The thought of mega corps polluting the night sky with satellites makes me so bummed.

It’s insane that disposables with lithium ion batteries are legal.

Set up a blanket fort

I hope RSS feeds never die. Antennapod forever.

I just realized the other day that I haven’t typed !g in months.

If all you want to do is game, why not get a Steam Deck?

If you like Doom Metal you have to listen to Witch Mountain.

Same. I’ve had a few big config purges and migrations every few years, but I’m always neovim.

I started using Neovide as a frontend so people could follow what I’m doing (it adds animated cursor movement, etc.) I actually found that I really like it and rarely use a terminal to run neovim now.

One of the goals of neovim was to introduce tools to build a GUI around vim. Imo the terminal is by far the best option, but there are some fun options. Neovide is an interesting one. Mostly because it doesn’t do too much – just eye candy.

I have a fond memories of the game for sure! The world was really cool to explore and I did keep coming back to it. I think I got to the point where the combat became really easy – I recall finding a way to almost cheese it.

Sort of a dumb reason, but imo, flying a spaceship is not really what the game is about and that’s all I wanted to do. For example, I wanted something where I had to use orbital mechanics to dock with a station, but the powerful SciFi boosters in Elite Dangerous take all that fun away.

GTA for the Gameboy on the other hand, kinda rad.

I was really disappointed with this one. I tried it out per a friend’s recommendation after they heard I was playing a freeware space flight simulator (Orbiter, which I do actually recommend).

Kingdom come deliverance. It was a rollercoaster. One of the first games I played after building a new computer. I progressed far enough and finally found that the combat was jank and the story was pretty garbage. Still have fond memories of the game though. Almost like the first time playing Oblivion 🙂.

Lol everyone should go read the couple of posts on the community / magazine with the same name. Hilarious seeing people so triggered by people pointing out that the name is a bit problematic.

What’s the advantage of running this server side?

I’ve been trying out an IaC services’ (Pulumi) chatbot to answer questions about how to spin up architecture. It’s really bad. Totally makes up properties that don’t exist and at times spins up code that doesn’t even make sense syntactically. Not to mention that the code it generates has the potential to cost not insignificant amounts of money.

Definitely not a replacement for stack overflow, github, forums, or random blog posts. Not for a service that spins up critical infrastructure. Like, you have to know to some degree how that stuff works. And if you know how that stuff works, what’s the point of the service? Saving a few minutes typing stuff out and looking at documentation?

Oh I feel silly now. I guess I’ll go back to drinking from the tap.

No boiling, but I bought a filter after listening to a story about PFAS.

On Android (maybe iOS)? You can hold down on the space key and drag left and right to move the text cursor. Very useful.
