I need to figure out how to handle pty state.

https://codeberg.org/TranquillityCodes/Oxidize0 Will anyone actually use this (once it works) ?

Boosts please :neobot_bottom:

Can someone explain to me what -100 kPa / -29 mmHg mean?

It's measurement at a vacuum pump.

Boosts please :neobot_bottom:

Additional guess is my drug use, but I have no data correlating the two; I was using drugs like over half a year before this

Ever since a few months ago, I lost the ability to type properly on phone, to the point that I make 1-8 typos in 90% of words; will this ever get better?

I also have a new desktop keyboard, there I make a typo every about 30 words, but that's presumably because of the new keyboard (I always have that), this will hopefully get better.

Important note, I have not changed my phone keyboard for over a year.

I got brain damage 6 months ago, but that mostly healed within a month; this started several months later.

I have no real way to see a doctor, esp. for this. I might be able to write a custom keyboard that uses some ML tricks + dictionary + autocorrect to get my typing speed to what it used to be, but... Am a bit scared about my brain. I should look for fine motor function tests.

Nvm, it wasn't kitty
It was run0
run0 is, honestly, garbage that breaks everything.

Why is the currently selected element for make nconfig not visible in kitty but is visible in foot?

Boost please :neobot_bottom:

I just want an oximeter that

• can be bought
• doesn't require you to sell you your soul
• is precise enough (~1% at 90%-100%)
• measures often enough that the patient doesn't die in the middle of one of its stupid breaks: 0.1Hz (every 10 seconds), max (1/30)Hz (every 30 seconds)
• has decent rechargeable battery charged off of USB-C, and is easy to replace with a bit of soldering
• connects over bluetooth to a FOSS app (if no acc is required, I can RE a prop one)
• require auth to get data
• is affordable (<100€)
• (optional) can pair with something over Wi-Fi

Trying to find info about the M700/M800 medical oximeter protocol, coming out empty-handed.

Boosts please

I can't tell apart romantic and platonic
I just have care, trust, lust, obsession, and possessiveness. These 5, that I can feel for multiple entities at a time, in amounts varying over time both per entity and in general, and that's just me, other headmates have it different
I'm tired of trying to fit myself into incomprehensible standards of what's platonic vs what's reserved for those "dating" only. The times I had crushes were only ever based on the 5 base feelings, and thus, evolved accordingly.
I wanna say "I love you" to anyone I care about a lot, I wanna fuck anyone I find hot, and I am not gonna get into the latter two since they basically boil down to BPD things
Fucking someone and caring about them a lot can trigger the latter two, and the latter two tend to trigger the former two. Labels like "dating" can feed possessiveness which makes me feel good, but feeding it too far gets me into a BPD loop that's hard to get out of. Feeding it too little and my brain can start erasing memories or feelings from memories and make me care less and less.
I often live day-to-day, and easily make life-changing decisions, like going yo live with someone I met and mutually started obsessing over within 2 weeks, granted it is logistically possible and I'm not hurting someone I care about too much. All 5 are intertwined in complex ways, and it makes relationships difficult and often intense and unstable.
I don't know myself if this model is accurate, because I don't even know myself, I barely know my own personality, all I know are memories of experiments and often out of date with my current everchanging mess of personality traits I copied from those I like or liked.
Barely anyone that gets close to me stays, most ghost me, for varying reasons. This pisses me off to no end, because it hurts a fuckton. Either just talk to me about what's wrong or at least say a goodbye or something, or DON'T EVEN GET CLOSE TO ME IN THE FIRST PLACE
I'm transparent as fuck about myself, just LEAVE (and say why) or at least WARN ME you might. Of COURSE I will be hurt. But way less than if we get even closer, and then I get randomly ghosted for the 31st time (this ain't hyperbole - number is around 25 to 30 counting only partners - counting also ftiends, 40-50. Just since 2023). What, are you gonna trolley problem this one? I'd much rather lose a friend I somewhat trust than have that friend become a partner and lose them then, with zero indication whatsoever.
This is why I never believe anyone who says they are never gonna leave. Yk why? Because 98% of those that left said that.
PLEASE just talk to me about what you are feeling from me, don't be scared of "hurting my feelings" then joining the 30+ statistic when it bubbles over. Bonus points for never returning because "what if she hates me" (spoiler: I might now, but if you apologize then return, I probably won't. If we got along once, we probably will again. But gotta work on any trust that existed. But I'm probably just gonna be happy someone I liked is back.
I can't think of ever turning away someone that ghosted me, and it's pretty much THE worst way someone can hurt me. One entity did particular amounts of damage, to the point I had recurring CPTSD flashbacks I got into drugs just to make them stop. She's a friend now, which made the flashbacks stop. We made her giving me CPTSD flashbacks into a joke, and I jokingly call her xanax fuel.
What does that teach you? There's basically nothing I won't forgive. I like being on good terms with entities, esp. entities I got along with really well in the past. I usually don't forget what happened, but I forgive, and don't hold it over your head. At my core, I'm a creature of empathy, so I can more often than not understand and empathize.
Idk how far you have to push me before I can't forgive.
I just want love and care. I don't want to be hurt anymore. The past is irrelevant to that, and only serves to inform the present and future, but is only a minor source of information - entities change, and often a lot, in short time. Esp. those of us with BPD.

Okay, so, I need a job ASAP (as in, might be homeless in about 6-7 weeks otherwise)
I currently live in Germany/Berlin (moved about half a year ago, so my German is still bad), but I need a job I can do remote-only since I have to travel often. Half-time preferable as I'm unsure how many hours per day I can actually work at the moment given my health and disabilities, but I should be able to switch to full-time at some point.
My primary area of expertise is Linux (mainly systems programming, incl. kernel dev, mostly around the graphics stack), but I'll gladly pick up anything. I can learn a new programming language and jump into any codebase quite quickly, no matter what said codebase is (I've worked on anything from web browsers to Java HotSpot). I have trouble figuring out how to write a CV, and the only professional experience I have is a year of Java Backend development, for one decently big software company, so I'm not expecting much, but I figured I'll start asking on fedi anyway.

Please boost. Actionable advice on how I can improve my chances of getting a job in the time limit I have is also welcome 🩷

Most Rust programmers can have a pacifier put into their mouth so they stop talking about Rust

I have another acc btw: @tranquillity

Boosts really, really welcome :neocat_floof_pleading:

I desperately need money. I'm homeless in Germany with a very low income, so I have issues reliably getting food and a roof above my head.

I would feel bad just asking for donations because there's lots of entities in way worse situations with zero income, so instead I want to do work (one-off contract is fine, doesn't have to be an employment contract. Has to be remote tho. Note I do not speak German, only English and Czech.)

Any money helps, I would need about a 900€ a month extra to be able to comfortably eat and have a roof above my head. I am most struggling this February, March, and some of April, maybe May, after that I should be able to get some money. I'll gladly do several one-time contracts.

I live with my girlfriend, who has no income, so my income is housing and feeding both of us.

I do have EU citizenship, but not a German one. I do have residence in the EU, I just cannot reside there for health reasons, but any post for eg. sent to it can be forwarded to me.

There's a decent amount of stuff I have not listed, since I've been writing this for about an hour and I keep remembering more and more things. I've done a large amount of things, and I'm currently in the middle of migrating my temporary infrastructure to run on microvms connected over wireguard to a VPS managed by either Docker or Nix along with setting up SSO, monitoring, log gathering, and other improvements, so the current state of the infra is temporary, however source code some of my projects (not all, only some recent ones) are here: https://gitea.itycodes.org/itycodes/
