Changed paths: M bin/build-static.sh

Log Message:

Fix build-static dispatcher to use OS version for tool selection

The dispatcher checked for sass on PATH to decide between legacy (Compass) and modern (Dart Sass) builds, but Ubuntu 18.04's ruby-compass package also installs a sass binary. This caused the base image build to route to build-static-modern.sh which passes --no-source-map, a Dart Sass flag that Ruby Sass doesn't understand.

Check /etc/lsb-release instead: 18.04 gets legacy, everything else gets modern.

Changed paths: A bin/build-static-legacy.sh A bin/build-static-modern.sh M bin/build-static.sh M etc/docker/base/Dockerfile R etc/docker/base/build-static-legacy.sh

Log Message:

Bifurcate build-static.sh into dispatcher + two implementations

The base (Ubuntu 18.04) Dockerfile was copying build-static-legacy.sh over bin/build-static.sh at build time, which dirtied the git working tree. When child images (worker, web) later ran git pull, git refused because the local file had been overwritten.

Instead of this copy-overwrite pattern, build-static.sh is now a thin dispatcher that detects which tools are available (sass → modern, compass → legacy) and execs the appropriate implementation. The legacy script moves from etc/docker/base/ into bin/ alongside the modern one, and the Dockerfile no longer needs to copy or overwrite anything.

Log Message:

Make build-static scripts fail on sass/compass errors

Previously, missing or failing sass/compass would print a warning but exit 0, allowing Docker builds to succeed with no CSS output. Now both scripts exit 1 when the compiler is missing or compilation fails.

I saw someone asserting that x vampire killer can't really be considered a *killer* because in any verse with vampires vampires aren't considered to be people

and a, way to be confidently wrong

but b, if you think really, really hard about it, you might be able to see an angle where that is indeed
the problem.

Current state of google searching:

AI summary did as requested and compared weight of pathfinder handy haversack and weight of fjallraven backpacks, saying many were lighter and some were heavier, but I still had to go to the fjallraven website and go through each backpack individually before I found the one that weighs the same.

Also the AI has a different answer for how many grams in 5lb than the regular google.

I have seen this thing screw up the maths in so so many ways. So many.

Asking it for two things is ambitious, but I thought it might link to both pages if I asked for two at once. Instead it linked neither and mixed DnD setting wikis and reddit discussions with reviews pages, when the literal rules for this seperate system are on the web and the product listings likewise. And it did so confidently and fluently while telling me the thing I had asked it for did not exist.

... I still don't actually need a real life handy haversack, but the answer was Keb 52 W. Which is about the right size in l too, and available in red.

One (1) duplicate letter from the DWP, which I had actually requested, because the council is apparently incapable of giving me the concessionary rate on the basis of disability without me providing one letter per year from the DWP telling them I'm still disabled, despite the fact that for anything that is not the allotment rent they can work this out from all the other information available to them without needing me to have Special Executive function;

three (3) rolls of washi tape from Sweden, one of which I have been Tempted By for probably actual years at this point and the other two of which are relevant for this year's notebook set-up and I was sad and wanted a treat;

and one (1) book, Citrus: A History, because it was £4.56, on a topic I have previously been interested in, and Interest Has Been Expressed in me yelling about it. (When will I get to it? Unclear, because once I've finished reading The Rose Field I should probably do some more pain reading, but. Eventually.)

(And why have I been sad? I genuinely do not know; my brain has just been having a Sustained Patch of Uncooperative. I would like it to stop. In addition to post, today's efforts in that direction have included a batch of pineapple upside-down banana bread, this time with some of the flour replaced with almond meal.)

Today I dreamed I went in the kitchen and found eggs frying
and John Constantine had turned up in actual person
not solely to make breakfast.

So I dreamed acute embarrassment
as if I had sent a fan letter that somehow convinced him there was an emergency.

I mean he is known for turning up to be seen by his writers, but breakfast would be new.

