Logged in to my Linux boot now. Just set up everything else that I used to have on my Windows PC here as well.

For now, let me share my fastfetch setup kasi sabi ni @richardparayno.com right of passage na raw ito for all Linux users wahaha
Screenshot of a terminal window running fastfetch on Chi’s Linux setup. The left side shows an ASCII art logo of the CachyOS logo, and the right side lists system details including username ‘chi@pchi’, CachyOS x86_64, hardware specs (Intel i3-12100 CPU, NVIDIA RTX 3060 GPU), displays, theme, fonts, memory and swap usage, disk usage, and network information. A color palette is displayed at the bottom.

okay this is somewhat reasonable, I'll go with this 😆

GASP but I just realized after typing this... that lazygit also gives me the ability to SELECT MULTIPLE LINES!!

Let's goooooo HAHAHA my cli is just going thru a buncha changes now 😂

thank god this is just my personal website repo and I can force push as much as I want lmao
Screenshot of Chi's lazygit command line interface with all the listed items in the Commits section selected, and the footer showing a status of "Amending" with a spinning pipe character next to the keyboard shortcuts of some common commands run in lazygit.

man, good to know lazygit makes it easier to rename the author for past commits... imagining that I have to do this all manually with just an interactive git rebase is 😵‍💫
A screenshot of the lazygit command line interface, showing the Commits section (marked with 4) and some commits saved locally to Chi's repository listed. Some of the commits have the initial "ch" noted as an author, which ends up until the highlighted line that shows the commit message, "Do a buncha changes to my site". The commits listed after that are all noted with an initial "CS" for the commit author, which would stand for "Chi Señires" in this case, since those commits were made by Chi on her Mac where her authorship is set up better there.

OK TIL the domain would just be encoded with Punycode?

Saw an example in this Punycode converter: www.charset.org/punycode
Screenshot of a form to convert unicode to punycode and vice versa. The first field shows the text "mañana.com" as an example, with a button after labeled, "Normal text to Punycode". The next field shows the decoded domain in unicode, with the value showing as "xn--maana-pta.com" and a button after it labeled, "Punycode to normal text".

eto na muna setup for now to learn my new Baseform keyboard from Posture Atelier :))

di ko pa makilala this past week kasi masyadong busy with stuff but now I have time to get to know the key bindings 😄

I updated the fonts my website has from just Inconsolata to Victor Mono for headings and Chivo Mono for body.

Kinda just had a bit more fun with selecting some monospace fonts while I was looking for a replacement for Inconsolata :)) I'll let this stay as is for the meantime 😁

Update: a friend on Threads reminded me the `dub.sh` link is something managed by the dub.co link shortener, so I reported the links I got from the spam texts thru their website at dub.co/legal/abuse

After an hour, links were banned! At least based on the email correspondence.
Screenshot of the Gmail app showing an email thread from Team at Dub.co with the subject, “Re: Dub.sh Abuse Report”. Two emails are expanded that read: “Thank you for reporting! The link has been banned. Best, Steven Tey (@steventey), Founder, Dub.co”

nako they're moving on from Whatsapp to Telegram na. Stay vigilant!! Don't tap links in text messages unless ineexpect niyo siya (and even then, be mindful of what you share on forms!)
Screenshot of a text message supposedly from Telegram that contains a suspicious link. The message reads: “Please log in to verify this number again, otherwise your account will be blocked.”

suspicious email alert! it was also detected by Gmail as spam, but just sharing for additional awareness. Always double check where the email came from and just don't click things immediately, especially if you're not expecting anything.
Screenshot of a spam email in Gmail from an account named "Zoom Invite", with the reply-to email as "replyemail@exaple.com". The email is highlighted with red text to its side which reads, "what the hell even is this email". The subject is "Your Meeting Link is Here" and the email looks similar to a Zoom meeting invite with a wrongly styled button with the label "Start Meeting" in the middle. On the right, red text is put on top which reads "very suspicious looking". At the top of the screenshot is big red text "Suspicious Email Alert!"

Hooray! Mastodon link previews of my website now link back to my account 😁

That's one thing done hehe

When I saw the 3 mahjong tile charms at Russet Accessories, booth I knew I had to get all 3 😆

I now have a chow, sana eventually I can get it to grow to a full hand 🤣🀄️

pedestrian pathways that are blocked for pedestrians will always confuse me. not really sure why people can't cross up the stairs here if someone was headed to or from Shang East Wing, for example?

May be for security purposes but honestly just doesn't make sense sometimes 😅
Several large plant boxes and pots with tall leafy green plants partially obscure the short stairway entrance leading up to Cafe Lyon at Shangri-La.

lmao i was poking around @playnite.bsky.social and saw my current stats for all the Steam and Xbox games I play. I am exposed 🤣

If Solitaire gets / has a competitive scene, lemme in jk
Screenshot of Chi’s top game playtimes from Playnite. Leading the list is Microsoft Solitaire Collection with 534 hours, followed by Stardew Valley at 158 hours. Other notable titles include Hades II, Balatro, Cyberpunk 2077, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Fields of Mistria, and DAVE THE DIVER.

lol seems like according to this list, I am not that much of an old weeb :)) but I picked up watching more (popular) anime once I started working 😆

total of 49 out of 277 listed anime watched!

