Meep :3
They/Them, also “It” when a critter I like is being cute ior affectionate about it :3 Very cute, but also weird and sometimes kinda sharp
Hates this world, hates being stuck in it. Needs rescuing, needs understanding. Not happening. Only misery and extension of said misery happening.

  • Kinda annoying that “top” always means “most popular” for these things :-\ I guess I don’t really have a specific idea of what other meaning would be best but it still seems kinda ridiculous to rank programming languages by popularity. I guess it’s an engineer-brained thing to think of them as having different uses and purposes rather than being interchangeable business tools 🤮 but to me it’s kinda like looking at spoken languages by popularity but you still wanna go on vacation or go live somewhere with an unpopular native language. Like, oh look, Spanish is popular so I’ma learn that but also never go anywhere I’d expect people to speak it, so I’ll be in Finland or something (in my dreams, where I actually can visit places v.v ) all “Habla español? Perkele!” over and over until they throw me out 😅

    Edit: Just thought to check, a cursory glance suggests “español” doesn’t get capitalized in Spanish, which I don’t actually know 😅 My Finnish is much better, as I know most of the common curses and a few of the words that go between them.







  • so-called AI

    knows its own limits

    frustration noises It knows nothing! It’s not intelligent. It doesn’t understand anything. Attempts to keep those things acting within expected/desired lines fail constantly, and not always due to malice. This project’s concept reeks of laziness and trend-following. Instead of a futile effort to make a text generator reliably produce either an error or correct code, they should perhaps put that effort into writing a transpiler built on knowable, understandable rules. … Oh, and just hire a damn Rust dev. They’re climbing up the walls looking to Rust-ify everything, just let them do it.


  • My PC currently lives in an attic far from the only place they were permitted to call (or think of as) “home,” after being thrown out (twice) by “family” who swore (more than twice) they’d never do that. Hell, the parents called the copstown guard to oust said PC. Campaign’s totally off the rails and the DM I was told was going to fix everything does not appear to be present at all. I’d say… yours should protect themself first but, if they really want to, carefully consider the full context without falling prey to manipulation again.

    …Also I lied, it’s me. More of the story’s in my post history, desperately crying out for rescue. Someone even PM’d one of my hosts some lies trying to get me left on the streets of Minneapolis 🙃 The emotional damage really does help: my mental health needs being neglected left me resistant or immune to some attempts at manipulation. Obviously it’s not a good situation to be in but oh well I guess, right? Better to leave them oscillating between vicious and totally the best, sweetest, most caring parents anywhere and there’ll be problems if I don’t believe it somewhere I don’t have to deal with it. I occasionally get an email, even after all’ the BS. Why the hell (or Abyss, or Abaddon, whichever) I’d want to talk to them for anything but getting the useful things I left behind, I can’t imagine.

    grumbles noisily for a while, then wanders off having forgotten what, if anything, else it had wanted to say

    Oh, also thanks for posting this 😅 'Think I maybe forgot to mention that :-\





  • I’ma include some recent stuff to get it off’ my chest-equivalent <.< >.>

    So, eegh. I recently found out someone’s been creeping around lying about me and endangering my actual life this way. That’s pretty stressful. Also, they’ve been involved in tearing up a community I’ve been subbed to (and kindof its instance too), so that’s just (sarcastically) lovely. On the other paw, I got some blockers out of the way and may be able to get some life help soonish. I feel ill just thinking about that sort of thing (phone calls, going places) sooo… might “procrastinate” for a day or a week v.v

    [Josh and abuser who’s been targetting me, don’t read this part] Also, it friggin’ hurts to have a special kind of loneliness just festering all’ my life. I’m on some total “different wavelength” from everycritter else and will clearly never be understood and when anyone tries to help or connect with me at all they get most everything wrong, sometimes insistently so. So, people think they understand me (possibly better than I do, which is usually quite offensive) and mostly make things worse. If I tell more, they get more wrong. So I just can’t connect with anyone. Bleh.

    I’ve got a constant supply of these, though. So that’s nice, I guess 🤷 🫴 🍬 shares Jolly Ranchers

    Oh, and I’ve got nobody to talk to just in general 😅 [Sarcasm] Tons of fun. Just gotta put on some background noise (DoshDoshington doshing Factorio @.@) and try to find something distracting to play that my laptop can handle @.@

    Hmm. Fears of it being required? Irritation at it being the default? I’m sure there was something 😅 Ugh, now I’m embarrassed and feel like a fake Gentooer v.v

    Wikipedia says Funtoo doesn’t even support systemd 🤔 I guess that was it. … Kinda weird to not support it at all but whatever, I guess. Gentoo take me baaaack 🥺 … When I’ve got a system that won’t melt if I try to build anything on it 😅


  • It’s been ages but I remember Funtoo as a kinda quirky, opinionated (I think/hope that’s the right term? 😅 ) fork/offshoot of Gentoo by Gentoo’s originator that was intended to do things in ways deemed more sensible and allow more authority by the user. The only specific thing I remember is they dumped systemd or at least allowed building a system that didn’t use it.* 🤷 I only tried it once and not for long so that’s all I’ve got, sorry 😅

    * Very bad memory on my part, should probably have just said something something systemd or such 😅




  • Wow, I’d no idea it was something like that. Had assumed it was some technical direction complaint where Hyprland couldn’t go where its leadership wanted because of how wlroots was being made… nooope!

    re-rewrite Okay I’ve done more looking and according to Vaxry there are technical reasons. Just… no one’s talking about them. It’s just “ooooh 🤤 wow so impressive rewriting wlroots!” and a little bit of back-and-forth over, basically, whether Hyprland’s community is full of bigots or just likes keeping its fruit cold (see: freeze peach). Very weird situation, in terms of this news. I’d expect to see discussion of the merits of this change (which, again, Vaxry did… if you go find that blog post!). 🤷

    tl;dr: Looks like Vaxry wanted to replace wlroots for tech reasons and does not interact with hunams well. Hyprland community probably crap, probably why FreeDesktop kicked him. 🤷
