Sat down and gave Subnautica a real try and turns out it’s “oh god is that really the time?” fun.

As a programmer who uses software

I need to be careful complaining about software

or someone will think i volunteered to fix it

On the list of things I’m curious about but not curious enough to fix:

pytest -x through 848 non-browser tests in my Django project

neofetch output of Linux system stats

Non-browser because I thought maybe playwright was responsible for the slower time on Linux (~13m compared to ~9m30s on WSL2)

Not so much apparently.

@rafial I’ve pondered reimplementing my current project with sqlite as the backend multiple times, since it’s an internal tool that doesn’t need “web scale” and has built-in most of the needed features requiring an extension in postgres.

Accidentally made my machine single boot Windows with a bad Linux install but I won’t stop until the natural order is restored and my PC is either dual boot or on fire.

(this is also why i leave the laptop alone)

Pop OS always starts out so promising. Smooth, buttery, comfortable.

Gonna try to keep track of the point where I accidentally make it awful this time, and maybe not do that anymore.

Interesting. That was something specific to my Manjaro setup apparently, because on a fresh Pop OS installation, those non-browser tests finish in 3m54s.

No, I don’t know why. No, I don’t care. Tests go brbrbrbr

The completionist in me insists I mention that the full tests take 5m53s in Pop OS vs 9m:37s in WSL2 vs 14m8s in Manjaro on my machine
