If someone finds your blog in the Ark of the Covenant, I hope they at least get to read the bearded dragon noir before their face melts.

...Uh oh. I miscalculated. How am I supposed to receive validation if anybody who reads my work is struck down by the fury of god?

Au contraire! It's the rare webmaster who has their work protected by the fury of god. It's an honor! ...Bad for readership, though.

Better add a disclaimer just to be safe.

We are now business rivals and I must either destroy you or be destroyed by you. There is no other way.

Or if you want to acquire Skep's Place in a billion-dollar merger I could be okay with that too

Nothing to see here, just fixing an image extension I forgot this morning, move on, go check out Unicursal Maze Research or something

Eh, deal.

Today at Skep's Place, we learn the value of .jpg compression and come to understand that maybe you don't need to save images as .png 100% of the time regardless of circumstance.

Is 15 MB too much image on one page? Should I think about compressing those?

15MB is larger than my entire site

My entire site is less than 2 MB (and I'm looking into ways to get more compression).

Really it's not too big, but it might create a loading issue for some people. You can try opening it in MS paint and resaving as the same file type without any editing, sometimes that cuts down on space for whatever reason. Saving as PNG is pretty good about preserving quality and cutting down on size too.

As someone who does his game updates every quarter instead of every month, I have definitely gotten in the habit of jotting my thoughts down as I go instead of waiting until the end. You know. Mostly.

That’s top tier box labeling, the word “surprise” adds a lot.

The way we eventually get rid of these things is to just leave the box somewhere for somebody else to find. Keep the tradition alive.

I recently unpacked my Surprise Skull (not real), a skull (fake) ornament I found in a student house and adopted years ago. My partner hates it.

That is one of the sacrifices you have to make when you choose to cohabitate with somebody, is that you also have to accept their decor.

What do y'all want this weekend, you want some Three Kingdoms or do you want something I haven't started writing yet and don't know what it is?

@a-notes I appreciate the suggestion but based on past patterns I only write about armed conflict if it's been over for 2000 years and they turn it into a book.
