yeah, i can understand it from the perspective of it being marginal value but the windows, in general, on this island are awful
doors also...
a key phenomenon that is very common here is sudden gusts of wind out of nowhere that are so strong they slam windows and doors
yet sliding windows, doors and shutters are almost nonexistent
there is a few, more modern buildings i've seen with this issue in mind but they are pretty uncommon
fiat real estate and fiat construction, it's a bane of my existence

i just had a comical experience with #mochi the #catstr just now
i put out some of these char grilled beef chunks for him to eat, and the window was open and a bunch of noisy buzzy bumble-flies came in and started harassing him because meat
he fully freaked out over the flies, to the point where he was retreating to the stairs to hide from them while i was trying to locate and eliminate these pieces of shit fucking hate these things also
me and mochi have a lot in common, two things being high sensory acuity
his is typical to the species but he is sick at the moment so like me he is also irritable
yes, the main reason why i'm so bitey and jumpy is because i'm sick, and congrats, assholes, because this means i'm even more determined than ever in my life to purge your shitty arses from existence like i did to the two stupid bumble flies
not necessarily by killing you, that would be a bit weird and excessive, when i can just shut you out
and if it was my property, this cottage, it would have insect screens on every window yesterday, and there would not be flies
we get a few mosqquitoes here, but not many, idk why, probably because it's a bit too cold for their life cycle, but there is some, and they are very annoying when they show up to bug me when i'm sleeping, and leave their injection wounds all over my exposed skin
it was just funny as hell tho, i mean, sad, again, to watch the cat being distressed but funny also because his behaviour was so sympatico to my own feeling towards these pests
me and my mochi are gonna make our own little space in the world, and he is so sympatico to me that he is helping me focus on the important things that make the biggest impacts
you may think it's just some livestock but cats are so intelligent that they can be something even more connected than even dogs emotionally
he learns things so fast, that i just say words now that i have trained him to associate with places and parts of my body and bam he's on it like lightning, when i say his name, and he is asleep, he wakes up and ears point at me and sleepy eyes look towards me
i have a special affinity with cats, i think, because i have top percentile sensory acuity, inherited via my mother's family line
this round of learning how to live with one, which i have aspired to having a cat for a long time, is really coming full circle though, he's teaching me as much as i am teaching him

Haha. One of them is follow counts. Reading discussions about them is pretty popcorn worthy on the NIPs repo.
How do you count how many people add your public key to a list when they don't put that list in a place you generally look at? That's a pretty good one. Nearly impossible, but people like to know.
It's like voodoo. I can stab things in a doll that looks like you across town, but how the heck would you know? That's impossible without magic involved, but at least a follow list exists somewhere that's publicly accessible.

astigmatism is asymmetric prismatic effect right? so your glasses are opposite prisms to reverse it - as in, it alters what looks like the horizon to be higher or lower?
i worked at a health center at one time and i remember many times hearing while in the optics lab where i was assigned to do cleaning glasses ready for the customer, about "prisms" and astigmatism, i think was the reason for it
i don't know, i think yes, because ultimately the optic center of the brain can recalibrate "horizon" which is a composite of visual and proprioception and ear canal sensing stuff
i don't know what the proper way to perform this training might be, but maybe part of it is putting a plano on either side of your eyes first, so get two relatively cheap training glasses for this, and wear them when doing activities where balance and perception of up/down/left/right are important... probably simple stuff like bouncing balls off walls and suchlike
my own vision problems that i only recently developed are further short range focus and double vision, caused by the kidney damage and some secondary thing involving my opto-motor-nerves
fixing this problem i have refused to take the shortcut and use magnifiers, firstly, and these do reduce the double vision poor convergence, but the real cause of it all is really the main thing
so, idk, my feeling is that your brain just hasn't properly adjusted to the mismatch between the eyes, the prismatic distortion and your ear/proprioception, so, yeah
that's my suggestion anyway
please do tell me if i have surmised something that alternative eye health people have been saying for a long time, i just never have had much to do with anyone closely who has issues with astigmatism, or vision probems especially
having had my own recently due to this kidney problem has changed everything though, i hope this gives you some breadcrumbs towards how to heal your vision at least to some extent
nerves have a lot to do with it, as does the brain... but optometrists have one hammer and they use it on everything

