@hyde I bounce around a lot out of habit, but I’m getting muscle memory for having bindings to rearrange and resize windows. And the Lua scripting / config is fun.

If I typed “perl sqitch” I meant “perl sqitch” — I wish search engines would stop trying to be helpful once the search words hit a certain threshold of weirdness.

That includes DDG.

Just got back from being therapeutically bludgeoned with scalding rocks. I highly recommend the experience.

CPU and new fan on. Gonna take a break for a few minutes before I finish plugging everything in and find out if I got my power supply math correct.

Well, okay. Turns out the shiny new CPU was not compatible with my motherboard, and also motherboards don’t like being messed with a lot, but several hours later I once again have the computer I had this morning.

All BIOS updates applied. There’s a weird lack of display flickering and OS complaining now, but I’ll fix that right up.

Funny but sometimes that neurodiverse wiring means that my brain goes

I KNOW THIS THIS IS THE PART WHERE WE’RE SUPPOSED TO SAY A NICE THING
