When you have PTSD, one of the most important things you can do is not let hypervigilance become your personality.

Learning and re-learning all kinds of stuff in the new job lately, mostly related to Oracle, which is big here cuz momentum ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

New(ish): tablespaces, SDO geometry, Toad, DBeaver, all kinds of schemas and storage.

Re-learning: SDE system tables, intercepts, and permissions stuff.

Lots of spaghetti to untangle.

Day 3 in the new job today. Had to go into the office cuz software I need wasn't installing at home over the VPN. Whatevs, it worked onsite.

Hoping to do some actual *work* next week, but we'll see... I imagine I'm going to be in learning mode for quite a while. #NerdLife #gischat

Klassiker-Zeit auf der Couch. ☕🎬
Für mich ist "Zorn des Khan" immer noch der absolut beste Star Trek Film. Punkt. Perfekter Soundtrack, bester Bösewicht. Der Montag kann mich mal, ich bin im Weltraum.
Welcher Trek-Film ist eure unangefochtene Nummer 1? (Und wehe, jemand sagt "Nemesis"...)

Ugh! I wanna work on my new campaign setting but I dont want to put too much out there because I dont want to make my players feel overwhelmed. 😫 plus I have that urge to specifically creative in this way so I cant even work on other things.

Just stopped myself before I tried a firmware update on my @starlabssystems #StarBook at 22:48 when I'm tired and about to go to bed. Definitely need a personal tech change freeze after 9pm. #nerdlife

A riveting saga of nerds spending a year rearranging deck chairs on the Arch Linux 🚢💻. Spoiler: it involves more acronyms than a government agency 🥱. But hey, at least the Web of Trust and the Berblom algorithm are now free to roam the wilds of irrelevance 🤖.

Soo close..

I found a very reasonable looking tutorial on setting up on and since I do I figure wth..

The sudo setup command starts a flurry of git clones and compiles.. 15 mins later yay config gui.. then the app launches..yesss

I copy over a couple games.. open it..there they are..click play.. blink..blink..nope. 🤦‍♂️

I think its video compatability.. the x11 wayland thing and I dwanna play with it.. boff..

Do got goin tho.. so theres that..

I wished setting up Ente was as easy as tapping “Install” on the Play Store — but my self-hosting journey taught me way more about stack quirks, 500 errors, and encrypted success.

Ich wünsche euch schon mal einen #gutenRutsch ins neue Jahr, wir sehen/lesen uns auf der anderen Seite.

#Silvester #pnpde #Nerdlife

Auf vergangene Abenteuer,
bestandene Gefahren
und errungene Siege
Auf die Freunde die wir gewonn
und die die wir verlorn
Möge altes Leid bald vergessen sein

Auf das neue Jahr
dass unser Weg
gesäumt sein möge vom
Reichtum, Glück, Liebe
und all dem was wir uns erträum’

Just fired up my new RTOS Linux 6.12 RT build with Tor, ProxyChains, and Lynx. 🚀

Opened dnsleaktest.com and... surprise!

I’m showing a Swedish IP! 🇸🇪🧑‍💻

Unfortunately, I'm not in Sweden, but hey, who can complain? The build works flawlessly!
