Barry’s back and now both cats are checking in on each other, since two days is the longest they’ve been apart. Plus they both got whacked.
@Ventronik whacked, friend. fixed. neutered. they checked in with carry-on items and lost them at the airport. empty-handed at the tennis court. they got nothing to juggle.
Kitty Jack is back from the vet, and very sedated, which translates to him being super affectionate towards me and rubbing up on everything which means all I hear while prepping for this meeting is happy meows and purring and things crashing.
Jack’s a bit too unsteady to stay in his old fave perch, but he had to give it a try.
many many sirens and the distant flatulence of a farty car which I can only assume and/or hope is related
Not the worst setup for giving a demo.
It’s gonna be a weird night for Barry with his brother gone overnight at the vet. Pulled out the hackers.town hoodie I wore when we picked them up. He immediately camped.
Got Euro Truck Simulator working under Manjaro (mostly fiddling with Steam’s controller settings) and for some reason decided in Windows I play ATS and Linux is for ETS.
Ah the rarely encountered but still vaguely familiar “good news” anxiety.
Using it through the evil layers of Doom, but I can see why Emacs folks are so fond of Magit. Makes core workflow stuff pretty straightforward!
Something just comically appropriate about listening to this while tweaking yet another fresh Linux install.

Having given up on finding my old KVM switch, I have ordered a new KVM switch as part of the summoning ritual for the old one.
Barry has apparently committed to the role of lap kitty and furry rubber ducky.
@hummingrain To be fair, moving to Federal Way I’ve found they’re just as inhumane about the homeless but it doesn’t come up as much because they need time to be inhumane about brown kids too.
Got a dev setup going for the work project using VS Code.
Switching to the 2015 MBP because I need to be on the VPN most of today.
Fire up VS Code.
Uh.
Might want to stick with nvim and tmux until I can upgrade this thing.
@klardotsh
what have we as an industry done?
We let Electron live. There are quicker JS desktop runtimes out there.
Today’s adventure: scheduling a call where there’s more than a continental US of difference in your local times.
Barry is occasionally a lap kitty.
Probably in everyone’s best interest that I set the work code aside after the third attempt at typing “pydata-sphinx” results again in “potato-sphinx.”
