turns out, twitter timelines are actually a pretty-okay way to have dynamic galleries on static sites
like, check this out! https://archenoth.com/drawstuffs/
it's not perfect, but adding new stuff to this is extremely low-effort--and has less inertia for me than adding a bit of markdown to my jekyll repo whenever i put up something new

Pokemon gen with the best music?
i decided to actually do advent of code this year, which is a fantastic sign
it means i actually feel like casually writing code again
@nihilazo oh heck, i totally forgot the mcelroy thing was today!
personal
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz it would be wonderful if my social life wasn't so thoroughly connected to the ebb and flow of my mind
but hey! maybe that just means i need to hang out more so that i don't feel like i'm out of place around as many people--because that feeling takes mental energy that i just sometimes don't have
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh! ohayou~ ^^
personal
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz yeaaaaaah. i kinda do this in bursts
it's like a cycle of
1) "i should get out there more" *does so*
2) "oh no, this is probably annoying" *retracts into obscurity*
it's honestly a miracle that anyone gets closer to me at all =w=
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oof yeah
this is partly why i basically take a millennium to reply with anything longer than a sentence--and i even meticulously reread those!
video of a game with trauma and oppressive topics, but also it's pokemon
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz i haven't!
i mostly just heard mcelroys reference it a lot, but never really gave it much thought besides as "a thing i missed when it was made"
maybe i'll check it out~

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz yeah, that game is wild
i don't wanna spoil anything more, but it really does things. and actually, it hits me in ways literally nothing else has

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz oh! have you ever considered pokemon mystery dungeon: gates to infinity?
have a clip that's admittedly slightly spoily, but also gives a pretty good idea about the theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwM8mKxC5nI&t=955 (timestamp in the url is important btw)
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz yeaaaah, they're big ol annoying blobs now, so copying only grabs the first frame and getting the url fills your copy buffer with base64
handy
i've been making a habit of using duckduckgo's image search so that my muscle memory stops betraying me when i wanna send something
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz hee, don't worry~
i just giggled when i recognized the topics on the tl--and i was happy i could read your takes on them ^^

If leftist spaces can't get past the habit of conflating actions with behavior then I don't know how we'll ever succeed. If we can't understand that bad people can do good things and vice versa then we're unbelievably lost.
@derFisch oh! i'm suuuper-late, but welcome! ^^
explainy
@Felthry @monorail one common reason is because nginx can run as root so your actual server that might have holes in it doesn't need to
root is the highest permission level on linux, and you typically need to use them to have a server that listens on ports browsers actually try to connect to
basically, nginx is heavily battle tested, so there's a smaller chance that someone can exploit it and gain root privileges than whatever random and less-tested thing you put behind it
