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 finally gave in and tried #factorio.
Hopefully this won't be a repeat of when I found OpenTTD.
@icedquinn This is why we just run window managers and don't use file managers, everything more complex then that kind of setup is usually broken.

Fun fact: the mutineer site attempting a hostile takeover of the GNU project is using a Linode IP address. The *real* gnu.org runs on libreboot D16 hardware.
IP block: 172.105.0.0/19, AS63949 Linode, LLC
https://ipinfo.io/AS63949/172.105.0.0/19
Linode is a non-free VPS hosting provider. You need non-free javascript to use the control panel!
I'm making a site (on libreboot server!) to warn people.
They failed to remove RMS from FSF. Now they're after GNU. If you see their site: it is *NOT* the GNU project.
@rune I wonder if part of that is because browsers that most sites work well with are harder to hack on.
@icedquinn I saw that thread and this was my first thought.
@jbauer Shared secret auth is actually an issue if you have multiple machines and multiple people.
If it's just you and your one linode box then you can get away with it.

@icedquinn but wait, they didn't build the roads (bostan yadayada properterieys or whatever did that here) they built the metro eh!
the conservitives freak out in the woods (my parents live therer; in the tree farms in the woods) but we have the metro here. It;s nice and I don't have to drive my car
If my girlfriend left me she could walk 5 minutes north and be on her own wandering the us.so could I if I abandon the internet.
it's hard putting it all together. I wish it was all in my head but the world is complex.
@primalhaze@m.cmx.im I'm drunk and lost that's what eh?
@primalhaze@m.cmx.im My girl is in my bed on her phone and I'm at my workbench drinking vodka

Have you seen this person? She is wanted in 19 states for illegal fan art of your favourite animes. If you see her, please do not approach her as she is armed with a graded pencil set and she may attempt to draw the world around her.
@jbauer ;-: is it only the old people who can get laid whenever so easily?
you make me so sad.
Perhaps growing old does not mean dying but it does mean abandoning the vigor of the teenager.
@MrSkweeze eeeeyyyyyyy
go to /g/ and /prog/
