There's something therapeutic about writing docstrings for a big library while listening to chill music.

Found this gem of a project pretty randomly. The readme alone is quite interesting, here's a funny excerpt:

"NSA classifies Linux Journal readers, Tor and Tails users as "extremists"."

It's incredible, unbelievable and utterly disgusting that it's 2022 and microsoft can't do one thing right for the love of everything that's good and sacred. This job is nothing but frustration and the only one reason is that we have to use everything that microsoft has ever made under the sun.

@marco_ime thank you for the recipe

Oh and another fun thing: yesterday I spent the afternoon disassembling my #MechanicalKeyboard to 1) clean it up and 2) foam mod it.

The foam makes a very subtle difference in sound (I think it's because the keycaps are PBT, which makes a higher pitched sound compared to ABS), but the difference in feel is really interesting.

I think what's happening is that I'm not feeling the extra air vibration that a hollow case usually produces, resulting in a "full" feel.

I've just finished walking one my brother through installing and setting up #LineageOS with no gapps, giving him an account on my nextcloud server to easily migrate off of all the google services.

Aside from the fact that I'm mentally exhausted, I'm happy to say that he loves the new experience. Hopefully he sticks to it!

I'm messing around with #pipewire, #wireplumber and #qpwgraph. Gotta say, the possibilities here are endless.

I renamed my devices to sensible names, and I created a virtual sink so that when I to stream games to my friends, I can have a much better time routing audio correctly.

(Routing directly from the game is tricky as most games stop playing audio when they go out of focus, disappearing from the graph)
