** Daily Driver
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: daily
:END:
As of writing this I am mostly a laptop peep. My main laptop is a way over
powered MSI Raider GE68 HX 13V. On paper it seems like one of the worst
laptops to run linux on but in practice its smooth sailing thanks to [[https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.4-MSI-EC-Driver][a MSI
driver set in the kernel]]. Pulling chunky, RGB lit, noisy, prone to getting hot,
heavy and oversized gaming laptop never intended to run linux into the linux
realm kicking and screaming is quite a experience. Also I dig the 16:10
monitor. I could easily get by with a fraction of the power and will likely
never own another pc this powerful even with a dying version of Moore's Law
still in operation. I like my mind fuck amount of computing power and
effortless ability to crack the graphics to max in many games. Gotta own at
least one power house of a computer before I die even if its a laptop. The full
size keyboard it has is really nice and the RGB is nice to look at while
stoned. What do I use this keyboard for? Not much because I plug in a 60%
mechanical keyboard anyways. Why do I use a laptop like a desktop you say? When
I got it I had shitty size restraints. Now I have plenty of space for just
about anything though I cant predict the future and dont know how long that
will remain the case.

** Secondary
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: secondary

I also own a small for my standards HP laptop with cracking plastic and a
trackpad that been used to the point of its protective layer chipping away. It
was my daily driver throughout high school but now lives in my backpack since
its a bit less chunky then my daily driver along with the fact its annoying as
fuck to unplug the million different things plugged into it every time I go
somewhere. It gets burnin really easily which use to scare me when editing
scary/funny faces in gimp along with making my high schooler brain paranoid
when jorking it to porn, often ranging from totally straight to totally gay and
anything in-between. Since the trackpad fucking sucks to use I got one of those
logical trackballs which I also use as a remote for my tv.

** tv
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: tv
:END:
My tv is a /dumb tv/ if peeps have started calling them that yet but its also
4k making it the best of both older and newer tvs. Plugged into it I got my
thrift store sound system from the early 20s rocking a 5 disk CD changer and a
dual tape player, a HP pc off the side of the road running linux mint, and a
blueray/DVD player also off the side of the road. I use this tv to watch
wonderful things like Courage the Cowardly Dog, King of the Hill, FLCL,
Gunbuster, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Xavier: Renegade Angel, and Moral
Orel. Check out [[file:tv-corner.org][the tv corner]]. While I have some DVDs I mostly watch shit I
torrent.

** Mac
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: mac
:END:
I got a g4 mac for free so I installed openbsd on it. It uses window maker as
its WM and got a whole lain theme going on. I keep trying to get the nvidia
drivers working because apple said "why not put a nvidia in this already shit
show of a computer?" and made the graphics so shitty without it working right
that not even doom works at a playable speed. Cant even get past the start menu
): It does however browser the interwebs just fine with dillo.

** +smart phone+ shit brick
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: shit-brick
:END:
Before getting into this I am not a smart phone peep but one type of peep I am
is a free stuff peep. Another type of peep I am is abusing consumer products
peep. I got a consumer product for free. That consumer product being a google
pixel. You know what I did with my consumer product I got for free? The same
thing your uncle did to you when you were 11. I abused it! Want to see the cool
mods I did to it? Sorry to disappoint the only abusing I did was install
grapheneOS on it and /carefully/ threw it at a lot of things. I call it my shit
brick because the main things I use it for is throwing and keeping my brain
stimulated while on the toilet. Why not use lineageOS you say? Because a
shit brick isnt a toy, its a tool and as long as it works and I can keep
googles eyes at bay I can shit peacefully. One problem I have with grapheneOS
its google play store container fucking sucks. The only app I need off it is my
works clock-in app which I install with aurora. My favorite part of grapheneOS
is storage scopes because my works clock-in app demands full image gallery
permissions but I dont want them to see all my lewd selfies. If anyone I
sexted on jabber is reading this: yes, I might have been on the toilet
shitting.

* Usage
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: usage
:END:
I am very scatter brained. I have too many things open on multiple monitors
just to forgot I even exist. Most people will say "I spend most of my time in X
application" but not me. If asked that I would simply answer yes. I know, out
of character for an emacs user. Sometimes I spend a lot of time gaming, other
times I spend a lot of time programming, or reading online articles, or
watching videos, or chatting on jabber or irc, messing with random shit on
linux... Sometimes everything at once. No, I dont multi task. I am actually
quite bad at multi tasking due to the fact I am not prescribed any stimulates
or prescribed anything [[file:nathans-philosophy.org::#nonhumanism][even though I should be]]. [[file:blog/index.xhtml#things-i-say][I also dont go to therapy]]. I do
however go to the dentist quite a bit due to the fact I have a gum disease
which might have been worsened by kratom which I use to take to fill the hole a
lack of prescriptions and therapy left.

For programming I fuck around with c99 and raylib though I often never finish
things except for a small number of projects. I also write up quick and dirty
scripts in lisp and python. I prefer c99 and lisp though I will program in
anything that isnt javascript due to the fact javascript is the worst
programming language ever created. Most programming languages, even shitty ones
have their uses. Javascript on the other hand should never be used and is a
net-negative to society. I like language servers but not /auto-complete/ since
I think programming environments should be helpful and suggest information
based on the scope and dependencies though it should not do anything for you.

This website is made in emacs org-mode using [[https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-publish-html-tutorial.html][org-publish]] so I can use one
source for both the xhtml and gopher versions along with easily make changes
across the site. Parts of the site org-publish doesnt cover well and/or the way
I want it I use guile scripts. I also use guile for the guest book. People
often tell me I should use a spell checker. I do have a spell checker though I
only use it if I think things should be spelled property. For grammar I just
put ",", ":", ";"... where ever the fuck I want and use words however I see
fit. I use to think writing was hard than I had the realization language is
shape by how its used and things are made rules when a generation of old fucks
grew up doing it that way. I am not going to let a bunch of old fucks tell me
what I can and cant do on my own website. Sadly I dont culturally fit into any
generation which in extension means my spelling and grammar is deemed unfit for
society.

On the interwebs I often have javascript disabled and when I do need javascript
I use umatrix to limit what gets through. I hate web apps and will not install
any electron app on my computer for any reason. I dont like algorithms, if a
site doesnt support rss or atom I will not keep up with it. I hate online
accounts and will not sign into much. Because of this I will not post on any
social media including open source ones like mastodon. Why post on those
anyways when you can make your own site?! I also dont like matrix since its
bloated spyware from israel and it tries so hard to be a open source [[https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/discord][discord]] it
even mimics the issues.

* Is this another stallman clone?
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: stallman
:END:
The pedo known as stallman made a page kind of like mine. He stole my idea and
made a similar page on his website. Mine was the first. Because stallman is a
pedo [[https://stallman-report.org][someone made a website about it]]. The creator of stallman report [[https://dmpwn.info][turned out
to also be a pedo]]. I have a theory the creator of dmpwn.info is also a pedo to
continue the cycle. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein_client_list][This mirrors events currently going on outside the free and
open source community.]] Stuppas like [[https://www.tastyfish.cz][drummy fish]] argue that age is just a
number, which is true due to the fact the issue behind pedos is not the age gap
but the power gap but these stuppas tend to defend the power gap because
they are pedos. This is why law is not able to effectively stop pedos because
it only cares about the age gap when the power gap is the real issue. This is
also why women are under social pressure to shave. If the law was designed
correctly all republican politicians and a sizable chunk of democrats would go
byebye. The people who would go byebye are the ones who control the law.
