SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 02/09/2026Dumb idea I just had: what if we called the Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency the "Hostmaster General" instead. 021
SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 27/08/2026Genuine question: what is the point of this? What does Trump think this will accomplish? People are still going to call it Lake Ontario, just like people still call it the Gulf of Mexico. All this does is make the executive branch look like a bunch of whiny toddlers. 000

SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 18/08/2026Big desk doesn't want you to know this, but you can just use a plastic folding table for a desk. I've used mine for years now and I haven't had any issues with it whatsoever. Plus it's got a lot of desk space and leg room. 101
SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 15/08/2026I don't understand how windows users can tolerate this shit. Genuinely why the fuck does this operating system need to spend several minutes applying updates on boot instead of just applying them while running. Pretty much every modern UNIX-like doesn't do this. 000

SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 28/07/2026It feels amazing to have a benchmark like this which more closely mirrors the software development lifecycle. AI won't replace human programmers anytime soon, and this benchmark demonstrates that. 021
SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 25/07/2026Long story short: Windows is horrible and has been horrible since it's inception. There is no good reason why Command Prompt should do this. There are graphical systems going back to the 1980s that haven't had this issue (e.g. X11 w/ UNIX) for some pretty fundamental and important reasons. 0100

SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 12/07/2026Seriously though Lore is really interesting for a bunch of reasons, like treating binary data as a first class citizen rather than being text-oriented like Git, or having an API-focused design. github.com/EpicGames/loregithub.comGitHub - EpicGames/lore: Lore is a next-generation, open source version control systemLore is a next-generation, open source version control system - EpicGames/lore 020
SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 12/07/2026Epic Games is a confusing corporation because one day they'll be creating a digital consumerist hellscape (Fortnite) and the next day they'll be open sourcing a next-generation version control system they created (Lore) under the MIT license. 100

SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 03/07/2026Been trying out Godot recently, and while It has a really interesting design it also ruins it for me with a scripting environment that makes me want to tear my hair out. Also, there's at least 4 ways to do C++ game code and they all suck. 000

SkinChangerDev 🔻 @skinchanger.dev · 29/05/2026Writing lua scripts for textadept has made me realize just how needlessly complex most scripting languages are. If lua isn't enough for your usecase, you probably shouldn't be using a scripting language in the first place. 000
