i started in january of this year because i upgraded my wife’s computer. that gave me an old computer to tinker with.

i recommend getting an old computer, installing an OS (look up thinks like truenas, proxmox, unraid… there are more and they are different; try them all out if you want to see what you like)

then go onto youtube and search for things like “<OS> beginner” and you will get a bunch of tips/tricks/tutorials/etc. for starting out with your favorite.

i havent had the chance to try stoat yet because most of my friends refuse to leave discord, but i heard of Stoat (used to he called Revolt, but i think there was a trademark conflict) a while back and have wanted to try it out.

for beibg terrible, texas no longer has the privledge of cell phones.

its an enum; write the whole fucking thing, please.

forgot to set CONSTANTS.GRAVITY as const. tech debt - bottom of backlog.

watching it mansplain to itself why it was wrong is quite the amusement.

rust is more proprietary than linus.

just old enough to have a vga port. perfect; pick it here before it grows any further and no longer supports every server ever made.

i think i am old. i grew up using DOS, and really hated spaces in filenames and folders because they appreared truncated at the first space with a tilde and index of that file/folder representation.

ex: C:\folder name is bad\ == C:\folder~1

i hated that so much that when i got to windows 3.1 i refrained from using spaces (some command line was still necessary in w3.1)

i have jept that habit through the years, so when i moved from windoes to linux, my natural instincts of snake_case_folder_names made it so i didnt have to change : D

oh, ty. <3

im a bit ignorant here - what do you mean by “bind?”

i can imagine the unimportant meetings that werent part of the show… you know like routine runs.

“i am captain jean luc picard of the USS Enterprise. to my right is my number one, commander riker. to my front left is my number two, lieutenant commander data… as opposed to this random lady sitting next to me who has nothing to do with leadership on the bridge.”

i am a very late bloomer to ST. i watches TOS and loved it; i startrd up TNG about a month ago.

im in season 3 episode 4 and councillor troy hasnt died yet. i hate her with a fiery passion for ruining what seems to be a really good show. my friends have confirmed she doesnt die and told me to leave TNG behind and move on to DS9.

i guess i get DS9 tomorrow.

running a jellyfin server on something like this may not be pleasant, so it depends on what you are trying to do with this machine.

for most things, yeah - it will be fine; however, if you are planning to do live transcoding, running an llm, or other compute-heavy tasks, the box will need to be upgraded.

(i am old) both my brother and i were number 00 in our younger hockey years. we were goalies, so we got first pick of numbers on all new teams we played on, heheheh.

boo!

edit: i guess my tilde shows up as a tick. welp… time to die in cringe of myself.
