i realized i don't have a pinned post talking about why i don't post on mastodon and then forward the tweets to twitter.
some of you know who i am on both platforms and know that the content is incredibly different between those platforms. this is because i think i should maintain some kind of a professional facade for the people who just want to follow me for tech related stuff or updates to hashbang.sh infrastructure.
as you might have noticed. this account is not on a hashbang.sh fedi profile. we don't yet have a mastodon instance for hashbang.sh. once we do have a mastodon instance for hashbang.sh, i will either be mirroring tweets from there, or - most likely - will be moving 100% to mastodon in terms of content creation.
i don't have enough of a following on twitter anyway to warrant putting my important posts there.

body odor, acne-adjacent
Decided to try and do something with the blackheads on my nose. Despite what I would consider to be reasonable hygiene practices, they've been there for years. I've just not really cared. But today I was interested and tried to squeeze one out.
The fucking smell is so God damn disgusting. And it's right on my fucking nose so there's really nothing I can do about it. No amount of washing helps.
family member passed away, grieving, gun (not related)
anyways tinkered with my rifle and pistol a bit and that gave me enough of a distraction to not really think too hard about it.
got a new red dot for my rifle and an underbarrel flash light for the pistol. waiting on red dot for the pistol too.

family member passed away, grieving
Was gonna ask my dad to keep an eye out for a 3080 under a thousand. He could always find components somehow. We'd bond over getting new parts and building franken-computers. I'll make do without him, but I've never missed anyone more than I miss him right now. I wish I could talk to him about work, even if he'd just nod and pretend to understand what I was talking about.
I've never felt so lonely. He was always so supportive. It's hard going on without him.
How to parallelize any loop in zsh:
Insert the following "limiter":
while [ "$(jobs | wc -l)" -ge 14 ]; do sleep 1; done
14 is the amount of parallelized jobs.
Then, put the code inside the loop into a shell script, and launch the shell script like, `zsh your_script.sh your_arg1 your_arg2 &`.
The & is significant. That's what parallelizes it.
