@lyncia you ever just like, download all of wikipedia: the format

@m455 if you do decide to wsl, i may or may not have A Few Things that might make that feel actually pretty good overall if that interests you! archenoth.com/notes/#setting-u

i also definitely recommend wsl1 over 2 since 2 is basically just running a vm in the background, and you can't really do server stuff with it easily for...a few frustrating reasons

@haskal oh heck yeah!! that extremely rules!

you don't need to discount it~ having a self-image you vibe with is absolutely tremendous ^^

@m455 oh nooo, that super-duper sucks

that's a lot of stress that you really didn't need, especially with how hard you've been trying to do good :T

i hope you find something else soon, and that the time until then can be a respite

@SuricrasiaOnline oh nooo

i hope you feel better soon..! it's not nice to feel not nice

@SuricrasiaOnline i feel like i should also mention, scrum is called agile, but i honestly kinda don't buy it

agile is when developers are allowed to switch gears as things come up, and trust each other to communicate what's important

scrum is a daily ritual of humiliating people who had off days, and adding social pressure with a threat the same will happen to you. and is a way management can make promises based on enthusiastic developers who underestimate their tasks, and blame them later

@SuricrasiaOnline oh, scrum is a nightmare

the absolute worst type of agile. it combines needless commitment with glorifying the idea that you need to be at 100% capacity every single day

that's not how people work, that's just how managers want them to :s

@SuricrasiaOnline i mostly like it because the extra steps to coordinate in a structured way otherwise just feel so bad

a lot of methodologies feels like signing a contract any time i'm about to do something, and it's nice to be allowed to get bored with a thing and just like...do something else we need instead

@bx yeah! it's a pretty nifty app that pretty much lets you program android things, and trigger those things either manually, or under certain conditions you set up

tasker.joaoapps.com/

i use it and termux together on the reg, but before i knew about termux, this is what i'd do most of my stuff in, and the website has old versions, going all the way back to ones usable on android cupcake

@bx not quite the same thing, but it might be possible to grab an old tasker version and interact with the java objects in your system, or write js for more complex things too!

@cinnamon ooh, biiig same! going to a rhythm game arcade seems like it would be really fun

maybe i can finally try out some of the wilder looking games like maimai too~

@bx oh heck yessss

i like how you're just casually playing through my GOTYs hahah

hat is probably one of the most charming games i've ever played~ ^^

@zoe hee, even if it was broken, it was kinda fun to see~

also, also! followed
