I think of my time with devices like a “food pyramid,” as though that concept ever made sense -

• time on phones: designed to be distracting; tightly controlled by corporations; very bad
• using web browser: much better control, but still limited to corporate controlled ecosystems; better to focus on the “tiny web,” the fediverse, and other unique experiences and events like connecting with remote loved ones, Twitch Plays Pokemon, web fiction & art like creepypastas and SCP
• using e-reader: controlled by user and authors with minimal intrusion by corporations; designed for long focus; ties into deep traditions of form while still supporting powerful features like dictionary lookups, searching, etc (emacs might should also go in here somewhere but I am tired)

what’s the easiest client situation for a setup like this? do you basically need to be visiting the server address using a web browser, so you can stream on a laptop or maybe awkwardly on something like a steam deck?

I use the terminal because text errors are much easier to parse, research, and discuss than GUI error states.

also, it looks nicer than most GUIs, because of the great color schemes and CLI app designs that people make for us.

also I use the fish shell and emacs and I have a lot of custom scripts I’ve built over the years, so my user experience is a delight, and my automation capabilities are greater than they would be if I preferred GUI-based solutions.

I think Python csv would save that as "Pass\",\"words\",\"Are\",\"fun\",\"\\n" and then it would be read by Excel / LibreOffice / Python csv as expected.

you can easily find one on the used marketplace though. try searching reverb.com or asking around in {hated alien site}/letstradepedals or the collector / emitter discord server.

$200 is a lot for an overdrive, though, artistic/political appeal aside.

I wasn’t expecting there to be very much more to this joke besides its premise as expressed in the submission title, but by the time I got all the way through the readme and the “exe” file I was really laughing.

I qualified for my first dev job by being interested in programming, and knowing my way around the command line (Linux is best), git, vim, and Python. practicing with things like leetcode, advent of code, and making things with apps like pelican and pyxel is a great way to ease into it and tread water until you can get that first role.

just don’t let it make you feel helpless. there’s always going to be a lot that you don’t know. taking a deep breath and accepting that is the way towards thriving.

you’re askinghow did it cause me anguish, or how did I emotionally heal?

I went quite a few years making oatmeal for myself and my kids every day, usually with brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and frozen blueberries.

the kids have stopped enjoying it, though, after all the repetition, so we’ve started doing breakfast cereal, Raisin Bran and one of the Cheerios permutations that has some oat/nut ingredients, so these days I just have Raisin Bran.

I’m circumcised and it has caused me so much mental anguish and pain. I’ve done the work of nurturing myself back to a mentally healthy place about it, but I beg you not to put another person in that position if you can avoid it.

lmao es heisst “Fenster” in Deutsch? naturlich

A lot of resources? Yes. A lot of good resources? No. DuckDuckGo for it and you’ll find a lot of blogspam.

we got there in Worm early and often

it’s a lot of work!

Stuffed French Toastius

ridiculous. not even contesting that they are a monopoly, or that they engage in illegal conduct!

because I wanted the “punchline” to come at the end of the meme so I reversed it.

I did look up the help for that function to make this meme but I must have missed that option. in my defense I’ve only been using Python for like 10 years

it works in Ruby on Rails but not in bare-naked Ruby, if that gives you a hint of how the language’s architecture makes things easy for you and also might stab you in the back one day.

I don’t think it matters to your dental health as long as it’s not a regular thing. but for me, I would always rebrush in a scenario like that just because I can’t really go to sleep without a freshly brushed mouth.
