I pop in every month or so. I’ll see ya around!

I think it’s like the old trope of asking a fish how the water is and they reply “what’s water?”

More like Slim Weeny

Mysticpickle drops bombshell on journalists. Entire industry collapses!

Her friends don’t appreciate semantic drift. She’s innovating the language.

I think I got “cunT” once and gave myself a heart attack because I thought I had accidentally committed a frustrated debugging log message to a work repo. I found it while searching for swears but it was in a file I hadn’t changed

I tried it out because of the memes and stuck with it because there wasn’t a bunch of extra stuff I don’t need distracting me. I kinda forget I’m using arch btw

My boy Faramir taught me to not hate the soldier on the ground

This is true but coal mining is just as bad and requires orders of magnitude (mineral fuels) more excavation than all of the other minerals combined. If we can stop mining coal by using renewables the total amount of mining will be a fraction of what it currently is. Plus many of the other minerals can be reused where coal just ends up as carbon in the atmosphere.

It can mean cringe but it’s more similar to the word strange and can be good or bad depending on context. Someone who learns Elvish and wears clothes from the 1920s could be considered weird but interesting. Republicans are the kind of weird that makes you feel uncomfortable around them. “Why are they so concerned about what my children are wearing?” Kind of weird

I’m not the person you replied to but their experience sounds like mine. I agree 100% with that. I really enjoy making my own tools and figuring out things for myself but what I find interesting and useful is rarely what other people care about.

I’ll lose myself for hours making and axe handle with hand tools or cobbling together my own Linux desktop for the hell of it but creating yet another form to validate on a web app I have no need for is like pulling teeth.

I wish I could be someone’s garden hermit and just grow flax and contribute to open source projects

That serenity is why I enjoy running Arch with basically nothing on it. My OS doesn’t do shit and I love it

I didn’t know about this. Thank you for the knowledge fellow human!

Looks like wildfire season has started

I wanted to share the article with friends and copy a part of the text I wanted to draw attention to but the asshole site has selection disabled. Now I will not do that and timesnownews can go fuck themselves

I’m on a similar journey and have started self-hosting as many services as I can. I’ve got Jellyfin (open source Plex alternative), a WebDAV server to replace google drive, a Valheim server, and a git server to host the code. I’m doing this with kubernetes on an old mini PC I picked up for 50 bucks on eBay. I plan to put more mini PCs in my friends’ and family’s homes to build a cloud for us with backups of everything stored in multiple locations. It’d be cool to pass it down to the next generation and have our family memories preserved in a medium we own completely.

Armor and clothing in movies and shows with historical settings. I really appreciate when they get the details right and it can be really jarring when it’s bad. The Northman is a good example of what vikings probably dressed like, which is basically the same as how all medieval people dressed. Simple wool and linen tunics and big cloaks fastened with broaches. No fur capes or leather armbands or cornrows, looking at you Vikings on the “history” channel.

Especially when they censor the letters with shapes that resemble the letters. A vertical line covering an i is like blurring just the middle finger when someone flips the bird

Microcline is my favorite in game and I was glad to find out it looks cool IRL
