I tried to connect but they needed letters from two psychiatrists and evidence that I’ve been using wifi for two years
big announcement for Friday: I have acquired a datacenter that has not been touched since approximately 2002, and is FULL of old 80s/90s/2000s IBM mainframe equipment. mainframes, disk arrays, tape drive strings, network processor boxes, and more!

all will be photographed (and posted here), also videographed!

the equipment is being moved to my place, where pubvm.org will be ran on an actual IBM System/370 mainframe!!!!

this is a six-sigma event, this is unfathomable rarity omg

we're destroying the open web

we're burning down the closest thing i've ever seen in my life to the library of alexandria

and people are explaining to me how warm it keeps their hands, and maybe, in the future, the ashes will contain the secrets of the universe

PSA:

Direct all screams to The Void.
Do not, I repeat, DO NOT, under any circumstances, scream into a colander.
You'll strain your voice if you do that.

Gosh, always a pleasant surprise when my light bulbs decide they no longer want to work with the app that manages them because the manufacturer released a firmware update silently disabling that. (Thankfully, with the option to re-enable it, but finding out why and how took a while)
Oh, this is in another corner

Oh hey, it’s the WTYP sync point

Is it pluralphobic to name myself after a fictional character who isn’t an introject (if that’s the right way of phrasing it?)?

> finally get a hire car for a work trip rather than taking mine
> have to take it back to get them to open the charge port as it’s jammed
> go to charge it the night before
> have lost key
> spend evening looking for key, fail
> looks like I’m taking my car after all

Why am I like this?
