I actually don't mind grocery shopping with the city bus at -10Β°C. But don't fucking cancel bus routes, I'm not gonna freeze outside for 45 minutes waiting for the 'next one'. Have a fucking plan, STM...

For your weekend relaxation: 1.8 billion years of plate tectonics in 72 seconds.

Fun to locate your hometown (or ancestral town) and track where it's been over the years...or how long it's even existed as a physical location.

I'm not trying to make a point, just trying to prove that I'm right


Love this comment! I'll never understand why sighted #WebDev or #OpenSource people enjoy making their own lives harder for when they age. Maybe they like struggling as they get older? I just don't get it, but see github.com/WordPress/gutenberg… #Wordpress #Accessibility #A11y

Another #100DaysToOffload have passed, I completed the challenge once again! So I decided to offload some thoughts about it!

Time to update the website again @kev ;)

Any headline that starts with β€œElon Musk says” should be followed by a warning label, like a can of rat poison: β€œDo not ingest unless you want your brain to leak out”
in reply to JA Westenberg

Since #Twitter is now #Xitter, I propose the posts be called #Xcretions.

"Musk, in a series of Xcretions last night on the Xitter..."

It's nothing but Xcrement on that site.



Thanks everyone for a great LUG! If you want to watch the replay, there you go youtube.com/watch?v=kPe36VFY89…


Fun fact: thanks to Bluesky I discovered that I can carry my cat in our old Baby K'tan and now that is what I put him in when he tries to eat chicken off the hot stove

Realized I never posted my last inktober piece from this year. I went out of my comfort zone on this one with a lot of soft layering inspired by one of my favorite artists on IG. #goodomens #gomens #crowley #anthonyjcrowley #inktober #inkdrawing

Deep Space Network, β€œZenn La” from Big Rooms, 1993

Deep Space Network was formed in Germany by David Moufang and Jonas Grossman, released in Germany in ’93 on their own Source Records label, and in ’94 in the US by Instinct Ambient. Oh, how I used to DEVOUR those instinct releases…

Zenn La, the opening track of their first release, provides their perfect entry point. A trippy spoken passage welcomes you as calm waves of #synth guide you through the rhythmic threshold where the melody widens before you, with audio references to the natural world grounding the journey throughout.

This track isn’t formless #ambient, nor hyper-beat #IDM, but lovely, even soulful, true #ChillOut music.

Go on, start it up...let the spoken intro adjust your mind, then relax and let the music take you.

Trump’s brain is…did you ever find a Silly Putty egg that rolled behind a furnace in 1956 and now the putty is cracked and hard as a marble just rattling around in the egg, and you know if you moisturized it, it would scream like the trapped spirit of a child murderer before evaporating? Like that.

Do all these people kissing up to Trump realize how far gone he is? Does Bannon have dirt on their relatives? Hey, where is Bannon?


I don’t HAVE a WIKIPEDIA PAGE, because I’m NOT NOTABLE
in reply to Jason Lefkowitz

I get spammers pitching these to me once every few months … so annoying. They must think that we don’t know how Wikipedia works?
in reply to Jason Lefkowitz

Ask any of my exes, they’ll be happy to tell you precisely how not notable I am


Just installed BunsenLabs Linux on a ThinkPad X13 with Ryzen 7 processor.

First impression is that they did a good job with the defaults, OpenBox theming, keyboard shortcuts and initial instructions.

in reply to .: jdkiser :.

I'm sure that some of your posts mentioning #bunsenlabs influenced me a bit. πŸ˜„

Was researching #openbox last night and I ran across mentions of BunsenLabs Linux again and thought I'd give it a spin.

I'll be installing it on older hardware, too. I'm mostly learning about OpenBox and how BunsenLabs polished their configuration.
