I feel like every person born before 1980 has a baby photo of them being bathed in a kitchen sink and I have a theory that most of it stopped when people got dishwashers and realized it was a much more convenient way to clean their children.

Wankpanzer! wtf!

I tried to sign up to #matrix today. The process is.. not fun. Maybe it is the web client, maybe it is the matrix, but it took multiple tries and VPN hopping due to some errors about too many requests. And when I get into it, it seems the client is not able to be opened in multiple tabs at the same time? Like, what the actual fuck. Is there some command line client that would fit both "lightweight" and "working" definitions?

I've always read that global variables are bad.

Arch Linux is a great wiki that happens to ship a distro as a side hustle.

Tabs vs Spaces

#Hiroshima #Child

I come and stand at every door
But none can hear my silent tread
I knock and yet remain unseen
For I am dead for I am dead

I’m only seven though I died
In Hiroshima long ago
I’m seven now as I was then
When children die they do not grow

My hair was scorched by swirling flame
My eyes grew dim my eyes grew blind
Death came and turned my bones to dust
And that was scattered by the wind

I need no fruit I need no rice
I need no sweets nor even bread
I ask for nothing for myself
For I am dead for I am dead

All that I need is that for peace
You fight today you fight today
So that the children of this world
Can live and grow and laugh and play

Hmmm, maybe I can move some of my shell scripts over to #Rust using #RustScript:

I initially thought about doing that with Go since Go is a bit more ergonomic for just spiffing out code IMHO, but the tooling around Rust is simply surpassing Go at an incredible pace.

I've been thinking of how to express what I think about the Burning Man situation, but this guy just did it perfectly.

Fuck Burning Man.

Well spoken! I'd elect this man. A straight talker who says what he means. I'm ready to be exploited at his whim.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am sorry to hear of your sadness over your new social media experience. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to not go viral with the same fucking drivel you posted when you had 30,000 followers.

Much forced cordiality,
H.C. Bunny

there's no reason to consider #rustlang at this point

Trying to imagine what it’s like to be Ron DeSantis and watching your opponent on his THIRD criminal indictment yet continue to lap you in the polls while you focus on critical societal issues like whether Bud Light and AP Psychology are too woke.

A genuine tragedy for this illustrious gentleman.
