Just published a new module for doing signed HTTP requests for #ActivityPub in #JavaScript for #NodeJS

This wraps over the `fetch` API that's typically used in browsers but is now available in node.

Wish I had more time to invest into fixing the tools I depend on. Every feature is a thing that can break and a workflow that might need to be adjusted.

Still worth it to not have to jump between a bunch of apps and "slack workspaces" to get my work done. :P

And of course it *had* to clear all my settings again. 🙃

Ugh the Element Matrix client is so annoying. It randomly freezes up and starts eating all my CPU and freezing my render thread and then has the gall of corrupting it's state and needing me to do a full sync again. (which takes tens of minutes because it wants to load every single message/user/room or something.

Uuugh, colds suck. Had to cancel all my plans this week cause I don't wanna infect people.

Itching for an excuse to use a quadkey index.

Fun fact, I am young enough that homestuck was a formative experience in that it got me more into programming. 😅

As a profesional todo list (with extra steps) maker this is a useful development for me 😎👉👉

It's amazing how much money companies have managed to make from glorified todolist / blog post viewers when that is such a miniscule part of what computers can do.

Watching Hackers with my partner finally. God I love this movie.

Fug, I think I am a cranky old fart type already because I like to write code closer to the metal instead of using all the fancy new tooling.

Maybe I should swallow my pride and install vscode and try copilot or whatever it is kids these days are using.

Also I'm still using nano for all my text editing so I might be imposing a deeper limitation on myself than most minimalists. :P

Kinda wild that after years of people being stuck in zoom calls we still need to constantly be like "Can you hear me now?" or "Oh, you're muted" or folks leaving their mic on while loudly typing.

I am guilty of all these things, FWIW. >:P
