This is in Safari, and I don’t think there’s been any recent update.

Additional: it’s not happening on any other website I post on. The problem exists when I’m accessing someone else’s posts as well. EDIT: it seems to be only happening on my phone; persisting after resetting.

I just noticed this today. All of the formatting tools for posting are greyed out and inaccessible for me. It doesn’t matter if it’s a new post or if I’m editing. I can still do some that I know the codes for, but it’s problematic going forward. Anyone else having a similar issue?

My mind immediately went from: Emperor Joseph II: My dear young man, don't take it too hard. Your work is ingenious. It's quality work. And there are simply too many notes, that's all. Just cut a few and it will be perfect. To: Hannibal Lecter: My dear young man, don't take it too hard. Your...

That’s cool! On so many levels, That. Is. COOL! I’d love to do something like that, but I lack: 1) a spouse 2) fingerprints

Sometimes, it’s surprising. Diamonds are the hardest natural mineral, and are facetable because they have a property called cleavage. Hit with force at certain angles, and you can literally just nick a piece clean off. And because of this, diamonds set in rings are usually well protected by...

Gilson Lavis has died. https://popculture.com/celebrity/news/classic-rock-stars-death-announced-by-bandmate-jools-holland-gilson-lavis-was-74/

Some thoughts: 1) I’m glad to see Stargate is coming back in some form- and not as a reboot. 2) even though I have Prime (through my folks), I probably won’t be watching it. I generally don’t watch shows of any kind on my computers, tablets, or phones. I haven’t even set up any of our...

Sort of like Octopus punching fish, until recently thought to be just them violating the Wheaton rule. https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/octopus-and-fish-work-together-to-catch-prey

Re: From the “experience creates wisdom” files, I just avoided using unsuitable materials for a nifty beadwork design I had in mind. I designed a hematite bracelet, and as I was shopping for materials, I found out that new colors were available*. The new colors inspired me to modify my...

Our gardener has to work with our computerized irrigation system. Lapidaries use all kinds of machines that help them control their cuts & polishing. Luthiers, jewelers, custom motorcycle builders and the like use CNC for parts. Some have started using 3D printing for certain things. I’ve...

I was thinking along the same lines as @gnarlygninja- this sounds like it’s heading into Thai culinary traditions. Check out some Thai recipes with similar ingredients. One thing I’ve seen before that might be relevant is “empty jar peanut butter sauce”, like these...

Rebecca Heineman has died. https://www.pcgamer.com/gaming-industry/legendary-game-designer-programmer-space-invaders-champion-and-lgbtq-trailblazer-rebecca-heineman-has-died/

We had a couple nighttime dips into the high 30s a few weeks ago, but it’s been highs in the 70s-80s since then.

I’m 58. I have had pets most of my life. I remember something about most of them, and a lot about a few of them.

M’lard.

Sometimes, that’s where I stop, then consider deleting my prospective post. Or actually do. However, I occasionally also think about other participants in the thread- current and future. If what I have to say is potentially very important to the discussion, I usually decide to continue with...

I generally don’t favor cheddar solo on grilled cheese sandwiches. But besides that, was it pre-grated? Pre-grated cheeses sometimes have anti-clumping agents added to them, and don’t have quite the same flavor as sliced or self-grated cheeses.

That sounds interesting! Roasted carrots tending towards the sweet side; the pickled spiciness of the kimchi & sriracha as a counterpoint.
