Apparently it's maintenance week. Spurred on by some thing at work I've already:
- dug out and updated a 1y old branch to bump deps in one project, also redid the Dockerfile
- cleaned up and merged another branch in another project, also dep bump and rewrote deployment
- in progress of updating an 8y old companion tool for the first project (never really used)
Oh and I guess I should grab dependabot and/or renovate for private projects.
Now is the time for really hot take! :ablobcool:

Holy cow, how convoluted can you make a "report a bug" procedure, Github?
No, we don't have bugs, everything must be a user error, so please post in the feedback forum, or choose from one of these 7 categories and none of them say "Our fucking website has a bug".
Apparently you have to google it, not find it in their footer. https://support.github.com/contact/bug-report

Question: "How can I add a custom resolution under wayland? My old xrands script doesn't work anymore."
Answer: "Wayland is a protocol and you should look how your DE handles that. (also implied: you are an idiot for asking)."
If you ever answered something like this to someone whose distro switched to wayland without them changing anything else: Fuck you and please just don't talk to people ever again.
In other news, yes I also have this problem, but with a Virtual screen on a VM and all I'm finding are condescending non-answers. If the answer is actually to change a kernel mode setting... lol
My husband and I have been laughing this for ten minutes straight 😂

I was trying out a new language/framework combo and so I wrote a thing[tm] and it's been fine until I came to Auth. OAuth to be exact. Why does Auth have to be so shitty? Yes, I've done this a dozen times and I usually have no problems implementing something for the dozenth time in a new language. But Auth annoys me and keeps me from putting the thing live.
