sometimes a call myself a fag or faggot. sometimes as part of working through my relationship with fisher society, sometimes just because it feels straightforwardly good to self-id that way. I feel weird CWing self-identifiers so this is my account-level warning on this.

i have a very simple thing i wanna do: make an HTTP request and enforce a timeout from the start of the request to the first bit of response body coming in.

I can't do a timeout for the whole request because the response body is an endless stream, and I don't want to set separate dial, tls handshake, etc. timeouts because that looks like a huge mess and doesn't appear to actually cover all the states between request and the start of response.

I'm sure there's just something i'm not understanding about Contexts that would help a lot

this started out as an earnest attempt at drawing an kobl, i promise

a while ago i saw a page about a Mini ITX motherboard that had a right angle PCIe slot on the "north" (like, the opposite edge of the board than usual) side of the board, so that you could slide a GPU into the connector and its fans would face upwards. anyone know what i'm talking about / have a model number / link / anything?

i want a cute dress made out of fabric that's just this tiled infinitely
