@trinsec all of Microsoft office is a nightmare. Same thing happens in Excel. And, the worst part? Same computer. Start up plugged into external monitors, it'll look normal. Start up not connected, and you have a 4k display? Completely different, and it's a difficult to find option to disable. I generate charts on Excel that I populated into PowerPoint and the format changes ever so slightly when I do it at home vs work with 2 external monitors. No one else really cares so I don't bother anymore ๐
@trinsec ๐คฃ our cats don't seem to fart all that much
@trinsec I am really enjoying Starship's Mage so far! Only the first "book", 60% through (episode 4). I can't read it before bed because I would end up staying up too late ๐
@trinsec ooh! I'll add this to my list. Space wizards are my favorite ๐คฉ
@scalzi I loved the last emperox series!

@trinsec thanks! How's life been?
@trinsec definitely Minecraft season! I've been playing exclusively solo but showing a friend through screenshots my tree forts and she's obsessed with them now ๐
@trinsec He was my first kitty. I wish they got to meet each other! They would've gotten along so well - they both just want to be friends with everything.
Facebook's been pretty awful with all of the ads and suggestions. Annoying that they got rid of the chronological timeline option.
I wonder if Suske's heart condition is similar but to a thankfully to a FAR lesser extent? Zeus only really expected to live 2, 3 years at most, but made it to almost 5. Binx's teeth are beautiful but Babish needs some help.
The US has been really awful with COVID. We did have that lockdown back in April/May. Most of the engineers at work were furloughed and came back late July. We're working on building a new plant next door so I've been swamped with that since they came back. Mid-May, we chemists worked from home a bit. But other than that, have been extra careful and keeping away from people even moreso than usual.
Same at home! I was pretty solid into Final Fantasy XIV (MMORPG) but have shifted a little bit to Star Trek Online. Playable Cardies! Same with MUSHing. Almost all of the coding I do now is Excel.
Yup, remembered me well enough! :)
Happy New Year to you too! :D
@trinsec Thanks for the welcome!
Zeus had a heart problem since birth (HCM) and was on medication to prolong his life. Almost three years ago, he developed a saddle thrombosis and a few hours later he needed to be put to sleep.
Since then, we have gotten two cats: Binx was about 2 years old when we adopted him and Babish was a kitten (and an obnoxious kitten at that). Binx loves to go outside but he's allowed only on a leash. Babish is absolutely terrified of the outside though.
My neighborhood has a fairly low speed limit - residential is 25mph here - but there are people who do double.
What have you been up to?
@trinsec definitely agree! If Binx was an outdoor cat, he'd be kept inside too! The cars in my neighborhood go too fast, and there's also coyotes
