what has become of Xcode? It was not the most stable but it never just quit when I added a NavItem to a toolbar in the storyboard editor. Now it just randomly crashes. Incredible!

I don't know why video recording with my USB webcam fails, when it works fine for Zoom. (Ubuntu, Dell laptop. Gets a second in and freezes.)
I don't care that much, because my phone works fine, and I can still use the 'puter for sound...but...I do want everything to work right. I used to record with my old Win7 laptop's webcam, framerate was the only issue.

mastodon has not one single emoji of a she dog, more commonly known as a bitch. That seems discrimination.

Ugh, I'm on a liquid diet until tomorrow night on doctor's orders, and while I appreciate that I have enough liquid food and am not starving, it is not very filling and I find myself jealous in the extreme of my family's 'real' food. Being hungry sucks, who knew?

I am very much looking forward to chewing stuff tomorrow evening and empathising much more deeply with other people who are also going hungry right now. It's not at all the same as long term hunger, I know, but even just this taste (pun not intended) is a good reminder of how hard it is to function when food is limited.

Also I took Dad to the hospital last night (he's doing better today) and didn't get home until after midnight. So I'm sleep deprived too. No wonder I'm cranky. Going to have a herbal tea to feel less hungry and head to bed, sigh
