Since I installed monodevelop for a work project I was working on a few months back I have been stuck with this situation in which all text documents would start monodevelop as the default app when I clicked on them.

Each time it would happen, I figured I should look into how I set the default app for the various mime types and then I would put it off. Today I had a spare 5 minutes so I just grepped for monodevelop in my home directory figuring the settings had to be there as they weren't for every other user account. Turns out the settings are in ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

Each mime type is mapped to a .desktop file that describes what to do when the file is opened.

I switched text/plain=monodevelop.desktop to text/plain=gedit.desktop and I was good to go.

At least I hope so. Its finally up for sale and the realtor seems to think it will go quick. I am ready to close that part of my life. The lawn got so long that snakes started growing in it. There were two of them. I thought the first one was tiny but then (e:terry) found the tiniest baby one.

Its so crazy because for years the grass would never grow because it was mowed too much and became a muddy weedy mess. Now its thick and when it was cut it actually looked good.

As (e:terry,56828) mentioned we hit up the outer harbor yesterday during the brief beautiful weather period. I had never been out to the lighthouse before. Reading all of the historical pkacard s was interesting. Seems like the area had a very crazy past as the water tore through just about everything they built to protect the city from water.

It was cool to see Dug's dive is now open year round.

My beard is getting out of control again.

I guess its legal in NYS. I was looking for marriage laws here and found this page

Its so weird that getting married requires a $40 license which is only good for days.
