  1. Tripping network security alerts and segfaulting programs on Windows. And still unable to get convenient access to the assets that I’m supposed to manage. I love security.

  2. JIRA is sapping because alongside that necessary work is the requirement to force all forms of work into a specific shape for metrics and to break it into arbitrarily defined stages that you need to track even if the change is one line and all the parties were in a meeting for all of it.

  3. And I don’t mean to perpetuate the distinction between and disproportionate and wrong-headed valuation between the “hard-skill” and “soft-skill” work. I know well enough that coordination and communication are vital, difficult, and requiring of natural and developed aptitudes.

  4. God knows JIRA is at least as mentally- and emotionally-taxing as “proper” work.

  5. This seems obvious in hindsight (unless someone knows better), but you can’t forward smart card certs through an ssh jump box. Boo.

    I do essentially all of my work on a Linux machine l through a Windows laptop that I use as a glorified thin-client and web browser (I should probably consider all of the things I do in Teams/Outlook as work, but they’re also just web apps at this point that I could shove into a browser context if I cared enough.

  6. My wife says it’s “disgusting” that I didn’t clean out my car for just under a year and bought me a “membership” to the car wash? She wants me to wash it _every week_?!

  7. Why is StubSack some sort of one-page application nonsense? It’s a fucking blog! You don’t even have the courtesy to update the URL in the address bar when I navigate to a post?! Why do people use this shit?!
    All questions in this post are of the frustrated/rhetorical category and do not require answers.

  8. Emily Atkin @emorwee (inactive here) did a piece on Democrats running away from messaging on the climate—and showed that the data Third Way uses about swing voters* actually show that it’s a good issue to talk about—even with that demographic!

    * gawd, I’d love to bash the idea of swing voters being unable or unmotivated to see the difference between the closest aligned party to the dignity of human life and a livable planet and mask-off fascists trying to—and doing in the open—murder swathes of the public, but shit like this means that the “closest aligned” part of that definition is stretching pretty fucking far.
    (Yes, her climate newsletter/blog is hosted on StubSack)

  9. I fear that I have missed “clever” and hit “asshole”, again. You’d think that after all these years making similar mistakes, that I’d have the territory adequately mapped, but you, you would be wrong.

  10. This toot brought to you by the Dyson Cinetic Big Ball vacuum that doesn’t have a user-serviceable filter but does have a suction-breaker device that keeps tripping and I can’t figure out how to make it stop.

  11. Ugh, nothing is worse than a machine that claims to be “maintenance-free”. That just means that you’ve moved all the service into a place where I can’t reach it!

  12. Height and angle seem good/nominal. Key travel might be slightly more, but in a way that immediately offends.

  13. Size is good. Key size and spacing appear normal. The key surfaces aren’t concave to their edges; they have a circular divot instead—I’m not sure I like that. We’ll see how I adjust to using it for the desktop while continuing to use the cheapo wired Insignia keyboard for work at the same desk.

  14. Meat proxies: robots in disguise!

  15. Wait, is that a felony? I wouldn’t be exploiting anyone to run the campaign though.
    Stupid legal system, set up to protect capital.

  16. They make little jars to put water in for when you’re watercolor painting or whatever and want to be able to rinse your brushes, too.

  17. We should make a DoS game.

  18. Wait, I also did some part-time TA work and stuff at the uni computer center helping students with engineering physics and early CS coursework.

  19. Oh no, everything I’ve ever done or tried to do outside of service work has been against the betterment of society writ large. Military service working in nuclear power, studying to be a chemical—possibly petroleum or polymer—engineer, working for defense contractors and useless software startups…
    Truly, making sandwiches, working the coffee stand/convenience shop, and selling books were the most pro-social employments I’ve had.

  20. *putting groceries away* The single-serving glass jars of Yoplait Oui are so wasteful. Wait. Glass is actually truly recyclable. The responsible choice nevertheless feels luxurious and almost decadent. God, the plastics people really fucked us up as a society.

  21. Yes, the cat celebrates year-round, but today marks the day of the year he has a point.

  22. Happy Where-the-fuck-is-Breakfast (US) to all cat staff.

  23. Walking the dog before trick or treating time, we saw one of the neighbor’s dogs shaking the ever-loving shit out of a spider-thing. It wasn’t immediately clear if it was a new toy for her or a pilfered decoration, but the shouting as we rounded the corner clarified things.
