PLEASE BOOST.

I have a small request, Fediverse. Yes, it's silly, but I could really use a little boost with all that's going on lately in the world, so:
Can we get my follower count up to 666? Please? Indulge this silly goth girl, won't you, and make my weekend?💜

I feel like today's SMBC was written for @simon: https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/prompt

What the hell #mozilla?

Alright that's creepy. I keep a list of books I've read at https://www.tristanhavelick.com/books/

Somehow, github copilot was able to successfully predict the book that I am currently reading

Tristan Havelick -- Books

@simon Not sure if I should open a ticket in the repo for something that's not really your fault, but it looks like httpx had a release that broke openai's python library and thereby llm. I was able to work around it with: uvx --with='httpx==0.27' llm "hello world"
Sometimes I look at my fedi feed toward the end of the day, and I scroll along and I hit stuff I've read earlier that day. This is a feature, not a bug.
@ActionRetro I'm watching your video about realBasic game programming. I just bought a Thinkpad X1 Carbon to replace my 2017 surface (yay for repairability)! Cool to see you using it as your modern machine
Where do people hang out these days on #irc? I read about people on fedi and on the small web, saying they were inspired to write based on a conversation they had on irc, but when I go on, most networks are filled with people idling and not saying anything. I'd love a place centered around science, climate change or general technical nerdery to make some new friends
well, my home server is back online. I'd really like to figure out a way to make it so the damn thing would stay up when I go out of town. Of course every time it's a different issue, but it's still frustrating. Maybe I need to set up a redundant server at a friend's house or something #homeserver #selfhosted
