It always amazes me that enriched doughs like brioche existed before the advent of stand mixers. The mere thought of kneading these wet messes by hand makes me want to scream.

Kids in High School:
"I don't understand why I have to take biology, chemistry, and other basic science classes. When am I ever going to use this stuff in my life?!"

As Adults:
"Vaccines cause autism, GMOs are unsafe, climate change is a lie, the earth is flat, and chemtrails!! l've done my research. If you disagree with me, you're a sheep!!"

queer theory? bitch ive proven it

I'm super proud of this everyone!

Last night I managed to get an Apple Pippin to run Doom!

Few things are more satisfying than getting Doom to run on a machine that it wasn't made for! I can't believe I managed to pull this off! I'm so excited!

I got a 8tb HDD for my download directory, imagine the amount of duplicate windows 98 iso files I can store now

Continues to age like fine wine, like 15 years later

Trying to find my people on Mastodon. Please boost and follow me if you:

-want the government to abolish Mondays.

-think that every song could be improved by the addition of an accordian.

-are gaining mass to become too big to fail.

-still have a lingering fear in public places that a flash mob could appear at any second.

-lost faith in our criminal justice system because no one ever went to jail for replacing the lime Skittle with green apple.

"Piracy" is accessibility. "Piracy" is knowledge sharing. "Piracy" is innovation. "Piracy" is resistance to closed ecosystems. "Piracy" is media preservation.

"Pirated"/"illegal" ROMs are why we can still access and play old games.

"Piracy" is discoverability and is its own form of marketing which drives sales.

And I'm absolutely not saying that people shouldn't be paid for their creative work, but it's not us consumers doing the stealing.

it's good that g-code is still in use but the support for paper-tape is lacking these days.
Why can't I just plug in a paper-tape reader to my 3D-printer or laser cutter?

If days were filenames:

The interacting collapse of different ADHD wave-fronts is always so fascinating.

For example, this morning, needing to blow my nose is what got me to light a candle, take my pills, empty the trash, and start doing my biweekly budget.

Happy birthday, #Debian

On this day in 1993, that's 30 years ago, Ian Murdock announced the imminent release of a new Linux distribution.

Right now if you search for "country in Africa that starts with the letter K":

- DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya.

- Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same.

This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke:

"There are no countries in Africa that start with K."
"What about Kenya?"
"Kenya suck deez nuts?"

Google Search is over.
