So yeah maybe thereโ€™s a chance I made my pre-workout coffee this morning and forgot to put a cup under the spout. But at least I solved purple first. ๐Ÿ˜ถโ€๐ŸŒซ๏ธ

Re-watched Those Old Scientists tonight. That ep really is so fun. Caught many more references this time around too. Yay! ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿฅฐ

@gedeonm best episode of television Iโ€™ve seen in years!

Suddenly I'm wondering something.

I call disposable plastic grocery bags "Jewel bags" after the Chicagoland grocery store chain. I don't even shop there all that much these days, but any such bag is still a "Jewel bag" in my head.

Anybody else do this? Like, not Jewel specifically but your local store chain?

(Oh and, fun fact, an industry term for that kind of bag is T-shirt bag, despite it resembling a tank top if anything)

@TechConnectify Yep. My family still mostly refer to those kinds of bags as โ€œKrogerโ€ bags.

I have been having a profoundly bad week and I think the only thing that can counteract it is one of those moments like at the end of the first Digimon movie where everyone's internet friends send good vibes as a power-up so if people could spare some power-up energy for me that would be rad.

@trixter I hope things get better. In the meantime, here's a cute doggo pic that'll maybe help.

@gedeonm How is the Microsoft To Do app working for you? It looks interesting but Iโ€™m a little unsure how useful the intelligence features are in practice.

If I had a dollar for every time someone said โ€œdoes your shirt say oat milk?โ€ Iโ€™d have enough money to buy a carton of oat milk.

if you use Linux on your personal computer: what do you like about it?

I used to be super into customizing my window manager, but now I mostly like that it's so easy to install software, and that the environment is the same as on a Linux server

(please no arguing about whether people "should" use Linux on their personal computers, I'm just curious about why you personally like it)

jagreda,
@jagreda@retro.pizza avatar

@b0rk When I did (years ago) there were a few things:

  • That it could run on just about any old hardware I had laying around, so I could give my old ThinkPad a new life.
  • Customizability of the window manager to make it look and work more like my brain wanted it to.
  • Ease of installing all sorts of random software and utilities.
  • The community of folks making fun little experiments and tools that felt enriching to use.

Itโ€™s taken a few days to settle into vacation mode; trying to not let my brain wander back into work-mode now that itโ€™s Monday.

Hello folks!

I've been around the fediverse for a bit now (2018?), and have spent most of my time on cybre.space until the admin decided to close it down this year.

retro.pizza seems like a pretty cool (one might even say, rad) place to call home for now. Looking forward to meeting folks in the timeline!

I'm based in California these days, doing tech stuff for work, but love retro tech, sci-fi, music creation, tinkering, gadgets, storytelling, and video games.

Happy Posting!
