The tsn9 demo site is back up under a new repository, as is this base forum codebase. This represents a break from the tsn8 implementation, and a decision to cease modifying the source code of the underlying forum software, and to try to build the entire tsn experience into a single extension which ...

Well, just as quickly as I was able to set it all up, the tribe platform version of the site will also be taken back down. Staring in Feb 2023, they will not offer a free plan anymore, and I would have to upgrade to a paid plan. This normally wouldn't be much of a problem, except their paid plan is ...

If you like to race real-to-life Hot Wheels cars, they did a pretty good jo...

Anyone else watching HotD (Hot D, as we call it in my house)? What are your thoughts, without giving away any spoilers here... At first, I found it really hard to keep the people's names straight, especially with the Targaryen custom of reusing historical names. And then trying to tie everything bac...

TXNWpKXfxpY I've been playing a lot of No Man's Sky with their most recent update and QoL changes, and only today, after 6 years and >500 hours into my first & only save-game I find out the soundtrack is available to listen to, and it doesn't have the voiceover or fast fade-in/out you get with ...

I did it y'all! I read and finished a book. But I'm not gonna talk about the contents of the book in this post, I'm gonna talk about the structure and why I was actually able to finish it. It's Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir . He's the same guy that did "The Martian" book the movie was bas...

It's that time again! Time for another birthday celebration! Happy birthday, lady!

Ever missed a post on the forums? Long-time members tsn know the feeling. The need to continually check the site for new posts since their last visit, wondering if anyone has replied to their latest remarks or pearls of wisdom. Sure it was made easier with the My Spot page, showing everything new s...

Anyone ever had Prepared Shredded Squid before? It's like jerky, but made from squid; has a sweet, slightly sour flavor, and a strong fishy smell, but is powdery to the touch. I find it delicious, and then I start to think about how sentient cephalopods likely are, and that I'm now eating something ...

Wishing a happy birthday to SaikoubiAkurei!

She also gets the honor of the first cross-post into our discord channel!

Welp, it looks like I won't be learning TypeScript this time. Instead it was just a change in how they construct user mentions where they removed an exclamation mark from the hidden text. Now Oracle is back up and running, and pulling events from the forums, and displaying them in discord. After a c...

Welp, it looks like Discord has decided to move Bots away from message processing and into slash-commands. Which means all message processing is disabled for their bots, and I'll be required to use slash-commands. This really feels like a step backward from what was a "natural language" bo...

Is still probably a very nice person, even though I haven't spoken to her in a long time.
