Seeking advice on matrix clients - I would like one which (a) isn't web based (I count electron as web-based) (b) supports SSO login, (c) multiple accounts, and (d) E2E encryption.
So far the best I've found is Quaternion, but that lacks (d)

This evening's drink was Pressure Drop's "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to" which is a Maple, coconut, and chocolate Imperial granola stout. It's delish!

NodeJS, Downloading binary crap into the build, the NVIDIA AR toolkit (not available afaict), or patching dlib before building.
Argh. Halp plx.

Levenshulme @BeEV_Charging in the past 3 months: Dig up Chapel St and the A6, mark wrong parking bays, install charger, unmark wrong bays, dig up Chapel St again, mark right bays, put a rain cover over charger, remove rain cover.
You still can't actually charge your car there.

One of our rust team members is in need of urgent support.
If your company uses Rust please consider sponsoring them, even one-off sponsorship would help significantly by buying them more time to find stable employment.

I hate sharing it this publicly, but I'm at a critical point... I need to get a contract or hired by the end of next week, or I'll have to move back to TN. Fortunately I haven't started HRT or anything, but that will force putting transitioning off...

Was Ansible, but now I'm just all-in on NixOS because if I'm going to fight with OS configuration I want to do it in one place from the inside.
