I think I'm gonna make a bot that posts terms of service snippets where the ToS fucks the consumer.

Okay, so for some reason my head decided to bring up the topic of synthesia.

What colours do you see for the letters A, B and C?

If your answer is red, blue and yellow... same!

And I thought, "But wait, I grew up associating those colours! People are born with synthesia, but by definition this is synthesia, right? I associate History class with green because my History book was green. Can synthesia be learned by everyday people?"

@writeblankspace To "experience" it, I don't think so. But neurotypical folk (like myself) can make an association if we try.

Colour purple can be for number 8 if I want, but I can't explain it

Pico handles emojis a little oddly ๐Ÿค” Seems like it has trouble keeping the space between it and the next character. At least in version 5.09

brandon,
@brandon@fosstodon.org avatar

Same thing for nano ๐Ÿค” I suspect it has something to do with how the emojis might not be monospace, or are monospace but are also combined emojis to make one

@Mehrad @kai I usually use VSCode or Obsidian for any sort of text editing, be it a document or code

@Mehrad @kai Unless it's something quick, then nano or vim, depending on the phase of the moon and alignment of the planets (I choose randomly, not sure why)

Well fuck. Upgrading from 20.04 to 22.04 and I ran into a full disk :S

brandon,
@brandon@fosstodon.org avatar

9.6GB, called it.

Although surprisingly, @kai I also found 2.4GB of logs from NETDATA

@kai I like to live dangerously, spicy upgrade :D