I also dreamed that Ianto Jones was interviewing new applicants for Torchwood
by booking them all in the same hotel, including him, so he could see what they were like outside the formal interview context
and then there would be test/games.

Only then the Hulk turned up and there was a lot of machine gun fire for real, which was rather out of scope for a first interview, though admittedly a fair view of the actual job.

Jonathan from Buffy tried to resolve the situation by using a love spell on Hulk, because he is known for protecting the one he loves.
Unfortunately it turned out magic users had tried it before, so now Hulk was not only not in love, but *deeply pissed off* with Jonathan in specific and particular, which was not going well.

Honestly the applicant who never emerged from their room and seemed to be playing computer games with the sound turned right up was probably having the most surviveable life.

... until Hulk turned the whole whole hotel into something with a flip lid anyway.

Waking up feeling like you accidentally pulled the fire alarm and now everyone you most respect is outside in their sleepwear seeing you in your lack of sleepwear and they all know why
cannot be recommended actually.

Neither can the knowledge that if actual adventure called I'd have to be just that apologetic about it, given relative abilities etc.

If I was writing it though this would be the beginning and the point of the story would be like those Doctor Who episodes where he meets a bunch of random people on a bus or something and it turns out if they work together even random ordinary people can do great things.

... or it would be Midnight. But John Constantine is actually who you want around for Midnight. So that works out.

Take action today because the public comment period on two gender-affirming care bans at the federal level closes 2/17. Anonymous comments are allowed. More details at the link.

ETA: If we share a fandom, I will write for you if you make a public comment on this subject. If you make two, I will write for you twice!

See this post for details.

Current Mood: furious
Current Music: Isn't there a line about freedom in there somewhere

The public comment period is open until 2/17/26 on two regulations. One would prohibit use of public funds for hospitals that provide gender-affirming care to minors, and the other would prohibit the use of Medicaid or CHIP funds for gender-affirming care for minors.

As people of conscience, we should speak out in defense of the young people who cannot vote against this.

Federal Register Comment Area 1 re: hospitals.

Federal Register Comment Area 2 re: Medicaid and CHIP.

I have a standing offer in my journal to write for people who make donations to food banks, Médecins Sans Frontières, and Stand With Minnesota. I am adding in a drabble or limerick per comment on these topics because it's urgent.

In this co-op ARPG, you and three friends battle your way through timed dungeon runs, collecting gear and gaining new abilities. As your power grows, you unlock higher difficulties that put new twists on what you've seen before. Enemies learn new attacks, bosses hit like trucks, and new mechanics like falling meteors and exploding ice will require you to adapt your strategies. The game doesn't end, it just keeps scaling up forever until you either reach the limit of your skills, get bored, or the game season resets and everyone goes back to square one.

four characters in combat with sentient plants in a colorful fantasy world with magic spell effects going off as a timer ticks down in the corner — *Wraithtide Vault, aka Freehold If You Squint*

In other words, this is the Mythic+ game mode from World of Warcraft, without the rest of the MMO. I think for people to whom that means something, the reaction tends to be pretty polarized, either "That sounds terrible" or "This is the game I've been wanting for ten years, TAKE MY MONEY!!" I definitely fall into the latter camp, and having now played the first season of early access, I am pleased to say that I'm having a great time.

( If the look and feel of the game were any closer to WoW, Blizzard would sue. )

Fellowship is on Steam for $24.99 USD. The second season of early access starts on February 19th, so that would be a convenient time to jump in since we'll all be starting from scratch again.

In the comments of

spikedluv's final post, which she made on Feb. 2, there's info saying that she died unexpectedly later that day, with a link to her obituary. :( No cause of death given.

Thank you,

shipperslist, for the heads-up.

(Note: I'm taking the info in good faith as posted; I don't know the person who shared it, and while

spikedluv and I were mutuals for a long time, I never knew her wallet name. But the obit info matches what I did know and she was an extremely regular poster, so even a day or two of silence was worrying.)
