Yes. Dudes often forget cute girls who flirt with them at conventions. Happens all the time. Sure. Also, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you, along with some parcels of swampland in Florida.

    As a dude, I can’t really either. But it should also come with the words, “in public.” At least in my experience, women are just as gross. Just not where everyone and their sister is there to note said behavior*.

    *:observation void in groups of female friends hanging out with no one else around. There will sometimes be discussions that are nasty enough to make Bob Guiconne’s head spin. Exceptions also made for long term significant others – there’s only so long you can hide it as much as they’re around.

      …no. You really must not get it.

      There’s a difference between a conversation between trusted friends, and things you suggest to someone you just met.

        Well of course there is. That went in there more for the crowd that sees dudes and super gross and immediately feels that true converse must be that women are sweetness and rainbows and never gross. Unrealistic, if nothing else outdated as all get out, but you still run into it a surprising amount of the time. Was well aware that that wasn’t particularly where she was going with it in the comic, just kinda made me laugh and comment as to the common phenomenon you get when people say this kinda stuff.

  • Every Time I Say My Desk is 'Peak' Cyberpunk, I End Up Topping It ( November 30th 2020 )


    My current desk

    So every few years I've felt the need to make an update about my ever evolving workspace, and how I (more and more) seem to be cultivating an aesthetic that screams "secondary side character in a cyberpunk story who probably gets killed off in the third act." It's an aesthetic I've been working on on purpose (well, not the getting killed off bit), but every time I declare it's reached "peak cyberpunk" I end up outdoing it soon after anyway.

    Like that 2017 update? I exceeded it in mere months.

    Anyway, since I made some significant changes recently, I thought I'd post an update about my weird hole of many screens where I run The Nerd & Tie Podcast Network from. I'm not going to run through everything, but I will map out the biggest differences from 2017. The first is (obviously) the 32" display up top, which I now use to stream media on instead of the Kindle Fire (though the Kindle Fire is still used for audio bumpers on podcasts). An Apple TV runs that, though I also have a spare Switch dock hooked up sometimes. The Linux laptop is gone (I mean I still have it though), replaced by the late-2011 13" MacBook Pro which used to be my main personal machine. That MacBook Pro is tucked away, but displays on the relocated black monitor in the lower left.

    Of course, my new main personal machine is a brand spankin' new M1 Mac mini, which is controlled by the keyboard and trackpad that sit where my laptop used to be. I've expanded the physical desk (and retired the mini fridge) to support the monitor for the Mac mini. And don't worry, Linux isn't gone from my desk (and I mean I still use the laptop) -- as you will notice one last monitor on the lower right which is hooked up to a Raspberry Pi 400. This is notably used from a different chair, as that's my "goof around" computer, and would literally be a distraction if I was trying to use it while getting work done.

    It's funny, I bought two computers in 2020, both of which are ARM based. With a good chunk of my desk now on RISC architecture, I'm happy I can just dig out this image without context as I sign off for today...

    RISC is good

Because that would be weird.
