Cat during morning: Where food? Me angy! *bites* *throw stuff off shelf*
Cat right after breakfast: Omg I love you so much *takes a nap on your lap*
Me: *takes ADHD meds*
Me: Okay, now, no coffee for 8 hours or so okay? I don't want to feel like I am about to die.
Other Tgirl: *Drinks ADHD meds with a Monster energy drink*
Me:.... WHAT.... are you okay???
She: Yeah why? I do this all the time.
Me: .... How are you alive? .... 
Noelle from #deltarune is trans because of one very important detail:
Because I say so.
Okay now for reals: Just let people have their headcanons. Noelle is my favorite character, and transgender people get almost no representation whatsoever on mainstream media. Name a protagonist of a cartoon that is officially confirmed (inside the show) to be a transgender girl.......
Yeah.... same goes for videogames.
We get (at most) a side character that shows up for one or two episodes. That if we are lucky. We don't get arcs, we don't get an in-depth story, we get a quick "btw she was a trans girl" and then cut to credits.
So just imagine being able to go: "Woah... i can relate to a character on an emotional level" just once.
I need that, we need that. We need to feel like we are not alone.
So yeah, in my head Noelle is a transgirl. And that is okay. And if you don't like it, idk, go complain to the thought police.
I have a C1 English level, maybe even C2. And I am being forced to go to B1 level classes just because: "They are part of the course".
If they end up not letting me skip these classes I am leaving the course. I keep having nightmares about English workbooks chasing me up to this day... I am NOT putting myself through this torture ever again.
They could have written:
"Solutions will be chosen in a neutral manner, based on how effective they are at solving a problem".
instead of... this.
Really, this single sentence is the one and only thing that pushes me away from OpenBSD.
What do they consider politics? Do they consider transgender people to be "politics"?
Are disabled people also "politics"?
Is a screen reader considered "politics" since it helps a minority? How about a colorblind filter?
The term "politics" has a different meaning depending on who uses it.
Flipo con la gente de recursos humanos que están tan des-sensibilizadas con la realidad, que cuando encuentran a alguien que no quiere trabajar en una casa de apuestas/casino les preguntan:
"Huh? Por qué no???"

At class we had these 10 or so pages of legal documents we had to read through and make a summary of.
And everyone else finished... in 15 minutes or so.
And the teacher was like: Okay, now that we are all finished let's upload it to the online campus and do another one!
Listen. There is NO way, they read those pages AND wrote a full summary of them in just 15 minutes. They cheated; They used AI. She knows, she HAS to know.
So... yeah, I guess that's just how stuff goes now.
I'm finishing everything at home I guess...
me: 2000 history lines for my shell should be enough...
me *30 days later* NOPE

Can't believe there is only deltarune 6 7 left
OOOOOffffff 😖
This sounds so bad.
Like "let's keep this apolitical" bad.
stop using echo -e
I am sick and tired of it.
echo -e is not real.
stop
there is no such thing as an -e flag on echo
Yes, I am the weird person that formats SD cards as f2fs instead of exFat.
"I'll just install that library from the c++ package manager"
cppip install cppotato
"and I'll import it as a module using the C++20 import statement"
import cppotato.potato;
potato.explode();
"Amazing!"
If only it was like that...
How is it called?

i wonder if It's safe in #Debian to jump from unstable to testing (sid to forky).
Anybody knows?
Repurpose your local abandoned mall into a brand new abandoned AI datacenter today!

I have this silly idea of taking busybox, toybox, gnucoreutils and the freebsd coreutils and writing the manpages for the posix shell utilities in a way that you can get manpages that show actual portable flags and behavior instead of relying on the featureset from POSIX to make portable scripts when most coreutils share flags that are not in POSIX and are useful.
Same for shell builtins.
It's funny how I used to always record video in 16:9 because it was the "cool cinematographic experience" (not really, movies are even wider) but now I'm back to recording at 4:3, with a square overlay on top for centering in case I want to crop the video into a square. All because of social media.
I'm never recording vertical video tho, that's cursed.
- Panoramic is for wide areas like landscapes, rooms, events.
- Square is for showing objects, small actions, small creatures (cat).
- Vertical is for self obsessed people recording each others bodies.
it's so fascinating to see how Unix before 1980 already hashed passwords. And yet you would be surprised at how many services still don't do that.
Even by 200X it was not that common to hash passwords.
The most basic principles are the hardest to learn apparently.
I need to find that one medium size tech company that is not involved in some morally grey areas and has an office in this city where I can work in for a bit over minimum wage.
Yooo
Spain won the world cup!!! Yay!
I have been using Linux for more than 8 years.
And I didn't know you can do cd - to go back to wherever you were before.
HOW did I not know this for so long.
- Well actually, that is not technically a youtube poop—
- Do NOT recite the ancient .AVIs to me mortal. I was there when they were uploaded.
sure... i could write manpages in the old troff man format... or I could write them in markdown and use lowdown to turn them into troff...
devilishly devilish luzzy
Computing is still magic

Personality/job test I took back at HS
All those AI datacenters if they get built they are getting abandoned in less than 10 years, mark my words.
can't wait for them to sanction Santa Claus for mismanagement of the melting of the ice caps causing US cities to flood in the future.

I wonder how they switch from driving on the right to driving on the left in the tunnel that connects the France with the UK.
people proposing calling the next generation of kids born "gen-AI" have an interesting sense of humor... but still: Do not.
#NetBSD being awesome as usual.
Someone should make a list of countries where It's easier to find a job that doesn't touch on morally grey/wrong areas and still gives you a living wage.

tar -xzf inputfile.tar.gz
- x = extract

tar -czf outputfile.tar.gz ./inputdirectory

It's really not that hard.
