What really irritates me are the arguments against federated networks that boil down to "but you need to trust some rando and you don't know their intentions" and then go on to suggest as the alternative some tech company's centralized platform instead, even though that tech company is fundamentally also just "some rando" except now it's certain that their intentions are malicious

Linux woes
KDE wayland bug where left click is stuck down in softeare regardless of what you do. Thankfully touch works, but I'd appreciate being able to use a pointer device without a reboot. What kind of weird input plumbing could even cause this? Things made sense in X11, I just don't get it anymore.
To be clear. This is super rare and I have yet to intentionally replicate it. So it isn't really actionable right now.
People genuinely care about their image unless they are being critiqued by a war reenactor larper weirdo in a costume from last century. Then they don't. Pro tip. Also lose the damn vests nobody listens to anybody in a vest without resenting it.
Highly recommend reading this story about a reporter casually finding out his wife is a world Tetris champion: https://archive.boston.com/news/globe/magazine/articles/2007/08/19/bizarro_world/

I’m still at my partners and thanks to very generous folks (and the Patreon peeps), I’m slowly recouping the costs from getting my car fixed.
But 2026 is already shaping up to be a nightmare, so I’ll def need help more than ever. I’m gonna try and do some creative stuff this year, but with my depression and chronic illness, it will be slow going.
That’s pretty much it, unless something pops up.
