A Pathfinder podcast i listen to (BCBParty) does have a sea cucumber character, but he's a familiar so i'm not sure that counts.

Basic color terms in Kenlin

11d 19h ago in conlangs@mander.xyz

I was going to just translate all the English color words i could think of, but i thought a better way to define basic color terms would be looking at pictures of things and sorting those. I used Terraria sprites because they're small and fit into a table like this.

I think when we have the technology to undertake a journey like that finding other intelligent life will be as important to us as it is to the yinrih.

The changes in perspective are just a little jarring, but that could easily be down to the limits of Lemmy formatting and the fact that i'm reading this in dark mode and the horizontal rules are very thin.

I don't often have anything to say about your work, but it's nice to be able to read. This seems like a good time to thank you for posting it here, whether it starts a discussion or not.

This is exactly what i needed to know! Thank you!

I'm not sure whether it has no internal antenna or whether there's just no other nodes around. Inside it looks like the one in this tutorial, except that i have a T-Deck and not a T-Board. The antenna cable already there doesn't look like it connects to anything, unless the cable itself is the antenna.

There's already a hole where an antenna connector should go, i just don't have a connector since one didn't come with the antenna i bought.

I could contact LilyGo but i don't want to wait for shipping a second time if i can just fix what i already have instead.

Both E-ink devices i have now are black and white. That's good enough for me, any extra colors are a bonus. Resolution is a good point. I know text is pretty legible even at small sizes on my small ereader. I'm not sure how much better i'd need a monitor to be. Physical size is something i'm looking out for. I can handle a small screen (even if a big one is nicer), but not too small. I didn't know they don't like cold, but i don't see it being a big issue. And the refresh rate also isn't a big concern, since i could always switch back to my normal screen for games and video.

Creative Item Ideas

I've written a handful of dumb magic items, but none of them have come up in play yet. My favorites are a Wand of Lightning, which is made of copper and can call lightning to the wand's location if you point it at the sky during a storm; and the Solar Tuba of Illumination, which glows when you play it but only works in sunlight.

How does IPFS handle updating edited files?

1mon 28d ago in ipfs@lemmy.ml

Nope, looks like they use different formats. Thanks anyway.

[RESOLVED] Can an imagemap use relative units?

11mon 18d ago in html@programming.dev

Hmm. I wonder if fixing this could be as easy as applying the same styling to the <map> as to the <img>. Not that it matters now.
