It's been a long time since I did an #introductions
I'm Irick. I'm a #computer #science mitten who enjoys #philosophy and #magic. My primary hobbies are #reading and #rpgs.
I am a #relationshipAnarchist and I probably <3 on you. I'm ridiculously #furry My 'sona is a #mitten which is a portmanteau of mouse and kitten. I also love puns :D

I think ultimately small projects like the fediverse and IRC are going to be what I look back to as the historical influences for the early social web. I really never spent much time on the bigger networks. I think even today my largest simi-proprietary social platform is probably telegram.

I love being a dork online.
It's possibly one of the best places to be a dork :D

Hey look, a federated timeline!
HELLO NEIGHBORS.
HOW ARE YOU TODAY?

replaced my laptop's bulged battery.
I seem to have the worst luck with batteries.

tooting from toot :D
curses based interface, wondering if I can do that geeky do of switching to massive tmux pannels. probably not, but still!

And all I ever want
Is just a little love
I said in purrs under the palms
And all I ever want is breaking me apart
I said to the thing that I once was

Did you know: The fediverse is not a big truck? It's a series of yous!

Furry culture is having a strangely eclectic set of animals you can identify by markings alone.
... Furry culture is also having a strangely eclectic set of reptiles you can identify by markings alone.
... Furry culture is also increasingly becoming having a strangely eclectic set of fish you can identify by markings alone.

What I'm saying is that furies are basically field biology undergrads.

Really wishing Aleph One supported 60 fps gameplay. D:

I have discovered a critical flaw in my laptop's design: the clickpad gets its spring action from the battery being held in place. This means that now that I've taken out the bulged battery, I can no longer mouseclick :P

Humor is a good indicator of linguistic group membership.
The optimist in me reminds me sometimes that a linguistic community of one is still a community :D

There are only two genders:
The set of all genders and the set of all genders that do not contain themselves.

Hello.
I'm tired and terrified.
Hydroplaned on the way home from work. :< Low speed collision. No injuries. Have to deal with that, already pretty low energy. I'm expecting a high stress CEO confrontation tomorrow because I can't bring myself to lie about the status of projects irrespective of how useless they are and how little she'll actually care about them if they are swept under the rug.
Gods I need out of this. Hundred miles a day commute. Fucking always flooded. Alienated from all my social circles. Everyone moving. I just want to stop existing for a bit.

did you know: I'm a furry nerd.

Eventually it will grow sentience.

X server in a browser.
Networked computing here I come.

Open Source Software is a pure public good. I think it's amazing we don't see more of a push for government support of it. But I suppose that is consistent with a philosophy that proposes toll roads instead of public transportation investment.

on the plus side it totally works now :D
