I suppose, if my car’s wheel bearing had to die, I’d prefer for it to happen a few days before I drive out of state.

I’d still prefer that it didn’t happen at all, but here we are.

a screenshot of the youtube studio app. a video titled β€œchannel reboot” is the oldest, from 8 months ago. then there is a short from 8 months ago about electrolysis. the next three videos are titled β€œmechanical keyboard upgrades”, β€œframework 13 unboxing and setup”, and β€œbuilding a blu-ray ripping rig”

republicans decided to kill trans people (that’s what banning HRT would do to me), democrats said β€œhey, let’s not do that”, and somehow, it’s now the fault of trans people that more people will die of starvation.

republicans are telling you that they will kill trans people and anyone in their way.

The AI bubble cannot burst fast enough. It’s a neat technology for some problems but so many businesses are grasping at straws, desperate to say β€œwe use AI”, just because they feel it’s the only way to remain relevant.

even the show tried to rid him of his mortal coil one lung at a time. between kes’s trauma bond and seven’s nanoprobes, that creep has plot armor thicker than leola root stew.

Maybe, with me in charge, Tuvix and Carey will live, Paris and Janeway won’t abandon their lizard babies, and Kim will get a demotion (I said what I said).

I wish there was some degree of voice acting, even just clips from the show of a character saying someone’s name when addressing the player acting in that role.

The new star trek voyager game demo is pretty solid. 100% planning to buy and play this game when it’s officially released.

low-key the most magical thing about my new framework laptop is finally having a linux laptop which actually sleeps properly.

I’ll be posting a video of putting it together on youtube soon. and a follow-up after daily driving it for a while. but so far?

I just finished my first watch through 2 months ago. a lot of it does not.

my advice: skip everything that isn’t part of the alien arc (they’ve got a star next to them on the wikipedia episode list).

Apple needs to understand the difference between a nerd and a greek speaker. I do not need the greek dictionary; I do need access to the greek keyboard for math and physics purposes.

For some reason, watching a bunch of movies and shows centered around real-life engineering disasters helps make my job feel a lot more manageable.

First was Apollo 13,
I just wrapped up the Chernobyl,
and now it’s onto Titanic.

1) mosquitos attack my partner en masse
2) partner treats bug bites with cortizone
3) I somehow come into contact with that cortizone
4) I have an allergic reaction to that cortizone
5) itchy together! πŸ₯ΉπŸ˜­

a clear plastic tube containing several, small electronic components. each of them are white, clear, and blue. the tube is being held in someone’s hand against a gray background.

The last component needed for my upcoming mechanical keyboard video is currently in the sky. It took six days just to get to that point and still has to go through customs before it can get shipped to my apartment.

The first (full) video going up on my youtube channel since the reboot is going to be about these silly keyboards.

It would be trans content if the situation would just stop getting worse long enough for me to record πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

It should not be this hard to track down a set of basic keycaps. 100% ANSI, black with opaque white legends, OEM profile, MX stems.

FYI: not every trans person experiences gender dysphoria.

Our medical/legal system forces that pathologized diagnosis on us to medically/legally transition.

SCOTUS is allowing these states to deny our rights to medical/legal autonomy.

a close up of a man 's face with makeup on his eyes Alt: spock saying β€œmost illogical”

US trans people need a gender dysphoria diagnosis to access gender-affirming care.

The supreme court asserts that states banning gender-affirming care isn’t discrimination against trans people, just people with gender dysphoria.

So they can access the care but only if they don’t need it.

The upgrade was a success! AFTER

1) finding the correct (and undocumented) BIOS upgrade path
2) cleaning out crusty thermal paste - including some that dropped into the CPU socket holes
3) having to re-seat the upgraded RAM sticks
4) having to re-seat the GPU

benchmarking to follow.
