@Dekken Computers keep teaching me its faster to just go with my gut or heuristics and then only complicate things later down the line, but I keep not learning my lesson. lol

@Dekken Yep. Honestly when I saw the socket line, I was like, "Hm.. The path specification here seems to look like a relative path by linux standards, within which the socket file doesn't exist. But since I'm dealing with servers and symbolic links are a thing and so on, who knows." I should've just gone with my instinct from the get-go instead of second-guessing. This would've been solved much earlier.

Got PHP7.0 working... It was actually a simple path mistake causing all my problems. I guessed this was it at first but didn't want to take my chances given I was using the default fastcgi/php settings in the NGINX server block.

@h That's nice of you. I live in the Anglosphere rn, and it's about time the pseudo-intellectual elite commits suicide.

@h I'd like to see at least slightly more of that finger-licking content on my tl for schadenfreude.

I'm tired of good articles with shit titles/headlines. Plz try good articles with good titles/headlines.

@How2io I feel like the UI of business-level/enterprise copy machines were made in such a way that it requires the user to waste at least some paper.

@How2io Iktf. In my case, I couldn't for the life of me get the scanner/copier to put two pages on a single side of a sheet.

@dax But yeah. I'm lucky in that other people don't consult me regarding computer probs at least. It's funny on a metacognitive level when I'm struggling with something computer-related but that's theoretically simple though, 'cuz it manages to break their illusions. lol

Oh. Also,
>tfw you're prototypically "good" w/ computers to the average person but you sometimes struggle using the school copy machine

It's a good thing I don't actually have to buy too many books this Semester--hopefully--because I can just get the ones my professors put on reserve at the school library and photocopy the relevant material.

@Monochrome @rizele The influence of Puritanism on those things are a lot easier to trace than with aesthetics, which might actually make this an interesting topic to look into. I should probably look for a book called "History of American Aesthetics" or hope someone makes one.

@rizele @Monochrome I wonder where this comes from. Yeah, we can be like, "oh, American pragmatist ideology that's skewed towards efficiency, and that's also in harmony with capitalism." But that seems too easy, and there are many things we do inefficiently despite (or even ironically because of) that ideology. Should I go ahead and trace it all the way back to Puritan aesthetics?

@Monochrome Don't we all. Don't be 2 harsh on yourself! Tho sometimes we fail at that too.

@Monochrome OH CRAP I MISSED THE PUN. nnnooooooooo. How am I supposed to enjoy it now. :cry_kosaki: I have failed you and myself.

@Monochrome Compare and contrast. https://niu.moe/media/5cpNZ8j3bQFoUQIydWk https://niu.moe/media/zJlNSZ8Vkj7ymRlD4ws
