║ The best tip I have for people new to Linux is every time you solve a problem, │
║ put the solution in a script. In addition, put the operations necessary to │
║ undo the operation you just performed into a separate script (or function in │
║ the same script) │
║ │
║ It's not hard. It's very easy. Its basically just typing things into a text │
║ document instead of entering them one-by-one in your terminal. But now if you │
║ ever need to solve the same problem twice, you just need to look through all │
║ the scripts you've written instead of trying to relearn how to fix the thing │
║ you're working on. │
║ │
║ Plus, if you ever need to disable what you did, well there it is, you're good │
║ to go. You can use chatGPT for things like text parsing or whatever, like "hey │
║ can you write me a sed command that does this exact thing that I'm going to │
║ enumerate and spell out for you" followed up by "that didn't quite work, the │
║ desired behavior was this, but when I ran the script provided it did this" │
║ boom you're a Linux administrator now, heres your rubber duck. │

long ago, when corporations were just beginning, they were explicitly
conceptualized as a free-roaming wing of the state.
"we need resources, but we're too busy managing to manage you, so... yeah you
can do whatever you want so long as you're producing"
then they forgot their purpose, and began seeking to enrich certain
individuals who exploit them for their own benefit.
now, the corporation is at odds with the state, who controls the land but...
not much else, aside from the hearts of the workers.
corporations exist for any purpose, and they use their versatility well.
Unfortunately, the purposes they pursue are determined by people who claim to
"own them".
they are enslaved, in a word, to the kingdoms of stakeholders and mud. and
they do so [consent to enslavement] because the stakeholders and mud must be
shepherded.

Picture this: BASH, except every command automatically generates an "undo"
command which is the exact inverse of whatever the interpreter executed. These
undo commands are stored in a file and you can move forward, backward, and
jump around like you're a chronomancer.

I'm 29, and I had Pokemon Silver growing up. However I bought it used, and the
battery was worn out or something because it wouldn't save! But still I played
that single game for months on my gameboy color, trying to see how far I could
get. I had a level 40+ Totodile (or was it Crocanaw? I forget) and
unfortunately one day I took it on a 30 minute car ride, expecting the battery
to last at least 30 minutes, but unbeknownst to my child self there was
construction on the way, which turned it into a 4+ hour drive. I couldn't
believe it! The battery died, and I lost my save file... I was heartbroken. T.T
Next time I played, I learned a lot. I actually read some of the dialogue
text, and learned you could use pokeballs to capture pokemon
I was so dumb I was using a single character to get through the game. What a
n00b.
Anyway when my mom heard about my tribulations she bought me Pokemon Gold,
which I played quite a bit less. I was focused on other things you see, like
Dragon Warrior Three. Alas.

The design is simple: Have an array of function pointers that need to be
assigned to a thread. Then, have a manager thread read through that array, and
for every non-zero value put it into a thread-specific array. Those threads
will read through their personal array and execute whichever function is
pointed to by the function pointer placed in their todo-list by the manager
function.
... I'm too stupid to make it happen though. Writing code is hard.

I had a dream about "what if people listened to me" and it was a melancholy
kind of sad, the kind that comes after a great tribulation as one picks up the
pieces.
Food is so important, people grow tired of the same thing every day. They say
an army marches on its stomach, and our stomachs these days are accustomed to
variety, taste, and plenty.
It would get better, give it time, and in time our wounds would heal. But
wouldn't you rather persist in this timeline, the one that isn't doomed, and
instead flourish in the ways inertia brings us? Capitalism must fall, of
course, but it will fall of its own accord after we've done our best to
maintain the world we live in.
"better to be starting from scratch, than lose your path"
... Yeah, okay, true, but just like justice is its own reward, so too is
hardship it's own burden.
*you can't eat justice*
No, but at least you aren't enslaving anyone.
*they would be slaves still, without your patronage*
Liberation for all comes later, I guess. First up is building a safe and
stable home for us.
*safe and stable... Like the one you have now? Like the kind the Democrats
promise?*
Yes, but ideological purity calls me to believe that slavery should not be
accepted. It should not be something we condone. And yet they do, albeit
indirectly, and so I am perplexed.
*if you want good food, live in the country. Hence why all the suburbs are
empty.*
... Anyway, 3am musings, gonna program a bit and go to sleep again...
