is there literally no way to do this

RT @zkat__@twitter.com

like. I literally just want to:

1. include a file in my dotnet tool
2. be able to pack that dotnet tool
3. get a filepath to that file on disk at runtime that I can load it from

New blog post: "My love-hate affair with technology" https://nolanlawson.com/2021/08/26/my-love-hate-affair-with-technology/

A lot of this will be familiar ground to folks on Mastodon. But I find it useful occasionally to write about my bizarre tech habits, if for no other reason than to explain to myself why I'm doing what I'm doing.

The original covid relief bill included paid sick leave for people with covid. That benefit expired last December, and Democrats failed to renew it after taking the presidency, the House and the Senate.

surely I'm misunderstanding, because surely you're not sliding into MY mentions with anti-union b.s. coming out of your mouth...

RT @ZPostFacto@twitter.com

@zkat__@twitter.com This is true, because "state sanctioned cartel" is literally a synonym for "public sector union"

RT @giltay Anyone in Toronto interested in a 1984 Mac 512K? Free, as-is. Pickup only, East York. It's just light enough to carry on transit.

I kinda need to know whether to hang onto it or Got Junk it by tomorrow, and I'll only be around till the 1st to give it away.

Boosts OK.

Attachments:

• Greenish carrying case.
• An original-style Mac next to an open carrying case, which also has the keyboard and external disk drive (and the mouse, not seen). The Mac has a piece of tape with R.A.S.C. stamped on it.
• Back of the Mac with the rainbow Apple logo and the badge saying Macintosh 512K. A sticker says it's model number M0001 W and some technical boilerplate.

does anybody know of a web-based backup tool, where you could schedule backups, see the last backup for each item you want to back up, backup logs, and maybe stats like size of backups, etc? I'm imagining some sort of backups dashboard

It's that time of the year again.

I've been using Linux for about 30 years. Mine was the first installation, given Linus didn't install it on his computer, he grew it on top of an existing Minix install, replacing it piecemeal.

My first contribution is over 30 years ago, about April, 1991, the sprintf (now snprintf) function in the kernel.

It's been a fun ride.
