@ZahmbieND This is is super helpful. I didn’t realize that registration and DNS were distinct. And I think that’s what’s been making this so confusing.
@futurebird I hardly ever use image search anymore, but when I did, I mostly used the genus name (usually without the species name). This is known as "dino style". Unfortunately, in the era of automated garbage generation, it doesn't work with most famous extinct genera. : (
@futurebird @jopabinia.bsky.social now floundering about this list of footwear styles trying to figure out which, if any, looks the way persian slippers are expected to look, and feeling very confused.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_shoe_styles
@futurebird but Bey is the best performer who has ever lived, and therefore can make ANY fashion look amazing, so I feel people who don't have any special performing abilities trying to copy it may find they just can't make it look good.(Perhaps I'm unduly influenced by growing up in where that fasion has always been common, and for all my life most heavily favored by the kinds of assholes who drive suspiciously clean oversized pickup trucks and shout obscenities at pedestrians)
@futurebird later parts of a story are naturally interconnected with earlier parts, so the difficulty of writing each further sentence grows in proportion to the square of what has already been written. So I usually stop writing after a page or so, before things get hard.
@sidd_harth0_5h4h Absolutly not. Not after the whole "cat-coin/cult/pyramid scheme" debacle that happened last time. There are STILL "acolytes" who show up and leave tuna at our door.
@futurebird having been raised in a zealotinous religion, one which was (in)famous for its "milk before meat" practices of layering its lessons so the more objectional material required going much deeper into the religion, I feel I ought to have something important to say here. But I don't.
Really, if you are concerned your first paragraph isn't... catchy enough. Consider how you would write it if you had to send it as a text. Really cleans out the fluff and helps it get to the point in a way that can matter in an opening.
A “CW keyboard” is a device used by hams to type morse code— so such a gadget as a “light typewriter” isn’t totally mad— there have been adjacent machines:http://qrqcwnet.ning.com/m/discussion?id=1993813%3ATopic%3A19631
