My favorite part of listening to music on YouTube is finding an old upload of a song.
They tended to use a noise gate? or filter? (idk the term) which made the sound muddier and quieter. It sounds like absolute crap but it has a nostalgic, early internet taste to it.

I also love videos that have mojibake in the title. No idea how that could have happened well into the 2000s.

@EeveeEuphoria that's awesome! I may actually try more distros this way. I've been eyeing NixOS for a while.

Wait hold the phone, if Flatpak's user installation dumps all user data to a .var folder under ~, doesn't that mean that I could be up and running by just installing all apps on install? Everything should Just Work™️, right?

systemd-homed is cool, actually. Maybe I set it up funny (my home folder IS a partition, and a loopback device, so space unused is reserved and looks Weird), but it's cool knowing it's portable. Next reinstall should go smoother. Knock on wood.

I dreamt the most beautiful, coolest and captivating person ever. Wow. I'm like actually infatuated.
I need to create this person. I need to draw them or somehow bring them to this plane.
She had the sickest tats.

I guess that warning on the Arch Wiki about issuing a secure erase command on a drive while plugged into a USB adapter is true. I done did brick it. It's a chinese cheapo one but it's still 256GB!
I'll see if there's a way to reflash the controller firmware, as I'm 99.9% sure that's what blew up. It must have gotten /dev/zero'd.

About a week ago, operators of the Voyager 2 spacecraft sent a series of commands that inadvertently caused the distant probe to point its antenna slightly away from Earth. As a result, NASA has lost contact with the spacecraft, which is nearly half a century old and presently 19.9 billion km away from the planet.

Switch to Firefox.

Edit: Google have now ditched WEI, but this still shows why it's important to have competition in the browser space.

Every single time I reinstall Arch I forget how the fuck to get systemd-boot and encrypted subvolumes to play nicely. God damn.
