[2023-12-12T23:16:20Z] <sad_plan> ah [2023-12-12T23:16:26Z] <midfavila> when i'm done working i plan to do a little tinkering [2023-12-12T23:16:47Z] <midfavila> i'm also still looking for a better job xwx [2023-12-12T23:17:12Z] <midfavila> the union thing may or mayn't happen at work, and if it does, great, if not, definitely need a better job. might have something remote as a typist soon tho which would be sweet [2023-12-12T23:17:50Z] <sad_plan> I see [2023-12-12T23:18:09Z] <midfavila> yeah that's my excuse [2023-12-12T23:18:13Z] * midfavila shrugs [2023-12-12T23:19:47Z] <midfavila> i remember being really close to finishing apport too [2023-12-12T23:20:00Z] <midfavila> i think the last thing on the list i had to do was get redirection working properly? [2023-12-12T23:21:18Z] <sad_plan> yeah, I think you were getting there [2023-12-12T23:21:33Z] <midfavila> 100% was [2023-12-12T23:21:58Z] <midfavila> i'll probably rewrite apport to use non-blocking network routines [2023-12-12T23:22:07Z] <midfavila> that was part of what was hanging me up on XIRC [2023-12-12T23:22:48Z] <sad_plan> yeah I recall you taling about a rewrite [2023-12-12T23:24:45Z] <midfavila> there's still a lot of stuff i want to work on [2023-12-12T23:24:51Z] <midfavila> the past year has just been absolutely insane [2023-12-12T23:25:09Z] <midfavila> i should probably write another blog entry soon actually [2023-12-12T23:25:11Z] <midfavila> :thinking: [2023-12-12T23:44:20Z] <sad_plan> I can relate. theres some things I should be working on aswell, but I can never seem to stop procastrinating
