Gender isn’t a binary. It’s a nullable floating point

#introductions I play with circuits for a living. I play videos games for fun. I don't usually have enough time for the latter. I've had to move a lot for work and don't have many close friends in meatspace. I struggle with social anxiety and making friends because I've been afraid of being myself most of my life. It's hard to make friends by "just being yourself" when you're not even being yourself to yourself. I'm tired of that game so here I am. Hi 😀

I have so much hackery shit, Raspberry Pis galore, but I'm still not self hosting my Git repos. Or properly backing my things up, hmm

I've been poking around with a #pinebookpro for a few days. I'm used to working in Debian so Arch/Manjaro is a new experience. I don't feel like I'm getting better at any one distro but more equally bad at everything

Mmmm, nothing quite like unboxing a nice heavy stack of fresh PCBs. I can’t breath the air outside but at least I have this

GOTO in C# is a feature to help identify people who shouldn’t be using C#

I think C# is a perfectly fine language. What’s not fine are vendors who provide C# example code that is actually an imported library written in C and the “example” is a single 1000 line long function.

Hot take: JK Rowling is novelist Elon Musk

Welp, Coronavirus is officially in my area. Brb, gonna buy some Corona since that’s probably all that’s left by now and then pick up some Chinese food because fuck it and the line is probably short

Clearly the solution is to abolish corporate social media entirely

There’s a large grocery store chain in my country that got sued for anti-trust and had to sell a bunch of stores to a regional/local competitor. They intentionally botched the sale and transfer of the stores so badly that the competitor was never able to get the stores operating again properly and had to declare bankruptcy. The same chain that sold them the stores then buys the entire competitor business. I feel like FB will try something like this if they ever get broken up into smaller corps
