(moving to a POS is not a good option because as near as I can tell the non-retail reading of that also generally applies but maybe I can do something that works better in the specific case of my own company)

Why are ECR programming tools all such utter garbage? This is the thing that will eventually push me to just build my own register (with proper documentation and sane design decisions).

While the cat is on her back with her arms out a lot, it's not as often as the photos make it look. She notices that I'm taking a picture and poses like that for them.

You can tell where the cat seat is by the fur clumps. Also by the presence of the cat. Will need to wash the blanket more often.

I put the cat on the other end of the sofa and she was just like, "nope" and went back to the cat seat.

Dear software developers,

Core functionality should not be an Easter egg.

So it turns out that the fix that I did to make reports in Typica show up at an acceptable size on HiDPI screens also causes these to print super-tiny. I'll have to look into fixing that.

Trucks don't usually just spontaneously tip over on straight roads in good weather, but that appears to be what happened.

Saw a truck fall over while running errands. It was freaky scary, but at least emergency services were positioned extremely conveniently. Hope the driver is fine. No other vehicles were involved.

Ooh, there's a new Timespinner build available with the full game (minus achievements on Linux, but with that planned to be fixed before the game is officially out). Maybe I'll play that tonight.

So it looks like I'll be setting up nextcloud at the shop, probably some time over the weekend but maybe sooner if I'm feeling particularly motivated.

Tasting production test batches of coffees today.

I have to decide if the coffees taste right, make sure the labels accurately describe the products, and if something isn't right figure out how to fix that.

If anybody is curious, a quick query to see who your subscribers are on PeerTube (assuming that you have database access on your instance):

select (select "preferredUsername" from actor where id = "actorFollow"."actorId"), (select "preferredUsername" from actor where id = "actorFollow"."targetActorId"), (select url from actor where id = "actorFollow"."actorId") from "actorFollow";

There's probably a better query for that, but this is:

1. Who follows
2. What's followed
3. Follower url

Oh, but 2/3 of those are from "federationbot". Now I kind of wish I hadn't gone looking for that information.

Three of my #peertube channels now have a subscriber.

Should I make today server update day and finally also get around to moving to the latest releases of Mastodon and Gitea?

https://video.typica.us is now running PeerTube beta 12. Now that channels are more visible I should really add avatars to more of those: https://video.typica.us/accounts/neal/video-channels

The cat was complaining every time I stopped petting her, so I moved her into my lap.
