@rbrown okay, that’s easier then. Fishing that cable out, and then remembering which string of profanity and random button smashing makes my monitor decide to let me choose the input can be time consuming. Shouldn’t take long to set the displays to join and See What Happens.

@rbrown I’ll give it a shot today and let you know. I don’t join or mirror myself. I do use the HDMI directly with my current EC (the one from my fork), but I use it as the only display. I think I left the USB-C to DP cable plugged in too so I can try both.

Well, I made it. The critical set of Bash madness was ported to a new host with a large set of bug fixes such that it now works on purpose. It’s been accidentally working for years. I have to wonder why one sees things like `/home/$USER/yolo` or optional parameters passed around as $optiona through $optionp (okay Bash arrays are awful but come on). Copy pasta of the same block in 24 different files, all of which also source things and contain functions. I don’t have whiskey. Beer will have to do

@Gina I have been informed that I have plans on the 4th but mayhaps another day is possible?

@Gina September I assume or are you holding out and keeping a time machine from all of us!?

@Gina I don’t like bouldering enough to do it without someone else asking me to soooo

Wish me luck as I embark on a time sensitive rewrite of dangerously bad Bash that is unfortunately mission critical. I will require whiskey at the end of this regardless of the outcome.

Started knitting another shawl today. First big item I’ve cast on in a very long time. Makes hours fly by.

@kyle that’s pretty cool. Definitely need to start making hand mined bitcoin now.

Once I got into a rhythm this actually came together very quickly. Made two singles and plied them together.
Using the old €20 wheel from the kringloopwinkel to spin some Norwegian wool. This stuff has very straight, long, and fairly sharp fibers and is definitely not going to yield a next to skin yarn but I’ll come up with something to do with it.

The ol' bump deps and rev projects dance is done again. Third time now that I've said "I ought to automate this process" - and I have a placeholder project that might just fit the bill for the right way to do it.

@VincentTunru I already offered @Gina the opportunity to live in TX for free and even pay her gym membership if she’ll make me bitterballen. All she has to do is become tolerant to months above 40C heat indices with 100% humidity, give up any thoughts of ever riding a bicycle to a grocery store (or anywhere else) ever again, and be Fine with the fact the healthcare system is fundamentally broken. We do have amazing tacos though.

@Gina I mean idek tbh but one is always suspicious of the food of one’s own people being made by An Outsider! I am always down for tacos. Let’s do it! We actually will be in Amsterdam on like the 6/7th for some appointments so that could be an opportunity

@Gina but wtf you gonna make the tacos with the tortillas at AH/Jumbo are offensively bad like on the level that what Americans claim is Gouda must offend the Dutch.

Though I do like the plan and will teach you how to make tortillas that do not suck if you wish it so.