been making a bunch of revisions to https://protocol.realy.lol - my "reimagining" of the nostr protocol
still some ways to go before i'm finished revising the message format and i've realised that i need to eliminate message headers for requests with actual RESTful HTTP paths, because these headers on the requests are really redundant if they are tied to a specific "endpoint"
REST doesn't say anything about the use of push-enabling websockets, so it's not quite a REST protocol but for everything that fits that model it's REST
at some point in the day after i have done a bunch of tedious work these days and caring for my kitteh i feel the need to completely break from the routine so i'm going to play some more immersive game than the kingdom 2 crowns i play in between bouts of nostr and work on this stuff
i think i'm getting better at managing two separate streams with my work stuff (did a little bit on it today) and my pet project/#gitcitadel related work
lunch is coming up imminently also, and partly i am becoming aware of this because i'm feeling a bit antsy and my cat is now eating the last bit of beef chunks left in his bowl... i might put another piece on
#realy is pretty much at MVP grade for me now, late beta, and it needs a big code review and refactoring but nobody's paying me for that and it works and is giving me a direct personal benefit in combination with https://jumble.social #jumble for having better control over the social comms in my life
life is getting better
i'm sure it will continue to get better, also, because i'm listening to the feedback

Men; your wife tells you that you can do something, and you think she’s being inaccurate with what she’s saying.
Check your own guilt.
More than likely it’s your own fault that you feel that way because you know deep down that you could have been doing better in the past.
Set your wife up for success.
Put her first and you’ll start believing her more.

reading that wikipedia page indeed it must surely be related
the premise of the story was it was a government experiment to make rats sapient and what happened when there was too many of them
the reality was simply an experiment where they did all kinds of weird things to the living quarters and yes indeed they also put too many of them together and observed their behaviour
so, yeah, the books were clearly tied to the experiments

the school teacher who read one of these books in my year five primary school class also coincidentally gave away a bunch of books one time and one was a book about the paranormal that set me off on a whole thing that really has shaped so much of my subsequent life
she also read us Charlottes Web, which probably is actually also a covert narrative relating to some horrible government experiment

my paid gig involves building data based applications on shitcoin databases... i'm hoping that coincident with the epic rugging there will be a new recognition of how Nostr and similar styles of protocol are the new way to do decentralised databases and my boss will be on the trail of it and figure out that he's got a very valuable employee, raise my pay rate and give me more control over project requirements, maybe even let me hire someone
that would be great
but i'll just continue as though this isn't likely for now, this is just my hope and prediction

this might sound weird but i have had this understanding somehow, this intuition, since i was young, that i was aging slower because i was going to live a longer life, for since, idk, maybe age 9, i've believed that i would live to see Halleys Comet return which means i'm predicting i would live 140 years
there's lots of things i can say about what's behind all that and associated things, and every so often even more points in favor of this hypothesis appear
blessed by God, and protected by Angels, i say
slow aging is a sign of it, i'm sure of it
did you know that the existence of the man Lao Tzu is equally controversial as the existence of Jesus, by the way?
what's interesting is that Lao Tzu literally means something like "old baby" and i'm sure you are familiar with the ascension of Enoch and of course Jesus to the "eternal life"

ah yeah, i saw a lot of eye and ear mite treatment/wash solutions that were literally exactly that
peroxide is nearly as good, just a little more irritating
the bigger problem though is i'm pretty sure he basically has a head cold, so keeping him warm and cleaning his goop and keeping his bedding clean is the main thing that is working
the extra salt and the gum massaging probably helps also lower his overall dysbiosis loading and lets his immune system move to clearing out the hole betwene his eyes, ears and mouth
but yes, silver would be better than peroxide, he wouldn't complain so much about being treated with it
silver is my favourite metal... second highest conductivity, lowest toxicity to animals, highest reflectivity
people should stop wasting their time talking about it being money though, it's too useful to be a store of value alone

I have an aging babyface, which is sort of disconcerting.

I legit can't do it, anymore. I was all squinting, last time, and had to hold my glasses up in front of my face and peer through them to draw and it all ended up squiggly. Had to remove it all and redo it.
I'm too old for that crap. 🤣
Ma'am, do you have makeup for aging office workers with cokebottle glasses?

also i am gonna say that i find it a bit of a struggle to make myself do two things - the walks, and the portuguese lessons i do while on them
i find i need to have some days off from doing it but i think if i manage to do it 5 times a week that i will have a big benefit
so, yeah, the "i gotta get the work done" thing does stop you from doing the "walk you need to do" but actually your work quality declines more than the time you took out to do the walk
i'm sure you will find the same thing when you finally get to it
it's very pretty places to walk around here also, though some of the slopes are a bit hard, i know what kind of landscape you got around you there, mostly fairly flat, or gentle slopes, and lots of dark forests to see mushrooms or deer scampering off in the distance, or farmers doing farmery things, it's very pleasant, and the air is very clean, i'm sure

yeah, i think it's the light weight and the subtle lining of eyes and eyebrows that accentuates your eye shape and colour
always nice when you get good feedback, and double nice when it takes you actually less work!

