Last Notes npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc #thinkpad nerds and #lazyweb: i am out of the loop on thinkpad generations but i am smitted with the P14s that work has me using (and the x1 carbon that a job years ago issued me). i am also pleased with this fancy new trackpoint ii keyboard. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I really enjoy my #gamesir x2 pro but it's a little cramped if I'm playing anything more than older games. The new g8+ looks nice because it has the wings and Bluetooth means it won't stress my usb-c port. It lacks clicky buttons but the #easysmx m15 is cheaper and has the same wings. I also saw one of those dedicated android gaming handhelds that had a silicone wing grips for it but it's more costly. Plus stock #android. So many choices. Wish I could just try some out first. #gaming npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I never thought the day would come but I just don't care for #pc #gaming any longer. I've fully moved on to #console and #mobile games, even for emulators. I get so tired of futzing about with options on my desktop and to have some games just generally not work. Plus my hardware isn't necessarily compatible, etc. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I wear my glasses on a lanyard because I lose them frequently. I was just searching for my glasses (that are around my neck). I am too brilliant for this world. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I have noticed that some youtubers will slowly zoom into themselves at times. I thought I was having a bout of vertigo on several occasions before I realized what was happening. For whatever reason, that super slow camera zoom makes me feel like I'm falling forward. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1qnq…9whd greetz and cheers ☕ npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1vjf…nh2f I'm on grapheneos and both osmand and organicmaps are fully functional so I guess whatever is on board my pixel 7 pro. I have a GPS receiver and a tablet but that might be extra effort npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1wxe…ymq9 love it. BTW, load up your bicycle and come sail these trails with me sometime. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc The trails I got lost on yesterday don't appear to be in #openstreetmap yet. I should figure out how to add data there because I'm sure I'll be out there some more. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1jv8…9xp4 curious npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1jv8…9xp4 it could also be that your crank arms aren't tightened enough. perhaps the sound isn't actually coming from the bb. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1jv8…9xp4 i used to do a ton of mountain biking in the early 2000s and it's definitely improved a lot. the avenger is solid steel, though. i wanted some heft. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc There's two football games on, two videos I wanna watch, and a video game I wanna play. I've basically only got an hour and a half before I need to be horizontal. I guess this is a good problem but now I've got decision paralysis. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub16hc…2kwd I'd like to know the same. Didn't realize anything was happening. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1upx…k4m5 full send! npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I will never not love ripping around on a #bmx bike. I am exhausted but elated. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I'm fast as fuck, boi npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc These #cats... dammit. #coffee npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub190r…k7nv as an aside, #newpipe will work with peertube as well as a handful of other things but i was hoping for one on the desktop npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc anyone aware of a desktop #peertube client? something like #freetube would be really nice. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1kfe…9c60 facts npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc i also had plans to clean and stuff today, the usual sunday chores. however the #cats have been taking turns sitting in my lap, ensuring that i am unlikely to move for a while. just gonna stare at youtube, drink #coffee, and have some panque con pasas i guess. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc It would be really fun to play Fury3 again. I still have my disc somewhere. My dad and I used to play this together as much as we did Tetris. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Saying goodbye to a dear friend today. Mobile vet is on their way. This is the last pic of Brak I got while he was still able to move around yesterday. Still stately and handsome despite his age and condition. Rest well, old man. You were a stellar companion. I'll miss you so much and I love you tons. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1syq…u4r9 the moral panic wasn't super high with this one but it wasn't absent all together. I remember a lot of the freakout here in the states over it, though npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc The original #PS1 Gran Turismo from 1997 still holds up pretty well today after adjusting the controls a bit. What a breakthrough this #game was. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1xxn…qa8v this is one place that I've found the AI junior programmer in my IDE to be useful. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Jumping back and forth between #ruby and #python today was a brain bender. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc It's really cool seeing so many #openaccess articles on the @npub1px0…44n2 digital library these days. I'm proud to be a member. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1g6j…puw4 this is the same curse here in trailerparkansas. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Once more a cat has stepped on the reset switch for my desktop. I need to get a cover for that. I have the power switch configured in software to prompt me but no such capability for the reset switch. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub17hj…nz8w I'm pretty sure it's just an export and then an import. I did that once before but it's been ages. I don't recall any issues. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1g6j…puw4 I wonder if there's some way to make a swamp cooler work or to adjust air pressure somehow to create a breeze npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Another thing I've noticed is that after a couple of decades of primarily #gaming on a #pc, I have switched to #console gaming entirely. It's even to the point where playing a #fps game with a keyboard and mouse feels uncomfortable and foreign. Such a weird turn of events considering in my early 20s I played a couple of games competitively. I'm not sure when that switch flipped for me. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc It's a "eatin' parboiled rice out of a retort pouch" kinda evening. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I'm sure I've fussed about this a dozen times but the move to #discord for a lot of communities is really annoying. An additional client to run, stream of consciousness real time chat with poor search features, and a slapdash forum implementation that is not indexed by search engines (nor are the communities). I feel like we'll lose a lot of collective knowledge out of this. