Just FYI, I'm planning on migrating *this* account (@npub1l3gp...vu48) over to Polymaths (@npub1lzeg...7phn) at some point in the next few days or weeks. (/Il faut préciser!/, I know!)
I still love the Fosstodon community and all of the groovy nerdy stuff that goes on here. The local feed is probably the best I've ever seen in terms of quality *and* quantity.
But trying to maintain two identities is making me a *wee* bit cross-eyed. XD

I hate to say it, but switching back to #GBoard has been a total game-changer.
Not even #FUTO Keyboard comes close in terms of accuracy.

Dear God... trying to type into the chat field on major financial website on a *12th Gen i7* and it's like watching the text appear in slow motion.
LET'S JUST BURN THE WEB DOWN AND START A NEW ONE.
Saw a full eclipse for the first and possibly last time in my life.
NOW I understand why people spent crazy money to get here for one day, and why the ancients flipped their lid when it happened.
What are you going to blog today?

How the crap does anyone use this utter flaming garbage?
Kinda love how a lot of USB-C accessories on #LexCorp suddenly have 'iPhone' in the name.
Welcome to the land of partial sanity, iPhone users!
Now if we could only get you to be able to side-load your own blasted software. Or jailbreak your phone without risking bricking and lots of bad things. Or install an alternative operating system.
I was looking up a quote for car insurance...
Based on nothing more than my name, birthday, and address, it had the names of all of my immediate family.

I want to get back to one of my blog series ideas -- review the #1 pop song for every decade I've been alive (i.e., if I were born in 1985, I'd start in 1980).
I started to look into it, but figured I didn't really have that much to say about pop music, but I'm sure when we get to decades I remember well like the 80s and 90s, I'd have some interesting anecdotes or memories. Unfortunately, my musical knowledge starts dropping off rapidly in the 90s, when I lost interest in popular music.

The problem with enjoying 20-year-old TV shows is you get bit hella bad with the maudlin bug.
Thinking about decades past, I feel like the Tenth #Doctor raging before the end of his life/regeneration,
"I COULD HAVE DONE SO MUCH MORE!!"
Live your life, peeps. Don't be a wallflower. Be as bookish as you want, but get out that door and live.
