Shake it three times You’re playing with yourself again

This is propaganda from people you want you to have piss stains, shake it shake it shake it!

Oh, I didn’t realize how unclear that was. The disk is a 2TB NVME SSD. I searched and searched, even booted into Mint on another disk and tried to search from there, and could only find a few hundred GB worth of files (probably about 600GB if I had to guess, lol). I genuinely have no idea what could have been taking up nearly 1.4TB of space, so that’s all I meant when I said “only.”

My suspicion is that something was going wrong whenever I deleted anything. Maybe for some reason the data just weren’t going anywhere, even though the trash was empty and they were no longer showing up in their old locations. Hence the term “clogged.” No similar issues with Cachy just yet, though.

More like they saw the potential to ruin most plebs’ already limited abilities to figure out wtf is happening in the world, thought they would be too smart to fall for that shit, and decided they should open Pandora’s box and sell it like it’s Prometheus’s fire

This happened to me earlier and it fixed itself when I closed and reopened the app

I know, I just like to see the “up to date” symbol in the toolbar, especially on a fresh install. Like I said, I get that it’s rolling release; the problem isn’t the frequency of updates, it’s that this most recent update keeps failing when I try to install it.

I just switched from Bazzite to Cachy today. For some reason my disk space got… clogged, with Bazzite? Filelight was no help so I backed everything up, wiped the disk, installed Cachy, replaced my files, and the disk went from being nearly full to only using 600GB. Still not sure what happened there.

Cachy, meanwhile, has asked me to update 4 times in the 4 hours I’ve been using it. Which is fine, I get that Arch is rolling release, but now on the 4th update it keep failing for some reason. Also I can’t have my headphones and speakers plugged in at the same time or my speakers don’t work.

Sigh. All this KDE stuff is nice and flashy, and my games have worked with both Bazzite and Cachy, so I appreciate that, but damn is it tough for me to make a Linux recommendation to anyone else that isn’t just “use Mint, it’s stable.” Anything more in depth turns into a mini essay (see above!)

I still say “subs” since you still subscribe to them. It’s just an easy, already-in-place word

Even if they do decide to go dark and gritty and kill off a few main characters, they went so deep down the multiverse rabbit hole that it doesn’t seem possible for anything they write to have consequences ever again

In a similar boat, I’ve thought about that but if I ever upgraded to a stronger real centralized PC I’d have to do a bunch of Docker setup and if anything breaks my whole system would go down. As it is, with piecemeal shitass laptops each running individual services I get lots of redundancy!

I’m glad he does post, and it’s better than nothing, but I don’t see him interact on mastodon much. I think his posts are just mirrored from bluesky

you mean other than jorkin it?
Food. Good god. I’ve been right on the line between obese and overweight for most of my life, but there was a brief period like 5ish years ago where I finally dropped like 30 pounds and got myself looking the way I wanted.

Then I started living on my own, and while that’s been really good for me in a lot of ways… oh boy, I went hog wild. I’ve always enjoyed cooking and baking, but not having to worry about hijacking the kitchen (or anyone stealing the fruits of my labor!) meant I was making all kinds of cookies, brownies, babka, breads, bagels, I’ve made croissants from scratch a couple times… eventually I memorized my brownie recipe and I got into the habit of, several times a week, making a “single serve” brownie by just throwing everything into one little oven safe bowl (sorta like these) and then eating the whole damn thing.

Last week I made enough dough for 3 pizzas, so I did one basically normal, and then inspiration struck. For the second one I made a southern-style gravy and used that instead of tomato sauce, and then the last one turned into a dessert pizza. Made a chocolate sauce out of cacao powder, melted butter, sugar, and honey, and then topped it with shredded coconut. Holy fuck, so easy, so tasty, both fresh out the oven and cold out the fridge. Highly recommend. But anyway I ate all 3 pizzas in 2 days.

Surprisingly enough my weight’s actually been trending downward this month. Maybe if I’m lucky it won’t have to be such a guilty pleasure for too much longer lol

edit, I keep forgetting to take pics of the stuff I make or else I’d post about it, but at least I did take this one of the dessert pizza
