Are you anxious?, I stayed up till 2 to 3 am so scared.. , but binge watching My Little Pony in my brain helps me sleep! @Gargron welcome to the team. I’m a night owl but I’m damn near certain it’ll be the end of my health.

Our government is trying to look after their media mates. Google and Facebook aren't happy so are pushing back hard They are worried about happens in other countries if we get away with it here In saying that, someone has to pay the "journalists" I posted a Firefox screenshot on Mastodon's Twitter and it's been compressed to hell... What the hell

@Gargron yeah they compress the hell out of images. GradientBot's thumbnail images on there are terrible, although occasionally they get an interesting texture to them. It's annoying because someone might see the super compressed thumbnail and think that's what the full size image looks like. @Gargron I blame ceph. While it has inline image compression and scaling it's not the most elegant. I feel awful. I’ve cycled through like 5 different things that I need to work on without making progress on any of them, quickly getting distracted by the other thing.

Been there. That's usually a cue to do my self-care checklist (thirsty? hungry? had pills? exercised? etc, etc, you know what works for you) and go do some of that, and maybe do some household chores for a bit. Or just get the hell up and go outside for a while. @Gargron Being an adult sucks sometimes. One thing I've done is create a task list on my Nextcloud server and manage it with OpenTasks on my phone. Helps keep me on track because sometimes it's easy to get frustrated and just say, "Fuck it, I'll do this other thing and come back to this later." but then 6 months go by and I forget about the first thing.

@Gargron @darius that is.....a bizarre UX decision Like I know finding unique usernames on the internet is getting increasingly difficult, but this doesn’t feel like its actually solving that problem—if anything restricting people to the FirstLast12345 format is reducing the total number of learnable usernames You ever have pictures on your phone where you can see your computer's screen from long ago, and you catch a glimpse of people you were talking to back then who are no longer around. Wild @Gargron Nope, but it's a lot of scary screens showing Windows XP, which is weird enough. So many of my friends were, as I'd call it, consumed by relationships. And many of those who were not, moved abroad. It's depressing tbh. Once again, headache... Maybe it's the weather, it's thrashing between cold and hot all the time

@Gargron FWIW s a long-time sufferer from migraines, I long thought it was induced by the weather; but it turned out to be gluten of all things. @Gargron A neurologist who specializes in headaches could help. There are lots of ways to treat chronic headaches & migraines. Also, be careful of taking pain medicine too often, because it can cause rebound headaches. |
@Gargron @Notrudyayb So in 2020 everyone will have those horrible Millennial Mullets? Darkest. Timeline.
