I'm back on fosstodon (https://fosstodon.org/@RL_Dane) as my primary #fediverse identity, but I check in here from time to time. Love my polymaths peeps. I'm also at https://pixelfed.social/rl_dane

I have a blog, which I'm starting to write regularly in: https://rldane.space/

NOTE: My toots are in markdown. Your client and maybe even your instance might very well mangle the format.
For best results view the post natively on this instance's web interface. Your client should give you an option to copy the post's link. I post publicly by default to make sure people using regular Mastodon or other markdown/html-stripping services can still see what I intended to write.

Changed my #OpenBSD writing-dedicated box from running #cwm to #i3wm -- I like cwm, but it's still a bit too mousey for my taste.

I also changed all of my fonts (both xterm and i3/i3status) to be bitmapped (the "fixed" font), so everything is looking REALLY crisp.

Maybe I'm getting quite crochety, but at this point, I think I'd much rather have a lower res screen with crisp bitmapped fonts than a crazy high-res screen and vector fonts.

The only thing I'm missing is #emoji. My i3status looks like
cpu 31% | load 0.80 | mem 9% | dsk 13.4% | net Gallifrey 82% | chrg 89% 0.00W | Sun 2024.05.26 06:42 AM

instead of
cpu 05% | 📈 load 0.29 |  28.5% |  disk 59.7% |  Gallifrey 67% |  Sun 2024.05.26 06:42 AM
