So - as expected - I've eventually been forced to downgrade my job laptop to Windows 11. What a fucking ridiculous piece of bloatware. It's the worst OS since Vista (which in Latvian means chicken = some sort of poultry, like turkey, which is kalkon in Swedish, also meaning inferior, e.g. "kalkonoperativ" = chicken shit OS).

I think my favorite alternate universe is the one in crimson skies.

Prohibition failed to pass congress in the US, which leads the US to balkanize and close their state borders. Airplanes and zeppelins are ubiquitous and there are space pirates getting loots all over the country

tailwind is trash holy crap.

every div element contains like 30 classes that have their own thing going for them.

just start writing inline css at that point. Why bother putting classes in?

you're crazy if you think gaslighting is real

you know how all these annoying body hairs pop up on your laptop in various places? Looks tedious. So the first instinct is to blow them away or remove with fingers.

So I'm sitting w/ my lappy on my lap, writing terraform resources, when I notice 2 short hairs sticking out of the hinge. Sure enough, I try to remove them. But they seem to be stuck. Probably got somehow tangled in the fan or the radiator.
What a stubborn pair of hairs.. okay, let me get a good grip on those buggars and PUUULLLL....... AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

FUCK! THESE WERE MY LEG HAIR! STILL ATTACHED TO MY LEG!

#unintentional-depilation

My old cat is 24. It's because we give her some CBD oil to cure her oilments.

Inspired by netikras leg hair story reminded me of another hair story.

I was training to maintain a Bailey DCS system about 15 years ago. So I was working with the consoles and learning the software. My mentor at the time was talking to me about this. He was a heavy set fellow with a Phd in control theory. His eyes kind of naturally stuck out of his face a bit. I assume blood pressure of some sort.

mentor: "Hey, I can see you have working on the consoles on the system."

me: "How is that?"

mentor: "I found a curly hair." (I have curly hair when it gets longer.)

me: <me, saying this very slowly and deliberately> "How...curly...was...it?"

At this point he started laughing by rapidly blowing air out of his nose, his eyes bulged out further, he kept his mouth mostly closed. He was trying to be professional and not laugh at such base joke.

me: "I mean if its really curly it could be anyone."

Then he lost it and started laughing out loud. We never spoke about it ever again.

Men, fak dis shit. Companies want highly experienced developers, even as Junior dev. Hellooooo, I'm medium-skilled. lol. I started out lacking some skills, then moved onto vendor-locked companies who monopolized and minimized my learning time, ending up learning jack shit in the process. That's how you get stuck. lol.

And on we go.

I know vibe coding is a thing now, but I do hear a lot of people talking about how the AI can get off track and make some pretty bad mistakes. I think (for me at least) the takeaway from that is use it, but don't ask it to do anything that you couldn't do yourself.

Two rules to live by:
1. Never assume in chess.
2. Never assume in Thailand.

i haven't seen "rant of the week" thingy for a lot of time, i assumed my app needs updating but i know there r no longer android updates.

is the feature dead or is there an apk i can get?

due to my ex blonde whores disrespectful and the most vile disgusting behavior a female can have

i have to keep reminding myself that this is a man's world and whores (all females of the world) are just an optional added bonus for the man (myself) to enjoy using and discard into trash when its used.

no idea why am i naturally psychopathic so i dont feel no emotion. i would love to become like that tho any tips?

There are advantages to being really hungry and having some sensory issues. I went and got tacos from the taco bus today. I sat at my desk to eat them. I was really hungry today.

As I started eating them I could feel the hot of the salsa causing all my nerves in my mouth to really trip out. I could taste the meat, the sauce, the tortilla, and the cheese at a heightened sensation. As I was chewing the first few bites I literally shook a bit as the smorgasbord of pleasure sensations shot through my mouth. I could feel my eyes rolling back in my head. I didn't know one could have a mouthgasm. The sensations were so intense.

I have had this happen before, but never this intense or memorable. I felt like I would have been embarrassed to eat like this in front of other people. If this is something I can repeat I would be inclined to starve myself to make myself extra hungry to experience this again. What a nice surprise for lunch. Nobody expects surprise mouth sex. (Idea of new Monty Python skit?)

I have to say I would have to leave an anonymous review for the taco bus if I were to relay the mouthgasm event. Is this the start of a new fetish? Now I am sensually attracted to tacos. Well done taco bus, well done.

CSS is for children.

Who needs colors and blinking and custom fonts. Those things are retarded. HTML have everything you need to make functional websites.

Actually if you ever used CSS we should send you to gulag

downside of being magically healed by people is I don't have the brain to learn magic (maybe it's the drugs honestly...) so I'm ravenously dependent on this guy to do another round so I can gain more brainpower

fucking hell

I don't like dependence

also every time he does this I feel like I've been sutured for 1-3 days. and I gotta be careful and not pull at them. how the hell do you do that with a brain? that's gonna be so fucking bad. "just don't think at 145 iq horsepower" tehe.

AND he says it's experimental. and what the fuck he says he's only this good at healing due to past mistakes... I might end up a vegetable. but I'm already a fucking vegetable. fuck

upside, he fixed my nervous system back to having endurance for emotions and stress so I'm not fucked up from thinking all this. yay some resilience for once after 3 years of hell

one guy thinks I survived a paradoxical collision of time magic. that doesn't make sense why the shit would I have hit a fucking time traveling universe. then he changed his mind thinking failed possession. this makes more sense to me but who the fuck would've wanted to possess me. fucking Christ. and could they not have melted my nervous system having tried to do so. mean as shit.
I still think it was a hex. I think it was a death hex actually.

thanks for coming to the weirdest shit ever Ted episode

my tarot cards basically say good luck, too. nothing happened. you had a bunch of energy, you made a bunch of money, now you can sit at home and think about stuff, effect the world with yourself as you see fit, and either be a judgemental prick or a righteous prick. this is basically a retirement plan.

Why does everything require an account these days?
I just wanted to try out a simple to-do list app. Next thing I know, it's asking for my email, phone number, and the name of my first pet. I'm not buying a house — I just want to tick off "buy milk."
Whatever happened to lightweight, no-signup tools? Devs, bring back simplicity please.

If you need a quick pick-me-up filled with charm and silly fun, give this snack-powered baseball a try. It’s whimsical, surprisingly tricky, and perfect for some light-hearted gaming breaks.

This place became a botRant?

When everything works, but nothing feels right.

You ever hit that weird stretch where all your code compiles, all your tests pass… but somehow, everything still feels off?

No fires to put out, no angry PMs breathing down your neck — and yet, the motivation just isn’t there. You stare at the screen, pretend to refactor, maybe rename a few variables, and then just… stare again.

It’s like the calm after a sprint, except the calm feels more like quicksand.

Not burnout. Not boredom. Just... blank.