Generated from: anime-sedai.egoist.dev
Anime viewing tracker chart from anime-sedai.egoist.dev showing years 2006-2024 in rows with anime titles in columns. Green cells indicate completed anime, white cells show unwatched titles, and red year labels mark each row. Header shows ‘49/227 anime watched’. The chart shows a clear pattern of increased viewing activity in later years, with earlier years (2006-2012) having very few completed anime marked in green, while recent years (2017-2024) show significantly more green cells indicating higher viewing frequency.

hello, I just want to share a life update for all:
I'm injured due to a minor self-accident yesterday while riding my bike home 😅 nag-pop kasi front tire ko bigla so na off-balance ako while slowing down to turn sa road 🙈

I'm ok now though! Got attended to at the ER yesterday & resting at home 😊

I’m really thankful I got to attend #Config2025 in person, after many years of just attending it online. Lots of things just fell into place, after some missed opportunities in the past.

So many firsts with this trip, and lots more to experience in the coming days for me 😄
Chi posing with her arms and one leg raised in front of Moscone Center on a nice sunny day, with the first 3 stylized letters or glyphs of "Config" shown above her on the glass windows of the building. Lots of other conference goers are seen walking around and about behind Chi. Chi posing with her arms and one leg raised gesturing to the huge "Figma" sign stuck on the white wall behind her in the tall hallway of Moscone Center. Ceiling lights shine spotlights on the wordmark and Chi's position puts her under the i of the logo from the perspective of the image. Other conference goers are also visible nearer the wall. Flatlay of Chi's Config 2025 badge on a wooden surface with a blue lanyard and a Polaroid photo of her posing in front of a green glyph for the sign of Figma Commons. On her badge, her name, pronouns, role, and company are shown. The stickers 'English Multi-Lingual' and 'Friends of Figma' are stuck on the decoration section of her badge. A single pink on green glyph pin is also attached to her lanyard. Three stickies on a wall made to look like the FigJam canvas with the dotted effect. The first sticky is a green circle with the Friends of Figma Philippines logo and 'Hello from FoF Philippines! - Chi :)' written on it. The second sticky is found to the bottom left of the first and is a fuschia hexagon that reads 'First in-person Config!' and PH and SF are separated with an airplane emoji drawing. The last sticky is a yellow circle found at the bottom of the previous one which reads 'Sana dumami Pinoy designers!'.

I also stuck some new stickers on my work laptop's clear case 😎 Slowly filling it up! hehe
Top-down shot of Chi’s MacBook with a clear case, reflecting her silhouette and peace sign in the glossy surface. The case is decorated with vibrant stickers from Figma Config 2025, including 'Config Commons,' 'Config APAC,' 'Philippines Friends of Figma,' and more. Other stickers include Tambayan 404, Humanforce, Next Keyboard Club, and fun phrases like 'budol' and 'naol.'

Here’s my #Config2025 haul!

This isn't everything though, but I got too lazy to re-take it and this already looked good enough 😆 (I was wearing the Config sweater since it's really cold tonight as I write this and the riso prints I got were already tucked in my bag)
Top-down view of Chi's Figma Config 2025 haul displayed on a couch. Two large Figma-themed T-shirts with illustrated designs are draped at the back. The haul includes plushies, multiple smaller shirts, a water bottle, various stickers and pins, a black cap, a denim cap with a green Figma logo, and a black book titled 'Practice.' Chi's event badge with attached pins and a lanyard is centered in the display, laid over an airsprayed bandana featuring the Figma logo.

For now, let me share how I'm currently planning how I'll be posting the numerous photos I've taken... 😆 Had to jump into a FigJam board and group them together to make sense of it all haha! Now I'm ready to post them all. 😁 #Config2025
Screenshot of a FigJam board with several grouped photo collections from Config 2025. Group titles include "#confits" showing daily outfits across Day 0 to Day 2, "With Configmates" showing photos with friends during each day, "Config Haul" showing merchandise or swag items, "FoF Leader Group Pics" showing group shots with other Friends of Figma leaders, "Me at Config" featuring solo event moments, and "meeting people" showing individual photos with notable attendees and names labeled underneath some.

Took me a while to put together—mostly due to me traveling haha—but I have my virtual badge for #Config2025! 😄

First in-person attendee in SF 🥹 also bringing along #FoFPH with me in the form of stickers 😆

You can make your own badge from this Community file: www.figma.com/community/fi...
Chi’s Figma Config 2025 virtual badge on an orange background, featuring colorful abstract glyphs and icons. The badge includes her photo, pronouns (she/her/hers), location (Metro Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭), and a label indicating she is an 'SF in-person attendee.' Logos for Friends of Figma and Friends of Figma Philippines are present, along with various FigPals and Figma icons in playful shapes and colors.
