Orbituary

I’d love them to take a knee at the anthem. I hope someone or many do.

Cowards.

I read this in Aussie.

Joking aside, I made a curtain thing for my Delica based on the Aztec tent. Great in snow.

You mean Aztec Junior.

We got angry when Japan did this in the 60s and 70s. I’m going to paste part of the opening from Neal Stephenson’s “Snow Crash.”

Why is the Deliverator so equipped? Because people rely on him. He is a roll model. This is America. People do whatever the fuck they feel like doing, you got a problem with that? Because they have a right to. And because they have guns and no one can fucking stop them. As a result, this country has one of the worst economies in the world. When it gets down to it – talking trade balances here – once we’ve brain-drained all our technology into other countries, once things have evened out, they 're making cars in Bolivia and microwave ovens in Tadzhikistan and selling them here – once our edge in natural resources has been made irrelevant by giant Hong Kong ships and dirigibles that can ship North Dakota all the way to New Zealand for a nickel – once the Invisible Hand has taken all those historical inequities and smeared them out into a broad global layer of what a Pakistani brickmaker would consider to be prosperity – y’know what? There’s only four things we do better than anyone else

• music
• movies
• microcode (software)
• high-speed pizza delivery

The Deliverator used to make software. Still does, sometimes. But if life were a mellow elementary school run by well-meaning education Ph.D.s, the Deliverator ’ s report card would say: “Hiro is so bright and creative but needs to work harder on his cooperation skills.”

We’re about to from bad to worse. 2025 is the year Palestine is fully erased.

I hate this time line.

Remember when Howard Dean later colluded with Clinton, Wasserman-Schultz, Donna Brazil, and the DNC to say how awful Bernie was?

I distinctly remember an interview on NPR where he basically said Bernie was garbage. It made me sick to think that I went knocking on doors for the Dean Campaign.

Fuck 2016. It was the year I changed my alignment to the DSA.

Nginx Proxy Manager + LetsEncrypt.

Getting your ideas from Elon I see.

Why do people ask questions like this? Isn’t, “Which worthwhile FOSS projects are underfunded?” a better way to say it?

It’s just so kludgy.

This is me.

Yeah. No ads on my regular stuff. My PS4, which I stream with, still gets ads.

Do I need to type it again? Crying on the inside is, by definition, not “showing it.”

Tell me how to cry on the inside and show it?

Everyone forgets by spring. Don’t hold your breath.

We? What can “we” do about it?

I can’t tell if this is a paid-for article by OpenNebula or what. It reads that way.

“Lose.”

Loose is for morals and stool, such as in the outgoing and incoming presidents.

Self hosting? I just grabbed Element X Matrix client from F-Droid. I run a TrueNAS setup at home. I like this idea and will be researching it over the next few days.
