The infinite monkey theorem, as it relates to #FOSS.> Lock an infinite number of monkeys in a room with a git repo, and they'll fix that bug you hate.If you're lucky, it'll even get merged!

#TIL After a couple hours of editing files, logging in and out of Ubuntu...That thing people call the desktop? With the wallpapers, and icons (ahem, :elementary:)?Apparently, it's just a glorified file browser. Thunar vs. Nautilus isn't just semantics, I guess.

Context:I'm using Ubuntu Budgie. The text underneath the desktop icons renders weirdly. It gives me a headache. Still not sure what to do.

> Seriously. The idea of a "blog" needs to get over itself. Everybody is treating writing as a "content marketing strategy" and using it to "build a personal brand" which leads to the fundamental flawed idea that everything you post has to be polished to perfection and ready to be consumed.> [...]> This idea is toxic and led me to publish less and less over time.#Blog #PersonalSites https://joelhooks.com/on-writing-more

@kev The rest of your site is clean-cut. I would go with square, for consistency.

@joeligj12 I'd glad you're happy using it. For some reason, Inkscape's interface always throws me off. I had been using it, but I couldn't deal with the overload of buttons, toolbars, and menus. So much information in one place.

There's nothing like the feeling you get after deleting over 900 emails. Speaking from experience.

@kev Good thing you posted this. I got a similar email last week. I took them seriously. Althought I didn't give them a backlink, I did edit the post. Thanks for the heads-up!

@jle Oh no. Such a scandal. Gasp.By the way, our gracious overlord @kev wrote an article about windows not being so terrible. https://kevq.uk/is-windows-unstable-here-are-my-thoughts/

#PSA: I'm moving to @binyamin@mas.to. I love @kev and the fosstodon crowd. It's been a wild ride, and it was a great introduction to #mastodon. I hope to meet more great people over there. Old toots will stay where they are.

I'm looking for an introductory guide to GPG, as it pertains to the average developer. Eg. how to make a keypair, where to store it, and when to use it.#BoostsWelcome #gpg #AskMastodon #AskFedi

I've been gravitating towards #golang recently. Anyone have a new favorite language?

(This was a social experiment)In this toot, did you expect a theological hot-take? An attempt to push some particular faith on you? An offer for "spiritual cleansing"?My dudes, not gonna happen. I don't care if you're an atheist. Invent your own religion; not my business.I'll let you do your thing. Just let everyone else do theirs.
