Hi Blue Sky. I usually don't get too personal about things on socials, so I wanted to say I am looking for work as a software engineer since I got laid off two months ago. So if you have any recommendations for jobs I would be open to them.

Nvim Treesitter reinstalls parser every time Neovim starts I’m in the process of migrating existing Neovim plugins managed by Packer to a new plugin manager called β€˜Lazy’. While setting the nvim-treesitter plugin, I came across this issue that nvim-treesitter...

If you ever install treesitter going from packer to lazy in your nvim config. This article helped me so much in solving the quirk where if you transfer your config to lazy it reinstalls every parser: blog.khmersite.net/p/nvim-trees...

Blue Dragon is one of my favorite childhood JRPGs of all time.

It is scary. Definitely my advice on the ride home is to have the seat all the way back if someone is taking you home. It helps to lay down on car rides. Just remember you will have medical professionals around you the entire time.

Oh first time? It differs from person to person. But for me it's like waking up with a hangover after a party unfortunately. But the feeling of that goes away within a few hours.

Though take solace in that you'll be surrounded by medical professionals that will help you with your every need.

Amazing cart. I especially love the steam deck in there. I have been playing Slay the Spire on mine while I recover.

Wish ya the best recovery. I am going through surgery recovery myself for about 2 months and have one more to go. You can do it! πŸ’ͺ

I am swapping to building my own at this point and going to use TrueNAS. I'll get more freedom to do what I want with the hardware. Also struggling to erase the hardrives I own because they are encrypted by my Synology.

It always confuses me when games use "c" for crouch.

No I have not. I just started to learn. Unfortunately my time is shot with me loosing my job that I was using to do that sort of thing. But I plan to get back on it soon. I have ideas for my first game.
