if im gonna be broke regardless id rather be a destitute artist and freelancer living out of my van than work my ass off full time just to afford rent on my house...

in case anyone was wondering how easy it is to deploy a service update with #dollctl

you make a tarball with your executable and accompanying files
you navigate to your host in the sigil UI and click the "sv" tab
you click on the service you're deploying
you upload the tarball

once the upload is complete the service is unpacked, linked, and started in the background automatically

oh wow i finally figured out why the websocket connection lifetime on underbbs was so weird. the conn.CloseRead(ctx) call makes sure that the context cancels when the websocket disconnects even though the HTTPHandlerFunc hasn't returned yet!

still in awe that a manager at a small local MSP told me this week that my 8 years of professional IT industry experience were immaterial to lv 2 technician position because i have never worked in an MSP before.

fuck capitalism. been working myself to the bone for 3 months and have 2 measly days of PTO to show for it, and i have to spend one of them today to give myself a 3 day weekend to recover from a workplace injury...

ive been awake for an hour and a half and i have

• drawn lineart for a dirty picture
• remained naked

maybe i should get ready for work >>

love being so poor i can't even afford to do a load of laundry!

but at least i caught up on my rent x_x

People's bio on the fediverse tend have this.. I don't know how else to put it, it reads like Ken in that Barbie movie who says he's really into "beach". What do you DO Ken? Oh I just beach, I'm quite good at beach. Nice to meet you, I'm really into "emacs". Nevermind that, what do you DO? Well, I emacs, what, what do you want for me, I emacs, it's what I do.

so i had a difficult conversation with the (assistant) store manager yesterday, long story short im stuck at poverty wages and i need help. i cant afford food or child support on top of my rent and other bills without additional income.

as i have mentioned recently, i am open for development/sysadmin contracts (https://lightcrystal.systems) and i'll also do name your price art commissions (https://wyrm.online/visual_art). donations also welcome 🖤

mighty mama tiamat i love being poly

ok so i have pretty much run out of the money that i got refunded from my car insurance and that means i need to hustle.

on the one hand if anybody needs an opinionated dev/sysadmin who does stuff like this you know where to find me

on the other hand if you want a pfp or full body character portrait in full color i am offering commissions for 30 and 60 usd respectively. my recent stuff looks like this

working in grocery at the co op i think a lot about the global food distribution chain and how fucked we will be once ecological collapse has past the threshold of being able to support this system

here in Santa Fe, we are lucky to have almost half of our product as local. but even in a "best case scenario" i would say all the capacity on that local product greatly reduced by their own supply chain dependence

so if the big box stores (except maybe whole foods? i shudder to think what that might become) disappear and the co op can only supply at best a quarter of what it does now and at insane prices, pretty much everybody will have to cooperate on food production and ecological support work to survive

Check out that lil guy with the groceries.

I mean look at that hat! Coming back with a bag full of carrots and parsnips and other things you've never even heard of. Where are they off to, what's the potted plant for, is it food? Is it a pretty centerfold? It could be sentient, it wouldn't be the last cactus to board a train and head someplace.

bedding is washed, and i did some other self care things! time to go drop off a package and then i can noodle around until date night :>

ugh the main thing about not driving the past few months is that it makes doing laundry such a pain in the ass. i gotta wash my bedding on top of my other plans today and it... complicates things

i think i posted about this before but you can nicely maintain knife pleats with clothespins and hanging the skirt/dress in the bathroom during a hot shower ^^ dry cleaning usually not needed

all out fusion yakisoba time

• my desktop is 15(!) years old and can play pso2 and zzz and emulate 6th gen consoles and do video editing. as far as i am concerned that is all it will ever need to do
• my laptop is also 15 years old and still functions as a daily driver
• but incidentally i have been daily driving my reMarkable tablet more than my laptop - no color, no network, and purely document based interface for drawing, reading, and writing and it has been feeling gooood. i did buy it new last year (subsidized by work) but the screen has some scratches and cracks already so combined with the other limitations it definitely has the old computer challenge vibes

it doesn't make a bit of difference, guys. the balls are inert
