attempt 2: I realized the problem was with my paint application - it wasn't
saving the high resolution image correctly. I downloaded Gimp (a free
photoshop style program) and it seems to have saved correctly this time. Oops.
Let's see if it works now.

just realized when I got disconnected it gave me a different username, so if
you've been messaging me I haven't been getting it. Ooops. relogging now to
try and fix it.

I use i3 on my laptop and dwm on my desktop. I feel like I save so much screen
real estate when using a tiling window manager. Plus it's much easier to
organize things if you want to multitask in one view.

"this program that used to work doesn't anymore because, uh, your video
drivers are out of date."
... okay but if I didn't update this program either, then why would it matter
if my video drivers are out of date? wouldn't they be working off of the same
[rulings/requirements]?
the "best practice" of updating your software all at once instead of
one-by-one is a disaster for our humankinds consequences or whatever

yeah uhhhh the one you helped me setup. The error is just "connection refused"
because it "could not write header for output file" because of incorrect input
parameters, but I don't think I changed anything since we used it a couple
weeks ago. Have you seen any errors like that?

hehe if I don't understand how it works it's difficult for me to use things.

SO MANY.
But I learned a few more lessons than that.
So... It worked out for the better, I think.

This was the first bash script I ever wrote.
It's been updated a little, it was a bash alias first, but this is what it
looks like now.
Kinda shows what kinds of problems I needed to solve most.

what if you painted every house twice, to ensure you got the color completely

sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
image that could be edited.
