wolfe but sad @wolfgang@awoo.space

and besides, by now i've managed to completely forget what it was that i wanted to fix anyway (and everything on the github looks too difficult because i haven't done ios dev in years)

ok, it seems to have stabilized at a usable speed for now? maybe i can do this without impulse buying anything

i thought it might be nice to contribute to metatext since i started using it on my phone and it has a bunch of outstanding issues

but it looks like if i want to do that i might need a new computer -_-

haha my laptop from 2016 is already too old to be updated to the latest macos and is also absolutely struggling to keep up with xcode and the iphone simulator 🙃​

so far, that review on the left is mostly proving itself to be true :|

also, reading while on the way somewhere? texting while on the way somewhere? watching youtube while on the way somewhere? writing posts with grave realizations about the experience of driving,,, while on the way somewhere? none of those are legal (or safe) to do while DRIVING; but i COULD (and did!) write most of this very thread while on the bus! wouldn't have been possible if i'd have chosen (and, uh,,, also been able to have chosen) to drive

reviews for xcode on the mac app store

mind you, this is pretty much a mandatory tool for any ios or macos app that's not a webapp

that new alvvays song with the line that goes "the pulse of the brake lights is the color of burning embers" ? probably doesn't refer to a momentary thing like i sort-of-assumed; instead it probably refers to WHAT DRIVING IN TERRIBLE TRAFFIC FOR HOURS is like

you know those views from the bridges over the highway, with the white lights in the one direction and the red lights in the other?

well when you drive at night then the second one is apparently YOUR ENTIRE VISUAL EXPERIENCE for the ENTIRE DRIVE

i would have literally exploded after the first time taking the car to tel aviv. rip wolfe z"l

it's only after a video just casually mentioning it, that i realized that people who drive, basically experience driving in traffic as "looking at rain and brake lights" and not as "gonna be late which sucks but at least i can look around at stuff"

because
when you're driving
you need to look ahead
🤯🤯🤯
mind blown
good thing i never got my license

so is there an instance called masterbatedone yet or do i need to create it?

i am a proud member of a Masterbatedone instance

if i use the feature that lets me "move" my account to a different instance, does the new instance mirror/copy my old posts?

i have an ongoing thread i sometimes add posts to -- if it doesn't get copied, then i'm assuming that responding to the old thread creates all kinds of Federation Weirdery with instances that aren't federated with my old instance? (because it's approve-only)

would it even be POSSIBLE to respond to a thread on my old account once i've "moved' it somewhere else?

i was the one who let you know/
i was your sorry ever after/
what does it mean?/
what does it mean?/
what does it mean?/
oooooooh i had a dream

(it means shaving cream, and it's the most epic-sounding AND the most epic-looking phrase i've ever encountered in any language, for "shaving cream")

i don't know how it is in other countries, but when you import products to israel, you don't need to repackage them in containers with hebrew/arabic print -- it's enough to just slap a sticker with the hebrew/arabic text on the outermost box and call it a day

so anyway what i'm saying is,, i better start memorizing the phrase ΚΡΕΜΑ ΞΥΡΙΣΜΑΤΟΣ or i'm gonna forget what that new tube under the sink is in like 5 days tops

i got a haircut so now i suddenly:

a. look much more like an Attractive Man; but also

b. look much more manly, in general

this feels like wearing a halloween costume that i'm really into lmao

did i just spot two people on my street signing to each other or did they just talk with extremely quick gestures that change hand shape constantly

"when at last the work is done/
don't sit down it's time to dig another one "

*fingerspells a-w-ooooooooo*
