I want to bitch about so somewhat personal and somewhat political stuff, but no one will care for someone yelling at the clouds or be able to influence the situation in any meaningful way.

Everything is so "I don't want to do it" lately 😫

I've created an xmpp based chat for ranters

xmpp:devrantchat@muc.xmpp.earth?join

why? because i can. maybe more people would start using xmpp this way, i dunno.

pew-pew mazafakaz!

Is it me or devrant is slow as fuck?

Burned out of life and forced to exist in a cell? I guess 🤷‍♂️

fuck everything in general

and fuck me in particular

What adds meaning to your life?

Why had I woken up today at all?

ChatGPT and similar thing. Sooner or later people will get enough of the novelty and such systems will remain only as some niche tools, unless something extraordinary happens.

Trying to perform a "reboot" by not sleeping one night, to force myself to sleep the next night instead of doing the opposite and being drowsy at day every fucking day of the week

Is there a strong benefit in getting one 2x16 gb ram kit instead of two 2x8 gb ones?

For god fucking sake, PulseAudio, write a usable fucking documentation for your library and remove idiotic silent exit(1) calls and properly log what the fucking issue was

I'm tired of debugging this piece of bull shit for over a month now already while the pulse library occasionally crashes for no apparent reason

hey, bro, we have a discord server for unsocial dev monkeys

just feeling generally shitty

Do you have an ambition?

If yes, why do you have it?

Someone was nostalgic about an old game Balance

it seems like someone made a new game which very much resembles that old one: Switchball https://gog.com/en/game/...

Staying alive

(But what for?)

Your thoughts about Brave browser?
Have heard praises about it, but not sure I buy all of that.

are you a software craftsman or a software engineer? 🤔

A personal AI assistant. Something like Jarvis from Iron Man.

Learned pretty quickly that it is very close to impossible without the resources of the largest corporation in the world. So I've given up.

Unexpected appraisal.
Unexpected pay raise.
Unexpected "senior keyboard monke" badge update.

🤔

Unexpected stuff is unexpected.

Are mentions finally fixed? 🤔

Procrastination

Imagine your manager saying to you: "I've reviewed your salary and I think we are paying you too little, so I would like us to negotiate your raise." - and then proposing a larger sum than you were expecting.

After (allegedly) coronavirus infection I'm still constantly tired and unmotivated to even eat a week after all symptoms disappeared.

Yay me 😒

Sick again. Yay 🙃

Yes, fuck me in particular

The first would be playing some Pac-Man on a bootleg ZX Spectrum that my uncle made (allegedly, he made more than one and sold them).

Outside of games, had a Win95 PC at some point. I don't remember much as that was something around 20 years ago.
