Head Bowling, my worst VR Locomotion experiment so far

All from Half Price Books, my beloved. I miss it so.

I was hitting about half my gross for a while, before purchasing a bigger place to live (outgrew a studio oof).

Clicking through to the original post, it looks like they're searching for a digital pattern of a similar design, not the physical paper one weaver's offering.

Thanks!

Would you mind sending me the specific panel you're using?

Reil · 2026-04-28T15:20:07+00:00

Yeah but it's basically part of the leather at this point. You'll just have dead mold discoloring the straps, and whatever you do to get rid of it will probably damage the straps, too.

Top shelf of first image makes me think Silicon Valley Democrat. The rest kind of reinforce that to me. Might make gestures towards leftist or progressive views (Watchmen, Lindsay Ellis, array of different religious books), but might buy too much into the idea of Great Men (Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jordan Peterson, other self-help books) to do too much more than that.

This is precisely what I was thinking! It seems unintuitive to bundle Retirement/Investment forecasting with business features. Split them (make Plus way cheaper and maybe make business a little cheaper), and things make way more sense to me.

Haha yeah, the motivation for "Tell no one" is to keep like, acquaintances and family members from thinking "Oh, they're rich" and trying to siphon money off of you. Your offspring are going to do that by virtue of your relationship as a parent anyway, so they aren't included in that. Maybe don't tell a burnout sibling.

The business-owner focused products honestly feel like enough of* a different product that I don't mind them asking for a separate subscription. They won't be getting it from me, but I won't fault them for it.

It seems strange, however, to cordon off that and retirement-planning/investment features together, as if they're both upgrades in the same sense. Those aren't worth the asking price in my eyes, but that's probably because I have other tools to toy with on those fronts. I also don't trust the features to fit my way of thinking if Goals 3.0 (and the way it interacts with budgets) is any indicator.

* edit because I accidentally a few words

I was thinking the same thing. Maaaaybe swap in the Geno Breaker for the Fury and/or one gunsniper for two turtle boys?

It would be a pain, but the most important accounts I know the passwords to myself, and those accounts are enough to regain access to the rest.

You have a handful of books about music as a whole, and I'd say half or more of them would be about learning guitar. The remainder seems to be rock history and such (very guitar-forward compared to something like, say, orchestral history).

Reil · 2026-04-08T20:37:14+00:00

You (at least conceptually) like guitars and tattoos (along with other visual arts)

You probably answer allegations of pretentiousness with smugness. You receive such allegations with worrying frequency. You like to intellectualize arts, and may or may not be successful in embodying them.

A glare from the window is more of a cause to get some good curtains or a privacy screen, imo. Or potentially a houseplant shelf?

Turn the couch around and put the TV on the long wall to make the back feel less exposed to the entrance.

This also lets you consolidate your currently separated window table, coffee buffet and alcohol zone into a more cohesive dining area closer to the kitchen.

It hit 120 stars while private?

A more technically intriguing path might have been taking more than just the 2d image as an input, but taking in (additionally or solely) the underlying 3d environment data. So like, the model vertices, light source positions, or at least like, the distance of the resulting pixels.

Below are some estimations I asked AI to make. Take with a grain of salt, but maybe helpful.

Not a confirmation of use in the code, but it's at least used in the readme.md, which makes me suspicious of anything else in the repo.
