Oh yeah, it’s on a table, not the floor

Also most zoomers are adults now, so no

Rent, but I can’t afford to save up towards my down payment because I have to spend it on rent

People who know their shit are usually quiet and humble. People who don’t know their shit act like they know their shit

Orange juice, about tripled in price

Not really answering the whole question, but you really don’t need a lot. Currently running jellyfin, a blog and some other fun dockers on a raspberry pi (clone), with an external nas though a large USB would do. Start with just “retrieving” movies to your local disk and think what else you need.

• want to access movies between devices? Get some cheap server (I.e some second hand computer) or a NAS
• want to have some snazzy UI? Get jellyfin
• Want to be able to expand storage? Set up some raid configuration or similar.

Good story about overcomplicating things

Introduce my new dog to my neighbors dog, she is starting to calm down after moving in.

Unclear, both have held normal jobs with normal pay but there never seemed to be money over for their children. Now the brain damaged one is living of pensions and the other one is spending all their money on online gurus and shamans.

I have two great parents

My best friend has one, with the other one being an violent alcoholic

My SO has a brain damaged (literally) father and a hyper conspirational spiritual mother.

The more I learn about everyone else’s parents the more thankful I get

Usually work from home but have an old daily driver from the sixties. Love to drive to the office with a “fun” car when I want to.

I know some clients show that, but the culture here is generally quite against the concept. Tends to lead to people being scared of going against the majority and creates a hive mind mentality to keep karma high.

In Europe tho price off eggs are still stable. Even if they rise I live rural so I know some local egg producers so I’ll always have access to cheap eggs.

My local government news. Call me a sheep but since they don’t farm clicks they seem to have the most nuanced and engaging stories. For-profit news these days are just doom-posting and rage bait.

I think it’s an inherent problem with team scale. You can generally work faster when you know everyone that will use your code and you know exactly where and how it will be used. However if three thousand people will work with your code it has to be a lot more generic and water-tight. Adding more people to the team means that the rest of the team will work slower. You can’t add more people to the orchestra and have it played faster.

I’m pretty sure someone thought

Man it would be nice if horses were faster

I’d say the same is true for terminal emulators.

It would be neat if I could use tabs

Or

I wish there were better ways to render things to the terminal

At the end of the day it’s a black box where you can type commands. If thats all you need than you need anything else.

A terminal is a terminal. If there is a feature you don’t know you need then you don’t need it. Run with whatever you have

There is still a lot to learn from running arch before you try gentoo

Gentoo is basically arch but built around everything being compiled locally. There isn’t to my knowledge any “Gentoo-install”, but if you can manage to install arch manually it should be quite similar. Gentoo is a bit more complex than arch so if installing gentoo manually seems daunting I would recommend staying on arch.

“IT is mainly introverts doing mysterious stuff no one understands”

It is a very cooperative field where everyone has different roles with different responsibilities, but everyone has a vague idea what everyone else is doing. Most of the time is spent making sure everyone else can also use the systems you build, not just yourself.

They help quitting since you only have to deal with the physical act of smoking (which in of itself is a very ingrained act) without dealing with nicotine withdrawal
