Super happy to see that my first blog made it into the printed edition of the Internet Phone Book :) https://internetphonebook.net

I’m number 39, one of the first ones =D

I could put this into a metaphor, but I’d rather not. And I’d rather not be too direct either. What destroys me is wanting to help someone and being unable to. Having to watch something terrible happen while knowing there is nothing I can do, standing there with my hands tied in the face of someone else’s suffering. It feels like two different kinds of torture. One for the person going through it, and another for me, having to watch.

Some things, I choose to believe, are truly in God’s hands.

I do not believe in politics. I do not believe in sides. In good and evil. I do have faith in people, though. A great deal of faith. I believe in love for others and in understanding. In equality and fraternity among people all over the world. I dream, and I dream of a better tomorrow. The world was better when our political party was the human being as a whole.
And no, I do not deny evil; I know it exists. I just avoid talking about it. I do not give strength to something that should be disregarded, and that is not why this evil grows. You can be a monk and have darkness in your heart, or a rebel with the peace of a saint. Regardless, evil will prevail wherever love is absent.

One of the wonderful things about Docker: building a minimal Ubuntu image inside Debian.

i spent the whole day editing the layout and design of the same system... i’m terrible at this, zero skills... at least 10 hours doing the same thing over and over again... and it turned out like shit.

i need to find another problem in my life

Among the expressions that fill me with dread, one of them is: “We’re going to have to migrate the server.”

Three years ago, I bought 10 computers for the company with Intel 14900K processors.

Nine of them had problems because of the infamous microcode bug. Today, the tenth one finally gave up too... here we go again for another therapy session with Intel.

anyway, anyway, i found an old shelved project and decided to put it online. it must be about 6 years old by now, but it still works like a charm: https://exif.cool 😎

too tired to write properly, but anyway, i’m moving to a new house and i didn’t remember i had this many books :p

Brazil is an amazing country. We’ve perfected a national magic trick: your money disappears into taxes and fees, and somehow never makes it back to the people. Instead, it mysteriously reappears in the pockets of corrupt politicians. Nothing works properly, nothing gets fixed, and somehow Brazilians still applaud. It would be hilarious if we weren’t the ones paying for the show.
😒

Uninstalling Plausible to install Openrelay. Migrating everything is a lot of work, but it’ll be worth it.

my weather bbs :3

My little system for keeping private tracker accounts alive worked so well that I’m thinking about distributing it on Unraid, hehe. 😋
