i updated my online media player today. i added seek fwd and backward buttons. i fixed the random play function. i also modified the efficiency of overall player by saving file urls instead of seeking a new one upon each play.

quick search for a simple SMS 2factor authentication in PHP shows howto using libraries & services. WHY? Perhaps because I'm only seeking a simple SMS verification? No hardware key, QR code, no biometrics (are those part of 2fa?) Is it not as simple as sending email to the mobile ISP SMS gateway?

Good Lord. My cats 🤎🧡❤️ going outside. One of them starts celebrating as soon as I break out the gps collars. When we go outside they're sooooo happy. RUNNING + PLAYING I feel terrible for moving to a 3rd floor apartment @ a complex with many dogs & many crazies. I will do better from here on.

My cat Bee is so well behaved it is amazing. He allows me to put terramycin in his eye with no resistance. He allows me to clean his teeth when need be. He comes to me when I call for him. Im so thankful he is my friend.

Just watched another video about how animal torture is integrated into the meat food industry. Just found a good source of vegan protein powder to replace my whey. Aside from the cat food and milk (for my cats), my pantry might be completely vegan. Im getting there slowly but surely.

My cats 🧡 being outside & I feel terrible for moving 2 the 3rd floor. My diabetic cat literally strengthens up & gets more alert outside, it's part of her overall wellness. When my lease is up here, I'm out asap. I must be n a location where its safe for them to roam & to run outside.

Im not a clinical/behavioral psychologist. Terms I do not, and never have used : Autistic, O.C.D, manic depressive, bipolar, narcissistic, A.D.D. + a few more I cant think of right now. Its usually ppl stigmatizing one another. Im not certified/qualified to diagnose nor recognize these conditions.

Same thing for the word : cringe. The word is overused, and seems to be a replacement for several other terms. The word cringe has a specific meaning. It has become a slang term? When someone describes something as "cringe" I immediately question their vocabulary skills.

The use of the word "leverage" is a red flag for me. The word has a specific meaning. Tell me an element is in use,how, & why. I drink protein shakes and take multivitamins for nutrition. Saying : "I leverage protein shakes and multivitamins for nutrition" is dumb spin speak. Do Not.

I just visited a website and the language presented was a mix of spin, technobabble, and militaristic jargon. Barely comprehensive. Ive been suspicious of any commercial entity that does not just say what they mean. Let me see the product and observe its specifications. Period.

I JUST MET MY CAY L.L'S SIBLING. I still go back to the old location where he joined us, and I feed the feral cats. Today a cat who looked almost exactly like him showed up. This cat was feral, but same color, same fur, same size. 🩶

So perhaps I might have a change of plans. I was not ever EVER gonna pay that student loan. I was planning on possible expatriation. Which is still an option because this society is still a violent racist police state with or without the bogus student loan.

HOLY GUACAMOLE!!!! My student loan discharge was approved. College I went to was a total scam!!!! The school was subsequently investigated by the feds, lost accreditation and closed. I was left with a zombie loan account. Status : Processing Discharge YEEEAH BOYYEEE!!!!

Cats are happy & healthy. Bills are paid. I am probably lazier than the cats believe it or not. My primary condition right now is that my job has left me sore & tired, and Im detoxifying so I cannot drink nor smoke. Anxious + insomnia. The cats are showing ❤️ tho, so its all good.

Unfortunately drunk ass cannot be trusted to maintain a local hard drive at home without breaking or dropping it. I need reliable cloud storage. Terrible that my files disappear on Dr_0pbox. Terrible that my bad habits cause me to lose and break valuable hardware at home.

I'm able to get that lost music collection again. User is sharing it with me. Not modern songs, old obscure soul funk music. A few thousand songs. When I noticed they were missing from my dropbox I was furious. Paying $100something a year for this crap?! To delete my shit when Im not looking?! 😡

The cats outside are happy and healthy. They are feral cats, but one of them greets me & meows at me. The other one keeps a 10 foot distance at least. And only meows when I show up he is solo. They are communicating with the primate as a means of getting food.

I found the lost music collection online. User will not share it with me. I wrote a program to search and d/l each song, but its wonky. IF I can get this person to hook me up with the mp3s in the folder my life will improve.

Its not terrible but still bad. My cats have normally roamed inside and outside as they please. During winter they usually stay inside. This year I moved to the 3rd floor, and now winter is over. They can't roam free in & out the door. Lazy ass needs to get up and let the cats play outside.

Signs of a probable crappy tutorial. 1. It's in a webinar format. This often means the lesson was loosely planned out, but specific preparations for demos are not. 2. There is a specific tone taken by the instructor. As if he or she is annoyed or trying to get thru the lesson. Lazy Ass

I know web development to an expert level in which : if I can think it, I can develop it. Down to the details meticulously. PHP/mySQL/CSS/HTML/Javascript. However, when I look at any modern web development forum, or social media feed I can only interpret appr. 5% of anything posted. 🤸🏾‍♂️

School fist fights are hilarious to me. School shootings are tragic and heart breaking, not funny. But if the only damage is temporary injury, and broken property then I LOL. K-12 School is a modern day Gulag and the students should lead a violent Nationwide Worker's Revolt.

I have one of those super duper ultimate gaming hard drives with 1,000,000 games. Yesterday I beat Renegade for the NES. Today I picked a random game : Streets of Rage 4(story mode) and its the same game engine only 30+ years later.

I got a long haired cat. Sometimes theres small bits of poop stuck to his behind. Yesterday, he had an entire load stuck and dried back there. Super gross. So, I learned I must keep his rear end shaved off. Learned the hard way. What the fuck.

Smile. And try to be on good behavior. I do not leave home without means of providing evidence, and if need be: giving consequences. This is how I roll in 2025. Safety First!

I find myself taking shots in pitch black darkness for an hour or two in each case. finally one person, on one thread, on a random message board has the solution, and like 200+ responses thanking them. Search engines mostly censored message board results since years ago. This is bullshit.

in each case, on the raspberry pi : What the fucking hell? I mean really, how is anybody supposed to find out interpret a kernel/firmware/hardware conflict? I checked the logs, its always pure technobabble. The attempt to connect to the wifi gives nonsense errors, or no error at all.

Windows degrades to terrible. Linux was good for eggheads, also pretty terrible for the layman. Windows is bloatware & spyware which just eventually slows any normal system to a buggy useless slow lag. Linux always requires some obscure needle in a haystack tech fix to do regular basic functions.

well, windows is now spyware minus even hiding it. but I am using linux on Raspberry PI. Which is also pretty terrible.