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc i'm still considering #bluefin for my work laptop but that'll have to happen when i'm at a good stopping point with projects. i sort of wonder if things like #distrobox will let me install the mdm software work uses that happens to be allegedly #ubuntu only. i suppose i could use alien but distrobox-export seems like the way to go. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc #bazzite continues to be pretty good and #btrfs reminds me a lot of #lvm. definitely feels like future computing. things are generally stable and usable. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1e49…5q0w I am a spring chicken thankyouverymuch npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc I am grateful to have the vehicle though. I'd like something older with less computers but this is nice to have if I need to haul something or if the weather is really bad npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Sometimes I really dislike cars. I like to look at fancy ones and pretty once but overall they're not my thing. I like my bicycle, scooter, and tiny dual sport better. Sure they come with their own dangers and discomforts but they're simple and inexpensive to keep running and fun to ride. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Speaking of, I'm probably gonna start doing my own maintenance on the van. An oil change was $85. I understand trading money for time but that seems like something that wouldn't take me too long considering I already do it on other vehicles. Might as well learn how to do brakes, too. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Just learned that my van has a locked lug nut on each wheel requiring a key to remove it. This is said to be to keep people from stealing the wheels. I suspect it's more likely that it's for the disservice center to make more money but perhaps I'm jaded. Thankfully they offered to remove them for me. No clue how much that'll cost. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1ha6…w225 i'm not sure i'm ready to jump off the #firefox train but i've heard vivaldi mentioned. how do they make their money? does #google back them as well like they do #mozilla? npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc the #blizzard account linking/login process is infuriating. you have to solve 10 dice math problems in a row to link things. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc What an insane day... I am just exhausted. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1fuh…3kut unfortunate name.. their parents must be so embarrassed. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1gvu…wfm7 knee high socks... 💀 npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1kmf…4rwv ah ok, thanks npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1wxe…ymq9 I aggressively mute and block npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1kmf…4rwv what's text speak? npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Good #tzag, #fediverse. Up a little late but I'm already in the mix. Taking calls with #coffee and #cats. Off work at my main job but I've got dome freelance stuff to do. I'm about to be behind some racks in a super rad industrial spot. Might ride the #xr150 out there. Not sure what I'll do with the rest of my day yet other than workout and go to #bjj tonight. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1xyc…cn9f thanks! I was familiar with sepia but I didn't know if there was some kind of index between the two platforms. I'll be doing a lot of typing I guess 😁 npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Anyone know if there's some kind of #youtube to #peertube search for people that post on both? I'd like to spend less time on YouTube proper. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1t3u…k9rs helltides is really fun if you have a seasonal non-campaign character npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Just about got my #bazzite install done. The last bits are to get my #nfs mounts connected, configure #syncthing, and then set up my dev env. I'm going to have to rebuild my syncthing conf from scratch, I think. I've never had a good way to move all my files/settings between distros. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub15gs…9ep4 💕 npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Not sure how I'm supposed to be efficient at work when the critters all take turns climbing on me. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1vv7…eqce how does it compare to python crash course from no starch press? Is it a deeper dive type book? I'm currently working in a python shop and I'm python literate but could definitely use some brushing up. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Belated #tzag, #fediverse. #coffee is but a memory. Currently evaluating k/v stores and trying to stuff files where they don't belong. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1vus…n5u2 🤞 npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1rrw…hju7 ah dang, yet another fork... I'll look into this one, too. Thanks a ton! npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1vus…n5u2 curious. This is my first experience with it. It seems to be functional for the moment. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc So far only a couple bugs in #fedora. Trying to close #protonvpn causes #gnome to shit itself and send me back to the login screen. Also dark mode isn't consistent everywhere. I'll keep messing with things. It ran so well on my work laptop, I had high hopes for my personal desktop. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc #btrfs is devil magick npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc distro hopping time.. see y'all on the other side. hopefully from #fedora. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc anyone have any opinions about #keydb and #valkey? i was about to start a project with the former when i learned about the latter. i really like #redis and am looking into replacements. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc the new APs seem to have done well overnight. need to get some cable routed and mount them to the ceiling and then I'm golden. i'll knock out the house chores after that, maybe do a cable run to my son's room, and then it's time to be a sloth for the rest of the day. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1qnq…9whd happy father's day and good tzag to you, too! npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Uncovering Secrets Of Logitech M185’s Dongle npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Another late night but it was a fairly solid day. Good #tzaf , #fediverse. Hope you all have/had a splendid day! npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc @npub1vf8…pvfv holy shit, bazzite looks rad. though my desktop is set up for a lot of work type stuff so i dunno if i want a dedicated gaming distro. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Saturday night, dark room, repetitive electronic music, server and network configuration. Some things never change. npub1lschvudzd0sw2q60jtt9z4ljdkyf0ntmxdhquq6cty66z52msjzszryg4v hobbsc Finally getting around to installing my network upgrades. I'd really like to distro hop to fedora today but man is that some serious effort. Probably won't happen.
