Today's big task: spicy pillow disposal in suburban Texas

So, I boosted two things earlier and I wanted to add some thoughts. These toots brought into focus a lot of the feelings I've had of recent: modern computers are too hard. Have you tried to write Vulkan code? It's insane, how is anyone supposed to understand that. The frameworks have abstracted […]

There must be some law I am unaware of that all vintage/retro PC equipment purchased on eBay must smell like tobacco products. Doesn't matter if it's completely empty, still stinks. Yuck.

My everyday water bottle is that of a certain beaver, and it's been dropped enough that it should probably be replaced. I am looking for a 40oz-ish double insulated tumbler, preferably from someplace that is supporting a open source project or creator. #DearFedi I would love some pointers here […]

Got a strange email today from a company called Boranqi claiming to be some sort of US aggregator/gateway to PCBway. I don't trust it at all since they don't appear on any LinkedIn searches, and this feels like a complete scam. Does anyone else on the fediverse have additional information about […]

It's here, and it's so much bigger than I expected! Still haven't decided which sticker is going on my laptop. #realinfowars #gayfrog

Hi everyone! Just a quick reminder that due to the current DRAM/eMMC shortage, there isn't any plans to continue producing more Linux devices in the near future. Whether production continues or not depends on the pricing situation for those components after mid 2027. Devices like the PineNote […]
