i understand the necessity of sinuses, however, i’m not so sure about wanting them at this moment of time.

as i write this i’m neck deep in raspberry pi configurations and, much like the sinuses, i’m not so sure about why i’m wanting to do this. hobby? i guess?

regardless, i sojourned out to microcenter today and finally encountered what i believe to be the gamer bro. mind you, i’m a hermit. i avoid these things like the plague and am happy in my little shanty with emacs and programming and easels and paint.

as i’ve sought to simplify life through computing and removal of unnecessary attachments to superfluous fads i’ve noticed an increasing number of articles hitting the auto-recommended stories on my phone related to memory, digital noise, etc.

last night the villagers finally came for my frankenbuntu linux install and now i’m running a fresh clean fedora. yay.

• always update late at night
• the updates will always work on first try
• nothing can go wrong and nothing will go wrong. ever.
• keep coffee handy - perfection breeds exhaustion

• an unupdated computers is an unbroken computers
• ignore the problems and they will go away
• backing up only brings unintended consequences

more rain and i wonder about amazon and the divide between how developers are viewed vs how the warehouse workers are viewed.

regardless, bezos is the new god who grants mediocre blessings to his prime followers.

and through my own stupidity i find myself with nothing but rented culture. unowned bits flying down the wires and through the air that are illegal to capture for longer than a moment.

the old strip club law of you can’t touch the girls applies now to the stream of media.
