visions of bug...

foolish catte @kim tried to ddos this 1-core 1gb ram server and *failed*, i am standing atop my mountain laughing like a dwarven god

i read a thing recently that blew my mind a little.
went something like:

people can imagine time travel to the past and one little act making massive differences in the timeline

but in their present they think even the greatest effort they can put in will not make any difference to the future

Repost from Twitter:

Hello friendos! I would like to go home for Christmas this year to see my family since I haven’t been home in four years. I was wondering that if I were to set up commissions then would anyone be interested? ;;

You can float through my tag #alroeart to see what I have done. o/

Morning folks! I'm trying to recommend a suitable instance for a friend who's into videogame music composing.

Does anyone know any friendly instances that would suit them? (Small to medium-sized would be fine.)

Boosts & suggestions appreciated!

I'm happy to introduce our new ultra-low tech CMS for smol, accessible websites. The goal was to make something that could be self-hosted, but friendly enough for people who don't SFTP or use a terminal. 3 PHP files, Apache, and Gemtext. Should work on any dumb old Apache host; a technical person could manage many of these for friends and family with zero maintenance. Happy to answer any questions or take bug reports.

A paraphrased life tip I read elsewhere recently: You can possibly get away with being a criminal and you can possibly get away with being an asshole, but in very few situations can you get away with being both.

I think that's my interpersonal praxis. Try to be the person that, if I have to start throwing bricks, still no one wants to snitch on.

Might not be possible depending on why I start throwing bricks, but worth trying.

i'm being followed by a bunch of brats

This was posted as "a guy from Slovakia asks questions about US suburban neighborhoods" and the questions themselves are pretty good regardless of who wrote them, but the insecure reactions from US residents were even better

As she made her way to the greenhouse, poppies and peonies turned their heads to follow her.

Inside, succulent plantlings unpotted themselves and tottered over on mobile roots to crowd around her legs.

'What's got you all worked up?'

A plantling gestured with a root toward the nursery tray. She picked up a little eggcup planter where a tiny seedling had just sprouted.

'Welcome,' she said. She touched it with a gentle finger and it curled its leaf around the tip.

Howling.
