Does anyone have any ahk file(s) they would like to share? I have (to me) a basic setup but I’ve never gone very deep on it, but I’d like to. As a new-to-windows user I REALLY miss some of the Linux key commands I’ve set up in i3.
I just recently set up my 2nd Dell XPS. The last one I switched between Arch, Gentoo, Ubuntu, and Windows as my itch to tinker kicked in from time to time.
I had minimal issues with any distro I tinkered with. Ultimately, the ol’ girl had some failing hardware components so I upgraded to the newest XPS model and will continue to do so until their quality declines. I absolutely love the machine.

Is that what Adventure Mode is? I’ve been playing DF off-and-on since 2013(ish), but I’ve never tried adventure mode.
Oh that’s great! Thank you.

Interesting. Are you considered a “full time employee” or “contractor”?
Is there a better image format available?
Personally, I prefer Aurora and Distant Worlds: Universe. Paradox games are fantastic but these are Dwarf Fortress-level detail (if you’re into that sort of thing).

This can’t be a “normal” person, right? This has to be a paid actor.
I really like this breakdown, and I’ve employed it (to some extent) with various people. In my experience, however, it’s not so much that it worked with them; rather, they found the discussion frustrating and became despondent only within the conversation between myself and them. In other words, I didn’t so much change their mind as help them decide to not engage me on whatever particular topic.
I find that incredibly frustrating. Maybe I’ve rubber-ducked myself into realizing I’m not doing something right.
I adore this site. I’ve taken some time off from Math and have been using this as a refresher for some Linear Algebra stuff I’ve forgotten.
What a treasure.
Maybe I overlooked it, but what’s to prevent a person (or group of people) from filing false claims of racist behavior? They noted it had to be a “first hand experience”, but what sort of proof does that entail?
In a perfect world this is a noble endeavor, but we don’t live in a perfect world and this could just as easily be leveraged by trolls and/or competing businesses.

I actually think the way you created it is perfect. Before I even saw that (above) line in your README I thought, "That looks so cool." Reminds me of the DIY t-shirts you see the Punks/Metalheads wearing.
Having grown up skateboarding and being totally consumed by its subculture, I feel this loss pretty strongly. How awful for his family. Condolences to them.
Forty-six.
Cancer..what a bastard.
"Look into problems, you'll find solutions. Look into solutions, you'll find problems."
God, I love this line.
Oh man, I’ve found this sorta stuff will send me down rabbit holes for days. For whatever reason I find setting up personal knowledge bases as addicting as configuring my editor, so here’s my current drug of choice:
I have a wiki.JS instance which pulls/pushes to a got repo I have of org and markdown files. I have a keybinding attached to an elisp function (did I mention I use Emacs?) that creates or opens a templates, date-named org file with a save hooks that converts it to markdown and pushes it to my repo.
Now I have an easy way to share a page with anyone, look it up (and edit!) while I’m not on my machine, and lose _countless_ hours tweaking both my Emacs setup and wiki setup collectively.
Drug of choice indeed.

Recently, isoflow.io was on the front page. While, I found it useful, I also noticed that it lacked a few features (many of which were pointed out in the comment threads).What are the recommendations for diagramming an organization's infrastructure?
It _is_ happening. That’s the impetus.
I'm not sure it's referencing any actual Facebook posts by the Trump team. It's discussing the protest of the FB employees with respect to Zuckerberg's statement that FB--as a policy--would not label/block posts as Twitter has done.
I agree completely with respect to the e-reader point. I was _almost_ ready to preorder V2, but that shortcoming gave me pause. I really hope they step it up a notch with that.
I’ve wanted to try D&D, but don’t know anyone else that plays. Are there other mediums to play in (i.e. is “by post” still a thing)?
Oh, this is great! Thanks!
This is awesome. It doesn’t even seem that long ago when Boa was started! Man, time flies and people do great things. Kudos to the author and co-contributors for what Boa has become.
Doesn’t this fly counter to the recommendation of “staying home”?
I always assumed that was from the pressure of leaning against things like countertops or being pressed between a belt and a car’s seatbelt.
