i made a version of wikipedia you can doomscroll xikipedia.org

(1/2) so just in case the gravity of the RAM shortage hasn't fully sunk in yet here's all consumer tech affected by the AI boom + resulting shortages: - RAM modules (ofc) - graphics cards (they have VRAM) - CPUs (they have cache) - SSDs (similar chips to RAM) - HDDs (AI data centers buying in bulk)

i don't want to be too much of a doomer on here. i know this site is an escape for a lot of people. i understand how important it is to have that. but man it feels like everything has been collapsing over the last year. the internet, economy, government... it's difficult for me to feel any hope rn.

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

at this point i have lost faith in US shipping services to be able to deliver packages. i have had 3 packages not get delivered to me this year alone for various reasons

i ordered something on eBay at the end of October, and it finally shipped 1.5 months later. wtf is going on with USPS lool

Have to make sure this video is on this website

came to the realization that i have never truly felt happy about myself in my life. not really. sometimes approval from others can just barely let me feel good enough, and "normal" it's a bit exhausting. hopefully therapy can help me push through this bc WOW life will be hard if i'm unable to

and now i learn Crucial isn't selling RAM to consumers anymore?? usually i buy RAM from them, i literally bought from them this year. wtf is happening

you know it had to be done

Mozart has "no plans" to compose music for the next 'Mario' game. This is because he died on December 5th, 1791.

amazing shitpost

i have a raspberry pi 3a+ for backups with rsync and syncthing it was running raspberry pi os lite but it was still a bit slow and sometimes ran out of memory... swapped over to dietpi today and WOW it is faster omg

i really want to move out of my parents' house without getting into anything too specific i love my family but i'm in my mid 20s and having to still live with them is slowly driving me insane

oh my god

i threw an SSD and MX Linux onto a 15 year old laptop and omg it's so much faster than i expected MX is the goat it even grabbed the legacy nvidia 390xx driver for the ancient gt 550m in there

and now i just learned that installing affinity on linux is as easy as installing an appimage. i did this and it was up and running in a few minutes. very seamless and easy... linux is changing so fast all the time goddamn github.com/ryzendew/Aff...

i just learned that drag-and-dropping samples into VSTs has finally been fixed on the linux version of REAPER before if you tried, the sample would just go into your project. never thought they'd bother to fix, but here we are how did i not know this? when did this happen?? well thanks i guess LOL

i finished the voiceover and it's like 30 minutes... this is probably going to take a lot longer than i thought LOL

slapped grapheneos on my pixel 9a and also banished google play services and uninstalled a bunch of unnecessary apps (or moved them to a secondary profile that i usually disable) now it has like 2 day battery life loool

haven't been able to work on it since bc work is so crazy rn but hopefully i can get it out next week 🤞

i'm working on a Video Essay™ i guess i'd call it that? the subject matter is a surprise... i'm already like 7 pages into writing the script but unfortunately i gotta sleep

idk why i made this

Last call - we are only short on N64, GBA, and MD/Genesis.

if you have not tried journaling, i recommend it! i suppose it isn't for everyone, but it's been helping me deal with some stuff you don't even need a physical journal, i just use voice memos and transcribe them later if you're at all like me, having a private place like that to vent is SO helpful

'clean it up' by itself improved my opinion on hazbin hotel season 2 by at least 10%

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok

the world keeps trying to sell me things and i keep having to be like, you need to give me a job so i can get money if you want me to buy things

for a second i thought this was a silly ironic parody making fun of ICE but yea no it's actually real they turned the pokemon theme song into propaganda i hate this timeline

i burned a capcut free trial to make this

not sure how many people know about this, but i just remembered about the game We Become What We Behold, that game about squares and circles that start killing each other because of a toxic news cycle. i played it again and wow. it's just getting more and more relevant as time passes. ggs

might be a hot take but furry haters r usually sm more annoying than actual furries i ain't trying to start shit w this guy specifically, i don't really care that much i'm just saying it's something i've noticed generally although i may be a bit biased (am a furry) so take that with what you will.

i was bored
