@gloriouscow@oldbytes.space I feel like this could be made into one of those sliding reference tools with the cardboard sleeve and the windows to the paper inside.

My California Fuschia free seeding failed. Not sure if I did a poor job of germination or I had bad seeds though.
In better news, today I harvested around 30-50 California Hummingbird Sage (Pink flowers). These are much larger seeds, so it's a lot easier to identify ones that seem healthy. I"ll be planting them by hand.

@0x10f@tech.lgbt @noneuclideandreamer@mathstodon.xyz This result feels very similar to a Penrose tiling, but I'm not enough of a mathematician to make connections beyond vibes.
Got some free wireless routers for my home network buildout.
Router 1: Won't support modern browsers because it uses some stupid javascript and I can't fix it.
Router 2: Doesn't support AP mode, doesn't have OpenWRT or DDWRT support because drivers were not released. Requires you to install a fucking app and have a Linksys account?
Both of these products infuriate me. Two perfectly good pieces of hardware ruined by greedy and shortsighted software.
It feels like a terrible time to be getting a Computer Science degree. I expect to graduate in early 2028, and I don't think the AI world or the software engineering market is going to be much improved by then.
On the other hand, what other science or engineering bachelors could I get, fully remote, nights and weekends only, while raising kids?
I guess I'll get that easy piece of paper for now, and worry about learning something with 'value' later.
Supposed to do homework tonight. Did none. Supposed to do regular work today. Did none. Supposed to do housework yesterday. Did none.
What did I do? Fucked around on the internet.
This was a good use of my time.

@Xavier@infosec.exchange @ml@ecoevo.social California is highly variable, Davis isn't properly in the SF Bay area or Los Angeles zone, so it's definitely more affordable.

@jeremyjackson@mastodon.social I hate it, but the discussions in every server I spend time in are either "I don't really care, because I can't do anything to change it" and "I guess I'm a teen now". Neither make me optimistic. I'll be abandoning my account I expect.
I don't think discord is going to suffer much, unfortunately. Age verification is making a strong run right now, and the more services that start using it, the more accepted it will become.
