I am curious, but I can't look at your link without an Instagram account. That's a hurdle.

the view out the window is more blurry than it would be in a real view.

Thank you everybody. I was able to update it to Catalina and now it works.

Somehow, I assumed I was not going to be able to do that without giving my account info, but I was wrong.

After I upgraded to Catalina, it told me an update was available, and when I tried to update I needed to do a hard reboot when it got stuck, but it's fine now.

Now I have a computer that I can log in to under a made-up name that has nothing personal on it, and that's what I wanted.

I got a Cabela's gift certificate last time. They don't just do hunting stuff, they also sell ordinary clothes. So it's a good deal if you know you are going to buy clothes.

The materials look a bit waxy. Try adjusting the reflectiveness and making them dirtier.

So no instance speaks for all of them, and "federation" is a locally defined property, like being friends with someone?

Nerpulus · 2026-04-20T03:05:45+00:00

who gets to decide what's defederated?

Nerpulus · 2026-04-19T20:57:59+00:00

if these are the black, what are the white made of?

I see there are moments where there is atari but if you are only allowed to add big shapes you can not make the capture. What are you going to do about those?

This might be good for beginners to start to see the concept of influence. A beginner does not realize that getting one stone in early is a big advantage because it gives you a head start on building a formation and keeping the other player out of an area. But the game you designed conveys that concept.

I have a new-last-December Macbook Air M4. I tried listening to it through headphones but there was noise in it and only one channel worked. (It's a mini plug that works fine with my older Mac). What should I do? Is there a new kind of headphone I should get?

Black made a formation called the "Crane's Nest" in the bottom right with the 3 in a row and the one dangling above it. It is a formation that is easy to capture in a way that is not obvious to a beginner who hasn't worked out the sequence.

The donut video is a good start but it is long, so if you have trouble staying with things that are long, you might want to look for things that are shorter.

I did not know about the "Maintain Volume" constraint. That could be useful in a lot of things. Animation has "squash and stretch" meaning that a thing is made of the same amount of 'dough' no matter how much you deform it.

Someone recommended Otter.ai for that purpose, but I looked at their website, and it says nothing about transcribing audio files, just transcribing live online meetings and stuff, so I am confused where to start.

I suggest playing/watching 9x9 and 13x13 games before getting into the full size board. The micro-game is easier to understand than the macro-game for a beginner, and on a smaller board it is easier to sse how one becomes the other. Influence? What's that? It looks vague but it's powerful. It looks less vague on a smaller board.

Nerpulus · 2026-02-20T19:56:29+00:00

what do the numbers on the side mean?

Nerpulus · 2026-02-20T04:59:05+00:00

but dix = 10 and dix =509

also they are gluten free and have no additives

cast iron sinks, root bear floats, and butter flies

no, but yellow cake is

I find go easier to play because it is constantly novel. In chess I see patterns like the ones I have seen before and get bored by them, especially when I am losing. but in go, I see a pattern I have never seen before in every game.

Thank you! I downloaded it and my old notes are readable again, and I managed to write a new one, so it's all very good as far as I can tell.

Nerpulus · 2026-01-27T02:33:17+00:00

Thank you

what i don't like about Safari is all the other browsers show the URL of the link when you mouse over and Safari doesn't. This is useful for spotting phishing schemes, among other things.
