I made some art
Phew, it took me scheduling myself time to work on this to actually finish it
I intended to do it the usual draw-reverse-carve way, like you would need to do if you wanted to print words, but I decided maybe I preferred it "backwards" when it came time to carve it. Now I'm not so sure but it was good to try and see
The inking itself was pretty rough too, I'm out of practice, but it felt good to get into it again 🍂🍄🍁
Too much of a good thing:
(*currently) my favourite song by my favourite artist:
Joni Mitchell - Same Situation
The song, the arrangement, the performance - perfection!

*my favourite song changes constantly, and my favourite artist changes too - but it's usually Joni
1980, The Damned, The History fo the World Part 1
My favourite punk band of all time:
just updated to #nextcloud 19.0.2
I started using Nextcloud at version 10x and have never had any problems...
...except the update from 18x to 19.0.1 which stopped half way through and I had to delete a .step file to continue.
Not bad at all! 👍 👍 👍
#hack -- that problematic transparent <table> border *can* be rendered as a box-shadow 👍
also there is a bug in chromium -- if you have a transparent border (no matter where is is -- <thead> <tr> <th> <tbody> <td> ecc..) it renders *below* the table cells on the first column 😠
always 🙄
*BUT* only if you are using the [colspan] attribute!!!
Hooray for <colgroup> <col>, :first-of-type, :last-of-type, :nth-child(x)…
…without you all it would have been a mess of classes
#CSS tables done properly are NOT simple! I've wasted at least an hour and a half just getting the alignment and styling of the columns / rows to match my design. (obviously using as little css as possible!)

I've released new version of https://gif.ski — the high-quality #GIF encoder.
If you need to upload clean-looking GIFs somewhere (e.g. #gamedev demos), that's the tool!
Finally worked out how to make a non-dyadic* time signature in Musescore that actually plays back at the correct speed
*more commonly called 'Irrational time signature' which is a awful name mathematically.

big fan of radical left-wing ideologies like "compassion" and "treating people with respect"
The hardest, heaviest #bass line ever written - Symphony nº6, #Beethoven - 1808…
