Nope, but I found the problem. A kernel update also came with a brand-new bug. A subsequent kernel update fixed the issue. I've been running prints overnight with no midnight disconnects for days now.

The print job didn’t fail, so I’m going to write this off as a kernel bug until/unless it happens again. I’m just glad I can run long jobs again!

Checked that and the systemd timers. No dice. However, this problem started right around the time I updated my kernel package, and there was another update that I applied yesterday. I connected the printer and let it sit overnight. No midnight disconnections.

I’m running a print job now that should run past midnight. Fingers crossed that this was just some kind of transient kernel bug!

Those are HUGE increases on the Seneschal abilities. It really validates all the criticisms about them being underpowered when the season started.

I’m Gen X and I’ve been in Information Technology for twenty-eight years. My generation was there at the dawn of personal computing. Yes, there are less technically-savvy people in every generational group, but “older Gen Xers” might consider what you’ve said to be… hmm, what’s the right term? Oh, yes. “Bullshit stereotyping based on age” is the term I’m grasping for here.

I’m well aware of the ELF (Extremely Low-Frequency Radiation) panic. This actually started in the 1970s and rose to national prominence around the late 90s, when it was covered to death by every news outlet. And it was just as silly then as it is now. France is just being France.

And that has little or nothing to do with which generational group you call home.

I've never loved the design of Apple's leather watch bands. I use a leather "biker cuff" band that I bought off Etsy. It looks and feels way better! All the Apple ones felt... skinny.

Amen. I'm super impressed. I struggle to paint all the dungeon tiles and buildings I print, and some of them are so fiddly. The OP is a maestro!

If one is Thunderbolt and another is AirPlay, it works. I have a 50" AirPlay-capable TV mounted in my office, and a 27" 4K display on my desk. I use a cable for the 27" and AirPlay for the 50".

Reasons I use my M1 MacBook Air:

  1. Real estate. Thanks to AirPlay and the Thunderbolt port, I can have three desktops going at once with all my open windows.
  2. Intel binaries still run on it via Rosetta 2.
  3. Control -- I have more access to the OS, the command line, etc.
  4. Virtualization -- Apple Silicon is built on ARM, so I can virtualize any ARM-based Linux distribution using VMware Fusion. (I run Fedora in a VM.)
  5. Input -- despite iPads having the ability to accept keyboard and touchpad input these days, the pointer is still pretty clumsy.

And lots more, but that's a good start for me.

Thundarr the Barbarian. It had super-science. It had sorcery. It had anthros. And it had high adventure! It was basically animated Gamma World, and it was fun to see which ruined cities showed up each week.

Close second: The New Adventures of Flash Gordon. Prince Thunn was my first real furry crush as a kid. Seeing a lion-man in a loincloth and manacles run around with his very close friend Flash was... um... inspirational.
