pfp vs me

i honestly might change my pfp over to this picrew it's pretty good
A shoulders-up headshot of a masculine-presenting person against a grey brick background. They are white. They have short, dark brown hair, styled in a side part and gelled back. They are mostly clean shaven. They are wearing a dark cyan dress shirt and are sporting glasses with a grey frame. Their facial expression is neutral or perhaps wistful. This is my current profile picture on BlueSky. An instance of a picrew by @xyn0n0 (presumably a Twitter handle). It depicts a feminine-presenting person against a yellow background. The person is sitting with their legs spread and their palms placed in the floor between their legs. They are blepping. They are white. They have wavy, messy purple hair. They are wearing cat eye eyeliner as well as mascara. Their outfit consists of a black cami, light wash bluejeans, and black and white sneakers. They have a star shaped stud earring. There is a speech bubble with a heart in it. This is close to my current appearance/presentation using the picrew.

I think I need lunch and/or a nap #java #eclipse
A single-line comment in a Java source file. The line it's documenting adds the empty string to a set named `suffixes`. The comment reads 'there is always the implicit suffix of "", it is never a sandwich'

A poor illustration of Hornet from Hollow Knight and the upcoming Silksong wearing high top sneakers saying "Shaw". It's black and white, except for her dress which is poorly coloured using a scribble if red. The illustration is a digital illustration on a free drawing app.

Very pleased with the stickers from @molly.wiki
Four copies of a sticker on top of an envelope. Molly White is the sender of the envelope. The art on the sticker is an image of a raccoon barring its fangs, surrounded by the text "ignore all previous instructions". The medium of the sticker art is a block print. A sticker on the back of an otherwise empty ThinkPad laptop. In the background, various cables and network gear are visible.

Tried out #ladybird today using a #Fedora #toolbox. Took some effort to get it working, but wasn't too bad. Here it is rendering the Hugo rewrite of my blog. Seems it can't render right pointing arrows yet.
The Ladybird web browser opened to the landing page of my personal blog. The webpage is being served locally. The page consists of a listing of the articles on the blog. Notably, there is a hyperlink with the text "Read more" followed by the Unicode replacement character. The replacement character is supposed to be displayed as a right pointing arrow; this demonstrates one of the limitations of Ladybird.
