I've decided to start teaching myself to sew while I've become stuck at home.
Which means I need to get some math-related things because geometry is a bigger factor in that than I realized.
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to start learning some form of free CAD software for 3D printing stuff, so that's more Unexpected Math.

Edit: Nekkid CAD, nekkid 3D printing, or nekkid math?

I'm the weirdo that likes all three Paizo RPGs.
Some stuff I dislike in 2nd edition. I find weapon proficiency way more confusing than it needs to be, and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around general feat/skill feat stuff and treasure still confuses me.
I love how combat has more of a rhythm and I LOVE what they've done with animal companions and familiars and I LOVE how interchangeable and customizable classes and archetypes are (for example, Tiny T-Rex wanted to make a Spider-Man type character, so he started out a Monk and at 2nd level took the sorcerer dedication archetype feat which allows him to cast sorcerer cantrips where he picked Tanglefoot (shoot out a sticky vine to tangle people (easy enough to say it looks like webs) and since cantrips scale as you go and you can cast them all you want in a day, he'll be tangling people up all damn day. And then, as he gets up in level he'll be able to get web and spider climb).
Oh, hey, look - I was right when I said I was being dumb! Yay!

Oh! Yeah! LM's school and my kids' seem exceptionally similar in terms of over-all reaction to and organization during the whole event.
And maybe more words? Probably smart ones? I'm told my side of politics has the "best words..."
cough
i may be slightly bitter about some things

We just got the formal announcement that Impus Minor's school district is closed for the year.
Putting even more pressure on the teachers to get their acts together and actually start doing something. (The other emails I have are from Impus Minor's Spanish and English teachers saying that sorry, they won't possibly be ready to run any classes at all until at least April 13, 4 full weeks after the shutdown started.)

It seems that my laptop camera died in the middle of yesterday session. It stopped working. I tried to delete and reinstall it in Device Manager. I kept getting it showing back as not working. It was late so I deleted it and turned the computer off. Today it doesn't show at all in device manager when I scan for hardware changes.
Trying to install the drivers manually is unlikely as I have no clue which driver to install from the list.

See if there is a universal driver and try that first.

When I try to add device manually, I get to the list of camera drivers, but it lists a number of specific manufacturers, and I have no idea what the manufacturer of the installed camera is (it always showed as a generic HD WebCam), with no generic usb camera driver on the list. The user manual doesn't contain information about that either.
Notably, the driver that self-installed before this problem occurred yesterday seemed to be a generic USB camera driver but the windows doesn't seem to recognize the camera as camera anymore.
EDIT: Producer's page doesn't have camera drivers either.

I don't think that will work the way you think it will work.
Anyway, I don't think they have enough information to work with...

I was so beat after work last night I forgot to look at FaWtL.
...a gross conceptual error.
Someone said upthread that there's going to be issues between those considered 'vital' or 'essential' and those who are should be sitting on their asses at home or any other gorram place OTHER than where the 'essential' people are at practicing proper social distancing measures and respecting the sacrifices that the 'essential' folks are making on their behalf.
Unfortunately, as NH indicated... we have a huge chunk of #3 who think it's just a nice excuse to have an extended Spring Break LET'S ALL GO SHOPPING WITH THE WHOLE FAMILY BECAUSE WE'RE BORED STAYING AT HOME! who AREN'T practicing even the most minimal of distancing... and several of them have been coughing and hacking, and then give us looks like we're a#~#@s for jumping away from them and then running away from them....
What the self-entitled pricks of all social classes don't realize is that if WE get sick, the store closes. And then they're f+%#ed.

Crap. I have missed that - though it explains her recent photo that blinked on my facebook recently. Best of luck to both of you. May it shrink into nothingness.

Alive and moderately well. I am such a cave dweller no-life, that the only effect of COVID for me is switching from tabletop sessions to online recently, and having to make bigger groceries less often.
