Weird thing about Social media or dare I say, being a ~Brand~ or even ~~Influencer~~ is you're supposed to show exactly ONE side, or less, to the world.

I'm supposed to JUST be the guy who plays romhacks. Or the guy who streams Jackbox. Or the guy who streams YTP reaction streams.

You can't be all of those. Much less have OTHER hobbies you ALSO talk about. You're supposed to be the ONE guy who does the ONE thing.

I just can't do that 🤷‍♀️ I know it hurts my yt channel but...can't do it.

I was playing a lot more online quickplay today, and I'm wondering:

If someone is being rude/toxic/a bad sport/whatever to you in an match online, what do you think you should do back?

Do you follow someone, and you enjoy their posts but they boost too much stuff?

You can mute just their boosts if you want:

1. Open your Mastodon app or log in through your server’s website
2. Go to the profile of the person whose boosts you want to hide
3. Click on the ︙or ⋯ button at the top and select Hide Boosts From... (or Hide Reblogs on some apps)
4. If you change your mind, go back to their profile and select Show Boosts From… (or Show Reblogs)

My knitting machine clock, Tempus Nectit, is complete! I advanced it to the current time and mounted it on the wall. The white section is waste yarn to cast on, and the red stripe marks Valentine's Day. The shiny metal "tooth" marks the hour hand. Currently it is set to noon. The clock will advance every hour, completing a full circle (and row) every 12 hours, or two rows a day.

Now I have the massive task of the technical write-up for my site.

Don't you like it when someone in Smash Bros's online quickplay is being toxic and you just, you know, run them over a little bit? 😉

I declined a rematch.

Controversial topic 

Oh great, my phone is now in the middle of a large update without my permission. And I was connected to my hotspot too.

Is the real threat of AI not that it will become superintelligent, but that we'll become dependent on it and become superdumb?

Of course, there are other arguably more important dates in Linux history, but this is one of them.
