A readme file for Dylan Araps from 3 days ago saying “have taken up farming” and the github page for neofetch has also been archived. Good for him I guess.

    Things made out of wood don’t suddenly stop working cos you looked away for 15 seconds and Wood v2.1.4 is incompatible with Nails v4.0, but if you upgrade Nails you also have to upgrade Paint to v2.2 and they completely changed their API because the old API wasn’t sufficiently cool anymore

      Woodworking is very popular among techies for a reason. As are playing music and climbing (bouldering)

        I’m an avid hiker personally

        Especially in the local wilderness where I don’t get cell reception

        It’s nice knowing that literally no matter how important somebody thinks their problem is they can’t reach me no matter how hard they try AND no matter how much my reflex is to check my email for “important” things that need taken care of I literally can’t check it.

          I am also an IT nerd that hikes as much as I can, when the weather permits. Too many of my local trails have decent reception so I have to just forget my phone exists for a while.

        This past weekend, I picked up a little wooden craft kit. All the pieces were pre-cut and I just had to glue and fit things together. I put it together yesterday and I can confirm, it was the most satisfying thing I’ve built in ages.

      You thought

      In fact, your farm equipment is made not to be repaired by you. Your tractors and what have you are very anti repair

        It’s probably cheaper to import a Zetor or MTZ from Europe, the 70s-80s models are still very much in use.

      And then you call the vendor and they say there is nothing they can do after you sat on hold for several hours

      Or wood 2.2 has an unpatched zero day and now some dude in Russia owns your barn until you repaint every surface (wipe and reload)
