i was sick of typing cd into my terminal, pasting in a path, and then realizing that i had actually copied a whole cd command that no longer worked because it started with cd cd. spent a few minutes putting this in my .bash_aliases file

"but holly now you can't go into a folder called cd" sure i can. cd cd cd

you come to MY house. fuck MY wife

noticing that my posts on foss lex are getting reactions except for the one that asks "do you believe in me"

took some steps today without a walker or anything. just genuinely walked a little bit

every day that 2km distance to the convenience store and back feels a little shorter

@Rasp like a class?

there's obviously a lot more you can do with classes (and there are shortcuts for classes that only do stuff like this) but this is kind of the most barebones use case

update on this

i'm so tempted to go "fuck it, you know what, sure. let's do it"

the 2x4 lego brick is more useful, but the 2x3 lego brick is more intrinsically beautiful. it's a more pleasing ratio

the one universal experience of my generation, the one thing that binds us all together, is trying to get an address out of someone my dad's age

"you need to head left onto main"

"i just need an address"

"18 furlongs that way, turn north"

"i just need an address and i don't know which way north is"

"after that just head straight until you feel a deep sense of inexplicable longing, then left again"

"i just need an address"

in the building on ultrakill's gm_construct, there's this blocked-off door. if you noclip through it, you'll find a terminal. and if you read that terminal...

there's a really funny easter egg in ultrakill that has to do with the sandbox mode

the sandbox is designed to look almost identical to gm_construct, the default gmod map. (it's actually not any one version of construct, it pulls elements from a few different versions to try to be reminiscent of the "platonic" gm_construct, the one hakita thinks of when he thinks "gm_construct")

i laughed really really hard when i saw this, but it's actually not the easter egg i mean...

dude this skirt is so fucking goated. i discovered a new trick it can do

haha you believed me

yeah, you could say i'm into "home automation"

it's endlessly funny to me that humanity FIRST figured out how to show pictures on a screen by using carefully calibrated and timed electromagnets to sweep an electron beam of varying intensity across a glass panel coated in phosphor thousands of times a second, and SECOND put a bunch of lights in a rectangle

the other day i was losing it trying to find the "the water goes up" post so now i'm posting in with the text "the water goes up" so i'll find it next time i search "the water goes up"

i saw a video once that basically said "don't confuse patterns in how things behave with causes of those behaviours"

the example that was given was the classic "why does a figure skater's spin speed up when they bring their arms in?"

if you ask that you'll often hear "because the angular momentum of the system has to be conserved" but the video argued that that's not why. it's true but it's not a cause of anything, it's an observation we made about behaviours. and he gave an explanation of an actual mechanism by which bringing their arms in speeds them up, showing afterwards that it conserves angular momentum

i think about it a lot

new conlang: french

i saw a post one time like

PEOPLE TODAY: hahaha all these weird memes will confuse future archeologists xD

FUTURE ARCHEOLOGISTS: *sobbing* why is there so much plastic. jesus christ it's in their bones

@sakasato so true!!
