  7. To #force #external #might into #internal #right is a fundamental #crime against the #nature of #free #ebb and #flow of any #purpose brought into #being for any #reason at all.

    This is what #will #create a #rift between any #concept where a #bridge can directly #form through.

    The best #alternative here is to #align the thing you want, with the purpose of anyone who embraces it.

  13. I'm an #engineer, not an #artist. But every so often, I need to use graphics-related tools for something I'm working on. Today's example was trying to lay out some control panel #graphics, and I was using #Inkscape on #Debian.

    What I did: created a circular object

    What I wanted to do: when I select that object and type values into the #coordinates boxes, the circular object moves so that its *center* is at the specified coordinates.

    What Inkscape actually does: moves the object so the top-left corner of the object's bounding box is at those coordinates.

    Really not helpful when you want to #align multiple objects to the same #center.

    Do some searching, find #forum posts of others asking how to do this exact thing. Answers range from "select the object and open the #XML editor..." to "do this specific thing which doesn't appear to have existed in the UI for a decade", to people suggesting workarounds (you need a #workaround for what must be an *extremely* common workflow?).

    One workaround: "just create a #guide, move (or maybe it was 'align') the object's something-or-other to the guide". The word "guide" does not occur in the UI, FAQ or in the basic documentation for Inkscape. Searching for it is troublesome because of all the web pages that have "guide" in their *title* rather than their content.

    Lots of other discussions with links to pages on the Inkscape site which are now 404.

    Where's that "FFFFUUUUUUUU..." meme when I need it?

  18. The vessel with the mirrored sides and photovoltaic sails negotiated the solar winds with ease. The captain was experienced, had weathered storms across the electromagnetic spectrum, gravitational ones to boot. "#Align the instruments and begin the deep chant, crew! In two Earth days we'll be gliding into port above# Mercury."

    Everyone joined in the deep chant except Molly, who hummed "In the arms of the solar flare," a popular Mercurian folksong.

  19. Crow With No Name Part 8

    #Wss366 Aline/Align #MastoPrompt Gloat

    As the chanting ceased, the pentagram flared, and the strange, almost violet light surged. Rising first to her hands and then sweeping out toward me, the light coated my body and hers.

    I screeched as an almost electrical energy pulsed along every nerve.

    “Holy… The swear word I wanted to use refused to come out of my mouth, so finished with “Moly!”

    Then the light and energy subsided leaving behind a residue of that unheard melody that had drawn me here, emanating from the woman. Its calm notes assured me she was safe, and I flew to her shoulder.

    “I see our auras #align,” she said. “I can’t believe this actually worked!”

    “You're a knob witch, aren’t you?” I said. “Ack, ack, ack.” I shouldn’t #gloat, but I’m funny.

    She shook her shoulder until I stopped laughing and then said, “Well, this is the first magicy magic I have done. I mostly do divinations, charms, and potions, but I’m good at those.”

    Then, maturely, she continued, “We seem to have gotten off on the wrong foot. Shall we start again?”

    Very cliché, I thought, but decided I didn’t want to get shaken again.

    “I’m Sumika and am a novice witch. What is your name?”

    I thought and thought and finally answered, “I can’t remember.”

  20. @ChrSt oh its just something i call myself because i love to yap about it

    typst is a typesetting language like LaTeX but more modern and is basically a weird programming language

    typesetting/rich text writing is closer to markdown/asciidoc than latex, but you can do really powerful things with the programming language part of it

    this is an example from their github:

    #set page(width: 10cm, height: auto)
    #set heading(numbering: "1.")

    = Fibonacci sequence
    The Fibonacci sequence is defined through the
    recurrence relation $F_n = F_(n-1) + F_(n-2)$.
    It can also be expressed in _closed form:_

    $ F_n = round(1 / sqrt(5) phi.alt^n), quad
    phi.alt = (1 + sqrt(5)) / 2 $

    #let count = 8
    #let nums = range(1, count + 1)
    #let fib(n) = (
    if n <= 2 { 1 }
    else { fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2) }
    )

    The first #count numbers of the sequence are:

    #align(center, table(
    columns: count,
    ..nums.map(n => $F_#n$),
    ..nums.map(n => str(fib(n))),
    ))
