  • You can just use the Kotlin compiler, or separate some scratch files in your Android Studio project. There’s nothing wrong with learning Kotlin, but learning Android development is using the whole toolbox at a beginner level.

    The Kotlin compiler can be run from the command line. Doing it that way might separate your concerns.

    Have you looked at using Compose? Philip Lackner has some easy tutorials to follow. It takes some of the major development hurdles out of your way.










  • The Bible as a Manga series by non-Christians or Christians with no need to soap it over. Raw and gritty in the way it was originally described. Old Testament level action stories.

    So people strangely know the entire Bible without a hint of religion being demanded. Post-theology, post-religion in a way that people might understand the idea of an egalitarian world coming out of an absolute quagmire.


  • Arch is great, but it needs longer explanations considering the user needs to do a lot more. Sometimes you find them, but other times you find a snarky superuser with zero people skills.

    It’s a shame they aren’t government standard, so I could take a local course to become a snarky superuser too.

    Most of it involves everyday Linux usages, but some of it is specific to Arch and it breaks so hard. It’s not a great thing when you’re stupid busy and don’t have the headroom to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes all you get is vague theories on how a fix might occur. After that you’re playing shell games trying to debug your problems.

    Definitely recommend for pro-Linux people that have a breakable laptop that can go on the backburner.









  • Bill shock might be waiting for anyone silly enough to deep dive with peertube. And website hosts don’t usually play nice when you want to start streaming media. I can see why a lot of people aren’t jumping in with both feet.

    You have to remember that YouTube has a gigantic corporation to back it. A lot of platforms tend to lean heavily on YouTube for content.

    I think it’s a case of waiting for another expansion in the Fediverse to make it all worthwhile. Otherwise, the app you develop could suddenly find itself disconnected from any instances willing to stream a large volume of content.

    I might be wrong, but that’s what I considered when thinking about contributing.

    I bought the best bamboo pillow I could find and haven’t looked back. All the pillow problems I ever had just disappeared. I hate going anywhere without it.

    Quitting drinking was a bummer. But mainly because most of the people I’m drawn to are sociopathic alcoholics. I don’t know if I hate the game or the player anymore :(
