uh is there some Firefox plugin that will let me change what typeface an arbitrary website uses? I'd like to use a bigger font without changing the layout in other ways (which is what happens if you try just..naively scaling)

of course I can't access the Windows file sharing network from Xubuntu no matter what I try

goddamn it @kara_dreamer@plural.cafe you did it again! what am I gonna have to do to you

I'll fess up to being the Eagles fan in @kara_dreamer@plural.cafe's system

they're cheesy boomer rock and I get a kick out of 'em

I don't suppose those old "Computer Recreations" columns from Scientific American are scanned in anywhere

in which a wigglytuff subtoots, yet again 

i mean honestly

if your partner says the only way they can work through their trauma and get mental wellness is to not be in a relationship with you

i swear this makes me want to make a Highlights For Children style cartoon

GALLANT is sad but loves their partner and wants them to get help and recovery!

GOOFUS minimizes their partner's stated needs and is concerned mostly about not being in a relationship with them!

opened one pack. there's a vague Norse theme. there's a horse named Viking, and another named Thor!

huh what should I do with these packs of Bella Sara cards that Kara got? open 'em all at once, one at a time...

woohoo got some gtk super basic stuff working. first code I've done in...heck, who knows

bleh, should I really be plugging away with C? it's the language I know best but it's not...great

(and because I didn't build the system of course I don't know what's in it, exactly)

of course something's not working now. onboard audio now borked. yay Linux

ok if I wanna do gtk stuff then Xubuntu makes some sense. it's kinda of a local minimum when it comes to free operating systems. it's not great but it's less annoying than a lot of other choices

wow uh this is turning in a trainwreck

just gonna have to reinstall at this point. trying to modify the Ubuntu installation in-place has given me a system without predictable behavior. woo, the future of computing!

imitating the MacOS X Dock? that was like one of the worst ideas ever
