A Feathered Friend @SomeEgrets@awoo.space

I probably could have done most of this in like, a day if I didn't have to use C :(

@skolli@mastodon.social

@Nurbs honestly I can't even hope to compete, you've got me beat there

@thingywott this but for typing

@Prof@snouts.online yeah, I feel this too. I don't drive, and if I want go to KW to visit anyone or be like, minimally social ever, it's a 7:30am departure from here and a 7:50pm departure from KW - minus at least half an hour to be there early so you don't miss it.

So like, if I wanted to visit, I'd be there for not even half a day, and probably have to leave before dinner.

Honestly, Undertale2 is probably the least imaginative thing Toby could do and I 100% expect him to subvert that expectation after making everybody talk about it.

I'd like to give a big shout out to my brain which seems to have decided that looping "King of Spain" in my head is a real great idea.

Completely unrelated, anyone know a good place to buy an ice pick?

I felt bad and then ate a lot of bad food to try to feel better and now I feel worse.

Alternate title: I have some egrets

I feel bad that it's taken me this long to get the software for monitoring and reporting instrument environmental data up and running.

I know what my design goals are and (at a high level) how to implement it, but actually getting the lines down in a source file takes too long

Well, it took six pill pockets but I think my cat may have figured out the ruse.

Whether he knows it's an ongoing thing, and whether he decides to stop taking the tasty treats remains to be seen.

I mean, we're locked to this vendor, so we have no choice.

But this is gonna cost us in terms of other equipment we won't be able to deploy, and student jobs we won't be able to offer over the summer term.

We lost a piece of specialty equipment, and as a condition for replacement, the vendor is requiring us to basically buy up their entire back stock (to the tune of $32k USD or so) if we want any of them.

They won't repair unless we purchase either.

Capitalism: efficient!

I mean, we at least have protections signed into law for now, and it's definitely still a better option than the US in the short term.

But like, seeing how almost every single Liberal voter in ON flipped conservative when the Liberals folded is... not inspiring.

They didn't really do that, and I'm not sure if they can pull that off again. I don't have any faith in a conservative federal government not to be absolute shitholes, having seen what the provincials are already doing in Ontario.

Sometimes I wonder about trying to get people to come to Canada though.

Like, last fed election, the Liberals (centrists) beat the Conservatives (conservatives) by basically promising the leftier voters that they'd do a few things they liked if they consolidated against cons

On principle, I'm going to like literally every tweet I see about the like button.

Literally nobody except warmed over "gamer thing" leftovers, right wing apologists, and literal Nazis wants to try to """debate""" anything in 280 chars on this hell site, twitter, let me keep giving people a little heart shaped boost when they do a thing I enjoy for fucks sake

Okay, I saw the "timeline goes sideways" tweet getting passed around again, what asinine thing did they change this time?

For dinner tonight, I made cheapass hot dogs, but I did find out that you can make pretty decent cheapass hot dogs in a toaster oven. I don't have a balcony or grill, so this is about as close as I can get.

I envy my cat a lot.
All he has to worry about is finding warm spots to have a nap and reminding me to feed him twice a day.
