@arrjay too real

it turns out the results of your regression tests are less than accurate if you rewrite the file under test midway through a run

@astrid apparently google up to "a few years ago" (which I heard back in 2019ish) had a bunch of emergency crisis centers for the network SREs, which were fully stocked with caffeine, snacks, and liquor. lots and lots of liquor

@glyph sadly not, just using a phone with very slow 4g

which is a little harder to do when you have NO INTERNET

so I think I need to uninstall all my node and reinstall node+npm separately, system-wide, and not try to do any managed environments

I used FNM to easily install node+npm.

it turns out this was a mistake on windows, because FNM in magic and it expects to be doing shell magic

my network was down, my power was out, and yet still node.js managed to piss me off.

@foobarsoft yeah I think california has a requirement for garage door openers to have batteries, because of the risk of fires and power outages after earthquakes

@apicultor I think there is? but there's no way the disabled people in my house could use it

I wrote some dumb code to iteratively crop the image and count how many colors were left.
Hopefully it survived the power outage

Also we discovered that our garage door's emergency battery is fucked. Good to know now, rather than when the house is on fire

My roommate is now trying to fix the network IN THE DARK because OUR POWER IS OUT FOR THE THIRD TIME TODAY.

(the network equipment is on a UPS. The lights are not)

I guess I could replace the pink by transparent and autocrop it in the GNU image editor

stupid scripts I find I need and I'm pretty sure don't exist:

I need to find the rightmost pixel in this image that isn't magic pink

@eval yeah, same. I can't draw some weird squiggle. but I can draw a stylized "et"!

@celestestormysea Thanks!

@arensb possibly, except that it's a company name. The cases can be a little weird there.
But quite possibly! it's just been too long since I took my latin classes for me to remember

better Latin translation:

@laogeodritt awesome! thanks for improving on it. I'll link that into the thread
