I prefer it to Linux but I mainly use Linux instead due to wireless support right now.

I did install CDE for a bit, and NsCDE.
NsCDE is slightly unstable, but plain CDE 2.5 worked pretty well

I quite like using emwm on my FreeBSD machine.
I do want to tweak the color scheme a bit though.

I don’t know who this choad is but texting me from two different numbers simultaneously with this sort of right wing spew?
Fuck off into the void.

he is having some issues with his back hips, he has arthritis

2024-07-03 04:28:48

Okay Crichton is having kidney issues. We're going to try subcutaneous fluids every few days but if he doesn't respond within a week... He is 18.
I'm not going to put him through difficult treatments just for me. He's been here for me for 18 years. Letting him go when it's time is the least I can do.

I have a bunch of glass art and I took a glass blowing class ;)

I am just amazed at this attitude that Biden has to go. I mean, sure, but now? It's a little late.
They all want Trump to win because they think they can claw something back afterwards. They're delusional.

2024-07-02 05:10:48

I still regret having gone with a 4k display on my ThinkPad X1 Extreme.
Sure, it's sharp, but ugh I do use some older software that just doesn't handle it well

I need to switch some people over to it from Telegram that I originally convinced to use Telegram 🤣 Like my mom

2024-06-29 22:15:00

JFC I am not a huge Biden fan but it's a little too late to have the entire Democrat machine turn on him.
Do you all want Trump? This is how you get Trump.
Dumbasses.

"How many husbands have you had?"
"Mine, or other women's?"
"Yours."
"Five."
"Five?"
"Yes, just the five. Husbands should be like Kleenex. Soft, strong and disposable."
"You lure men to their deaths like a spider with flies."
"Flies are where men are the most vulnerable."
"Right!"

I found it because of trying to type in Spanish years ago, and I hate misspelling things because of my keyboard layout!
But real Irish names need the characters too, that's for sure.

wait that's the origin of the phrase "dead key"?

There are a lot of things about the Mac that irritate me, but how macOS makes accented characters available on a US keyboard is great
ñ is Option-N N
é is Option-E E
ò is Option-~ O
å is Option-A
ü is Option-U U
î is Option-I I
ç is Option-C
(there are other combinations, and any of the two key ones listed above can take a different secondary key)

what, you don't like 50 copies of the same piece of software on your machine in opaque packages that can't easily read files from your $HOME?

I say p-code. After that, you've already built something you can adapt to native codegen if you want, later.

ignore the newlib errors, I can fix those, I just haven't implemented the wrapper functions yet.

This sub-heading on an Apple story:

boy if that isn't some misdirection bullshit, Tim.

I swear I'm about 30 seconds from buzzing my head
I've been letting my hair grow out and I am so tired of it

2024-06-20 22:53:16

do you like *good* techno / synth-pop?
Yes? Of course you do.
Do you know Yello? You've probably heard "Oh Yeah" from *Ferris Bueller's Day Off*
If you liked that, you should listen to this remix compilation of theirs: "1980-1985 The New Mix In One Go"
https://tidal.com/browse/album/64627096?u
standout tracks: "Vicious Games", "Sometimes (Dr. Hirsch)", "Desire", "Bostich"
yes maybe I'm showing my age with this but holy shit this album still makes me dance my ass off
