@mfashby input validation with perl cgi scripts in the late 90s due to my own lack of experience, the lack of tooling in that area at the time, and the fact that cgi scripts were pretty much a mess

@Chel @DragonessDella@octodon.social @seylerius @Bisexuhell@snouts.online yesss, let's all join in! together! :D

the majority of my programming projects that are most "worth doing" actually have pretty substantial amounts of tedium and burn-out inducing grinds associated with them

it's a bit counter-intuitive, but i've found that this is often the case for problems that need solving. the reason some "simple" problems are still unsolved is because the problem's simplicity hides an arduous journey.

@Bisexuhell@snouts.online @DragonessDella@octodon.social @Chel tbh it's worth it, like seriously worth it from a content perspective

consider - it had over 800,000 words before they even finished adding in all the content. this is just about twice as much as the word count of sunless sea and the zubmariner expansion together.

also, every single level is beautifully, immaculately built. the music is fantastic. the ports are often quite incredible. the combat is enthralling.

@Chel @DragonessDella@octodon.social @Bisexuhell@snouts.online actually yeah, Sunless Skies is Art

Shout outs to all the trans people who don’t want or can’t afford bottom surgery, don’t feel bottom dysphoria and like the parts they have, etc. you’re all still very trans and very valid.

Because I can't actually scream my lungs out in physics class, allow me to do so here

[screams lungs out]

bed is warm
apartment is cold
the bun is lazy

in the same breath:

mary sues aren’t real

men can be OP and survive anything and win everything and no one cares

let women be the same way

@Taweret @Chel hahaha, what have you done...chel played it on max volume. i am now traumatized

Dr. Patricia Bath (Born 1942) Dr. Bath is an ophthalmologist, and the first African-American woman doctor to receive a patent for a medical purpose. In 1981 she received a patent for the Laserphaco Probe, which is used to treat cataracts. Dr. Bath’s laser probe made cataract surgery faster and more accurate, and she has been credited with saving thousands of people from losing their sight. She now holds 4 patents. #BlackHistoryMonth

Seattle BBQ, ranked, in my opinion

1: Emma's BBQ
2: Jack's BBQ
3: Bitterroot BBQ

(Bitterroot is okay, but I can only be smushed in with so many techbros before I need to run away crying and screaming for air)

@AudreyJune @Chel this is one of the best replies ever, lmao

Jack's BBQ is pretty decent. I just... can barely tell the difference between their regular bbq sauce and their spicy bbq sauce

@DragonessDella@octodon.social tbh, i also need more friends to play with on table top simulator - i haven't actually played tabletop sim for quite some time tbh due to not having folks to play it with

@DragonessDella@octodon.social gloomhaven - my over enthusiastic purchase of 2018

it was... uh worth it. with that said, holy shit it's not made to be either portable or practical

@DragonessDella@octodon.social no actually, not yet, but if i was then i would be weeping with joy tbh - i hate this place XD

i'm being reduced to tears by trying to pack a board game. this is the state of my life atm.
