Those things require such little maintenance

Hello 👋 I'm from a tiny test instance.

Can you help yeet me across the fediverse?

it is lovely to see vibe coded alternatives to photoshop and the like. One thing folks aren't considering is the stranglehold these companies have are on other companies.

help fedi,

is there anyne who could tell me how to make a plush mister #mobilek real?

I really just need to rebuild my gaming machine. Not really because arch so much as it being a 5 year old install.

I will also admit that I have been a bit spoiled by debian and the steam deck. Easily the two least fussy linux boxes I have.

sometimes you just have to get baked eat ice cream and watch southpark like a teenager.

You know what I'm still gonna love debian even if a bunch of dipshits made bad governance choices for LLM use

After teaching at undergrad level for 15 years and earning a doctorate, I really only learned one valuable thing that was broadly applicable.

Shame never taught anyone anything. It just alienates them.

my daily self reminder to note how I am feeling and why.

I feel pretty even really. Got some bad sleep last night. Did all the chores, exercise, got work done, did a tiny amount of for fun computing, ate normally.

Not sure what to make of this but I sure would love to feel this even more often than not.

SAN DIMAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!!
