Not really using fedi anymore.

I would like to take this post to formally announced my retirement from fedi.

I joined when my life was mostly trying to figure out how to distract myself from depression, and when I spent most of my time with Linux, video games and looking at Japanese shit.

Fact of the matter is, fedi is very small, and only a certain demographic usually comes here.

I grow tired of the stupid culture war and political correctness. I grow tired of Linux being work.
I grow tired of lacking advanced social skills.

Japan has too much karōshi and too many weebs I'd have to complete with to move there. I think I finally found a country I think would be best for me. I'm hoping to move to Taiwan. And mandarin is a pain. I don't regret my time I spent ricing Arch of fucking about with CentOS, but I want to spend my time doing more real life stuff.

As much as I like privacy and stuff, I like girls more. They means not being an autist. Not missing out on dating apps because they need real Google play services instead of microg. I won't go full normie, otherwise my life will become very annoying due to the other side of the Extreme.
I'll keep root on my android. I continue to use DDG instead of Google. Shit like that. But no more disassembling the phone to remove the antenna because I don't trust airplane mode to protect me from cell Tower trilateration.

Honestly? I'm going to spend my time learning Chinese , exploring this capital city I live in for now, and screwing hookers. Going into town, taking to random people.
Maybe actually go to a proper nightclub instead of a pub or something.
I'll play more video games with my friend, instead of blowing them off because wine/proton/VFIO wasn't working...

Oh, and fuck ThinkPads. I love the idea of them, but they're a meme. Honestly, I don't think I'll get any x86 laptop. I don't need one, and Intel / AMD security holes are annoying. Intel ME exists too. Maybe some nice ARM laptop night be nice for web browsing. Idk...

This is, again, kind of unstructured, and most of you probably won't care. In the end, maybe this post is mostly for myself.

Anyway, it's been fun. Fesi is a cool project. I hope that someday it'll be more widely used.

さようなら〜

Hey anyone who speaks Japanese (or is enough weaboo to use a Japanese input method):

Why does 'n' barely work?
Typing n usually gives me the Latin character, but typing nn finally gives me ん。

What gives?
@st_in @Tusky for me twitter only shows it 50% of the time lol

Still 100% more than Tusky 🙃
@Tusky @st_in I think they mean adding an option to translate posts from users who post in other languages.

For example, Twitter (sometimes) recognizes that a post may be in Japanese and offers the option to translate it.

Something like that would be pretty useful in tusky too.
@billstclair @robcolbert @4hh3h3h3h33hb2 @Gargron well with Linux they may choose not to ship things I'm their repositories but that's their choice. People can still chose to add their own repositories or install files manually, same as on Android.

The link just leads you to a 'coming soon' page :/

I'm a high school dropout that has never taken any CS or computer classes.

Web development is just a hobby of mine, I work in the auto industry.

I'm so proud of this project, I never would have imagined that I could make something like this.

Thank you for helping me realize credentialism isn't so important as you think. ❤️ 

Is there a better term for "the real world" than "meatspace"?

"The real world" implies that our digital augmentations of it and the friends we make there are not "real".

and "meatspace" is just kinda silly.
