Software I don't want to update. Stop checking for updates. Stop telling me about updates. Stop giving me pop up notifications about updates. Stop having red badges about updates.

I am a huge advocate of building yourself scalable architectures for your work. Then keep the productivity gains for yourself and claw back some free time! Don't pass those productivity gains onto your employer!

I really love my Logitech mouse but hate the software so this seems perfect for me! Except I installed it and my middle mouse button stopped working. It's one of my top 3 mouse buttons!

I love open source projects that face-fuck the will of big corporations This project here allows for management of Logitech devices without the need to login with an account, and also has no telemetry

Am I a crazy person or is there no way to tell how many, if any, people watched on stream.place after you finish? I got 1 chat message tonight so I know it's non-zero, but I can't find any sort of stream summary/review

Fell into the "one more chipotle pepper" to "arghegehfhegehhguoiuao I pepper sprayed myself sautéing" pipeline again

so zoom now has a feature that will generate a vtuber of your face, and attempt to puppet it to approximate your expressions and lip flaps and, having seen it, all i can say is: The Butlerian Jihad was morally correct and we need one Right Now

Being the first to join a meeting feels like I somehow lost a game

Why did I decide to try to live healthier? I have to go to the gym multiple times per week?? I can't just do one long session and get it all over with??? Human bodies require more Dailies than a predatory gacha game.

Session 7 of my campaign, the first non-human combat encounter with the result of: 2 dead goblins 4 goblins taken on as pets I should have seen this coming the minute I introduced goblins as existing.

Finally motivated to seek a management position solely to give my team and new hires poomang personality tests

The Amidala talking to Anakin meme.
1st panel, Anakin asks 'do you like plums?'
2nd panel, Amidala says 'yeah, I'm actually saving some for breakfast'
3rd panel, Anakin stares
4th panel, Amidala looks horrified

It's been a few years since I made onigiri and I forgot how easy it is to get pretty decent results Not shown: me absolutely botching the filling to rice ratio

I fundamentally don't comprehend how product and engineering managers in this org can't wrap their heads around the fact that we want to know the cost to run our products *and* the rate we charge our internal customers. How is money in, money out such a foreign concept?!

Can't wait to dive back into Dark Souls 3 for a little vertebra collecting. Maybe build a bigger mound, make it cozy, brighten the place up with some polished bone. 🗡️ 7pm Wed - DS3 🗡️ 7pm Fri - DS3 🗡️ 7pm Sun - DS3 All times PST #ENVtuber #Vtuber #Vsky #schedule

Weekly schedule for the week, with dates and times in the message body. The design is an Art Nouveau inspired grid layout with framed boxes for each day of the week in a grid pattern.

Back from Adult Summer Camp in Leavenworth! You could smell the wildfire smoke suffusing everything, the air thick. Had a fun time hanging out, playing games, cooking, tie-dying shirts, watching movies, eating a lot of sausage. No Perseids this year, or sky, or sun, or breathing

Photo of the sunset in Leavenworth WA. Two green hills on the horizon are covered in pine trees and obscured by smoke. An orange sunset barely breaks through the smoky overcast sky.

I only listen to podcasts when I drive long distances, or commute, and I rarely do either anymore. So my attempt to catch up with Nightvale is still stuck in 2018! I will get to this decade one day!

Nice part of living alone is that you get to whine and throw a tantrum with a good long "I don't waannnnnaaaaaaa" every time you are getting ready for the gym

And a lot of the optimism, as I experience it, was that if you were the kind of nerd who was on the early Internet at all, the people gaining power were *us*. Us the good guys. Nerds with good nerd values. I feel sometimes there's an insufficient sense of not just anger, but betrayal.

Welcome to the Millennial Fair!
Have fun!

Eating too big of a burrito then lying on my couch going uuuuugggggghhhhhhhhhooooiahhhhhhhhhouuuuuuuuuooohhhhuugghhhhhhhh for an hour

Trying to get my friends to start Fields of Mistria alongside me solely to enable a good old fashioned best waifu/husbando throw down

I am still entertained that this org I don't want to work with is called DNI Sorry I can't respond to your slack, it's right there in your name!

"This AI bot will come up with better insights than a human would" Not sure if this is my boss having no idea how anything works, a severe indictment of our program managers, or both

Booked a winter trip to Tromsø to see the aurora this winter! Now to hope for a nice coronal mass ejection the day I land

Let's all skip work today and watch the 2003 version of Fullmetal Alchemist instead
