This was my first tweet on Twitter, created on July 15, 2020. It has been moved here to keep it safe.

switched from libreoffice to wps because reasons

i'm a bit more used to wps layout (i have it on my phone) but now it won't stop messing up the text formatting when i copy paste text from somewhere else eg ao3 😢 i can only either paste them exactly as how they appear on the webpage or with formatting removed. tried the 'match current format' option and i still lost the formatting

why do microsoft gotta have to be such a bitch

I used to have tab counts running into the thousands, but browser development outpacing my laptops had meant I can no longer have more than about 200ish before it starts to run out of memory.

As for why they're there: yeah, usually it's because I find something I want to save for later but don't want to read right now (and in those cases I really should be better at backing them up to bookmarks - every so often I lose my tabs in a browser crash and it turns out that my last saved tabs listing was weeks or months old).

And sometimes it's because I'm researching something and have a few dozen relevant pages on distinct but closely related subtopics that I consult sporadically depending on where my research takes me (and I don't always remember to close the ones that are no longer relevant).

I don’t like it when I have more than three tabs open how are some of you keeping over a thousand of them open

ramble about FreeBSD and Unix~~

how out of my depth would I be trying to install FreeBSD?

would it even boot on my machine?

am I smart enough to go through the install for the system itself as well as get the GUI that I want?

I think you have to go through the command line for quite a bit of time before you get a GUI up and running....

I started off being really interested in BSD/Unix in high school, and tried to fiddle around with a BSD live disc thing in a book (that I don't remember the name of) and then only fiddled around with Linux.

I've been watching videos on youtube of people expressing how stable FreeBSD's modern release is~~

I want to use it on my own hardware; but that's a problem with it I believe, is that it works on sort of limited amount of hardware, as opposed to Linux, that you could even run on a toaster...

Is it really that much harder to deal with than Linux?

Of course I've only dealt with a few distros~~ the rundown of distros I've messed around with are;

Ubuntu (not anymore tho)

Debian (current os being Linux Mint Debian 6)

OpenSUSE briefly (tried to get my sibling to use it on their laptop, with them knowing next to nothing about Linux, sorry...)

Fedora back in high school, I ran it on a laptop for a while. I miss GNOME....

Mageia (I dual booted it on a computer running windows 7, also in or right after high school, so a long time ago)

attempted GhostBSD but it wouldn't boot after install from the live CD (also many years ago at this point)

I like to hop around and (hopefully now I have, yeah right...) I can't make up my mind which I actually want to use permanently.

Linux Mint Debian edition is really good so far tho~~!!

Current PC is an ASUS ROG Stryx (spelling?) that I bought on impulse many years ago~~ Was running windows 10, fixed the issue and now use the OS stated above~~

or maybe I should maybe ditch Mint and run straight Debian... Thought of that too. and it might have an easier time installing and actually booting than FreeBSD on this machine...

but then BSD and by extension unix is meant to be used on older hardware and to be efficient both in execution of things, and space.

"do one thing and do it well" iirc was a bit of the unix philosophy...

yeah, no I HATE technology /heavy sarcasm/

[jellycreamjammedart]

Guess who finally has a new working PC???

YIPPIEEE!

[lowpawly]

life has gone downhill so bad after they stopped supporting windows 7

[gloombog]

they should've stopped at windows 7 and continued support for all older versions forever

[nexus-nebulae]

just realised that the first media we consumed that made us REALLY sympathetic for the monster was that fucking point and click Mystery Case Files Ravenhearst game. bc that entire game i was legitimately fucking TERRIFIED of the ghost lady in that game but the second i found out her husband was abusive i doubled down on trying to help her escape. and the ending of that game Did make me cry out of fear but hey at least i did in fact help her escape

[thewirewitch]

Honestly, Microsoft should make "Windows 7: The New One" that's literally just the original Windows 7 but with updated security and compatibility with new programs.

Continuing the story,

Nikki nightmare travel log

Everyone: memories = suffering

Mercury being "haughty" to the old god -> extra suspicious

(Of course, his plans have plans)

On that note, I thought he was already gone

Where did Nikki get the mirror (vol 2 I guess)

Fight fight fight

Dodora ;_;

Meeting under the moonlight

Wait, what's going to happen to the other envoys

[TBC]

And that's where I left of. Tapped through the rest of the story so I could claim the concepts >~<

Now waiting for the hell event to appear on Journey Review...
