the bug oscillates between being a puzzle and a punishment depending on sunlight, caffeine, air temperature and a variety of other factors

as someone who has been trying to get help with middle-of-the-night-waking for 2.5 years, and has tried a shit ton of things with diligence, the continual, widely-varying and repetitive amount of things people continually recommend without being asked has been very informative about the human […]

at the gym, various machines and instruments, no clear directive exactly what you are supposed to be doing here, tens of people moving around doing various things, no explanation needed, if there is a common denominator it is a secret

is it gay to go to the gym during off-hours to make still life drawings of the equipment

is there a service anyone likes where you can easily buy phone numbers with monero? ideally can also use the number in your browser and not have to ensure your phone is secure

this seems like the necessary workaround for all the surveillance services that bottom out to requiring a phone number

dreaming of permacomputing software that is so simply designed and bug-free that it quietly supports system administrators to not think about it, to sleep at night, to think about other things, like a healthy microbiome invisibly supporting digestion or support from the ancestors

wondering about "terminal-emulators" / "permacomputing-graphical-application-frameworks" thats can run tuis and terminal programs, but also can run programs that have fewer weird keyboard/mouse quirks than tuis and support images... like i sort of love tuis but they also seem deranged

was in a music rut and tired of my music, and funny that simply asking a friend for music relieved it

also cooking a recipe from a friend

ask a friend is such a beautifully simple practice for shaking things up

if you can say “tailscale funnel and cloudflare tunnel” five times fast, without thinking of the edward snowden “ssl added and removed here!” meme, then you don’t need gateway co-op

would love to see a data visualization of the first time I heard each different word over my lifetime / the frequency with which that word appeared (metaphysically recorded, not via actual data)

funny how caffeine (or anything effecting mood) causes me to move around the kitchen in slightly different patterns

an obsession with superficial notions of efficiency is arguably one of the root problems in our society, but that aside there is a part of me that enjoys funny and quirky/efficient double uses of space and time (clothes drawer is base of standing desk, going running while the rice cooker is going)

wish signal added a feature where you could set a disappearing time for a particular message after sending it, feel like i would prefer that ux for most use cases

successfully renewing a tls certificate on a home server via tls-passthrough feels magic and enjoyable to me each time, even though its now worked reliably tens of times in a row over months

started using standing desk frequently on one leg in tree pose (not as an exercise, just feels nice)
