@fesshole It's not unheard of. This guy did that exact thing when he was 40.

@SocialCommentaryBot @fesshole there's always hermitry, that doesn't require religion & the day is yours

I've started looking into whether it's possible to become a monk. I have no interest in any type of religion. I just want to be left alone in a quiet space for a long time.

look, we'll just say it, we don't like or trust organizations that pitch themselves as the governance layer of the fediverse. it's an attempt to build a hierarchical power structure. that is not the right shape for such things.

@Owlor this metalhead is also an appreciator of 30s/40s swing, Damn you, Fallout :P

"Shade is supposed to be the enemy of a farm. Crops chase sunlight, so roofing a field with panels ought to starve them. Yet plot after plot came in with more fruit, not less, and the plants looked healthier than the ones baking in the open. Stranger still, the shaded rows did it while drinking far less water. (...) Chiltepin pepper plants produced three times as much fruit as those grown in full sun. Jalapenos matched their usual harvest while using 65 percent less water. Tomatoes grown under the array came in at twice the normal yield."

Good luck achieving that with a nuclear reactor.

Hey so, genuine programming question.

I want a language made for GUI applications that is not HTML/XML-based. It can still be a markup language; my main hangup with the "XML style" is how often you have to repeat yourself, how obscured information becomes under the length of tags, and how annoying it is to change tags. I do appreciate descriptive elements, and I am willing to make my own API based on a different markup language if it comes to it.

Is there something like this?

@IceWolf trucking goods between werehouses?

@NanoRaptor @colinstu line thorough the base makes me think someone's gone through it with a table saw & they're trying to pass it off

Scrivenix—a Flatpak application that downloads and installs the Windows version of Scrivener plus WINE on any Linux that supports them. Has a GUI installer that includes License activation (you need a license key for the Windows version to do this).

This is a steamroller for the main obstacle that's been keeping me off moving to Linux for ages. Now I just have a bunch of Macs and no reason to buy a new PC (yet).

@nycki @0x4d6165 was also thinking of dokuwiki, it's just files you dump in a directory, no database or anything fancy

Anyone in Ventura County know of someone who can service a Russian clock?

(pretty sure it just needs a bit of oil in the right places)

(If not... I may have to learn this skill, too🤪 )

@digiyote well I've fed my cat the usual amount of times, bought a few days of food from the supermarket & I've got a bench that needs slotting together :P

Things I've done today that are more important than my job:

Aren’t all Greek cats technically micros?
