A product recall has been issued for existing Quaver UNBEATABLE Youtooz plushies.

I need this in portage
even more, it robs you of any enjoyment from doing anything that's not perfect
perfectionism is so often seen as a permissive ability to create or drive something towards perfection, but in reality, it's a crippling inability to let go of anything imperfect
it's an obsession, it stagnates you, and gets you stuck on things you shouldn't be
EEYIKES!!

The world can do with less "Apple of <some tech segment>". Too many of those lately, all evil to some extent.

It's not just hum. Even during read they do that kind of scratching sound. I've been told that's a bad sign but the smart reports of HDDs never show anything bad, for tens of thousands of hours, despite making that noise all the way (when reading or writing)
so I *do* need a server room to not have HDD noise in the same room that I sleep in, noted
so I said "I probably won't do any april fools jokes, it requires a lot of time to set up" before april 1st, and then did an april fools joke. Does that violate the geneva convention or smth?
you know that moment when a song makes you go "what the fuck is that instrument????"
happy february 60th everyone

Reposting my own art because I want it to be on bsky too.
Drawn with a pencil on paper, scanned (like a document) and then colored in GIMP. Fanart of Terra, the @aceocarinas.bsky.social character.
Also yes, no feet because I suck at drawing them even more than I suck in general.
HOLY SHIT SHE ADDED IT AS A TWITCH EMOTE
@aceocarinas.bsky.social Terra, but her flowers have turned into oranges.
(made in GIMP, reposted because of a layering error)
Image shows a robot girl (android) that was scrapped, wrapped in tarps, asking the viewer if they think she is cute, despite being an old abandoned model
Do you think she can be fixed?
std::mem::forget should really be unsafe
even spawn_local requires 'static
There is async-scoped but there's issues advising against using that
I got so used to std::thread::scope for creating threads that borrow from some shared structure WITHOUT use of Arc, and I though async would have something like that too... I swear I heard about something like that.
But I've checked tokio, async_std and smol, and all of the require 'static
Shitty typing is shitty typing regardless of the excuse
