The watchers.

The irony is I've got better service coverage on a silent.link esim than I do with Verizon I pay more for even when it isn't down for a day.

So if Fabio got hit in the face with a seagull on a roller coaster where does this lead? View quoted note →

I welcome clunkier keyboards fore they make my typos butter.

Not going to lie I was pretty sure I was too chudlike to manage switching to GrapheneOS, but I've got to say, I feel refreshed and cleansed. Also way less clunky than I thought it would be, pretty snappy. @Zapstore and Obtanium FTW. I'm late to the party but my whole journey has been a gradual concession to making things as difficult and dorky as possible in my digital realm.

Finally got around to beginning the move over to GrapheneOS. Restarting with just the stuff I want, silent.link signal and simplex. Keeping the old phone as a trash heap for the spam calls and regular garbage in garbage out.

Just rewatched Army of Darkness. Hundreds of people on screen, choreographed fights, enormous set design, stop motion, pyrotechnics, hundreds of props and puppets, special effects artist mastery, stunt men, latex, slapstick comedy, Bruce Campbell, guys on fire, skeletons, great musical score, comedy, full commitment to the bullshit, seven Bruce Campbells fighting one Bruce Campbell Charlie Chaps meets the stooges style, smooth runtime of about 80 minutes... $13 million dollars in 1992. Even in terms of inflation this shit still rules. And the amount of effort to make it a thing is monumental. And it gives no regards to your understanding for the lore of the prior two movies because it doesn't even care. There's no "message" to be had. It's pure unrivaled spectacle. You get on the ride and enjoy it or you lose out. They don't make bullshit like they used to.

Spent all day at work wondering why my node went offline and my miners switched to their fallback pools, ruling out a power outage. Finally got home and it wouldn't turn on. Turns out the cats must've been rough housing behind the TV and managed to unplug just my node. Crisis averted.

Torrenting movies is cool and all I really use now since cancelling all my streaming subscriptions, but goddamn the buffering to 33% and audio desyncing when I'm just trying to watch Brunflefly vomit drop the dude's arm and leg during the last 12 minutes of "The Fly" is frustrating AF.

Happy New Quality Lear or something

Two weeks of heating my bedroom in the drafty ass house with a Canaan Mini 3

Seeing quantum fud, miner capitulation/hashrate drop, concerns about custodians, treasury company collapse, leverage washouts, clockwork "whale" selling, fork proposals, abysmal sentiment, influencer disappointment and hearing Tone Vays try to explain what he considers an "economic" node. Me:

Me, an "adult" still building and bridging my way through creativity blockages on my autostic down time binges. Without instructions or taking up shelf space. View quoted note →

My wife: tells her mom we'll be there between 12-1. 12:40: still haven't left. Me: Merrily merrily merrily.
