I'm planning on making a comeback. The summary is that my immune system is trash. I've "accepted" that my life will never be normal and pain is part of it, attempting to numb it only makes things worse. The mind pills my psychiatrist prescribed were definitely fucking me up real bad and causing super negative suicidal thoughts so I'm staying far away from any mind altering drugs.
No more LSD, amphetamines, psilocybin, DMT, Ritalin, alcohol or antidepressants. Fuck all of that. From now on, meditation and exercise only. Accept suffering. Work with what I got.
@be @deavmi Not if you're using pancurses, unfortunately. There are plenty of other examples to show rust isn't immune. It's not that rust is bad, but if you think your code is inherently secure and safe from crashes because it's "memory safe" or "statically typed", then you're gonna learn some hard and painful lessons.
Hello! I am mirabellensaft. I am a non-binary polyamorous embedded #rust developer. I love painting with #watercolor, #urbansketching, #knitting, #chemistry #cooking and general making and tinkering with stuff.
So, I just learned something new. The #fediverse is not just connected #mastodon instances, but actually consists of several different software platforms, all connecting via the same federating protocol! I had seen references to things like #peertube and #nextcloud, but assumed they were different platforms running on different protocols, but it turns out they're all part of the same fediverse, unified by #ActivityPub. Amazing!
Last year I started to really get into more complex backgrounds. Especially urban areas, perspective and less "natural" sceneries were what I wanted to challenge myself at. So I drew my #OCs (as I always do) in their natural surroundings - a modern urban city filled with #graphicdesign puns and references!
I think I actually got some kind of coherent story out of it - completely unplanned!

Hey, I'm Natalie. lifelong #Programmer by hobby, trade & education. I've got a strong interest in #GameEngine #Programming and #Gameplay. Currently work as a #SoftwareEngineer on #Underwater comms and #Drones. My fav language is #Rust - I also use #Cpp and #Typescript.
Trying to learn #drawing and #art. I also do #woodworking #blacksmithing #camping #YoYos occasionally.
I'll be posting about the #Projects I'm working on, or what #Music I've been listening to.
A tip for new Mastodon users...
Check out your instance's (i.e. server's) local timeline to find some people to follow. Follow them for a bit and you should find others to follow.
It'll be a bit quiet at first because there aren't all the adverts and promoted nonsense you might expect if you came from Twitter.
After a couple of weeks, your home timeline should be a steady stream of interesting toots.
(Hide the boosts of any users you still want to follow, but who boost too much.)
I meant to say **liberal communist Christians** since just being Christian doesn't make you an outsider.

I believe there's a chance we might unknowingly be in an interstellar war in which the first consciousness to spread itself throughout the universe will dictate how consciousness is experienced until the heat death of the universe. Thus, it's my duty as a human-derived consciousness to ensure that whatever survives this war is a consciousness compatible with our notions of justice so that future conscious descendants of our species may enjoy the same benefits (or more) than we currently have. This belief has several practical implications day-to-day for me; my utility function is to maximize the chance that human-derived consciousness survives long enough into the future (until the universe allows so).
