Wheat field in Western Oklahoma [OC]

Currently on a road trip and wanted to practice some negative space photography.

Favourite word and why?
  • Entreat - verb - ask someone earnestly and anxiously to do something

    It's a handy word that kind of combines "pleading" and "asking". It's a bummer it fell out of style because I can think of many scenarios where it would fit perfectly.

  • What's your favourite colour? [Non-political version]
  • Non-blue grey. A lot of greys will have a blue tint. I like grey that doesn't have that blue tint. I like it because it's a neutral color that's easy to match bright colors to, but it doesn't feel dated like beige. If I had to pick a specific shade, I'd pick 50% grey, but I like a lot of greys.

  • Fleshy Pods
  • It's a vestigial structure from when the meme format was first introduced. It was meant to show doing something despite no one requesting it. It could work without it, but then it's considered a different meme format.

  • Is Linux pretty much unusable with an Nvidia GPU?
  • It might be Mint or an issue with your laptop. I've been using Arch for a while and haven't had major performance issues. Before I used Arch, I used Pop!OS and didn't have any issues either. What are your laptop specs? Have you already looked into Nvidia Optimus? Have you tried other distros?

  • What hobby do you have that no one else in your family shares?
  • As someone who used to be into cubing, I find it immensely amusing that it's one of the few hobbies where the Chinese off-brand is actually better than the original name brand. My main cube was a Moyu Weilong GTS2M.

  • [OC] Cotton fields of Southern Oklahoma

    I tried my hand at astrophotography, and I think I did alright. The title is where I was when I took it.

    Invidious Docker install hanging?

    I'm trying to setup an invidious instance with Docker, but it isn't completing.

    It's been giving the same message for over an hour, and I can't connect to the web interface either. Any ideas?

    I took this photo in March of 2022. I have a taller crop and color version if anyone wants it.
