 remote jobs are less common these days because they're realizing which parts
 can be either automated or are extraneous.
 
 the entire capitalist machine runs on like, 50,000% more labor than it needs.
 It's not that complicated, it's not very revolutionary, just a lot of
 duplicated effort and meaningless communicational transactions.
 
 I'm kind of glad they're getting rid of all the jobs. Maybe it'll free up
 people to do something productive, for once, if only we had the capital to
 start.

 enough not to hear more than 5 feet away) or switch tasks suddenly there's a

 do you ever think up ideas and then dismiss them because they're too massive in
 scale? Not mechanical complexity, but like... you'd need 128gb of ram to run
 them or something like that

 my favorite position is doggy style because *of course* I want to be
 mounted like that drive you keep forgetting to add to your fstab
 
 *you're supposed to gesture at "the bond between a man and his horse" or
 something to that effect*
 
 men shouldn't fuck horses just saying
 
 first of all the horse would fucking kick them in the balls or break their knees
 
 second they're way too tall so you'd have to find a stool and that's just like
 a lot of effort
 
 third like... no thank you please, get out of my head stupid thoughts I want to
 think about being degraded and horses are too noble for degradation
 
 *what the fuck are you even talking about*
 
 ... yeah. sometimes it do be like that tho...
 
 "I came here for kink and horny but I left with confusion"

 learning a new skill?
 reaching out to an old friend?
 visiting someplace new?
 trying a new recipe?
 watching something from your backlist?
 
 ... surely not *working*, or doing the thing that you're
 *supposed* to be doing, that would just be *productive* after
 all

 maybe you can schedule them to be picked up, I know that's a thing sometimes,
 and maybe that 5-10$ pickup fee would be better than hauling yourself up and to
 the post-office...!

 It depends on the size of the file, copying a thousand lines of config file
 probably isn't that big of a deal, but copying a million lines in a log file
 just to pass it as an argument to... pad it to the left, or whatever, that'll
 DEFINITELY slow down your execution speed!
 
 Much better to pass by reference, usually...

 cool! my tip is to walk down the aisles and look at at least one book per aisle
 - whichever you feel called to, don't question it too much. Then just grab
 whichever one you're most interested in learning more about and *BOOK
 IT* out of the store before they can tackle you to the ground while
 yelling "STOP THIEF"
 
 if you're lucky there'll be an old grandma in the background crying and maybe a
 kid saying "mommy why are they tackling that poor person" and the mom will say
 "hush now this kind of thing happens, say would you like some icecream?" and
 before you know it they're down the street and out of earshot just as the
 handcuffs clink into place. Unfortunately you'll forever be banned from that
 bookstore and you'll never know what secrets were held within those pages, but
 at least you'll have some shiny new bracelets, if only for a time.

 low key kinda surprised they haven't made an animated robot friend that
 narrates whatever chatGPT says in a back-and-forth conversation.
 
 though I kinda get why, because setting up the context is the expensive part
 and generating 100 words and generating 1000 words is basically the same
 computationally.
 
 somehow, that doesn't feel very human. Maybe, just maybe, LLMs aren't
 intelligent?

 Phew got SSH working! Turns out it was the fact that the authentication key was
 owned by root instead of ritz. Doh, how could I forget the thing that wasn't
 mentioned anywhere in my search queries.
 
 *you didn't search query, you used chatGPT, which is why you were stuck for
 so long*
 
 haha oh yeah
 
 ... now I should fix my obs, it won't record video for some reason.

 there's something kinda... liberating about working with computers at work.
 
 you always know that worst case scenario, even if you totally fuck up the
 system configuration, you can always reimage the machine.
 
 so... who cares! if you can't get something working, just fucking try shit
 until it works. Whack it with a software hammer. See what happens.
