I really feels like casting spells that slowly drive mortals insane. The first time it's like "Yeah just install all these things and it's fine", but the second you try to reproduce an older build rather than the latest version it's like "Welcome to the depths of hell, your soul is now forfeit". Similar when trying to add or change a dependency.

i was wondering if sales of Luigi's Mansion will tick up for the end of the year because of recent events, and then i realized i could just start saying that online people would accept it on vibe alone.
so all you have to do is remember that sales for games in the Luigi's Mansion franchise bumped up 45% heading into this holiday season. let that rattle around in the ol' brain barrel. don't even worry about where you heard that -- you "read it somewhere." thats good enough.
Praying to the Web Browser gods (re-downloading chromium over and over trying to get my build tools and versions to work)
Gotta wait for this 100 GB of source code and dependencies to download and get processed. Then if I'm lucky I get to wait 10 hours for it to compile.
For anyone curious, here's the code. It uses the new "Node SEA" method for single executible binaries but with some hacks to get native modules bundled statically and getting it to work with #hypercore This will be the foundation of the new version of HyperGodot.

I described it to my non techie friends as "I ripped out wherre it'd normally connect to it's organs but instead placed them in an external box. Now I'm going to make them create the box and hook up the organs as the program wakes up"
Just committed necromancy to hijack the build process of a bunch of node modules in order to make "single executable applications" with native dependencies possible.

moderation by deed vs ethos
fedi moderates by ethos, and while fedi sucks for lots of reasons, this is not one of them. i don't see anyone within six degrees of singal because we ice them the moment they touch any one of us, sometimes many degrees out. i don't see nazi instances because they only have to be seen once to get iced.

Thankful for the endless patience of my loved ones because I tend to speak in riddles for no discernable reason (high conpression ratio)

you might think, can UBI abolish poverty? unless you institute strict price controls on survival goods, profiteers will simply raise prices to absorb UBI. the profiteer must be stripped of all power in this domain, so that survival can never be withheld. and once you have all those price controls, you will realize it is better to organize essential logistics without price as a guiding principle. abolish starvation with free food — how obvious
Amazing digital circus spoilers
Damn they really nailed the feeling of dispair working fast food 🥲
Honestly I'm pretty happy with how this went. I think I covered a lot of ground

Also, here's a recording of the talk I did at their last conference (used to be called Bloom) on #p2p and #decentralized web apps.

I get into the weeds on #IPFS and #BitTorrent and how this technology works under the hood.
Really excited to get into using this EEG for stuff. Might just start by using the gyroscope for somethin or other.
The only thing I like more than weird shaped computers is weird shaped input devices 🥰
8. This funky bluetooth mouse that's made to be thumb controlled.

My hand pain has been really bad lately and this could make it easier to use my phone. A bit more pricay than I usually risk on bluetooth stuff tho.
Human interaction is so much more complicated than information system design and programming. I feel like Bunny The Dog sometimes out here conpared to the ease with which I can dig into an applications data flow. 🤪
