I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the Trump administration using Linux

What distro are they even using?

I ordered a StarFighter from StarLabs back in June because it looked like the perfect machine

Delivery initially was end of August but it's now end of December and it's still delayed. Apparently, in production.

There are updates but, fuck, it's hard not to start feeling dread around it now

Just a heads up: if you like Oasis, fuck you. You're wrong and your music taste is poorly calibrated.

Bottom line, this is something I will not shift on.

This is awesome, thanks for the response!

Everything makes sense and it's definitely more down to usage intention over implementation, which is why I'm excited to see where Tempest goes

Plus, Starless is only like a 20 hour project so far, lots more to be done ✨

@brendt.bsky.social, pls don't hate me for doing Tempest wrong 🥲

Starless Entries from the dark side of engineering

I have built a thing in Tempest because I wanted to give it a whirl

starle.sh

If you _really_ want to see it, the source is up on GitHub:
github.com/Vyygir/starl...

(pls no bully)

Digital ID alternative proposal: GitHub commit history

It makes just as much sense so why the fuck not?

But did you know his dad was a toolmaker?

Straight up my first time trying Void and it's just shoved me into a "hey install a thing and configure it" ecosystem which is kinda cool

Remembered I have an old shitty Lenovo laptop so... bit the bullet, installed Void Linux with Sway and spent a few hours configuring it

I am a the happy 🐧

Not done-done yet but it's a start. Still need to sort out audio, couple more waybar elements, and install a browser lmao

Like... ugh, Ubuntu. I can de-bloat it I guess. But PPAs. And old packages.

Bazzite is kinda slick. But I have a whole new rack mount AMD system planned for 2026 to ditch Windows.

My brain is just screaming void+Wayland+sway at me.

I dunno what OS to use for my new laptop

aka I want to use Void Linux but I'm not confident enough in my own abilities

aka partition tables are scary and they're going to get you

aka Mac Kills His Dad

...

That last one is an IASIP title card but funny so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yes. Book out of book. Would book again.

(I like it. I would recommend this.)

The WP REST API fucking sucks

Objectively though, like, it's bad. And WP's lack of real documentation anymore doesn't help.

Can we not just fucking drag it into the modern era at this point? Oh, wait, that'd be a whole ass rewrite.

Paperback bought 📖

What? I like holding a book, so sue me

lunar looks like a bat

I *like* PHP, don't get me wrong

But I feel like, every time I go to do something in PHP that I can do in like.. C++ or something, it's just inherently not as good as an experience

I think I'm just at a point where C++ is still a bit scary but I've used it enough to love the flexibility lol

React Native solely because I can use React and JSX

I have one of the original Firefox red panda plush merch things from like 14 years ago

THEY ARE A NECESSITY

I didn't want to drop any mics like, at all, but now I do

10/10 cat, would cat again

You say this but Mapbox has caused me so much pain at work in the past 5 days alone as a global search alternative that we literally might just have to use Google's Geocoding APIs

Someone *please* just fucking do better than Google

PLEASE

Build a plane RIGHT now. It's hard, right?

Now build a rocke--NO, ELON, NOT YOU

You're just not hyping red pandas enough

I am a daily FF user and just... MORE red pandas. Always. Forever.

beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

So now I'm like... fully vibing with the X7 Pro

Can I switch my main number to it though?

NO because my phone provider fucked up, wiped the eSIM in my old phone, and the one they sent out is lost in the void of the postal delivery system, so I have been unreachable by phone for 3 days

Also I bought a hub for the Steam Deck 'cause emulating whilst dead on a sofa sounds fucking amazing right about now

You know what? 3 days with this X7 and I'm pretty happy. Fuck iPhones now, mid-range Android was so the play.
