@icedquinn Oof that's odd.
Msys meaning mingw? That shouldn't involve cygwin, that sounds like a $PATH problem.
@icedquinn One of my friends said that someone tried to sell her coke in college as a powdered wight loss drug.
@icedquinn msys2? Last time I tried I was really impressed.
#PeerTube has a #live feature now btw! Try it out some time

@icedquinn That doesn't sound hard to write. (granted I've never once played the sims) Isn't it pretty much a super simple CAD program with E-pets that walk around your drawing?
@deutrino I don't get all the hate for gimp. It even works well on my phone. I'm not some crazy heavy photo editor but it runs fast (once it's done loading all its plugins) and works well and the UI is intuitive enough.

@icedquinn IME it always seemed more popular among women than men but I wasn't sure if that was just my friends or not.
@freemo One thing I like about bitcoin mining is that it scales down to doing it by hand. The proof of storage thing doesn't look like it does that.

What?

@freemo
I really wish I had the wisdom to do that 10 years ago.
@lucifargundam
@lucifargundam @freemo I bought one forever ago but I used a very strong (like 50 base64 digits) password and I lost the piece of paper I wrote it down on... I could have just retired and done whatever I wanted. This is why I don't encrypt my personal ssh keys anymore.
@fatboy There are lots of other mail providers and it's easy to host your own.
Also just putting .html in /var/www is a great alternative to twitter/mastodon/facebook.
The iOS vs Android thing is pretty bad but the pinephone also exists as long as you can handle missing lots of calls.

Email mastodon+swiley@swiley.net (this makes all of my computers beep and turn on an indicator light and is always the fastest way to reach me.) I was on octodon a while ago but abandoned my account. I've never been a member of gab or parlor.
If you’d like to learn to program I would consider the SICP [1] more or less the peak of American CS pedagogy (at least as far as beginners go) along with “The Practice of Programming” once you get through that.
I play ukulele, I’m ok at reading music and decent at improv. I learned from Walter Piston’s “Harmony” and some of Adam Neely’s videos.
My main phone is a pine phone so if I don’t pick up when you call the battery is probably dead, the modem is probably dead, or I’m currently swearing at calls/pulseaudio/alsa. I’d strongly recommend sending an email instead.
Dispite what my web page says I’ve stopped uploading my scratch projects to GitHub once I started to understand the basics of collaboration with git. I was using the flamegraph as gamification/motivation but it doesn’t work as well with feature branch/squash merge workflows so I just keep most things on my VPS until I’m happy with publishing updates.
