I’m beginning to go greybeard mode

I'm tired of relying on other peoples soft. I just wanna roll my own and be done with it. Fix bugs as they become important. Otherwise don't touch it. I've got a retro machine here next to my desk, it's hooked up but I haven't used it in a bit. I think I'm gonna drop...

I have about 14 days to configure my laptop to be the idea coding machine for myself. As it stands, It currently is running Arch linux with MATE. I've got both "Code - OSS" on it and neovim/nvchad. I'd really like to build my own *nix distro following the suckless philosophy. If I was only...

I went to the mall on Saturday

Content Warning: I use the t-slur towards the end of this post. It's to make a point, I hate the word and actually feel disgusting using it. I'm sorry for anyone who is triggered by it. It was supposed to be game night. My friends ended up taking a billion years at a two headed...

I ate the bad brand of lettuce

cw: talk of foodborne illness (and the symptoms 💩) It was a few weeks ago. I was making a baked rigatoni dish for dinner and wanted something to break up the meal a bit. I added a simple bagged garden salad. It was pre-prepared. Pre-washed. I thought everything would be ok. I've had the shits...

Yesterday was a really good day :)

I went to my local LGS to play some commander with a classmate. I enjoyed myself. I did overestimate his level of newness to the game, so I'm glad he brought a more skilled friend so I didn't embarrass myself by completely wiping the floor with him. I remember back in 2015 when I was...

I keep getting traffic from the same server. It's a Hetzner Online server (supposedly) which has geodata linking it to the UAE. I've blocked the traffic, but I'm getting hella suspicious. Anyway I've been live monitoring all my traffic and I'm blocking anything that I think is even the tiniest bit sus.I'm not really thrilled...

It’s my birthday in a couple days

It's weird coming up on the 250'th for the nation and realizing you're going to outlive it. Not that I want to, just that with technofeudaleveragist pseudarchy quickly replacing our capitalism flavored democratic republic I don't see the powers that be being the same people for very long. I think the billionaires won. I think...

I had one client scheduled, and another who is spending the night at the facility for early obligations in the morning. Scheduled client decided to go home, which would normally result in me going home, but since I still have the sleepover client and can't legally leave them unsupervised. As a result, I'm stuck here...

Ad serving companies should pay part of my cell phone bill. I have AdBlock VPN on my phone and it has blocked over 1.3 GB in less than 24 hours. My cell plan is only "premium speeds" for 40 GB before getting throttled. Utter bullshit.

You've reached the end.
