One of Tor's config options is called "FascistFirewall", which when set only creates outgoing connections through the already open 80 and 443 ports. Perfect way to connect when using the guest wifi in my heavily restricted office.

Also confirms that corporations are fascist, pass it on ;)

@jex 😂 At least my boss said it's all good

Mechanical keyboard with blue switches and open-back headphones. My co-workers must love me.

In my defense I haven't gotten any comments so it must not be that bad!

I fret too much sometimes on whether I should have coffee or tea in the morning... I always end up having the other later in the day anyway!

Nothing like breaking in a new pair of headphones with some of your favorite albums.

Sgt. Pepper, Pet Sounds, Pinkerton, Sheer Heart Attack, Rumors, and Melodrama queued up so far!

I finally got a hold of all my families old camcorder tapes as I've been meaning to ask for them for years to digitally transfer them before they degrade.

At the 2003 Halloween tape, a comment my dad had made to my grandmother definitely hit hard. She hated being filmed, and he was joking with her that in 20 years she'll want to see what happened then and how she looked. She passed away just over 12 years later. Fuck cancer.

Being able to roll back to a previous kernel is such an underrated feature when the comparisons start between Linux and Windows.

Kernel upgrade on Debian Testing borked my sound, previous kernel works perfectly 😌

I didn't think I'd like it much, but this winter-y "holiday" black tea is really, really good. I'm not usually a fan of extra flavors in my tea, but it's a good morning cup for sure. Perfect to have while looking over what systems I can code for :python:

#tea

Hopefully with the fediverse making a name for itself, along with other non-corporate projects, the mainstream can start to slowly move away from behemoths and realize the benefits to decentralization and self-hosting. Or at least towards the importance of privacy in the digital age.

@gingerrroot Making it easy makes sense though :P I'm slowly getting tempted to get Hulu because of the shows moving over

@gingerrroot I just wish it wasn't taken off of Netflix 😔 it was one of my go-tos to have on in the background

It's been a busy past few months, so hello again, Fediverse!

I did finally figure out though the issue I've been having with my home server. After reboots it'd be unable to connect to the network despite finding no issues with the SD card. Finally realized that the lack of logs meant that the boot process never completes. The issue? Lines in fstab for HDDs that weren't connected. Removed them and no more issues!

@GinnyMcQueen Finishing off my last serving of Sencha Overture today!

Protip to make unsuspecting people think you're doing something important:

Browse the web with Tor and keep open a terminal window running "tail -f /var/log/tor/debug.log"

#linux #tor #cli

Been trying out the Pulse keycaps that finally arrived this past weekend. I was so used to XDA and DSA profiles that SA is kinda awkward to use. Doesn't help that I didn't opt for the actual ortholinear modifiers (because I wanted symbols to go along with the rams) so the lower row isn't flatter like they should be.

You know you've spent too much time working in pandas when you try to see if a string contains a word by doing

foo.str.contains('bar') instead of
'bar' in foo
