It's been about 25 years since I did anything in Tcl, but it looks like everything I want for that is already installed on this computer so yeah, I guess that's my plan for after dinner. Slam out at least a start for one of the things I want and look up what I need for that as I go. (I probably have a book I can dig out)

(I don't expect any of these things to be particularly useful to others and am unlikely to share them)

Considering relearning enough of Tcl for some simple tools that I'd like to have but don't really want to bother with doing it in C++ and also would like something nicer to iterate on than just a shell script. There are a few small things I want that I think this would be a good fit.

There's a lot of rain. Also the cat is demanding cuddles.

Lined up another teaching gig for a few days next month.

The cat has been lured to my side with the smell of mint ice cream.

@fribbledom Imagine if they just made the camera that thick all the way down. Why, they'd have room for... user replaceable batteries? Headphone jacks?

Wearing my raycats baseball shirt today. It glows in the dark, much like the cats who are supposed to warn our distant post-apocalyptic descendants about leaking nuclear waste that they should run away from.

I also have a bit of roasted coffee from a pre-ship sample of my next Ethiopian coffee. As a press the fragrance is amazing. There's a mild bergamot note that goes well with the fruit and floral notes in the flavor. Looking forward to getting the arrival sample.

Finally getting around to tasting the other gift coffee. This is also a little lighter than I personally would take the coffee, but it's quite nice. A bit more intensity of flavor than the other one, a bit lacking in body, but I certainly wouldn't complain about this being served to me in a shop.

I have 28GB of RAM free. What's using 300MB of swap?

People on hoyolab are freaking out about my old pyro Qiqi again.

@MmeLibertine In case you didn't see the other reply, it's just vanilla syrup and mulling spices in the milk before steaming. I've been making them since before pumpkin spice was a thing. social.typica.us/@neal/1089583

@gnomon pretty sure you're thinking of that. For a 16 oz double, 1 oz vanilla (most brands work), 1 tablespoon mulling spices. Adjust to taste or scale to size.
