@bentsai “need?”
Like I’d ever let that stop me.

One of the less inspiring Friday feels is “oh heck it’s almost Monday”

Yes, this is what I needed to jump-start my brain today.

the performance itself is kinda weird (air guitar with instruments I think?) but yeah the song

and then a little more pondering about exactly what 70s guitar rock I wanted next. This’ll do it.

Barry bats at the blinds from his cat seat next to the window.
I take the hint, open the blinds.
He offers a purr-meow for the gesture.
Cats are so much easier to understand than most people.

@mpirnat I’m sorry but it’s (probably) true.

Still giggling a bit at this between me and @perigrin this morning

On the one hand it’s 68F and distinctly breezy. Perfect weather for a storm to mark the entrance of Fall.
Except here it’s called “Blowing Dust Warning.”

Pulling down the hummingbird feeder before the wind does it for us.

Brought the feeder inside and the hummingbirds started having a panic attack, so it’s back out there at least until evening.

@funnelfiasco I’m looking forward to nonplussment!

Windows has Copilot and Recall. macOS has Apple, which defines “petty” as a core value (you know, everything from App Store practices to dongles to suing companies for copyright infringement if they had a GUI back in the day). Linux has Wayland and systemd and also – well – GNU, really.
My next system should be a PC desktop dual booting HaikuOS and a BSD.

@bitprophet I miss thinking computers would get better.

Moonrise. iPhone making it look a lot brighter out than it really is, but it’s also showing all the fun dust in the air.

@blogdiva I only feel confident diagnosing him as an asshole, but these are also concerning symptoms.

@VE2UWY probably FreeBSD. I’ve actually messed with it before.

Linux YouTube fraying at the edges over the Stallman Report, and their comments filling up with doghorns. I recognize handles from GG.
It’s – somewhere past exhausting.
