God kicked the boulder down the hill; I just dug the trench. Oakland, CA.
RTing art is a thing I really like to do -- it breaks up my drivel. That said, I would like to focus that energy a little more on people who haven't been seen yet, so I'm going to spend a little more time trying to find folks with less RTs by others so you can find them here.

I clean trash every week at the main library in Oakland; xmas and new year's are my day.
xmas was quiet; low trash. But the homeless folks love to party there and there's usually a lot. New Years concerns me.
I do my part for the homeless; I just wish some of them took care of us, too. #oakland

This desktop config has me feeling pretty sexy, at least for a guy who mostly works in shades of grey or blue 99% of the time.
Actually trying to escape that; I think the fixation on blue in my desktop themes has lead to a lot of sleep loss.

In some situations it's important to remember that you're either in first place or last place, so don't blow out your tires trying harder.

You know, I wouldn't expect hyprland to do a better job of handling fullscreen game problems in multi-monitor scenarios better than GNOME, but holy shit, it really does

Made a neat waybar config. The controller icon on the left side of the right end of the bar. Thread has source. I am interacting with the icon with the mouse. Audio has rest.

does anyone read the commentary on pages that you find when googling for emoji?
In this case, I really hope it's an AI. I genuinely feel sorry for those copywriters if not.

Documenting an important JSON format, and I realize that it's about 100% easier to isolate the required or optional fields with JSON tools like golang's struct tags and rust's Option.
swagger is nice, but this makes formal documentation so much simpler.

Saying you "slept like a baby" is such a fucking ridiculous phrase. Unless of course, you mean you were screaming the house down 20 times during the night, and also pissed and shit yourself into the bargain.

cannot empahize how much better this is than rsync or cp/mv at times:
tar c . 2>/dev/null | tar x -C /extra/src 2>/dev/null
