I haven’t posted about this here but I started taking a GLP-1 the first week of December for weight loss as recommended by my PCP. The results have been astonishing. Consistent loss, no food noise anymore, I feel fullness triggers again. The trade off is for about one day a week, I feel nauseous.

Thanks! Confirmation of similar understanding is good enough for me! 😊

@diana2.bsky.social as the only person I know who has played Yo-Kai watch, you’re the resident expert. If we have YW2: Psychic Specters, do we need the other versions? It’s my understanding that it is essentially the “definitive version” similar to like Pokémon Crystal.

Last year I tracked all the movies, books, and games I consumed and that changed my behaviors (opting to finish rather things than starting something new); I felt accomplished. This year I did not do that, and I did not finish a single book or game…
Lesson learned: be intentional with your time.

I said this phrase to a dude who was complaining to me about his shoes getting dirty. That made him livid and GOD it was so freeing. Highly recommend.

I started this fun little journey making Listenarr 13 days ago on Oct. 6th as a way to learn C# and getting a better understanding of Vue (specially Pinia and Vite). It’s wild in 13 days I now have a complete a fully working, end to end, application. Added > Downloaded > Imported.

I’ve been working on making Listenarr more automated from end to end. I fixed a lot of the initial launch bugs; getting the workflow and docker builds just right was a fight for my life though.

Listenarr is out and you can now access its pre-release executables along with Docker images. Give it a shot!

I should’ve made a thread for all these Listenarr update posts, but I’m in too deep and committed now.

Today for Listenarr:
- I fix some login related issues and spruced up the related UI.
- Added API key generation and authentication for API backend security.
- Added inline internal library search.
- Added multi-file support for individual audiobooks (for disc/chapter based mp3s).

Today on Listenarr I worked on the quality score breakdown and a authentication method. The latter being pretty complex and super important for self-hosting!

For Listenarr today I added:
- Search result scoring based on quality profile for both manual and automatic search.
- Better bulk editing.
- Automatic search and downloading with queuing and quality cutoff.
- Various UI/UX changes to help user recognition. (colors and icons)

My writing time is limited because I'm working on a FOSS project called Listenarr, similar to Sonarr but for audiobooks. Readarr has been scrapped making this a need in my stack.

The joys of youth. Falling asleep without a care in the world whenever he wants.

Just a boy falling asleep after school while playing Pokémon Violet after getting his Shiny Miraidon (non-legit I’m sure). Thanks random FB trading groups! Crazy to think he’ll be another year older this week. Each year goes by faster and faster.

That’s great. Without an “add to cart” to bulk checkout it’s very tedious to use though, but I understand it’s beta. Also some series images are not working on the collection screen (works fine when drilling down into series), and my DSTLRY purchase that was transferred does not load.

Video gamer Electronic Arts to be bought in largest-ever private equity buyout valued at $55 billion Electronic Arts, the video game maker, is being acquired and taken private for about $52.5 billion in what could become the largest-ever buyout funded by private-equity firms.

Oh the Saudis are buying EA? I can’t wait for the FIFA mode where we enslave people to build a World Cup stadium and then cover up our crimes against humanity. JK I’ve never played an EA sports game. Sad to see EA die this way though.

Hey Bluesky friends, does anyone have an extra Shiny Koraidon/Miraidon code for Scarlet/Violet? My son really wants a shiny Miraidon.

Loose Yo-Kai Watch 2: Psychic Specters averaging $154

Loose Yo-Kai Watch 3 averaging $368

@diana2.bsky.social I’m please to share with you that my son is enjoying Yo-Kai Watch. My wallet is not pleased because 2 (all versions, but especially Psychic Specters) and 3 are expensive as hell.