i have come to the conclusion that my #catstr #mochi is suffering from, i think, throat in fection, or flu-like illness
feeding him chewy char grilled beef is definitely helping him clear up his gingevitis, his tongue is less exposed now after the last week of regular chewy things, he is actually eating less, in total, but wanting food less, at the same time, and basically quite sure that he doesn't want to go outside
well, i'm going to listen to what he is telling me, so i'm not making him go outside for a while
i'm going to clean and bleach his bedding, white towels tied down over the upside-down couch he adopted as his bed, because he drools on it and the yellow staining i see on his feet and especially back leg are the same color as the drool, and it reminds me of the dark yellow goop that comes along with a throat infection
so it's probably mainly a throat infection, but it was synergising with his gum infection (gingevitis)
i took that collar off him, since wearing it the color of the mucus leaking out of his eyes has got a lot darker, which i don't think is good, so probably it's just battering his immune system, so that went in the trash
the chewy beef food is definitely helping him heal, the amount of yellow staining his lower parts where it's coming from his sick mucus-laden mouth and throat is definitely now reducing
the other thing i've started doing is i load up a clean tissue with some 3% peroxide and give his eyes and ears a good wipe
the eye wiping really irritates him, i suppose the peroxide is a little irritating on contact but it definitely kills off the bacteria associated with the parasites... oh yes, so it's probably a sinus infection actually
he has definitely got ear mites, but now i think about it, the yellow goop, the dark yellow mucus from the eyes, and the stain, all are consistent with an infection inside his sinus cavity
it may be that this is making him more vulnerable to the ear mites, but in any case, it is definitely a good thing to give his ears a little wipe and some peroxide to cut back the strain of the secondary infections caused by the mites eating his ears
i have also been taking pieces of the char grilled beef up to feed his little cousin the new wave lady who haunts the supermarket
she loves those chunks, and behaves exactly the same way as mochi with them, sits there for 20 minutes just to eat two pieces that in total weigh about 50g
she has some of the same issues, the gingevitis and possibly the ear mites but she hasn't got the sinus infection, she is pretty clean white all the way down
but i bet if i just drop her some beef every other day and she eats something chewy that massages her gums up well and gives her some good fats and nutrients and salt that she will also start to look even more healthy and maybe get a bit more friendly
female cats with gingevitis are extremely cranky, i used to have this cute medium hair black fluffy years ago in australia and she was mostly ok while i was caring for her because i was feeding her proper food - kangaroo mince with beef liver, mostly, but when i left her there with my mother, probably my mother switched her over to lazy sterilised and grain filled foods and of course this led to her developing gingevitis and made her very cranky
mum sent her to the vet and she had an infected tooth extracted and came back so much more cuddly and friendly, to the point where she found it interfered with her hobby of knitting and spinning, with her demanding to occupy the lap where she needed space to do her textile things
anyway, point being that female medium hair fluffy cat with a hostile attitude towards people is often a sign of gingevitis, and the often protruding tongue is 100% certainty
so it will be nice to see how she responds over time
if it's effective and the folk at the shop and bar business there engage me about this because everyone sees me feeding her, they will inevitably, i will say "if you give her some scraps from steaks and stuff that is chewy it will keep her gums healthy" and perhaps this will greatly enhance her quality of life and make her even more of an icon of this little establishment
anyhow, it's so nice seeing a sick animal heal and get better and happier and become more pleasing to the people around
i wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people who "hate cats" just have been exposed to cats with sickness caused by this sterile/dry food garbage and probably more than a few cases of the cat being terrorised by some mean person, i mean psychopath, like whoever taugh Mochi to be afraid of rolled up umbrellas
i will agree, for my part, that many of the dogs that i have hated over the years have been neglected, no walks, bad food, chronic, untreated parasite infestations, lack of an actual guardian, no training
i think you can learn a lot about the health of a society by how the people's animals health and behaviour is
southern europe there is a lot of strays, both west and east, and the society has a grinding poverty underclass, as well, and very often those who keep those animals alive and sometimes get them medical help, are often the poor people
