Thank you for providing a starting point! Jumping into a long-running show can be daunting. I’m going to check this one out.

Bingo. Why did I begin to stink when I hit puberty even though I showered twice daily and lived in a temperate climate? This person makes it sound like no one would stink if they simply never start using deodorant, when the reality is that people start using deodorant because they realize that they stink without it. For centuries, people around the world have used perfumes to cover their BO before (and after) deodorant became available. Why would they need this if they simply don’t use deodorant?

I also know a woman who swears that you never actually need to wash your hair. Your head will stop producing as much oil and you’ll naturally have beautiful hair. She is a lovely, smart, confident, and attractive woman, but her hair is greasy and stringy AF.

Thanks for your feedback, Kit. You may be glad to realize that I had already done exactly what you suggest I should have done, which is recommend that OP get checked out. Have a great night!

Welcome to Lemmy!

You might want to look into getting checked out for ADHD. Someone close to me was diagnosed as an adult a few years ago, and your behavior overlaps somewhat with their behavior. Many hours of making schedules and charting plans, but a strong mental block with putting plans into action to actually get things done. It’s more common than you’d think.

This is the way.

Rage Against the Machine and Public Enemy come immediately to mind.

Edit: I guess those would fall into, what you call, “angry genres”. Not sure if that matters when it comes to spreading information. Popular is popular regardless of tone, and what is popular changes pretty regularly.

When I purchased my first woodworking equipment, I was thinking much more like an engineer than a craftsman. I pretty quickly found that wood is a fairly forgiving material, and being off by a few thousandths on a table saw isn’t usually a big deal. But, it depends on what you’re building and what other tools you have.

Don’t talk about Usenet.

and…

Don’t — talk — about — Usenet!

Guys… you’re all breaking the first two rules of Usenet…

I can’t think of any problems I’ve faced in over 3 years. I have an app on my phone that I can use to temporarily disable my Pi-hole if I need to do some testing, but I don’t know if I’ve ever had a situation where the Pi-hole was the source of a problem. Definitely not a maintenance headache. I run an update on it every now and then, but only because I see a notification that there is one, not because there’s something going wrong.

This is the answer I would go with. I’ve used this utility for many many years, and for dozens of different needs. It’s a great Swiss-army-knife for renaming needs.

Sure, but I don’t imagine that would be the file extension, it would just be in the filename (the part before the extension).

I’m curious, for what reason would one need/want to do this?

When looking at the series page, if you expand the seasons down to list the contained episodes, are all of the episodes there (even if not in the “correct” season)? Or are several seasons worth of episodes just not listed at all? Which show?

I’m out of the loop on this. Can anyone ELI5 what’s going on with LTT? Don’t have time to watch this long video before work.

You’ll sometimes hear IT people use “Layer 8 problem” which is a reference to the OSI networking model. The model has 7 layers. It starts at layer-1, the physical layer (the literal wires that the signals flow through), and ends with layer-7, the application later (things like http, ftp, etc.).

“Layer-8” isn’t technically part of the OSI model, but unofficially it refers to the human layer, or the user. When IT people are troubleshooting an issue, trying to identify where in the model the issue is happening, “layer-8” is a tongue-in-cheek way of saying “there isn’t an actual problem… the person is the problem”.

Another good one is the “ID10T” error (read as “I-D-ten-T”), which looks a lot like “IDIOT” when written down. It means the same thing.

Exactly. Layer 8 problem.

God damn. Hoisted by my own petard!

Anyone know a Lemmy equivalent of r/woosh?

Update: I’ve been banging my head against this for another day and have made a bit of progress. I think part of my original problem has to do with CORS issues. I’ve gotten around this by running a local server and navigating to the local html file via http (http://local host:8080/tennis.html) instead of file (file:///drive/path/tennis.html).

After this, I was running into an error with https. I believed something in the js was forcing redirection to https protocol. I “fixed” this by changing the value of _0x15ea[1] from “https:” to “http:” in the tennis.js file.

Now, I am able to get the locally saved page to load in a browser, but none of the actions that normally update the score on the scoreboard are working. For example, when loaded from the original website (scorching.com), clicking on the game score (white boxes on right) will increase that player’s score by 1. Likewise, the “z” and “x” keyboard keys will increase the player 1 and 2 scores, respectively. (In case anyone isn’t familiar with tennis scoring, the game score numbers advance through 15, 30, 40…, so don’t be surprised that they aren’t going 1, 2, 3…

The other things on the page all seem to be working. Just the scoring isn’t working,or the inputs to activate scoring changes aren’t being recognized. (In the browser’s console I can see “scores 1” or “scores 2” being logged, which is the first instruction in the “scores” function, so I know the inputs are being recognized.) Appreciate any thoughts that might help me.
