Last Notes
Luckily you statistically have as long to wait now as you did when you started. But you are closer. Probably.
lol, just saw it within Wisp itself. Nice.
Proof of Work. PoW 32. Running it in Dark Wisp for funsies. Just because I want to achieve it. It's ridiculous.
Maniacally installing Omarchy on every piece of otherwise dead-tech I have sitting around the place
In search of the elusive PoW 32: well over a day in, we're at 726000k mined. lulz.
Works like a dream. Thanks!
Looks like a pleasant evening unfolding; free beer and food, I shall see you soon. ✌

GM. Our village has its Fall Fest tonight; free beer and food courtesy of the town’s garage, which is an interesting and generous dynamic. Praying for good weather; rain in the forecast.
...and lest I forget: Happy Friday, all!

Re: Omarchy Funding
Some read incentive. I get it. "What are all those $1M+ donors getting in return?" It's a natural read. We all see greed and expect it, with good reason.
But what if it's not greed? What if it's guilt?
Most of the big donors found a way to sell their soul at one point. Most of them are old enough to know a time when we had a very different vision for computing and the Internet.
Guilt is a great motivator when it comes time to throw money around at vanity projects to justify your other questionable contributions to the world of a very centralized space.
But maybe it's not even guilt. Maybe it's evolved into something more healthy: resource allocation toward the real vision, the one most of those contributors had as kids. Maybe it has a sense of purpose now.
Maybe.
GN all. Keep that chess game strong.

Just blessing your timeline with a little Chicago alt-country.

I meant the S O X could've be pax-ified. But maybe that's too much lol
I actually appreciate the flag, since it's a symbol of Leo directly. The Pax symbol would be a bit more generic in this context.
Surely they could've done something the PAX symbol here
Anything beats this. Anything.

Of all the Pope Leo x White Sox gimmicks out there, New Era's "Vatican City" is probably the most well done. Just dropped yesterday.

Handsome fellow. May his days be spent swinging from well-stocked bird feeders.
GM. I have a new bishop. Pray for him if you’re the prayin’ type.

Sheesh glad I saw this in my morning 😱😂
We are now approaching the ninth hour; will it post, or is it bugged out of its mind? Only time will tell.
Just imagine it, though: one relay, requiring PoW 32. It would be like sending telegrams. And it would be glorious.

I installed it on an old laptop. It is crazy. I am up too late. Very interesting. A few glitches because of my low memory, but still pretty cool. But I have to go to sleep. Thanks.
GN all, gonna try for sleep. I leave you this ugly goblin.

It's disappointing. Pedestrian. Bad, even.
But it'll be mine. It'll be my perfect 32.
I am currently mining a PoW 32 just for funsies. We're 5.5 hours in and are at 361999k and counting.
After two days with Omarchy, I am saddened to announce that I've fallen out of love with macOS.
People love to pretend they have the vaguest idea.
I wish more clients had user-adjustable PoW.
Just been looking at it. Maybe I'll try it tonight, especially if it works on an older computer.
I've never tried it.
Currently using Debian and MX Linux.
Glad you're liking it!
Omarchy makes me like computing again.
Pester a priest to listen to it

I feel like I need to find a vacant corner to safely scroll my feed, without drawing the ireful scorn of the regulars.
After finding my first real use for AI -- customizing the heck out of this Omarchy install, building custom plugins -- I'll say it:
Clankers, you ain't half bad.
GN all. Have a blessed Wednesday when it gets here, and at worst, may it only be a quarter as chaotic as this old timey SciFi image.

Jack’s still here, like an omniscient, omnipresent deity. His spirit will be with us to the end of the age.
The Dell XPS 13's speakers are fine for a PC, but are practically tin cans when compared to an Apple device. Which is exactly what one should expect, but there you go.
Typically, in a bigger environment, yes: it's a visual sign that can act as an invitation. When I served in Chicagoland proper, I almost always wore clerics.
In my village, nearly everyone knows who I am, and therefore the need isn't the same.
Also: priests never wear their collars on their days off, and that's the start of mine 😀.
The folks at the local bar and grill should see the local priest cheering and eating wings with a Roman collar, no?
On Sunday afternoons, it seems like half of my village runs through a local bar and grill for wings and football. Here's me with some of the boys this weekend (far right). Good people and good times. What it's all about.

I will now forever be a part of the "stolen valor" Linux community.
