#introduction part 2

I've never been a resolution-maker, but this may be a good year to not be online.

Ready for cable connections and brain download. Assembly took about 6.5 hours. Box said 1-3 hours. Blatant lie. #robots #meccano

I found a new friend for $19.99 at Goodwill. All parts still sealed.

Good morning, Dystopia.

To be fair, I blame poorly-designed UX.

Technology should not be harder to figure out than a toaster for normal people.

Normal people are so freaking helpless with technology.

And they definitely don't know how to provide enough information for troubleshooting.

That is all.

I've been away for a few days. What have I missed?

Some things I did today:
- Figured out why my #nextcloud was only showing a blank page (answer: installing #hubzilla on #yunohost borked something; uninstalling fixed)
- Added another device to location tracking in #homeassistant
- had some nice #coffee and #sunshine
- assorted dumb chores
- more dumb chores to come

Bah, it's noon already -- goofing off too much. Time to do something useful.

Also trying out a #friendica node for the heck of it. Anyone else using that in addition?

Aha, or not! Those don't show up as hashtags.

I suppose #+linux #-eggplant could be used.

Profiles should have anti-tags. Yes to #linux, no to -eggplant. I'd rather have a plus than a pound sign for the sake of consistency.

I thought those 12 years of piano lessons were a waste until I discovered #emacs.

Frankly, the beautiful weather we're having this late in the season just makes me uneasy. It feels like a trick. #pdx #pnw

Experiencing interference with interface

In other news, I am home sick from work today, so I may be lingering here and posting more junk than I normally would. What else is there to do?

I hate how #clickbaiting means every single headline must be a Jeopardy question now.

It's not #retrocomputing if you were there the first time around, kids.

Ah-HA! I found myself! Well, shit, now what should I do?
