Pledged for the #KeyboardIO Atreus Kickstarter, of course.

@thegibson work laptop plugged into the left screen while I fiddle with Windows partition of tower on the right screen.

@yukiame @thegibson Linux already has the main partition. This is just so I can exist in the same world as clients every once in a while.

Wait, hey #GenX kids. No. Our chance to shine is not to just to show how good we are at social distancing.

It’s also to remember how alone we felt sometimes, and to be there in channels to be supportive when other folks start to feel that void gnawing.

starting to think “reinstall operating systems” is one of my self-soothing strategies

me, about twenty seconds ago: “Oh, That’s why people have been tweeting about bidets. Took me a while to catch up.”

Lot of nervous energy when I’m actually standing at my standing desk for 4-5 hours before I need to sit.

The site build that took 7s in Linux takes 17s in Windows. I probably want to adjust that before it gets worse.
