Dead YT channels that you stay subscribed to and visit every now and then?
Technoblade and Mitten Squad are the 2 I keep. I miss TB's humor and MS's Fallout & Skyrim challenge videos.

What do you miss that's ultimately inconsequential but still deeply personal?
Taco Bell and the Quesarito.
Fuuuck, why did they remove it? It was the whole reason to go to Taco Bell!

People with pollen allergies, what do you do to deal with the symptoms?
For me, i found that when the pressure in my head gets extremely bad from blowing my nose constantly, laying down for a few hours helps.
I wear headphones, so I think it traps the pressure inside. Therefore, I lay down without wearing them. (IDK if that's true or not)
Most meds for me don't help, but the Flonase nasal spray I've seen people mention does help.

Reply in thread
Yeah, after seeing it mentioned multiple times, I tried Flonase.
::: spoiler Not sure if this breaks Rule 5. If it does, let me know. I tried it and it worked a little (I've never used nasal sprays before)? I know it saids to sniff while spraying, but IDK how hard to do it. How hard to you sniff while doing it? :::

What is a big internal debate within a fandom or hobby you are a part of that outsiders probably wouldn't care about?
Programming and Linux. Oh boy, what to pick...
Terminal text editors: VIM vs Emacs is the main debate there. (There are others but these are ones people argue the most about)
Linux Distros: Arch, Debian, Mint, CachyOS, ...
Init Systems: Systemd vs OpenRC. Honestly, probably the most toxic debate on this list.
Programming Languages: Python, Shell, but the heated one is C vs Rust
A non-exhaustive list of ones I couldn't think of a category for:
I love computers and Linux, but man, the amount of toxic in-fighting and gatekeeping is a real turnoff. Just use what you want. At the end of the day, we are all nerds doing what we love.

Steam adds official support for game version-specific Workshop mods
That's pretty cool. I wonder if some devs will use this in conjunction to the "Betas" system and have separate versions there that support mods for older versions.

Boys, don't dev alone or you'll end up with a git log like mine
You don't just write your entire project, then make your first commit?

What's something interesting (to you) you'd like to share about your current hyperfixation/obsession? (Infodump safespace for both neurotypicals and neurodivergents)
When writing BASH scripts:
.sh extension isn't necessary./usr/bin/env bash is better than /bin/bash as not everyone has their bash located in bin.set -euo pipefail. It will only cause more issues down the road.These are some of the tips I learned while learning bash.

Just throw the whole PC away. It's someone else's problem now!

Linux phones are more important now than ever
Send me back to the 90s with the flip phone. Old Nokia with a changeable battery, no malicious firmware that has spyware built in. It's just a phone.

3D Printable Steam Machine Companion Cube Case by Jaron
That is not the Aperture Science™ Weighted Companion Cube, but the Aperture Science™ Weighted Storage Cube.
I can see how you mixed them up though.

What is your absolute favorite joke?
I have a joke about piping to /dev/null, but you wouldn't get it.

The developers of PEAK, explaining how they decided on pricing for their game.
For me, the price listed is the price listed. If it's $5, it's $5. $8 is $8, etc.
This kind of ratio would just confuse me otherwise.
