I like being around people sometimes.

So it feels really weird turning down social invitations because they’re indoors and I don’t know where any of these people have been the last couple weeks.

But I look at FL & AZ’s numbers, and — no. Don’t wanne be part of any WA spike.

@chris people are trying to pack the neighborhood restaurants, but staff are being strict about density.

Folks hating on Perl 5 -> 7, mostly the same that hated on 5 -> 6 — now Raku, at least partly to shut them up — are like my classic rock forever friends.

Like — dude. I get it. It’s great. But some cool stuff has happened since Stairway to Heaven. Let the rest of us move on.

The work laptop has to reboot for mandated updates more often than a Fast Ring windows installation.

My first WTF moment with a fresh pop_os install.

Their store installs Emacs as a flatpak?

hackers.town: 2020-06-23 Tue 10:34

No problem I’ll just install gvim.

um.

(for the record, apt from the command line works just fine at getting the .deb file)

@lecramed I need to organize it enough to make it a blog post, but I need to do that organization anyways.

I only have one “dev” type thing I want to know about Apple stuff and that’s if Safari can handle Webp yet.

hackers.town: 2020-06-22 Mon 13:44

Oh hey, Safari 14 will support WebP. Cool. There’s my question answered.

Eight hours of sleep?! How bizarre.

Woke up, wished my mom a happy father’s day, took care of the dogs.

Time to get back to Marie-Kondoing my hard drive.

hackers.town: 2020-06-21 Sun 13:31

I sure hope I did that right.

Oh well. One way or another, I’ve freed up 30GB and counting on my hard drive.

They’re only supposed to go where they’re invited, but they think they’re invited everywhere.

You can always spot them by the teeth. Too many. Too straight.

You just know when they get bit by zombies they won’t tell anyone.

Just playing with a 1GB SQLite db no big deal.

@sohkamyung Hopefully it doesn’t come up! I prefer more than three characters for my filenames anyways.

hackers.town: 2020-06-19 Fri 06:50

@sohkamyung Yes! Up to yesterday, all my Windows-side git interaction was in WSL.

What a beautiful day. Sun shining, birds singing, dogs barking, children screaming, somebody’s tires squealing as they push a car through several minutes of donuts in a nearby parking lot.

Noticeably fewer folks in masks at the grocery store lately. Still the majority, but 65-75% instead of 75-85%.

Just enough to worry me.

hackers.town: 2020-06-18 Thu 20:05

When I see someone without a mask out in some crowded space, first thing I wonder is who they want dead.

Sick mother in law? Immunocompromised coworker? That neighbor who’s getting over cancer? I know: too many kids in your house, right?
