TIL in #nix these behave subtlety and surprisingly differently:
foo = ./file-path
foo = "${./file-path}"
"Many memes ago..."
(modern "many moons ago...")
that feeling when you are like a week into a quick 2 day project
how going for a walk as a coping strategy is going so far this year:

@alina@girldick.gay i might have spent too long making it have different probabilities of replying depending on what was run and the result, and different personas each day
if something is worth prototyping, its worth prototyping badly with a trip-hazard network cable down the stairs across the hall into the kitchen
i don't have an ADHD diagnosis, but i did just find a cup of tea in the microwave
"fuse wire" is when the wires are so thin they function as a fuse, right? ... also the ES bulb holder is wired backwards and the switch is on the neutral and one of the wires was squished in the housing - kinda impressed how much is wrong really. i should not be allowed near aliexpress since i clearly rolled a 1 for appraise when ordering

@attoparsec@clacks.link also fun: if you use the cast API directly shorts cast just fine

TFW you are checking drive specs cos one in the RAID array is showing SMART errors and... then you spot one of the other drives has a model number that does not match the colour of the sticker on the outside ...
and finally realising i likely got scammed 6.7 years ago mrow
(like the drive is still working ATM, but it has a WD Blue model number with a WD Red sticker)

@brambleshadow4@equestria.social sorry it happened like this, but wanted to come back and say it's been stuck in my head for like a week and i am very excited to hear the finished version when it's ready.
given no response might be worth asking mods?

@attoparsec@clacks.link i really like the way the colour blocks interact with the corners of the letters
a full 10 minutes of wondering why this IR LED was not working...
DMM diode check says it's fine, but PSU is stuck at 0V voltage drop...
it's almost as if...

oh.
i am literally the silliest kitty today.

@alina@girldick.gay this does have the very edge-case advantage of supporting X forwarding

found a bug in my printer's firmware for it's impl of user-defined characters sigh

the solution ended up being fairly simple (use a real user and write a short polkit rule) but i tried a lot of other things along the way 😅

also i should probably try and remember to write this up as an example/documentation update... cos nearly all of it was confusing to me
impossible goal: trying to get my youtube watching/subscriptions down to <=50% white guys
today i have done none of the things i was supposed to do, but i do now know a bit more about USB HID
(entirely coincidentally a new (to me) piece of hardware was delivered)
want to quickly check the permissions on your #postgreql DB? simply run these 5 easy to remember commands:
\du
\l+ (db name)
\dn+
\dp
\ddp
(and then cross reference the list of 9 characters next to each username against the manual)
(about sums up my confusion this evening)
loving this week's #vinted UI update where someone decided that including the details of each saved search made the list look too cluttered so now i get to play lucky dip!
(these are all different saved searches with different filters etc)

@alina@girldick.gay it's currently mixed up in a private config repo... i should factor it out into its own thing some time...
but in the mean time happy to send you files privately
