The only downside is that others seem to enjoy using their computers for work on weekends and I end up missing emails sent after my work hours 💀

I really need to learn some verilog and some fortran

Mobile apps made computing worse because they renoved the "undo my press of the back button" button. Wish I could do that for instagram 😭

@arichtman It's a lil gift I'm giving to future me so it doesn't burn out as fast :P

Because poking computers is kinda fun :)

I am very strict about not using computers for work on weekends cause otherwise they would eat evrry last moment of relaxation from me.

I really dislike apps because they're so segregated compared to cli programs. When you use an app it pretends it's the only thing that exists and there's usually no way to change it that isn't a pain in the ass. Once you can do some tricks in bash yiu basically get master over the cli apps and can stay closer to organizing data how you like it. GUIs with shared fs access are nice but it's not the norm and getting alternative apps for the same function is more of a pita

@0xabad1dea is fire required or would shredding suffice?

Glad to be at the end of this big push so that I can work less nights and cook more dinners 🥰

I post like the small bits of story exposition you find in some scifi game

@metasyn Yeah I've tried it before. 😁 TBH the "modes" and all the extensions end up being more than I want to deal with. I generally prefer something as minimal as possible and since my muscle memory is geared towards GUI text editing keyboard shortcuts vim (and emacs) end up getting in the way. Defs appreciate that people enjoy their editors though.
I ended up getting nano to behave more or less like a graphical text editor which is the only reason it works for me. https://github.com/RangerMauve/nanorc

I wish the Ontario government covered "extra arms" as gender affirming healthcare for transhumanists.

I really want one of these backpack thingies hooked up to a BCI or a touchpad on my toe or whatever.

It's like using Windows but worse because I can't just sidestep into bash. Also code editing is one of my main uses of computers so it's extra annoying when my flow is interrupted.

I want to get used to using a fancy IDE like VS Code again, but I find myself jumping back into bash+nano because everything is just so much faster and more simple. I hate how many random popups and shit VS code throws in my face and how there's random keyboard shortcuts I'd never use that I end up fat-fingering. Like, I don't care if there's a new version out, don't remind me later just never talk to me again.
