I'm close to moving back to Windows. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to hold oneself back, deny oneself better and easier accessibility in the name of open source, when many open source developers don't give a crap about accessibility, and/or don't educate themselves on it. KDE connect, GSConnect, all were inaccessible for one reason or another, not the least because of Gnome-shell's terrible accessibility issues. That was just the last straw. With the only thing holding me to Linux being Emacs+Emacspeak, I think its time to quit Linux and just use what actually works. It's interesting how being "free" just means being under the power and whim of other people, a mass of developers who have no insentive for accessibility, rather than a cohesive company who does. This is serious, and I want every developer to understand this, understand my deep frustration with FOSS.

How many times have you moved during your life?
I love that it's an Extremely Normal Thing now to put on a mask immediately before entering a convenience store

(Talking about getting milk from the shop XD)
J: But that's okay, I got some from our friends at the shop yesterday. But they're not our friends, not really.
Me: What are they?
J: Our enemies. Rivals, at best.
Me: Why?
J: They have something we need, and we have something they need. Every so often, we do an exchange of goods, where we tolerate each other's presence for a few minutes. This is not a good foundation for a friendship.

Hey Europeans, there's a European citizens initiative going round right now for universal/unconditional basic income.
The deadline has just been extended to the start of May.
Be cool if you signed it!

My novel, NON-PLAYER CHARACTER, is live on Kickstarter!
It's a queer portal fantasy about TTRPG nerds in their 30s who are transported to the world of their game.
And it has a bunch of wonderful characters I want to share with you!

L: …why?
programmers: Part of the reason C is so error-prone is that there's barely anything in the standard library so everybody implements everything themselves!
also programmers: *ignore existing C standard library functions when programming in C and reimplement everything themselves*
