Q: when will spotlight learn that when I type "fi" i probably mean "firefox," not "finder?" A: never. it hasn't learned and it never will. You know what did learn? Quicksilver, which apple implemented poorly a dozen or more years ago and then never improved.

using googles internal linux distro at work was rad for that reason. somebody else maintained all the vim stuff - ycm, code style conformance, etc - there was a whole team dedicated to the distro, if hardware was fucky it was an IT helpdesk problem, not an achmed problem. that poo poo was dope. all the benefits of linux with almost none of the drawbacks i did still have to patch and recompile pulseaudio or something to get a non lovely bluetooth audio codec, though, and bt audio never worked right with anything other than the google-provided headset (which tbh was fine but i wanted to use my own stuff). and that's why my work machine at home is a macbook pro

If you want me to spend some of that effort on learning your new bullshit, you will have to make a better case for it other than it ticks a checkbox on some document you signed off on two years ago.

I- I pulled the plug on my computer. feel like poo poo right now. I'm trying to think of the good times but i just keep coming back to our final, painful moments together. Her fans were so clogged with dust she could barely breathe. She was struggling to boot and I could hear her hard drive clicking and something just came over me. I just kept saying "its OK" over and over with my hand on the cord until I finally worked up the courage to pull it. watched her RGB fade to black and then... She was gone. Just doesn't feel real man

i, too, no longer find joy in working with tech. that said, i'm terrified of being automated out of the job, or being laid off simply by the promise of automation, as my decade+ of computer touching has made me soft. also, linux is great for personal computing. completely needs suiting. doesn't infantalize, upsell, or stalk me. ty for existing, linux.

While I'm not excited by tech anymore, I do still like to build things. Like I'm not excited of writing c++ code for the sake of it, but I'm happy if I feel that it helps our game be a good game

i don’t really regret anything, except maybe i wish i had had sex with more and different types of people when i was younger also there’s a lot of interactions i wish i could redo with my current level of anxiety (low) and self-assurance (high) versus when I was young and a nervous wreck
