just finished another polycrisis page, will upload it tomorrow. im feeling very excited for drawtober also. i have a few ideas in the queue already and im glad to have the time and approaching the wellbeing to really lock in on my illustrations.

also plopped my server into its new home finally so over the next few days i will be able to resume lightcrystal offsite backups and set up some fresh CICD pipelines to put that recent dollctl work to practical use

as for now, it's time to settle into bed...

it's crazy how much of western esotericism comes down to cis dudes being either volcels or gooners but that's because everything is about desire

re: ph question

@Venefilyn no meat, sugar,or alcohol

also, to my great disdain, if i have too much cheese amd green chile in the same meal (like, take it easy on pizza) that will also trigger it

and finally, low quality or synthetic ingredients that may be contaminated with heavy metals or other weird stuff are another nono

i’m wearing an ankle-length blue jean skirt that makes it slightly hard to walk

so i’ve decided to just bunny hop around the house

it’s fucking fun!

THIS is the levity, the childlike whimsey, that conservative politicians fear so gravely

lil bunny girl hopping around her home is a threat to the structural power of capital

If a 15 year old on the other side of the world builds a botnet and defaces the wrong website US and Western polices forces will move heaven and earth to extradite a child.

But if a 40 year old white guy builds a multi-Billion dollar botnet powered IP theft ring and threatens us all with "world annihilation" we're expected to INVEST in to him.

Two systems be two systemsing.

its not like people like me are ignoring this aspect (capitalism as designed, it isnt rocket science), its that we see that a better way of life is possible and that there is value in investing in it now, not just waiting for the rest of yall to come around...

@gosha @vegancoder i also really enjoyed this talk and i think the "spreadsheets are turing complete" is NOT saying the tools dont matter, its saying the perception of the tools are subject to systemic bias

i particularly enjoyed the comparison of LLMs to chess engines. like, yeah, chess is a battle of wit between humans, and we have a reasonable social argument for not using chess engines in competition even though they are fit for purpose. wrt LLMs, the flow you described is just replacing one of the humans in pair programming with a bot, and yes it is arguably fit for purpose but there are many reasons we should prefer actual pair (or larger group) programming to it.

Real talk folks, is it ADHD when you are organizing your room, find a decrepit Nook that you previously hacked in the past to run #uxn Oquonie and decide impromptu to make some paspartú and frame it?

An old ebook reader, the rubber all gone to hell and without any functional buttons. A picture frame with the ebook in a happy new housing

but so i've done more robust name validation to avoid shell injection and directory traversal and also changed the filename the pipeline dockerfile is written to to avoid thrashing an existing dockerfile in the repo. i think we are going to be ready for our next release in a bit ^^

girlfriend made me oolong tea with honey to sip on while i hack (i am parked in her driveway)

love that woman so much T-T

ok ive been rotting long enough today. i guess i'll have a snack and hack on dollctl for a bit (have to put name validation on non-upsert operations and add a method to rerun a pipeline that, eg failed for something like transient network failure)

nilix posted 25 Sep 2026 14:44 +0000

feeling much better today

imagine i'll be able to function more or less normally tomorrow and be at baseline by monday =w=

feeling a lot better after binging gundam, napping, and sparingly using the osha and cough drops. still sick ofc, but a whole different vibe from this morning when i couldnt even swallow or speak too loudly without intense pain

nilix posted 24 Sep 2026 20:37 +0000

so i binged the two gundam hathaway films and... wow

the direction, the sound design, the emotion, the mecha...

looking forward to the third one in like 2 years lol

nap time...

nilix posted 24 Sep 2026 17:48 +0000

the thing i have dreaded since moving into the van has happened- got sick ><

so i didnt unmake the bed this morning, went and picked up cough drops and osha spray and snacks and some ramen, and now i will rot in my little sickness pod and finish Gundam Hathaway 🫠

#dollctl CICD is ready for prime time ^^

  • pipelines are basically just defined by a name and a dockerfile
  • they checkout the commit which triggered the run, write the dockerfile, and use podman to run it
  • results include start/end time, status, and standard output and error streams
  • runs are queued- the queue has a configurable number of lanes for running pipelines in parallel, and if the same pipeline is run in two lanes, they use a mutex to avoid thrashing each others container (which also uses this name)
  • resource names across the board are now validated according to a decently strict regex to make sure nothing stupid happens when shelling out
