Question for #tech people. What's a good monitor with an integrated USB C hub? I need something that's ideally ultrawide with a USB c cable I can plug into my laptop for displayport / charging and some ports for USB peripherals for my mic/camera. Ideally it wouldn't bother with HDMI and use a USB C cable for charging but whatever works would work.

Boosts and links very much appreciated.

@simon That's actually amazing given the problem statement.

All software is a series of turduckens glued together with with whatever sticky substances people had on hand with various levels of staleness and mould in each layer. If you're lucky they'll be covered in a pretty layer of icing that might be nice to poke so long as you don't touch what's directly underneath.

And I love it!

Computers are fun because my current setup is Linux (wayland) -> Chromium -> Windows365 virtual computer -> Linux (ssh)

Just to run some python code 🤪

Real shit having lunch and the clouds clearing up has been great on my mental health today.

Free as in "free to choose which boot stomps on you".

@makeworld I think it's a me issue. The flavor just makes my body and mind reject whatever food it's in with disgust.

They're adding sucralose to non diet sodas now too 😭 I can't escape it

How can I get a job as a middle manager so I can just sit in on meetings and not much else 🤪

Seems I'm on course for doing about 1.5 presentations a month for this year. :P This month is going to be a presentation on local AI in #agregore Next month I'm gonna do one about the fediverse and bsky and looking at how they work / comparing the structures. Hopefully my new graph visualization thing will get far enough that I can embed some in my talks.

The "adventure mode" fighting mechanics in #dwarffortress are so intimidating. It reminds me of #Gurps or #Degenesis mechanics 😅

Spent a bit of time this weekend adapting a 3d graph visualizer to render JGF files and am working on a tool to turn abstract syntax trees into JGF files. This way I can view code as a graph and work on tools to manipulate it at the graph layer instead of just text. Gonna work on better labelling and display next week and then work on connecting between source files and highlighting node types / quick searching them

@quietmarc Literally me since I boot into a weird looking LUKS decryption prompt followed by a raw terminal I have to log into then start my desktop environment with a command 🤪

Contemplating getting myself a new input device as a gift 🥺
