Email mastodon+swiley@swiley.net (this makes all of my computers beep and turn on an indicator light and is always the fastest way to reach me.) I was on octodon a while ago but abandoned my account. I've never been a member of gab or parlor.
If you’d like to learn to program I would consider the SICP [1] more or less the peak of American CS pedagogy (at least as far as beginners go) along with “The Practice of Programming” once you get through that.
I play ukulele, I’m ok at reading music and decent at improv. I learned from Walter Piston’s “Harmony” and some of Adam Neely’s videos.
My main phone is a pine phone so if I don’t pick up when you call the battery is probably dead, the modem is probably dead, or I’m currently swearing at calls/pulseaudio/alsa. I’d strongly recommend sending an email instead.
Dispite what my web page says I’ve stopped uploading my scratch projects to GitHub once I started to understand the basics of collaboration with git. I was using the flamegraph as gamification/motivation but it doesn’t work as well with feature branch/squash merge workflows so I just keep most things on my VPS until I’m happy with publishing updates.

I'm not a fan of Faux News...
But I am a fan of Tucker Carlson.
He is the most intrepid, honest, and hard working investigator/reporter/
commentator available in our mainstream news.
I appreciate the work he does... don't always agree with him... but damn it... he does good work.
Prayers out to Tucker Carlson while he recovers from his sudden back surgery.
I hope he gets well real soon.
I hope we can find out what happened to him.
🙏

Buchanan: Virginia Secedes From Biden's Party
“I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.”
From that debate forward, his poll numbers steadily sank until McAuliffe lost his lead, and with it, the election.
And going down to defeat, McAuliffe dragged with him his fellow Democratic candidates for lieutenant governor and attorney general and watched Virginia’s House of Delegates revert to Republican rule.

“OSHA's regulatory authority is limited to workplaces. A risk that is diffuse and beyond the workplace in at least equal quality and severity is beyond their mandate”
“OSHA is required to back up their findings and claims with actual science. They can't. Specifically there is no evidence that being jabbed is superior to being infected -- in fact, its the other way around. “

@NurseRatched Regardless of who owns them electronic voting is bad.
It's not Dominion. It's electronic voting. If you go after the company without addressing the fundamental problem you'll just get the same problems again.

sometimes, when you take a screenshot in gnome3 (in this case, while a drop down menu was open), it crashes the wm and you can't click on other windows or resize them
