There's a sentence in Cantonese "我認第二冇人敢認第一", which means "if I declare second, no one will declare first".

I wasn't super sure if they meant that because Simplified Chinese is not likely to be Cantonese but Mandarin.

It's just "second to none" but written more verbosely

Both signs have simplified characters. It is probably not TW

Wutip (蝴蝶) formed very close to Hong Kong, within 800km away. She isn't even classified as a "tropical cyclone" because she was not strong enough. She spent most of her lifetime as a "tropical depression".

The Chinese name literally means "butterfly", so that's why she has butterfly wings.

I call this "Typhoon Posting". Basically, I draw tropical cyclones as humans. This is the 1st typhoon this year, and my 3rd typhoon total.

I happened to be writing a program that interacts with the PeerTube livechat plugin on peertube.wtf. It was fine until suddenly a reload returned 404 from the chat room. I checked on the PeerTube instance and surely enough, the live chat was gone from my stream. The chatroom settings was also gone from the side bar.

Is this a temporary issue or an intended action?

By keeping them out of my home.

I live in Hong Kong, very warm and wet. We simply have mosquito nets on every window. Alternatively you can try to live higher.

But even without those, I don't really see much people having this problem. Perhaps it's sampling bias.

Hong Kong!... China, depending on your political view

This year I participated in making Zong's (粽, sticky rice inside bamboo leaves) and it was quite fun. So here's Summatia holding one she made.

I do gameplay (mostly Splatoon), animations, modding and technical explanation of games. I upload weekly because I have too much time.

Decided to actually put in effort and tried to dotfile with Hyprland and Waybar. It turned out pretty well!

If you think the wallpaper looks disconnected, that's because I actually have a diagonal monitor setup.
