That's so funny, I've never seen anyone get into it by this quote alone, he's the antagonist of the game The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. The quote is even better when you hear it in context, but don't spoil the experience, you ought to play the game and hear it for yourself. What do you normally play?

Finished, well you never really finish, setting up fedora + i3 on my ThinkPad X280. Such a lovely form-factor, & the full-screen/tiling approach for the 12.3" display works like a dream.

I've been enjoying toast to help click through a project. I still mostly use Zed to handwrite code, but it's nice to open a pane and fire up toast from the terminal. paradise-runner.github.io/toast/

Do you code in silence or do you listen to music? If so, what kind of music do you prefer? Personally, I prefer Synthwave, vaporwave or the occasional country.

Awesome! Let me know what you think!

replied to:

Man this was so up my alley. Thank you for these recommendations, several of these tunes have gone straight in on my "WUBRG Goodstuff" playlist

replied to:

good videogame music is often my coding sweet spot--no lyrics, something familiar

replied to:

I can recommend rainwave.cc if you want an online radio for video game music. I tend to hang around there quite often and listen to their chiptune station.

replied to:

listening to a lot of Tunic soundtrack atm

replied to:

I wonder, is life best lived like a job? I.e set goals for yourself and then work to achieve them? Today I realised how passively I have been living mine so far, but maybe that's ok? I don't want a second job.

"Everything worth doing is worth doing badly." Meditate even if you have the time, even if you can only do two minutes. Train even if you're tired and you're not gonna do it well. Start that project even if you're not ready. Don't wait for perfection.

This is really cool site but only drawback I see is 500 character per post limit. I think this should me more like 1500. or there is a limitations type something like I can do 3-4 long post per day credit. whom can i message for this feature request?

I am certain will get back to you on such matters - creator of this platform.

On some Mastodon instances, they post whole blog posts or massive threads and I feel this type of platform is not the place for such content. But this is clearly personal taste.

késztetést érzek, hogy valami ilyesmivel (is) foglalkozzam, a kódoláshoz egyelőre nincs agyam, de majd azt is szeretnék, csak scripteket, semmi komoly programnyelv, de végülis a JavaScript is scriptnyelv

I feel the urge to do something like this, I don't have the brains for coding yet, but I would like to, just scripts, no serious programming languages, but after all, JavaScript is also a scripting language
