Rocknix is a linux distro that targets 'retro handhelds' like Retroid and Anbernic. Those devices normally run Android, which is currently in full fuck-you mode, so if I were to buy a retro handheld I would be running Rocknix on it instead.
However, bad news: I asked in the Rocknix discord if i can count on them to take an anti-fascist stance, and their response was, in a word, "no".
Specifically, I asked if they were centrist, they gave me a "no politics" warning, which is a pretty clear answer to that.
If anyone else on the team wants to correct me, I'll gladly edit this post.
if you want to express your displeasure with framework knowingly sponsoring fascists, don't bother @-ing their Mastodon account (they won't read it)
email them or post on their forums instead:
if you've bought a framework laptop in the past, give them your order number so they know you're not just talking shit, let them know they're going to be losing out on customers because of this shit decision
I figured out how to make the client-side library work. The MGR client-server architecture is really clever, it really is graphical terminal emulator. Wowsers.
having a nice chill-out to the music from Sega Swirl on Dreamcast. It's got a latter-day Weather Channel feel to it, more emphasis on live instruments than a lot of WC-esque music tends to give. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTp3G21vS6M
Okay, now we're talking. Far from being done, but talking. This thing is animated. I'd better record a video tour later.

I should eat something. I don't want to get out of the chair or decide what to eat, though. We have tons of leftovers and I want none of them. I do not know what I want instead.
My day started with us attempting to partially disassemble a NordicTrack treadmill to, ideally, sell off to another family we know. Unfortunately, we failed to get it out the door; just too bulky and too many things failing. So the choice was made to give up and "sell it with the house."
I don't think that's why I feel so exhausted, though. Physically, I'm tired, but spiritually and emotionally too. Mentally, my batteries are buzzing and need to be spent a bit. I'm out of sync with myself.
