I'm not getting the messages at all. I'm on android with the Google messages app, and the others have iphones.

Starting a new group chat sounds like a good suggestion, especially since the other group chat I'm in seems to work.

I am. That's interesting. I didn't change any settings, but maybe an update did something.

I lost count of the times I started typing a post or comment and either couldn't come up with the right phrasing to convey what I want, or just decided that my dumb comment wasn't worth posting.

Dungeons of Dreadrock was a nice puzzle game. I spent a good amount of time on that.

Run for office and be the lesser evil.

I've donated a decent sum of money to the food pantry at my church.

I don't think I've seen anyone else mention Texts from superheroes on Lemmy yet.

Working from my bedroom in the US while seeing and speaking to a fellow developer living in Pakistan is really quite awesome.

Shit, that explains my weight and flaky face skin. Now I gotta figure out why I keep waking up around 3:00 and can't get back to sleep.

I'm an organ donor, but I suspect my organs won't be worth much by the time I'm done with them.

My dad watches Full Custom Garage, and while I'm not interested in cars or anything like that, the guy's personality seems so positive, and the show is so drama-free, that I could just watch it and relax without hearing any assholes arguing at each other like some other shows.

 

After I showed her one of the bird videos, she now eagerly waits while I turn on the tablet in the morning and she watches me open Youtube and pick a video.

Sometimes she accidentally closes the video, or opens the comments and then I need to step in to make sure she doesn't post any offensive comments.

 

This isn't really meant to save anyone's life. But it would let someone know to come pick up your corpse before it melts into the carpet and your cat starves.

 

I don't remember why I originally bothered to read this manual 25 years ago, but I ended up reading it to enjoy the jokes and humorous writing it contained.

She's clearly having fun, running around in circles, chewing sticks, and finding and eating cat poop. And I don't want to discourage her from having fun when I take her outside (except for the cat poop thing -- that needs to stop).

But she seems to have the idea that jumping up and biting my wrists or my ankles is a fun game that we both enjoy, and she seems to be getting more agressive about it.

Let me preface this one by saying that the blame for this is entirely on me and my carelessness when shopping online. I did not get scammed. I was just being stupid.

Several times.

So I recently bought a synthesizer to connect to my MIDI controller (an 88 key keyboard with some knobs and blinking lights and shit).

I saw that this new device has a 3.5mm MIDI port while I only had the classic 5-pin kind. No problem, I'll buy an adapter.

The adapter arrives, and I discover that the one I bought has the female 5-pin connector and won't plug into the keyboard. Well, crap.

Buy another adapter. Made sure the 5-pin side was male.

Oops. Turns out that the 3.5mm MIDI cables come in type A or type B, and I chose poorly.

So I search for "midi type a to b converter" and without thinking at all, I bought a converter that has two female connectors. Fuck me.

At this point, a sane person would've just cut the first two adapters and soldered the correct ends together, but fuck it, I'm in too deep now. I gotta get a 3.5mm MIDI cable with two male ends to complete this daisy-chain of madness and find out how long it takes for me to get bored and find another hobby.

Not sure what happened to this guy's wings.

 

I'm tired of hearing about popular games. Are there any games you played and were surprised by how little attention it got? A game you really enjoyed, but was only reviewed by five people?

 

(Quarter for scale)

 

I have an app that I released a couple years ago (plus another legacy app that I maintain for one of my company's clients). My game has a long-ish title, but it was fine until some asshat at Google decides that 33 characters is too long. On top of that, every time I'm forced to update the target SDK, I need to spend several hours figuring out a bunch of new build errors. This is not how I wanted to spend my vacation time.
