I keep wanting to use fzf as a general interface, but there are all these seemingly-slight issues that keep that from being viable. Was building a Spartan browser in shell script using fzf as an interface just now, but the lack of line wrapping and the lack of support for entering arbitrary text makes it a non-starter. :/

Dropped a butter knife on my laptop screen. Managed to make a small cut in the polarization film, so now I've got a white line in the middle of my screen. I wonder if it's possible to order the film only, or if I'm going to have to order a whole new screen? 馃

My Gemini capsule, running gmid on an OpenBSD VM hosted by Vultur, somehow got borked, and restoring from a previous snapshot doesn't change a thing, which makes me suspect the problem is Vultur's. The VM won't even boot. I get dumped into some sort of debug console instead. Meanwhile they've dropped support for OpenBSD so I can't spin up a fresh OpenBSD VM unless I bring my own ISO and hope nothing goes wrong again. I've known about this for over a week now, but haven't settled on a VM provider for my capsule's next home yet. Any suggestions?

I enjoyed this post titled "Gemini and Desire:" gemini://alex.flounder.online/gemlog/2021-10-31-gemini-desire.gmi My thoughts regarding Gemini and sustainable/old tech are similar, though I have not fully formulated/verbalized them yet. Learning to control one's desires, realizing that much of them are illusory and bound to be more a source of harm than help, seems like an important skill to develop.

Just figured out why msmtp wasn't working under Debian. Its AppArmor profile is too restrictive for how I'm using it. Leaving a note here for my future self and anyone else with the same problem. Credit to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62838673/awk-permission-denied-when-run-through-msmtp The solution: sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.msmtp /etc/apparmor.d/disable/ sudo apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.msmtp

I bookmarked this post some time ago and found myself reading it again today. 'To survive a collapse, never mind build the utopia, systems need to be running now. That means scaled sourcing of materials, creation, and deployment.' This resonates with me. I also think there is value in documenting what can be reclaimed from where, along with what those components may be used for. Making useful what would otherwise be waste is, in my opinion, one of the most solarpunk endeavors possible. gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/users/shufei/phlog/20200712-Comp-Solarpunk.gmi

Just finished the 2021-04-05 episode of Trendy Talk and then immediately found this post, which I thought dovetailed nicely with some of Chris Were's arguments: gemini://ew.srht.site/en/2021/20210716-re-why-distributed-systems-dont-work.gmi Structural change does need to happen to address a lot of the problems facing us, but in the meantime there's still value in doing whatever little bit one can immediately do as well.

This whole "intuitive, impulsive" cooking thing is working really well so far. Procrastinated on a task today by making a fresh pasta dinner for the house with three different pestos and some oven roasted brussel sprouts while listening to an episode of Trendy Talk. Not bad as far as procrastination goes. Certainly beats endlessly scrolling social media!

When I was younger, I thought that being an early adopter for every shiny new tech toy would empower me and give me an edge. I tried to make up for a lack of experience with being among the first to every new trend. Now those shiny new toys just look like shackles to me, and the "progress" of consumer-oriented tech just looks like a hamster wheel. It's a strange feeling, being in tech while also hating so much about it.

Just successfully repaired a broken scissor switch on my Thinkpad using a male pin header, a hobby knife, and some epoxy. One of the pegs on the scissor switch had broken off, and the metal from a male pin header was exactly the right size and shape to replace the whole section. In the past I would have replaced the whole keyboard. Feels like I've just leveled up! :D

I have a bad habit of killing my own momentum when what I perceive to be the "correct" path conflicts with what I *want* to do. I perceive learning the "mother sauces" to be "correct," as I've already begun that task and knowing those seems to be considered "foundational," but what I *want* to do now is play with lentils and curries. So now I find myself doing neither. :p

Shoved my larger plastic bins into a space I made for them in my closet. Updated my "bins" system page accordingly. Not everything is catalogued and binned yet, but I'm feeling the sort of strong resistance to the task that indicates burnout. Soon I will become entirely incapable of making myself catalogue and bin anything (you can't even pay me to do something I've burned out on; I quite literally *cannot* make myself do it), so I'm going to try to tie up the loose ends so I can call it "done" before I totally lock up.
