Bod’s doing some cute. https://instagr.am/p/COwGYraJISx/

Wikipedia just asked me to add them to my will. "We appreciate the donations you've made while you are alive, but…"

Completely aside from my feelings on Google products in general, the attention to keyboard shortcuts in their web apps always impresses me. Excites me, even, in a primal, nerdy way.

And now I’d like to introduce tonight’s opening act, Primal Nerd.

I want to refer to my Mac mini using gendered pronouns but I don’t know how it identifies.

`sudo id —gender`?

Don’t make me alias `arch -x86_64 bundle exec`. Because I’ll do it, and then you’ll be sorry, M1.

Opened a full screen VNC window to a client that was running a full screen VNC of the computer I started on. ★☆☆☆☆ I can’t use the mouse with this thing.

My lap tonight. I’m glad the dog doesn’t want on right now. https://instagr.am/p/COeJVxdp8NA/

I just want a Thunderbolt 3 switch/kvm. I basically want to switch a Thunderbolt 3 hub between 2 (maybe 3) Macs. Anyone seen such a thing? TB2 with adapters is feasible but not ideal.

Yeti congratulating me on making it through my first day at my new job. https://instagr.am/p/CObmdJnJ99K/

I am furniture. https://instagr.am/p/COV_q9vJ7EJ/

Apparently DefaultKeyBinding.dict has to be 0600 permissions to work on an M1 (or maybe everywhere…). My symlinks were failing and I thought “oh god you can’t use keybindings on Silicon” but no, you totally can. This story brought to you by SquareSpace.

That hair phase where I didn't need bleaching to be blonde. https://instagr.am/p/COQYW3ap0u6/

This is the stuff that makes me wonder why I haven't gotten into Raspberries yet.

The (more recent) hair phase where I grew it upside down. I have since gone back to the "fuzzy bowling ball" look. https://instagr.am/p/COIMpx0J_9w/
