Yeah I remember IE5 and NS4, as well as the Firebird/Phoenix/Firefox naming joys back in the day.

If you want to blow your brains out, try getting XHTML 1.1 working in IE6. It is indeed possible if you modify the XHTML DTD. Interestingly it'd render shit so much better since it'd use MSXML instead of Trident as the rendering engine. Sadly it would add about 400k to the page since it needed to load a custom DTD...

Been both fighting and supporting my partner. She is stubbornly independent but also somewhat insecure so I'm trying to figure it all out. Reached out to a counsellor today so fingers crossed

Upside is I've started DJing again. It's been... about 15 years since I did it (at bars etc) and it's vert cathartic. I'm enjoying it although now being in apartment my timing is limited. My brother sent me some mixes I did in early-/mid -2000s which has been inspiring

https://soundcloud.com/legios_81/sets/mark-andrew for the record. It's mainly hard house and trance as a warning for everyone. From 2004-2005...

I wonder if they'll just use WebRTC and use peer-to-peer. Which is you know, revolutionary... cough

I've known quite a few people/groups that are poly and I dated someone who was poly for a while too. I did it because I didn't feel like I had to deal with 100% of my partner because that would have crushed me.

My info is purely anecdotal but two super common threads that kept on appearing is there were people who were poly, but were never actually poly and just said it because their partner wanted to be so they said they were too and that the people who were super committed to poly all were trying to fill a gap in their lives and had a lot of insecurities in general.

Most hated the idea of ever being alone, not just in 'a relationship' but actually just being by themselves.

I once worked with a team who would have useful tests like (it's been years since I used Jasmine so not going to try), but things like if true === true.

Yeah thanks dipshit.

I've heard the Warrnambool line has similar issues too (plus it overlaps with the Geelong line)

I 100% agree with what you just said. I used to be a smartarse (and also a dumbarse in hindsight) and have realised the value in de-escalation and letting things lie. There are times where it's OK to say "I haven't considered that" or "I don't know enough to really have an opinion", even if you do know.

Even if you're convinced you're right and they're wrong, if neither of you are going to change your stance just simmer down and let it go. You're never going to change each others minds.

I took the last week and a half off from work and was happy to see when I finally checked my emails (bored at the airport) it didn't look like anything went to shit! Was nice to get away for a bit, and need to do it more often but tend to procrastinate for stupid reasons...

Also supposed to go on a second date tomorrow to a gig but we'll see if that actually happens or she got bored and moved on while I was on holidays.

But in a good mood. Just got home a couple of hours ago and doing some cleanup/chores.

It's been a while since I've actually felt 'happy' vs 'anhedonic'.
