My daughter got into anime through friends and I got some street creds by talking about how things used to be. Buying laserdiscs in Japan, subbing them and showing them at conventions. I subbed two episodes of some show I don't remember. Or shipping VHS tapes across continents. My daughter doesn't care, of course. But her friends were impressed. I fear that that was my last hurrah, though. I got nothing else.

Well, that sounds good. But my god is that a complicated mess. It's not working for me and I don't have the will to deal with that crap anymore. Set up my own CouchDB, ran the init script, connection test is fine. But I can't get the plugin to actually sync anything, it just keeps failing with "Failed to initialise the encryption key, preventing replication". Whatever that means. It won't explain which encryption key or what failed. I did not enable E2E encryption.

In general, yes. The main app works fine. But when I try to connect the notes app to my account, it just crashes and loops back.

Edit: Nevermind, I fixed it. Works fine now and looks to be exactly what I need. It was also trivial to import all my Trilium notes.

Well, OK, you got me to give that a try!

Why videos? I feel like an old man yelling at clouds every time something that sounds interesting is presented in a fucking video. Videos are so damn awful. They take time, I need audio and I can't copy&paste. Why have they become the default for things that should've been a blog post?

I'm not mentally ill enough for that. 😛

That solution doesn't exactly spark joy. Folder sync in general is, in my experience, too error prone. So I just stay away from it. Maybe I'll need to finally give it another try.

I have a Nextcloud instance, which I don't use much because the native apps are janky as fuck. I tried the notes app just now and it just won't even let me connect to my account. That's a level of bullshit I don't have the energy to deal with. Which is sad, because it would be nice to use something I already have.

I started playing NMS a while back, but I had zero clue what I needed to do. I guess I need to go back and check if I skipped a tutorial.

The cruelty is the point.

Yeah, exactly. People should have fun. In fact, I wish all games would include cheats. Sometimes I want to go crazy.

Do kids these days know what a CD is and have a computer with a disk drive? And even if they did, would they care enough to try it? Sounds very unlikely.
