Thinking of my browser tabs as conference talk rooms helps with managing them, somehow.
“A talk on this would be vaguely interesting, but not worth my time” - close the tab.
“I might want to check out a recording of this talk later” - bookmark and close it.
“Worth listening to right here and now” - read the article/use the tool/process the tab right now.

Procrastination is a super-motivater. I can get anything done, as long as it’s helping me procrastinate from some other task.

(I was just waiting for it to cool down a bit. She just finished eating it.)

It’s cute how my dog cannot believe there’s tasty food in the room and it’s not already in her mouth. She’s like “what is this iNjUStiCe? how can this be allowed??!”

Oh KDE!
Just had Plasma crash on me. Typed out a bug report, installed debug symbols, created a bugs.kde account, … and there’s an “Error submitting your bug report” (with no further details). And then the crash handler program “DrKonqi” itself hangs, and has to be force-terminated. At that point it crosses over from a sad state of affairs to just being funny.

I know that a lot of people have the opposite experience, but I have rarely experienced these famed “stability problems” on Windows, and certainly not to the level I’ve experienced them on Linux over many many years.

The fifth time I’ve had to hard reboot my system, after having installed Linux. Looks like I’m dual-booting Windows after all, this Linux-only experiment has run for months and has had its fun parts, but the results are clear.

When there’s news about bad decisions by a company/org, reading the Hacker News comments helps calm me down. I realize “at least these dumbasses aren’t in charge, so it’s not as bad as it could be”.
