  • it’s not though. I just tried it and you can’t highlight text and then scroll through fonts. you still need to know specifically what font you want or know all the fonts installed on your system. Unlike photoshop where you can highlight text and then scroll through the fonts you have installed which will change the highlighted text to whatever font on the fly. Gimp still to this day doesn’t do that.





  • Raccoons will get into anything and everything if they’re determined, and those little chubby dudes ARE determined.

    I live in Toronto, Canada and the city at one point rolled out compost bins with locks on them for the sole purpose of keeping the Trash Pandas out. It didn’t work. They figured out how to unlock them and get into the food inside. The mom raccoons would teach their babies how to unlock them. They also like to make friends with household cats in hopes of getting some of the cats food. a couple of neighbourhood raccoons made friends with my two cats for this purpose. they would sit at the patio door and chirp back and forth with each other obviously plotting how they could all collectively feast on my food.

    they’re lucky they’re cute, they use it to their advantage.


  • I use Vaultwarden hosted on my private server. It’s great, will never use another PW manager. and yes it’s cached locally so you’re good. on PC, at least via the bitwarden CLI, you do a one time login and that’s it. you’re logged in until you tell it to logout, logs you in automatically on restarts and what have you. plus it’s very easy to access on whatever pc or phone you want to use. for pc you can just add the bw extension and have your passwords where ever or just simply login to your vaultwarden page remotely. this has been a life saver for me a couple times when I needed a pw for something but I wasn’t on my machine and borrowing someone elses.

    I use NixOS myself and I love it, i’ll never use another distro again. plus with distrobox I don’t even need to use another distro, I already have all the major ones on my NixOS System.

    If you do decide to go the Nix route keep in mind there’s really no right nor wrong way to have your system set up. it’s all personal preference. Some people will say flakes are the way to go, some people will say the opposite. Some people like having their system in modules, some don’t. Some like using the home-manager, some don’t. It’s all up to you. All I will suggest though is if you do try Nix set up a Git repo somewhere like on codeberg for it. Just makes things easier.











  • I daily driver QuteBrowser and have for awhile now. I like it. does everything I need it to do and the vim style navigation is awesome.

    Sure there are some quirks that can be solved via userscripts and trust me I have a lot written for it but everything that requires an extension in firefox or chrome i have working on Qutebrowser. I don’t get adds with youtube in fact dare I saw I have it set up better than what you could get on Firefox or Chrome, I have my password management via bitwarden, it all just works. And the dev, The Compiler, is great and is always on top of issues that come up.

    there’s yet to be any site i’ve come across that just doesn’t work.



  • this is so god damn stupid. If they’re fucking at the literal last step to get citizenship then it’s MORE than safe to assume they already have PR status and a Greencard/Visa. They’ve already passed all the checks, they’ve completed all the steps, they’re paying taxes and working and the US SS is saying "nah fam, you came from the wrong place some 10+ years ago.

    Basically it doesn’t matter if you follow the rules anymore. Just dont’ immigrate to the US full stop because there’s no point. And even if you are a citizen you’re no longer protected.

    Essentially if you’re not a white, straight (or closeted), christian, male then you’re fucked. Great country you got there.
