Finally got an internal gear hub installed on my bike (got a lucky local deal on a lightly used Nexus 7.. ha why does that sound like a tablet name-) aaaaaaa it’s so good now. Fuck derailleurs, all my homies hate derailleurs.

The GabeCube is cool and all but the REAL Year of Linux on the Desktop moment this year was this GUADEC talk by @bugaevc about porting a Serious Enterprise Money Business application from Win32 to GTK. Genuinely amazing that this is actually happening in the business world??

protip: DO NOT even think about playing that fucking card game you saw on GDQ, especially if you have any work to do. It's actually evil. It's a psychological weapon designed to attack your last chance at productivity.

Signal integrity strikes again!.. Recording talks in a new venue, audio didn't give me any trouble but the projector just didn't want to work with most sources. I thought the "smart" projector was being terrible. Turned out to just be the long-ass cable! Just had to use my own cable and have it […]

wow FreeCAD has been absolutely falling apart for me. Tried to model a kitchen drawer and adding some simple features would crash. And then dimensioning in TechDraw apparently just does not have the way to pull the full length of the underlying edge ugghhhh. Tried to now model a bike accessory […]

I haven't heard anyone talk about it but we've all seen how much the slopped up flyers/posters/title-cards everywhere all have the same exact style right? Always that one tall narrow font with that FUCKING DIRT TEXTURE over it… Everywhere, all the time, we're getting this "literally dirty" […]

Rain Vase. It’s been eerily dry. It hasn’t rained heavily in almost a month. Usually, this is my favorite time of year. I love standing on the beach under a dramatic, overcast sky watching lightning and off-shore rain storms. I love walking out into the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Today in "the cyberpunk future we got": at a little local awards ceremony for partners of a cooperative bank, one neighborhood org was gifted —no joke— some RAM sticks, an SSD, and a bunch of food. Absolutely last place I expected to encounter the DRAM&NAND crisis at but here we go
