She/her :blobcatheartlesbian: ex-software dev now writing words for money, fun, and/or survival. I like new people but may be too busy to follow back.

Republicans have campaigned on killing me and mine my whole life, so "Democrats are just as bad" crap gets a fuck off and an unfollow.

I write long-form on my Federated blog at @solarbird. If you want to support me or this instance, have my patreon: http://patreon.com/solarbird

The one thing I kinda miss from Twitter is that thing where you'd yell about the poor service of Kaiser Permanente or something, and @ KaiserHelpRep would show up in your mentions because they didn't like seeing their name rightly dragged through the mud by accounts with a hundred thousand followers. That was kinda fun.

@foone I am some genuinely epic fights - sometimes pleasantly public - with Comcast Business over there. Holy shit.

But yeah. I've thought about this myself. That's the one thing.

The problem with being a weird geek like me is that I've seen the coolest thing I've seen in years and it's a DIY pie launcher

Copying a megabyte of files onto an eeprom takes a while. Maybe next time I should bring a USB flash drive that isn't a joke

The worst part about repairing a dryer over several days is that by the time you're finally able to put it back together, you have no idea where the SCSI cable went.
Gotta check all the DIY repair YouTube videos to see where this came from.

@foone is it from the dryer or did you just leave a SCSI cable in your pockets again?

I should be able to charge my phone over PoE from my laptop. I don't know why it would have this feature, but it should

@foone how many USB ports and do they have independent power output

there was a device made for a little while by a few different makers that would pool power from across multiple USB ports to provide for higher-power devices.

this is not a good idea, but it is arguably an idea.

@foone I've got one of those! I like it! I was thinking of getting a second one for six pedals and that'd get you six - 3 left foot 3 right foot, is that less confusing?

the real reason we moved away from them is that IBM never managed to invent an RW variant of the punchcard. They were only Punchcard-Rs

@foone what I hear is nanoraptor needs to make an IBM card depuncher unit someday
