Yeah. ;) (text after hashtags to force clients to fully display them, because [hashtags are poetry], dadgummit! ;)
P.S. Bitmapped fonts are SOOOO CLEAAAAAN. Dude. XD

@js I just had a hunkering to post on /c/unix_surrealism or whatever that board's called and I couldn't so I'm here bothering you instead.
OpenBlade is edgy.
That's all I wanted to say. Thank you.

In some ways, anime policewoman Noah Izumi is a better FOSS mascot than the existing ones.
- Fairly nontechnical, yet still strives to get the most out of her exoskeleton (even does a little maintenance)
- Dismantled the C&C server of a botnet that spread through a backdoored OS update: in a film that came out decades before the age of constant automatic updates
- Defeated the Griffon (advanced prototype thingy) by using a last-gen machine that didn't have the Neural Network motion control software: in a genre that otherwise loves mid-season upgrades
- Infectuously energetic and optimistic
- Named after God's oldest backup engineer

@ricci all temporary hacks are permanent. They live eternally.
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die. -
Once upon a time, I used to work as Web Developer in an environment where each developer had their own development instance of Apache, all running on a shared Linux box.
Overheard this conversation in the cube jungle, over cubicle walls:
SysAdmin: "Looks like a web server is causing the development box to hang. Hey, which Apache instance is yours?"
Developer: "...the one that says 'bad motherfucker' on it."

CW: The Extremely Short Stories By triapul.cz Are Mocking Me And I Love It.
(First on https://kaka.farm/posts/2025/11/07/the-extremely-short-stories-by-triapul-cz-are-mocking-me-and-i-love-it.html (mirror: https://kakafarm.codeberg.page/posts/2025/11/07/the-extremely-short-stories-by-triapul-cz-are-mocking-me-and-i-love-it.html))
The two following extremely short satirical stories "We, the window managers" and "blue hair", written by the surrealist artist of analognowhere fame, are mocking people like me and I love it.
"We, the window managers" is a day in the life of a religiously motivated digital minimalism advocate, specifically minimalist window managers.
"blue hair" is the experience of patronising a cafe as a free software developer, specifically one of the ideologically deplorable 9front project.

Every time I read #UnixSurrealism it makes me want to switch to #Plan9.
This is absolutely not a reasonable option for me, but it doesn't stop me from wanting to do it.

RIP. We had science fiction to prop us up, and reality to knock us down.

I have a question about #UnixSurrealism
Does my glitch art of Linux distro logos count?
It's okay if not, but.....I'm thinking it might!

(I'll put the script up when I'm at the machine where I left my laundromat keys. this was surprisingly easy to make, let's talk ideas on how to make it less shitty.)
In the meantime:
(I tagged the washers I know of on mastodon, 'xcusme me, if I forgot anyone. And @ihnn, who supplied the music. I don't remember the name of the song; I downloaded it a year ago and my file naming standards are not standardised at all.)

A while ago, after a discussion on Operating Systems of our choice, a friend and a colleague I've worked with on several projects, presented me with the following illustration after showing her the mascot of OpenBSD:
