- they/them, he/him, whatever, it's not like I have any idea either 🙃
Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

(Previously: the PLA-in-teabags stuff, them seemingly having removed ceylon from the Yellow Label tea, the supposedly 'forest fruit' tea actually being red fruit and the forest fruit apparently not being available anymore, the earl grey being bitter garbage, the orange tea no longer tasting like it used to...)

why must partition labels and filesystem labels be seperate
I have to say, Pewdiepie's video on Linux was... a lot better than I had expected.

i need advertisers to understand that putting an asterisk on a claim looks so insanely suspicious that they would've been better off not making the claim
@eta (And I see it more as "attaching consequences to choices" than as "violence", exactly, even though the mechanisms are similar)

Me Thurs:
Ug I am so burned out, I'm going on brain rest for a month!
Me Fri:
*does a bunch of stuff anyway*
Me Sat:
Ug why am I still so tired!?
@eta I mostly hate that it's necessary, but I'm happy to at least have a tool that works without requiring too many spoons from my side 😐
@eta Although the issue is less prevalent in NL, it does happen here as well, and I've taken to just deliberately interpreting what people say literally and applying it in such a way that it would get awkward *for them* if they didn't actually mean it.
It seems to get the point across pretty well most of the time...

to be honest a solid 80% of my problems socializing are due to this. even when around people who say what they mean I just do not believe them

i think it is high time that the fosstodon owner hand over ownership to someone with some awareness of the world we live in beyond the white male cishet paradigm.
seriously. this is like the third time in a year or so that they've displayed a disdain for anyone not like them. foh dude.

Here’s the one thing doctors genuinely don’t tell you about transition:
It’s worth it. It’s so fucking worth it. And statistically if you want to do it, it has the lowest regret rate of almost any medical change.
Yes. Even now. Even when it’s scarier than it’s been in decades.
It’s still worth it

In fairness, this is the now-in-the-garage cabinet unit that used to be part of the house, and about which the landlord rep commented (5 years ago!) "I'm surprised it hasn't fallen apart yet, I think you're the only one with one of these that's still intact"
@babe After recovering from my transplantation, I've gotten a lot of energy back, and I've been whirlwinding through the house several weeks now, catching up on years of maintenance and also redoing my entire garden to grow vegetables!

So this was fantastic last time I asked: Tell me something good that's happened recently, something that made you smile.
It can be as big as earning a degree or as small as meeting an adorable cat. Let's hear a little bit of positive that's going on in our lives!

Being a software professional at the moment's a bit like being a doctor in a time when every hospital administrator believes the X--Ray specs they advertise in the back of newspapers actually work.

"In 1743 opende Jacob Hooy een kruidenkraam op de Amsterdamse Nieuwmarkt. Hier begon, met de verkoop van kruiden en specerijen, de rijke historie van het bedrijf. En aan de firma kleeft niet alleen historie, maar ook een brok nostalgie. Nostalgie vooral naar het oude en vertrouwde handelen in kruiden."

Lovely. Measuring a cabinet and finding that its depth varies by several centimeters depending on where you measure...
