A readme file for Dylan Araps from 3 days ago saying “have taken up farming” and the github page for neofetch has also been archived. Good for him I guess.

    At some point every professional computer person - programmer, sysadmin, whatever - will seriously consider piling all their computers into a big pile, lighting them on fire, and moving to the country to start a new life making things with their hands

        Things made out of wood don’t suddenly stop working cos you looked away for 15 seconds and Wood v2.1.4 is incompatible with Nails v4.0, but if you upgrade Nails you also have to upgrade Paint to v2.2 and they completely changed their API because the old API wasn’t sufficiently cool anymore

          Woodworking is very popular among techies for a reason. As are playing music and climbing (bouldering)

          You thought

          In fact, your farm equipment is made not to be repaired by you. Your tractors and what have you are very anti repair

      I’ve basically done that minus the lighting stuff on fire part. Moved out to the country, still making a living with the whole computer stuff but I own some forest, I’m a volunteer firefighter and I’ve got a huge, wild garden.

      It’s good for my mental health.
