I got someone to help me with a first parts draft :)

software wise I'm thinking of
- a tiny linux install that runs KVM / autostarts virt-manager stuff
- server install
- desktop install which gets the GPU

and then when im not using it actively, suspend the desktop install so it can shut off the GPU and use less power, while still possibly using all CPU cores if needed

I hate looking at pc parts because my dum brain can only do "ooh aesthetic" and "number go big"
and wallet goes "oofe expensive"

@AbbieNormal I looked into this a while ago, kdenlive has an option to export a script for rendering, but all the files are relative paths to wherever they are on your disk, so that kinda sucks

@selea@social.linux.pizza no it'd be the opposite where I offload whatever I do on my laptop to a server.
I looked over pine's stuff before, and it all looks really nice, but really not a good price/performance ratio

I should really start to put together a powerful desktop build, that I can also use as remote computing power for my laptop on the go

but comparing part specs really sucks and also money, lole

it's that time again where I really want a pinebook

but rationally I know it's by *far* not powerful enough, current T460s is in good condition and still struggles with half my workloads

and if I'd start changing things to be lighter (offloading to a remote server for example), I could just be using my T460s with that setup...

also managed to take a nicer picture of these flowers behind a partly blown down fence

and look who I ran into again, seems we both have a love for sunny elevated spots to chill :D

reposting after @CherryKittens:
Brighten my day with the 9th picture in your camera roll. Don't explain unless I ask you to, then re-post this wording with the number I give you. Aaand go!

Use image descriptions, please!

(Also, no need to repost if you don’t want to, you can just send a picture regardless, if you want)

Port wine is reeaally nice and I discovered half a big bottle in the cellar earlier tonight uwu

and with that, good night

@stolas@elekk.xyz well the protocol wasn't no, it's based around a really nice model for completely distributed federation.
Riot as a client is definitely taking steps to make the first time user experience as nice as possible though

work musings 

and like, on one hand I kind of enjoy the challenge having to work around garbage like this,
but on the other hand I just know it's gonna bite *me* in the ass again when it inevitably breaks

and it's also just a continuous stream of challenges to solve, and workarounds for the latest problem overturning previous fixes...

Parents, Coronavirus 

@Jo same here, even some newage "yeah you feed """energy""" to whatever you talk about" bullshit, but then still going on about it herself.......

--, parents, covid 

ah yeah mom comes to talk about covid and then sort of laughs off the "our country is gonna have a big fucking problem" with "yeah fear compromises your immune system" and "muh big pharma"
