honestly i should start just blocking people who don't adhere to my "don't follow me out of blue" policy

so, to make a proper introduction (how many times has it been already?)
hi, i'm Michał, i go by he/him pronouns. i speak english and polish.
i study computer science at uni of Warsaw, i did my BSc thesis while on hiatus from fedi, and (to dismay of a google recruiter back in january) i'm back for MSc.
i usually don't like computers anymore, but i don't have much else to turn to. i think rust and zig are super cool programming languages, but the market here is more into python (which i guess is fair because it's faster to write a full django web app without tests than get something in rust to compile if all you have is 4 interns). i like having a lot of choices when it comes to programming languages.
i like video games (not so much when they're competitive though), anime (as can be seen from my profile picture which has been Shima Rin from Yuru Camp for the last few years) and webcomics. my musical taste is kinda all over the place.
my first fedi instance was niu, and now i've come a full cycle of grief towards fedi and i am back to step 1, or so it seems.
i'm looking forward to hanging out here again!

My Server Is Down And I Don't Know Why

bad news the person on nixos arm matrix channel was ranty about how rpi boards are fucked

good news turns out that once you replace kernel nixos on rpi400 boots and has working ethernet

i'm still ruining my raspi so my instance is down

there's a shogi romcom anime this season and the protagonist's flirting game is about as good as fedi's

fyi i'm gonna assume @michcio@fedi2.0x7f.one is a powerful enough fedi instance that i can consider it my main

y'all be like "how tf 10yo child streams his room to youtube" when there are 5yos scrolling tiktok ad nauseam

i should actually just figure out what makes libreelec so good at playing h265 on pi400 and somehow force nixos to replicate that

side note: i think i would like to see a ping tool with a text UI kinda like in old windows defrag tool like you get a square for each ping sent and it fills when a response is received and maybe the colour depends on latency idk

lol i will be tempted to go with 8gb haha

i think i will have to buy another raspberry pi again because no 1gb ram is not enough for the amount of stuff i'm putting there

i wanted to install a photo gallery app on my yunohost and now it's swapping to hell and back

i'm going to try out misskey over at @michcio@fedi2.0x7f.one
so far it's, a lot

"Althought Ubuntu 21.10 comes with PipeWire, it is not enabled by default. Let's see how we can do that in 3mn." is this mn for minutes or months

had a dream about concrete brutalist spaceships and then woke up into another dream about being a write or that first world but my parents were sneaking sponsored food content onto my desk in hopes that it would show up in my writer/artist livestreams

yeah me neither

just realized i now have an xmpp account again because of this, smh
anyone wanna see if i messed up the config or not

the article said "very fine grind" so i yanked the knob of my dad's modded electric coffee grinder in the fine direction and at some point something made a loud cracking sound but hey it didn't explode
