Developing thought: highly "successful" people who thrive in a dysfunctional society would be sociopaths & psychopaths in a fully-functional society.

In other news, I think I'm going to be able to make a delightfully silly cyberdeck thing with this old kid's toy. The black square is a full 720x720 display that entirely fits within the "screen" recess, and still leave room for the punch cards to be inserted behind it. Originally those determined which of 64 different sequences the buttons had to be pushed in, to teach counting or words or whatever the card had printed on it. In mine, that will be what accesses different modes. Want to see the weather report? Insert the weather report card. I think it might actually be an interesting experiment in a more deliberate, intentional form of mobile computing.

A 720p YouTube video is fine for most people's needs when watching it in browser within the page. 1080p is top limit for me for full screen and looking nice, everything beyond that is just pointless juice.

It has taken way longer than we hoped, but we now have our own instance. I have just finished migrating my account so I would appreciate it if you could boost this post so our little instance gets noticed by a bunch of servers. Here's a picture of my cats Huginn and Muninn so I am at least adding something to the fediverse instead of just asking for something.

I plugged this in for a soak test a week ago and forgot about it, so I guess it's soaked.

The UI is randomly generated, and I love what it came up with here.

It’s a threshold for bullshit issue.

Sure I’ll ask it to do some pretty off-piste things at times… but I won’t complain about those.

Second, I won’t be quiet because this is an enormous accessibility issue. If we want to get more people on Linux/OtherOS then we really need to smooth these obstacles out.

Nobody should need to do open heart surgery on their OS to make it work for them.

Before anyone comes at me for complaining about my Linux desktop experience you should know I’m committed to making it succeed.

I won’t, however, be quiet about all the issues I’ll inevitably have. Especially given that so many in the community talk down to others and tell us it ‘just works’ or ‘just install XYZ’, or why don’t you learn Linux bro?

My brothers in Christ, I was programming ASM before you were born, I have code literally *in* the Linux kernel and other packages. It’s not a ‘skill issue’.
