What did you do this weekend?
What did you do this weekend?
I'm curious to see what Lemmygrad does in their free time, apart from shitposting on an obscure internet board.
I went out to a park to chill in the shade and read a book / sleep in the grass.
I also spent some time working on my indoor herb garden. My basil started quickly but since a few days, my cilantro has joined the race as well. Unfortunately there are no signs of the spring onions yet, but inshallah they will grow.
I made banana bread with my gf and afterwards we went to a bar.
Today, I will do a workout and follow my cat's advice of doing absolutely nothing. It's too hot and with the sun on maximum UV strength, going outside would mean turning into a lobster very quickly.
I installed Gentoo alongside Debian and Windows, took me an entire day 😅
Also I saw on distrowatch that there is an open source OS on development that can run Windows stuff natively (.exe programs and all these things), It's called ReactOS. I tried installing it on my PC but the USB just wouldn't boot :(
And this isn't from my weekend but I discovered that I absolutely love the KDE Classic cursors for some reason. I guess it's because they are so simple and kinda give retro vibes.
ReactOS has been in the pipeline for a long time I believe. Have they made much breakthroughs recently? Would be legitimately awesome if they got it to be usable, kinda have my doubts about its viability as a true windows alternative though tbh, as awesome as it would be.
My partner and I are on the last few days of our Summer Solstice holiday. We hiked up a local mountain with a friend yesterday and today we're recovering on the sofa from a week of hiking, hill walking, and slightly-too-much food.
I'm alternating between reading some sci-fi on my e-reader (currently reading Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks), writing some psuedo-code for a single-user headless ActivityPub server I'm thinking of implementing for fun, and brewing tea. I might watch a movie later, if I get the urge.
Earlier, as part of a bonus Solstice gift, I set up my partner's laptop with an N64 emulator, a USB N64-like controller, and some old games she enjoyed as a child so she's on the other side of the sofa full of nostalgia and smiling, engrossed in her games.
Our cat is curled up on my feet and stretched out onto my partner's lap; her favourite cuddle position.
that's so nice. really heartwarming image of you two I have in my head! 😍
kept working on my stable diffusion skills/rng
I normally always work on the actual weekend, but during my days off I try to stay away from computers too much (if you ever really care to check, you can expect there to be a couple days every week I don't ever post here). I can't entirely, I am on call 24/7, but I try not to look at PCs if I can avoid it.
Most of my days off I do some combination of sleeping, reading, and cooking in generally that order.
This weekend I mostly played FFXVI. I don't game as much anymore, but there are a few big releases I definitely go in for.
read the news, shitpost, study, shitpost went out for a rollerblade, shitpost, made some music, shitpost. enjoying my last free time before go back to daily grind tomorrow.
