smb over a transcontinental vpn connection has got to be one of the slowest ways to transfer files

for like a decade i used a mac. i used mac OS every day. it aspires to perfection. in fact, unlike other computer software, it actually aspires to be good. but it can not succeed. the task is impossible. mac OS is a failure. i jumped ship, and embraced chaos. i recommend that you also embrace chaos. nothing will ever work properly and you know it. admit it to yourself. switch to windows, switch to linux. they're equally chaotic. your computer will be worse, but your life will be better

i need a wireless mouse that has 2 usb adapters and a button on it to switch between each like a kvm

icymi… i put together a curation of zines! they are each special in their own way ✨ itch.io/blog/477768/a-curation
most of them run in the browser (digital zines! yay!) and many you can print & fold yourself.
enjoy these beautiful bite sized pieces of literature! 💕😎✂️📝✨

the phrase "rock out with your cock out" keeps worming its way back into my brain like a fuckin cognitohazard

@eurritz computer fairies is at least still online

maybe it'll become colorful again one day

@RyunoKi yes something like that! i didn't know (and didn't really spend time searching) there was already functionality that could dynamically modify html responses

i'll play with it a bit and see where i get :)

mastodon needs granular features to disable replies and likes

i can't believe twitter got there first limiting who can reply to a post

@KBaileyBooks there's only so many times i can hear, "stranger has favourited ⭐​ your post 'everything sucks so much and i want to die'"

@KBaileyBooks or maybe you can be a little more personal and offer words rather than the complacency of an easily misinterpreted action that you're enjoying someone else's suffering

for how much the advocates for regarding scraping toots et al you lot sure get prickly when i tell you that i don't want my negative posts favourited

@ScottSoCal nope i specifically dislike people enjoying that i'm having a bad time and that is the only thing likes and favourites transmit to me no matter what their true intents are

i want an nginx module that adds a banner above all my hosted websites if the user is trying to load from a chrome(ium) browser to get them to switch to Firefox instead
