@alcinnz Hello, it's been a while since I signed on to fosstodon and I just wanted to reach out to you. How are things?

@hyperrealgopher Struggling to get back into development after LibrePlanet (give a solid talk there!), but am getting through The Magnus Archives, studying GNU/Linux, & studying the dependencies I'm pulling to render webpages visually.Did get started on improving a hardware accelerated text rendering library, but I don't feel confident I know what I'm doing to avoid excluding non-europeans.

@alcinnz Oh you gave a talk at LIbrePlanet! That's so neat! This talk: https://media.libreplanet.org/u/libreplanet/m/you-wouldn-t-hate-artificial-scarcity/What's something really fun or a new passion within GNU/Linux you have? For me it's learning that I really like Debian unstable. Oh, also I got a #framework laptop!Wow, that text rendering library sounds cool!Thanks for taking the time to update me, Adrian.

@hyperrealgopher You're welcome!I'm still on elementary OS & loving it! (really should upgrade though...) I am really getting into studying the commandline tools, which I'm doing right now!You got a framework laptop? Cool! I've subscribed to the mailing list to hear when I can get one! How is it?

@alcinnz One of the best purchases I've ever made. Extremely happy with my purchase. No regrets. The only downside is a battery life that can be tuned. I got the DIY edition and built everything and got an SSD that was all centered around battery life to compensate for the bad battery life.What are your favorite command line tools? One of my favorites is #zpaq.

@hyperrealgopher Cool! Can't want to see for myself!Honestly, I'm happy sticking with the GNU suite... That's what I'm studying! Though I do use Meson/Ninja over Make.Wouldn't recommend using eSpeak NG on the commandline, it's got a poor scanner which means it works more reliably as an embedded library.
