button is meant to get the use to enable JavaScript. Some users disable JavaScript for privacy reasons until the user initiates a script themselves. So, the "Read More" button runs a script that loads the rest of the content, but doing this allows the page's tracking scripts and advertising scripts to run too. The content doesn't load unless the host can make money off of it.

@Sempf @Gabrielle Former /r/wordle mod here. You need starting words for Wordle? I researched those! RAISE, SOARE, AROSE, SANER, and SLATE are my top picks for normal play. Hard Mode players can avoid traps by using SLICE, BRACE, CRANE, TRICE, and CRATE.

I'm glad I finally get to help my instance admin for a change, but now I wait for the infosec community to pwn me through three unprotected header cells on a Google Sheet.

@lichess Nasty move! After this puzzle, black's only hope is underpromoting to knight on e1=N+. It's still an awful situation for black, since the Rd4# mate could happen just about anytime if black makes another mistake.

@Kyoyeou If you like escapism, consider !imaginarydirectory@lemm.ee 's listings. It'll get really interesting once @Martineski remakes his communities that used to be on lemmy.fmhy.ml. If join the Imaginary Network myself if I didn't post videos and real-life examples of floating sometimes.

Lemmy and Kbin are new and buggy, but I embrace the jank and work around it. I actually had to reply to you with my Mastodon account here because it didn't work the first time. It gets better. Don't give up!

@Kyoyeou The Fediverse is still young and it needs your help to balance all the negativity it attracts. You've got to contribute content to the Fediverse yourself. I wanted to see more stuff that floats in the air and that community didn't exist, so I made my own subreddit and then my own Kbin community.

You might have seen my !FloatingIsFun@fedia.io in recent months when a Lemmy bug gave it more exposure than it probably deserved. I try my best to make Floating Is Fun interesting to follow.

@jerry Oh cool, fedia.io is back! That's quick service!

@jerry Not a problem; it's OK. If you hadn't borked fedia.io, that would mean you're not trying hard enough to improve it. I think fedia.io is in good hands.

Joshua Tree National Park is probably a lot more fun when you can fly. If you're flying around with angel wings with a lot of noisy birds, try to be mindful of witches silently levitating there.

(Reposting got weird this time. My first attempt double-posted, and when I deleted one of them, the other one's image got deleted too. So, here's another attempt.)
