The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
mastodon account of natalie roentgen connolly. ongoing experiment in the field of "having a social media account".
entities wishing to see their follow requests approved MUST either be known to this one outside of the federated verse or include a basic bio on their profile with enough information or posts for this one to perform a "vibe check".
natalie will refer to itself in the third person. anyone speaking of or to it MAY do so as well. it does not really care. it MAY refer to itself in first person, either for "the bit" or if I simply feel like doing so.

@brettm I mean yeah I would classify that as like a normal hanging out activity
they found mitch mcconnel??
once when I was bored in the robotics lab I belt sanded my old phone. I miss my old phone. it had things welded to it. every phone is made out of stupid glass or plastic or ceramic now for a fake feature (I do not respect wireless charging), so you can't just weld things to phones anymore. wokey wokey

@brettm it is very important that you use systemd. otherwise how would terminal emulators work?
sometimes when I am bored I look at the kitty terminal's source code. it's so good!

put a #define in the middle of a function body for some reason! why not! you are allowed to do anything! the buttons on the keyboard are there to be pressed! press them however you want!

@brettm no this is my favorite systemd feature I love when it decides to wait a minute and a half for no reason

how do I turn this off so that dns starts working again
Replying to @0x6e6174@catgirl.cloud
what the hell is systemd-resolved what happened to normal fucking dns
how does anyone use systemd this computer makes no sense
unsurprising natalie fact: it browses the web from lynx in termux on its phone a lot of the time

@brettm isn't this just normal? why would I put spaces in a file name?
