I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Ask me anything.

Special skills include: Knowing all the “na na na nah nah nah na” parts of the Three’s Company theme.

I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

  • I’m now running 9 of the Dell equivalents to those, and they’re doing well. Average 15-20 watts at normal load and usually no more than 30-35 watts running full tilt. 5 of them are unprovisioned but I got a good deal on them for $25/each so I couldn’t pass them up :shrug:.

    Attempting to cable-manage the power bricks for more than 1 of these is the worst part of using them. The only life pro tip I can offer is to ditch the power bricks and buy a 65W USB-C power delivery adapter that’s in the “wall wart” style and also one of the USB-C to Lenovo power adapter cords. Those make cable management so much better.

  • As an ex-smoker who hates the smell of cigarettes probably more than non-smokers ever will, I don’t disagree in theory. But we shouldn’t stop with just assaults to one sensory perception. In for a penny in for a pound as they say.

    Loud-ass exhausts, booming subwoofers, and other assaults on the ears should also be banned in public. Strong colognes and perfumes…also banned in public.

    Ugly sweaters, poor fashion choices, and shitty cars with anime girls painted on the side? You guessed it: They’re assaults on the eyes and should be banned in public

    Or we could just deal with the fact that other people like things we don’t like.
