Okay, because of the decentralized nature of the social media platforms I'm choosing to use these days, I've encountered a greater diversity of opinions, and that's a good thing.

That said, I need to make one thing perfectly clear once and for all: you do not have a "right" to discriminate against others. This does *not* constitute persecution.

Yes, you *do* have a right to express your opinions, but this does not grant you immunity from criticism.

Got a text saying that an appointment was available for me to get my COVID vaccine... during my shift for work.

Welp, guess I've got to wait for the next one. 😐

I really ought to learn to use #awk. I keep running into tasks that seem like it's the exact tool I'd need. I'm just lazy.

Looks like I was just impatient. Hackage just hadn't generated the documentation yet. It's all good now.

Thanks to anyone who looked into it for me.

For the record: It had previously been complaining about the types of some functions from imported packages not matching. I'd assumed there'd been a breaking change in the libraries and I added version constraints to combat this.

No luck.

Can anyone explain to me why the #haddock documentation for this package won't build? #haskell
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/passman-0.3.0.2

This kinda makes me want to 3D print the Utah teapot.

I wonder if sometimes I overcomplicate things. I was not at home because we had to take the dog to the vet. Waiting in the parking lot, I was on my phone, connected via an SSH tunnel I'd left open through my server to the living room computer. From there, I was connected via another SSH connection to the one in the office, performing a backup to my rsync account.

It gets the job done, but my god it's convoluted.

This is why I quit working for #instacart

Whatever just went down across the street, it involved an ambulance, fire truck, two paramedics and no fewer than twelve police cruisers.

To anyone currently affected by the #VMedia #outage:

It's a DNS problem. If you know how, you can manually set your primary and secondary DNS servers to 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 respectively.

I could also use 8.8.8.8, but Google already has anough info about me already. I'm not about to give them more of I can help it.

I've been trying to read a whole list is books I've been meaning to read for a long time. I'm currently on Book V of "The Iliad". Diomed kind of reminds me of the Black Knight from Monty Python.

You just can't kill that guy.

Finally released my #NetHack video. Closed captioning isn't ready yet I'm afraid, but I will be adding that for my hearing impaired friends as soon as I've finished.

EPILEPSY WARNING:
There is some unintentional flashing around the 30 minute mark.

This will probably do nothing to dispell the myth that video games make people violent.
