Pluses (+) and minuses (−) of this day

[PluMGMK]

Glad your hearing's back! If you had to stick with Mono Steo, maybe you could have learned C# next! Yes I know that's not a proper sharp sign Fifo XD

+ I also started a programming course at work today.
– It's forty hours of content and I'm not sure I'll have the necessary time to concentrate on it before the end of the year

I like the pun, and the small text just made me laugh even more.

+ I feel more productive lately.
+ I'm finding learning all the fundamentals of different languages fun, even just simple HTML / CSS.

I don’t blame ya, it’s faster and easier to just type a pound sign. The pun was hilarious tho

+ Glad you are having fun learning the beginnings of web development!
+ Finally started on the first day of CA. It's already halfway released and I'm still on the first day.

Thanks, I got past the HTML fundamentals and next is CSS stuff. It's mostly CSS I wanted to become familiar with, and of course just generally styling a site. I would even use the Pi 5 I recently bought just to host it and experiment with it.

Speaking of which, I did install phpBB on the Pi and ran it just as a test. Seeing it makes me appreciate what Hunch does here even more, because there's a lot under the hood.

Oh, and better late than never. Grandpa Steo would probably be even slower.

[Greengoop]

+ My cold is going I think!

- I have to go to school in 5 minutes

[Steo]

- My ear started being weird again last night and it was giving me throbbing pain / spasms, which made it impossible to sleep.
- I think at this point, it's probably an ear infection. All I can do is leave it alone and hope that it subsides in time.
- I will be Mono Steo for a little longer.

EDIT:

+ ok so my ear is partially able to hear again. I guess it is just blocked then, but I assumed since it was so painful that maybe it was infected. Could be both...

Steo wants to take my job! Crap!

I think you'll do well Steo, especially as you use the Pi 5 to help experiment and tinker around with projects.

I noticed my one project I stopped working on a couple years back needs some code severely updated, since it was kind of copy/pasted from my main website for some of the things, which uses very outdated CSS 3 coding... Since things are more standardized now, it'll be a nice cleanup job. Maybe I should just do something and revamp the whole thing.

+ Plus side of this conversation is being thankful for Hunchman teaching me something new to me with CSS.

- I keep going to bed late now, or not being able to sleep fully throughout the night. The night before last I tried going to bed early, it didn't help.

Haha. .

Thanks, and yeah I think it would be fun to experiment with to learn things, even just locally hosting them.

I wish you the best of luck with cleaning this up. I hadn't been extremely familiar with HTML / CSS before other than some extreme basics, so maybe it's good to be learning it now with more modern code.

Yeah about that.

- I went to bed way too late last night.

- I'm feeling bleh today.

[Reese Riverson]

Yeah about that.

- I went to bed way too late last night.

- I'm feeling bleh today.

Yeah, I know about that all too well. Considering the fact that I had gone to bed before you did. Since we were talking on Discord and all.

- I ended up waking up at 4am, needing to use the bathroom, which was a couple of hours before the alarm would go off.
+ I did manage to fall back asleep after that.
+ Right now anyway, I'm not as tired as I was then.
+/- I had breakfast, so I will not end up wanting lunch now.

The fact that you're 7 hours behind and went to bed first really shows I have to start going to bed earlier.

Apparently someone started drilling just before 8AM here also. My girlfriend heard it, but I slept through it lol. A few people were complaining about it in a group chat; people who live in the apartments who clearly got woken up by it and weren't very happy.

- Not feeling too well, bit of a headache and my stomach feels weird.
+ I can still hear properly and I think the ear pain is subsiding a lot, even though it's sensitive.
+ I'm still feeling in a positive mood, and trying to free myself of any stress.

[Greengoop]

+/- School Christmas dinner. Very overpriced at £3.80 tho

- Stilp another day!!??? it’ll be the longest 6 hours of my life

I wonder what time Hoodcom goes to sleep then? Probably earlier than I do! I guess you usually go to bed before I do to normally.

I think at times like these when we get stressed out we should chill and relax for a day or so to destress, if you get my drift
Anyways hope you'll be alright!

.................

+ Feeling a lot better today, guess the few days of watching Hunger Game movies and playing mobile games helped me.
- Still not going out early enough to walk. I get up early but I just seem to.....procrastinate on that. I'm never going to be able to achieve that weight if I keep putting things off like that though.
+ Gonna try again today, and hit the weights.
+ Oh and did i mention I'm going to play the Indigo Disk DLC today? Hell yeah this is gonna be fun!

To answer this question, it was shortly after 10PM, Central Time Zone for me. If that tells you how late Steo was up by.

+ Still feeling okay and not super tired!

[Steo]

It was like 5AM when I went to bed, and my head currently kind of hurts.

- I have procrastinated all day too, mostly due to feeling tired and bleh.

[The Jonster]

Oh, I also have Central Time Zone. Right now it's almost close to noon.

+/- Had a meltdown on Discord a few days ago, but I think staying away from there and RPC for a day or so was helpful enough for me to calm down. I focused on watching some movies i wanted to watch.
- My cousin's Hulu has expired and she hasn't paid for her plan, so I can't watch anymore. Dang...

That happens to me all the time Probably because I drink so much tea…

– Had to work from home today due to punctured car tire
+ Got it repaired without too much hassle in the end
– 2023 has not been kind to my wheels
± Getting all four tires changed in January (since they're nearing end of life), so that'll hopefully be one thing less to worry about for a while… *touch wood*

[Reese Riverson]

Yeah, isn't caffeine part of what causes that? I feel I drink soda too close to when I need to go to bed at times and that's what does it.

+ Got more work done on a project tonight, it was easier to work on while having less distractions on hand.
- I'm tired though, and should be going to bed now.

[DaveRattlehead]

- I went to the Christmas lunch today.
+ Luckily, I sat next to some nice people and we talked about non-work stuff, which is pleasing because honestly I'm a bit sick of talking about work every single time we meet.
+ What was supposed to be a boring meeting turned to be a nice talk.

[Greengoop]

+ it was the last day of term!!! Lol

+/- I had too much pizza for dinner
