I'm a web developer and I like video games and sci-fi and cartoons and I've watched all of Star Wars and the MCU (more than once). Also Aliens, Predator and Terminator are the trifecta of awesome imo and sometimes I don't go to work so I can play video games instead ๐Ÿ˜„

Remember when they used to put an "s" at the end in parentheses when they weren't sure if there was going to be more than one of something or not, like code(s) or ticket(s) or whatever? Not good enough for this chap! That's been bugging me since I was a kid and I fixed it on my wife's recipe page. If she chooses 1 cup, for example, it'll say 1 cup. But if she chooses 2 cups it'll say 2 cups (plural) automatically. And the same for the rest of the units of measure (teaspoon, tablespoon etc), if any of them have an amount > 1 they get pluralized. Also spent some time today adding the rest of the new recipe details to the show page, laying things out so it looks nice and finishing up the styling. And that is the show page 99% done and 2 more things checked off the To-do list ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป The only thing left on the show page is to finish fixing the Like button, which is functional but just kind of jammed in there at the moment. #WebDev #WebDevelopment image

Once I finish the page for my wife's recipes I'm going right into my next project which I already have well on its way. Most of the styling and layout is done, it looks nice but it's not incredibly complicated. It's also already responsive, the database is saving what I want it to save and I have authentication and authorization already working. What's left to do is the core functionality of it and I'd like to make it my first #OpenSource project, but I've never ran one of those before and I could use some advice. And I don't want to host it on GitHub because Microsoft, is there a good alternative that still uses #git? Also don't want to use VS Code anymore for the same reason. I guess I could use Sublime but I've never used it to make a whole project before. What do #Linux people use? #WebDev #WebDevelopment #FrontEnd #BackEnd #FullStack #HTML #CSS #JavaScript

Hey while we're at it, I almost forgot I also found out recently that if you put the windows up and down incessantly like a 3 year-old would do, it eventually locks out the window controls for about a minute ๐Ÿ˜ Someone at Honda accounted for this, in 2012 Honda Civics, anyway ๐Ÿ˜‚

I've been driving this same car for a while and I just now this very moment found out (on accident) that if you double click Resume for the cruise control it sets the cruise, and now my brain is wondering why I need the Set button image

My fingers reek like #weed for some reason. Oh well, it's probly a coincidence! And you may have guessed it's time for even more #Stalker2! It's a wild world out there in The Zone, remember those enemies I was talking about earlier called Burers that can throw things at you with their minds? One of them added insult to injury earlier. Not only did it rip my gun out of my hands and toss it somewhere, but then as I was scrambling around looking for it on the ground I started getting shot and turned around just in time to see that it was shooting me with my own floating gun that it was pointing at me with its mind and, a moment later, killed me with it ๐Ÿ˜‚ image #gamer #gamestr #videogames #streaming #PS5 https://www.youtube.com/live/yCqRcrrRkM4

Okay, there's adding steps of Instructions buttoned up, and with that the form for adding recipes is complete! That feels like a pretty significant milestone, the hard work is done, the recipe model is complete and adding recipes has a pretty good flow. Now I just have to make everything look pretty on the Show and Edit pages and my first actual web page will be almost done ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป #WebDev #WebDevelopment

My wife and I were pulling into the Walmart parking lot recently, there was an ambulance there with its lights going and the EMT's were moving someone from their car to the ambulance on a stretcher as we pulled up. Found out later that a woman shot herself in the hip (in the ass, really) on accident that day. Her gun went off as she was getting out of her car that also had her 3 kids and her husband in it because she put a bullet in the chamber and had left the safety off. And that's how they normally walk around with them, ready to fire at a moments notice (or go off on accident). Life in America, I guess

Okay I'm up too early again and playing more #Stalker2 is the clear solution. And I'm gonna gush for a second and point out that the audio is so amazing!! There are audio cues to a lot of things in The Zone if you just stop and listen. An adorable little enemy called the Burer, for example, hums. And it can be a pretty tough fight, it can pull your weapon right out of your hands and toss it fuck knows where, throw your grenades back at you and toss random objects like filing cabinets at you, all with its mind. It's normally chaotic at best, but if you catch your breath for a minute and listen for the humming, you'd figure out that's when his shield is active and you can't actually hurt him. The artifacts also have an audio aspect that can help in finding them and I'm becoming an artifact nerd send help #gamer #gamestr #videogames #streaming #PS5 https://www.youtube.com/live/WP-edQgQTFI
