Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 06/11/2024this album absolutely slaps BTW, end-to-end bangers somehow manages to be both soothing and energizing at the same time, which is the *exact* vibe I needed this morning I highly recommend it:rodrigoygabriela.bandcamp.comRodrigo y Gabriela (Deluxe Edition), by Rodrigo y Gabriela20 track album 060
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 06/11/2024fuck it, time to have a long, hot bubble bath, and blast some upbeat music while I'm at it for the ceremonial value: a ritual to mark a clean break, to tell your brain "well that thing's done, it's time to move on to the next thing" I'm going with… Rodrigo Y Gabriela's self-titled album 0190
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 06/11/2024no seriously: fkin HOW? *everything* was worse for his odds this time than 2020 Harris had the net approval, the small donors, the ground game, the packed rallies... Trump had Jan 6, the felonies, the visibly disintegrating, the fkin... kirk and musk running shit! it makes no GOD DAMNED sense 3181

Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 21/10/2024so I just had to pull an emergency maneuver with a running washing machine when I realized that in my half-awake state I'd somehow managed to put in dish soap instead of laundry sauce how's everyone else's mornings going? 2140
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 16/10/2024I mean, it's not unpleasant - the chocolate, mint & chili are all really well balanced, none of them overpower the others but "pleasant" also feels like the wrong word? like, it's not intuitively appealing, the id does not immediately crave more it's definitely interesting tho! and that's good too 170
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 16/10/2024just tried some chocolate flavored with *checks notes* peppermint and habanero and I gotta say, it's definitely one of the most flavors I've ever tasted 060
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 21/09/2024this is pretty fun! (if you're into that sort of thing (CS nerd stuff (which I am!))) 020

Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 07/09/2024one last post on this subject before I finish off the last of these bad boys when fully ripe, they look... like dates! 190
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 31/08/2024now my Latest From Follows feed isn't updating - anyone else getting that, or is it just me? latest post I'm seeing is 17h ago: 210
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 30/08/2024hm... just noticed my likes keep falling off posts today I suspect the Brazilians are responsible 040
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 16/08/2024oh hey there's a couple feeds for this sort of thing let's see if this works... 🍽️🍜 220
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 12/08/2024now pondering: I'm trying to vent the heat from my place. I've opened windows at both ends. I have one fan. for maximum efficiency, should I: • run it facing an open window, to push hot air out; • facing away, to pull cool air in; • either would help equally; • not bother, neither would help much? 551
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 11/08/2024thought I'd see if any of my neighbors wanted some of these ended up giving a box to one I've basically never spoken to before which turned into us chatting for a bit, and... I think we're friends now? just playing Stardew Valley IRL over here 3292
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 11/08/2024today's harvest 👇 think I have too much fruit now lmao 3310

Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 03/08/2024ran out of lemons again, so I'm back on my "iced tea: pomegranate molasses flavor" bullshit 0110
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 31/07/2024iced tea (if you think it's brewed long enough) iced tea (if you think it's lemon enough) iced tea (if you think it's brewed long enough) iced teeeeaaaaAAAAH 020
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 29/07/2024This skyfeed feed builder thing is pretty fun, actually - it's a bit limited, but that just means you gotta get clever with it, makes it kinda feel like a Zachtronics game now I just need an excuse to keep playing with it... anyone got any requests? 010
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 27/07/2024say, open question: you know when you've put something off way too long, and you feel guilty about that, but actually doing it would draw attention to how overdue it is, a mortifying prospect, so you still don't do it, which makes the whole situation worse, spiral ad infinitum? or is that just me? 5170
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 27/07/2024aside, life pro tip: trying to lurk on here, ie browse without generating any notifications, means your only available interactions are mute, block & unfollow and, you may be surprised to hear, it turns out that playing social media on "negative reacts only" mode makes it Even Worse For Your Brain 1121
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 27/07/2024up next on disney channel: I get to find out what fresh hell accretes in this little box when you don't dare look in it for, how long has it been... oh, like 4½ months 🫠 060
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 27/07/2024I've been fine, just… took a mental health break didn't say anything when I left 'cos I only meant it to be a few days but then that somehow turned into weeks, then months… and by then my crippling social awkwardness had got me hiding in shame over accidentally ghosting all my internet friends ☹️ 7310
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 23/01/2024I'm gonna have to try to talk him out of this shit, ain't I? *that's* gonna be fun, he's never met a tech hype cycle he didn't jump on …maybe I'll ask him how his crypto bag's looking these days - he brushed off my skepticism of that one too, *might* help make the case my judgement's worth heeding 080
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 22/01/2024quote from aforementioned boss, who is so proud of it he's said it repeatedly: "AI understands data and makes its own decisions" 🤮 1171
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 22/01/2024at today's weekly team meeting, the boss was super excited to announce the launch of a new tool, 'cos one of our L2 support guys got an LLM to write it, and that means We're AI Now Yaaay!!! so I looked under the hood and immediately found an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability 🙃 0150
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 13/01/2024finally (finally!) got around to watching ⊃∪∩⪽ it's very good! 5120
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 08/01/2024this place has ruined me every time I see a post that uses the word "gridlock" I end up having to back up and start over from the beginning because in the first attempt, my brain invariably reads it as *ahem* "girldick" 3200
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 04/01/2024Introduce yourself with four spaceships 🚀 • Harrier, Pirates of Drinax (Traveller) • Theseus, Blindsight • Talyn, Farscape • Mondoshawan ship, The Fifth Element 180
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 01/01/2024having never watched Steamboat Willie, I figured I'd take the opportunity to finally see what all the fuss was about main impression: dang, that's a lot of cruelty-to-animals-based comedy kinda interesting as an object lesson in how far those mores have shifted archive.org/details/Stea... 2101
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 01/01/2024happy new year (as & when appropriate in your respective local timezones) y'all! 170
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 27/12/2023oh man I'd forgotten how much I enjoy Justice I gotta dig out my copy of † now - I think I forgot my mp3s on a laptop I've since replaced the replacement of, but the CD I ripped em from gotta be around here somewhere 140
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 26/12/2023also of note, the centerpiece of said feast was stuffed turkey... thigh! and that one I can recommend *without* reservation - *way* more flavorsome & less dry than the usual 040
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 25/12/2023got wine drunk & watched Rebel Moon while my christmas feast went down verdict: I wouldn't say it's a "good movie", in particular the dialogue is uhhh... very Zach Snyder, but - I had fun! it's entertaining :) and they get massive bonus points for doing something in a totally new setting for once 290
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 22/12/2023specifically - it's a front-loader, and it seems the drum somehow started rubbing against the rubber… seal? gasket? thing at the front, and the spin cycle caused enough friction for… well, I got a faceful of rancid smoke when I opened the door, and there's little bits of rubber all over my clothes 130
Pelafina H Lievre @pelafina.bsky.social · 22/12/2023. . . and my washing machine just broke down 0120
