@elisemtanner Hello, nice to meet you. This is the account that I'm on most of the time. πŸ––

I know it's crazy, but since realizing that M$ now owns Atom editor, I'm switching back to vim for writing my papers in LaTeX. A little rusty at it, but things are starting to come back.

Upgraded to last night and the bluetooth support is atrocious. Luckily I had an backup and am switch back to nougat

I really don't understand the collaborative summer reading program doesn't employ new graphic artists that are interested in getting some recognition and license the art work as . It seems like it would be a win/win for all involved.

No power at the ? No problem I'll do interlibrary loans on my phone. ,☺️

GAFA and the distraction of AI Show more

On the brighter side of things, got 2 4TB harddrives in the mail today. Going to spend some time this weekend testing out adding and removing drives from a zfs mirror so that I can upgrade the 1TB mirror to 4TBs next week.

Spent about 30 minutes at work today breaking something and the next 8 hours getting it fixed. Some days just go like that I guess.

So I got an EasyCap 60 to on . It worked out of the box and I love that. I'd like to use to record the video from /dev/video0 but I can't see what's happening. Is there something like tee or a pipe that I can use to allow /dev/video0 to be used by ffmpeg and by vlc at the same time?

Toddler has been up since 3am. Therefore I have been up since 3am. Time to go to work.
