30...ish
New Mexico
Software Dev Student (1st yr)
Selfhosting dork (2nd yr)
Guitarist (20+ yrs)
FOSS enthusiast going on 20 years.
Floss enthusiast going on 3 (my dentist would be thrilled if I had one)

In no particular order I value privacy, liberty, precision, novelty among some other things highly. I believe that people should be kind to each other. I think communities are too large, interconnection and travel is fine but we don't even know our neighbors. I feel very strongly in general. I'm nice, I think, but I can be overbearing and tend to insert myself where I don't necessarily belong.

I'm not so good at this social media thing, this is an experiment for me.

Also I'm sorry to anyone I ever told that wayland was difficult to set up. I don't think I've ever had a working desktop set up this quickly while still using only 100% libre soft.

I think ID and age verification laws are bad, inherently. By nature of using systemd, arch will end up complying because systemd is already complying. I can't abide this. Void Musl it is.

re: Cameras Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive
Guess I should say what film I got. I'm learning to use the camera with some Fujifilm 400, which the internet seems to think might actually be Kodak Ultramax? Idk, The plan is to learn the camera then switch to Lomography Violet for some nature photography.

I just got some film for my C3 Matchmatic today. I've never used it before, had it nearly 8 years. Now begins the long and arduous process of learning manual photography, I guess 🤷.

Was too dark to get many good shots, I went out at like the absolute minimum amount of light that wouldn't register a 0 on the S3 meter and snapped a couple pics of the MGB.

The shutter timer is a bit jammy on slower speeds. Somewhere around 1/40s it gets stuck, I've been applying minor force at the bottom to get the 1/30 shots I needed for the low light shots.

I'll post them here and on my blog once I get them developed.

How do y'all feel about Futo? I don't trust em (i don't trust any corpos) but I *feel* like they're a lesser evil? Idk, i think it was their "Tower of Zyn" video they put out to celebrate immich getting a stable release. That felt kinda evil to me. Like "look at all these highly addictive stimulants we went through to power through this project, surely this won't have lasting effects that ripple throughout our company". And more recently they posted a video with "how hyprland can win" and like, first off "win what?", thats not how this works you bunch of capitalpilled eggbrains, but second, hyprland, seriously? the ONE desktop environment tied to some *less than savory* political ideals and they choose THAT ONE to champion? Sus as fuck. SUS AS FUCK.

Idea for an actually useful AI tool:

Reverse translation. Using consistent peculiarities and oddments in translated text to identify which language the text was translated from.

Someone with more time than me, make it happen. Or i guess I can learn to train a model but like I really don't wanna do that.

So I'm replaying Kotor and Kotor 2 for the first time in a while. I've attempted to replay them last year and kept having issues with glitches in combat (turn on v-sync if you're playing through proton, it solves like 99% of the problems these games have still).

Anyway, this is my first actual replay since my transition which started... holy shit 4.5 years ago. I'm enjoying playing as girl, seems to make more of a difference in TSL than KOTOR.

I was surprised at Atton's remark about female Dark Jedi, it had a vibe somewhat like "Hell hath no fury..." but it seemed almost offensive? He said something along the lines of "When a woman falls to the dark side you'd better space yourself before she finds you" and I mean like, I've done my time as a grippy girl, he's not wrong.

Floss enthusiast going on 3 (my dentist would be thrilled if I had one) In no particular order I value privacy, liberty, precision, novelty among some other things highly. I believe that people should be kind to each other. I think communities are too large, interconnection and travel is fine but we don't even know our neighbors. I feel very strongly in general. I'm nice, I think, but I can be overbearing and tend to insert myself where I don't necessarily belong. I'm not so good at this social media thing, this is an experiment for me.

So sometimes I give my fish little bits of ground dried carrot since they're guppies and become super vibrantly colored with sufficient b-carotene.

Today I was looking at my tank, and i guess I dropped in a piece that was too big because one of my juvie females looked like she prolapsed (as in, shit her whole ass). A careful netting and transfer into a dish where I could slowly encourage the prolapse to reverse by hand resulted in, well it turns out she just ate a giant chunk of carrot. It was not in fact her whole ass she had shit.

I swear these fish are gonna be the death of me, like can y'all go a week without one of you doing something to convince me you're dying?!

@starchy Wild that this took so long for them to fix. It's not like they haven't known about this vulnerability for half a decade.

Y'all ever read a discussion post and realize a few of your classmates wildly misinterpreted the assignment?

@itsfoss@mastodon.social I was getting that error a lot, only directly after a software reboot. Turns out my pc doesn't fully pwoer-cycle everything when I do a software reboot (obviously 🤦) and one of my USB drives is permanently mounted, when it looks for the drive at boot it's already initialized and refuses to mount it (or even recognize that it exists). Turning off fast boot solved the problem.

@bugbear@indiepocalypse.social Still need to buy a domain for just me but the one I got for my homelab is just my partner and my own surnames combined with the cheapest TLD I could find attached.

A PS1 is $60 if you're looking for a use for all those CDs (she said, totally not suggesting you pirate the entire PSX game collection)

We have a lot of arroyos in my area that look of similar construction. Do y'all happen to get a lot of waterflow in the wet season/snowmelt season? It could be for erosion prevention.
