@Miraz I know, I'm just teasing. Have you watched all the seasons so far? I'm missing Jared Morehu who seems to have just disappeared, and was previously involved in so many cases.

I should have done a better job marking featured photos in the metadata of the Photos app. I’ve now discovered at least one I used twice. Hopefully this isn’t one.

Leaving LAX.

A glimpse of an airplane engine in the lower right gives way to the blue and green of water off the coast of Los Angeles from the air, with the coastline to the north arching in the distance.

On this day: rock arch and waves at Ariya’s Beach off Hwy 101 on the way to Gold Beach, Oregon.

September 4, 2017

Under a slightly broody overcast sky, waves lap the shoreline and large craggy basalt seastacks rise with a very large pointed arch directly in front.

@cygnoir nice! I've been eyeballing one for a while and just haven't pulled the plug. I have a long face and they always appear too "short" for my face. I'd hate for the chin the become a slipping issue.

Long Covid has pushed around one million Americans out of the labor force…[m]ore than 5% of adults in the U.S. have long Covid, and it is most prevalent among Americans in their prime working years. About 3.6 million people reported significantly modifying their activities because of the illness in a recent survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

I just went out and cut some branches off my street trees and came inside and brushed my hair, laid the brush down and looked at it because something odd was sticking out, and it was a stick from a tree that apparently came out of my hair 😆

Viral infections are not beneficial.

Four main categories of pathogens that humans deal with are viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. The evidence for pathogens that may be beneficial to the immune system is almost entirely for parasitic worms and friendly (commensal) bacteria. In contrast, many viruses can even trigger the onset of autoimmune diseases or allergies.

@lzbth it is definitely a warmer colored bloom, but I have several orange pots around the garden so this does a good job of picking up that color along the back border where most other flowers are cooler colors

@manton yeah, I guess the main issue is, for example, I have a custom config.json where I'm only overriding what I need, but I like to refer back to the other one but now I can't see it :(

Avatar

Anne Sturdivant
@anniegreens

@news well, now I'm not sure I agree with my previous sentiment, perhaps @manton can clarify something for me: previously you had three sections of templates showing the level of override: your custom/override templates, the current theme's template, and the core MB templates. Now there does not appear to be a distinction and I'm actually not entirely sure where my overrides are anymore since it is a flat list without sections.
