by posting a blog post on the fediverse and having my blog catalogue user agents, I now get a view into every single instance that federates with mine, because apparently every instance puts their url in the user agent?!

I now have a build system for my immigration documents that takes 20 seconds to run, and from individual docs:

  • converts cover pages (ODT) to PDF
  • compresses scanned PDFs
  • combines cover pages and scanned pages into groups of documents
  • gives me a neatly arranged final directory with good filenames, good filesizes, stuff that I can upload directly onto the ontario immigration website
  • how do normal people do this man

    strap in, we're installing texlive-full texlive and texlive-lang

    I had to get off and avoid stepping over the dog for that, and in the process of doing that I slammed my backpack bottom first into a seat with enough force to hear a metal on metal clunk

    it would be so funny if I turn out to have destroyed my two week old laptop over being a people pleaser

    I'm in a streetcar and I said "that's fine" to a dog being right next to my feet because I'm too agreeable, but also I'm afraid of dogs so AAAAAAAA
