I kinda want to create a blog series that explains the stuff we were never taught, or were so academic it was unappealing. Like Money, Faith, Race, Politics, geopolitics, persuasion, etc from an objective non magical thinking perspective. Like a tl;dr for life.

Salí hace un rato de un concierto que me hace unirme a la arenga y extenderla: Del mismo modo que el ecologismo sin compromiso político es apreciación de la jardinería, el arte sin reto estético o conceptual no pasa de ser decoración.

Esto es más relevante y crítico si la obra dice hablar de ecología y se presenta como arte.

Is there a way to set Mastodon to filter out anything with a link that doesn't show what the link is?

Far too many people link dump "This is so cool!" and a link that doesn't show anything, making the one line over it meaningless.

Modern tech is so goddamn needy. My old Motorola flip phone never needed an update before I could make a call.

Soooo looking forward to her gig in cologne.

@Migueldeicaza My dietitian says to go easy on the syntactic sugar and just use function pointers directly. There's more hokum in diet than there is in Agile. Better to eat the carbs and run the marathon. #oldmanyellsatcloud

I hate that role-playing games now have to be called "TTRPG" so that people don't think you mean video games.

No offence to RPG video games--I want everyone to enjoy what they enjoy as long as they're not hurting anyone--but you all are variant. You should be the ones with the clumsier acronym.

@mjd

Cool art.

Digressing, am I missing something or is this a museum that doesn't want visitors? I can't see anything on the website about hours or location.

Edit: Ah it seems that this is the "Corning Museum of Glass GLASS COLLECTION", who'd rather not have you know they are connected to the "Corning Museum of Glass" since there isn't a link back I can find.

Are people shifting to #Linux left and right these days, or am I just too much in the #opensource #echochamber that "switch to Linux" and #endof10 posts are the only things I actually see? It could be that everyone actually loves #windows11 and #AI and #spyware and I'm just an #oldmanyellsatcloud with a head full of #FOSS #copium .... hashtag #yearofthelinuxdesktop

I miss buttons :-( #Tech #Sennheiser #OldManYellsAtCloud https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tL4ZB2sFsts

@Sqlgene I know what the term means, I've been playing rogue, nethack, moria, and angband since the 1980s. I just get puzzled when I see games like #balatro being called roguelike because it's a card game and random elements and having to start all over again when you lose are common to both roguelikes and card games. Maybe I'm being too #oldmanyellsatcloud about this. It's just a name that conveniently describes a game mechanic, much like #metroidvania and #soulslike

I'm tired of hearing the phrase "welcome back to the channel" #oldmanyellsatcloud

What is the point of put little red "Urgent! Pay attention to me!" marks on your website if there is no way to clear them?

Like "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" you are just trying to make communication impossible by flooding things with shit.

And furthermore I DO NOT WANT A VIDEO I JUST WANT A FUCKING PAGE WITH WORDS AND PICTURES ON IT YOU UTTER USELESS CLOWNS.

All I want for #Christmas is a slow news week. I know it's too much to ask for these days but back in my day this week was all fluff stories about the hottest toys and how great consumerism was... It was a simpler time

Can we have a moratorium on insanely overenthusiastic status emails? I received en email this this morning:
"Your order is on its way (woo hoo)! It's really happening, [angst_ridden]! Your [mundane item] order is in the hands of USPS and headed right to your front door."

What? It's "really happening?" Was I supposed to assume my mundane order took place in a dream? Or that there was only a remote chance it'd be delivered?

^^ This whole rant is related to JS/npm world. IDK how it works in other environments. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one struggling with something that everyone claps for. Sometimes I like to think it's because #UX and subsequently #DX are the most important things for me. But maybe it's just #OldManYellsAtCloud

home assistant deprecating every install method they formerly supported (docker, supervisord) except ha-os, which uses both methods they're deprecating updates for.

ha-os is extremely bare bones linux layer that is running supervisord and managing docker.

What a mess.
