Hi hi! I've been using for

Hi hi! I've been using for a couple of years, and it's not until today that I made my first template. For at least a year, I've been writing a food diary, mainly typing the same structure every day... until today. Now I'm part of the future! And it's glorious!

I am rewatching Jujutsu Kaisen and I finally understand the story.

My first watch was all about finishing episodes and looking out for top-notch battles.

This time, however, things are making sense (except Satorus powers)

pt 1: 3:25 in the afternoon I got up at around 11:20 a.m. after an intensive 3 day weekend of work. After 4 coffees (mostly only about 4 ounces/125mls, largest around 6 ounces and all 1/3-1/2 decaf)) + veg soup for breakfast, some bran cereal later, then a few cookies- I now finally feel sort of awake...lol. Did a bit of writing earlier, maybe now get a bit of blog work done, before getting outside!

Sitting at the library today. Someone moved my favorite table so that the sun hits my laptop screen and now it is my least favorite table. I cant see the screen.

Under normal circumstances, you cant see how filthy my laptop it. Absolutely disgusting. I dont want to see this,

Now Im in such a bad mood I dont even know how to talk about anything else. I moved my chair to the old location of the table and have my laptop on MY LAP like, it is some kind of laptop The audacity. Im trying to be funny but really Im fuming. My hormones are wilding, and honestly, nothing puts me in a worse mood than the sun. Shining all over everything, so bright and hot. I hate it.

Hates a strong word, Betty. I hate Nazis. I have an ex-wife she bothers me.

I tried to find a gif of this scene from Mad Men, but its incredible how bad internet search engines have gotten. Garbage, Woof, my mood, amirite

Haha okay okay, what else do I know this week Surely I have something nice to say. I have been hyper-focusing on bad things, for sure. Plumbing problems and weird interactions I had on the internet over a decade ago, everything bad that is happening every single day, and of course, the loathsome sunshine. I should make a list of good things.

  1. Shaun and I started playing Super Mario Bros Wonder last night. Its very cute and fun in that comforting classic Mario platform way.
  2. Things have been rough for almost everyone I love, but theyre getting better every day.
  3. We rewatched Amelie on Saturday. It feels so important and relatable. I fell asleep on Shaun and it was so safe and cozy and sleepy.
  4. We had a wonderful video chat on Mothers Day with my mom and siblings. I am the luckiest, loving my family is so easy and I know that isnt always the case so I dont want to take it for granted.
  5. We have been rewatching The Good Place. It is the only tv comedy that has ever made me cry but in a good way.
  6. We are planning a date night later this week! We are gonna get some Indian food and walk around downtown, maybe. It is good to have something to look forward to.
  7. I have almost filled my latest bullet journal! I have been keeping one since 2016.
From my 2016 Bullet Journal 6 full journals and 1 empty one My new journal, I started setting it up to start in July A magic spell in stickers in my new journal.

That worked, Im a bit less angry at the literal Sun for its very existence. Thanks for being here, wordpress journal. Next week I will doubtless be in a better mood and maybe someone less terrified of being annoying to their fellow library patrons will have dragged this big table back to the good spot.

Current Mood: Rubbish, but trying

Christmas in May

Deliberately "bent" my line stamps on the right-hand page there I feel like I levelled up. :O

5/9/1969, Friday: Beatles at Olympic: mixing on Get Back amid fractious business meetings. Paul (now as "Paul Ramon") relieved the tension by recording a song through the night with Steve Miller. Paul contributed drums, bass and backing vocals while Miller sang lead and played all the other instruments.

TIL: You need to add your $USER to operator group in order to shutdown/reboot using wlogout.

You can also set suid bit for the programs manually but I felt adding to group was better.

It turns out pamxdg will set appropriate XDGRUNTIMEDIR as needed.

When I installed this pkg for sddm login, I simply deleted my shell script and commented out xorg code which triggered it.

In my BSD adventures, I have been running a custom kernel in an attempt to improve acpiasus by looking at Linux kernel.

I understand not wanting to use GPL code in BSD land but that functionality makes basic things like volume control keys to work.

I am looking for functionality right now rather than code so I wont try to upstream my changes.

May 5th-11th. Using the stamp colours Malted Mauve and Jumbo Java.

Just finished reading: The Motorcycle Diaries by Ernesto Guevara (2021 edition)

The diary of Che Guevara's journey to discover the continent of Latin America while still a medical student, in 1952 on a vintage Norton motorcycle with his friend Alberto Granado, a biochemist. It captures the exuberance and joy of one person's youthful belief in the possibilities of humankind tending towards justice, peace and happiness.

I finally managed to migrate over to in .

It turns out I was missing pamxdg package. LightDM would not allow me to switch tty after logging in. SDDM is fine with it though :)

I also learned about devd and configured it for laptop lid close event. It was easier than I thought.

I need to setup auto switching to headphones. Manually changing it via pavucontrol is terrible.

btw I am looking for wifi & BT GUI to setup stuff when needed.

The +17% mood boost on days when I get to ride is absolutely real, by the way

Made the most stupidest possible mistake today.

I tried shrinking NTFS partition on Linux. Its been more than 6 hours and the damn thing hasnt finished yet.

I lost patience and cancelled it around 5 hour mark but apparently I gotta wait for geometry for partition thing to finish before it can be cancelled.

*insert rage meme here*

Oh btw I need the new partition so I can clone FreeBSD kernel and compile my own.
