I got ye flask, unfortunately I dislike the contents. Here, all yours!

Cupcake

RtMF: Hello. ${state_dump}. cupcake. world.

cupcake: (the machine that appeared in the Turing Room)

* my idea in beginning this project is to take some currently unused hardware and turn it into a virtual environment host for any and all noisebridgers. at the moment this is just in the planning/arch-is-installed-with-a-few-users stage, and within the rules already known all are invited to use as they see excellent and to, should they desire please hack on this concept and/or transform or replace it with something even greater I cannot imagine if sufficient desire is in consensus!

* the initial rough outline is to be able to instantiate lightweight user-specific VPDesktop's, possibly in lxc containers (docker?), I'd rather avoid full-weight VM's if possible for anything but the reticent OS's that refuse to admit POSIX (or play it by their own corporate-loving standard >.>) --(in explanation, this document is being written by RtMF -- Quinn Morrighan Storm, the GPL'd Girl herself ;) -- so nyah ;) <3

* PLUR[R].

* I am trying at the moment to make time for this among what paying work I *can* find and all the rest of getting myself out of homelessness and into a stable income. To that end I am also using this machine as a desktop in the short-term to get through this work more efficiently so I can devote much more of my efforst to projects like this going forward. In the first day it was up I got more done than I had for nearly the full duration of the project to that point (in measurable output, much is also because the thought had matured into fully-formed plans ;) ). Still, for a long time I have tried to ignore the reality that despite how disgustingly selfish this feels, I absolutely have to do this or...something like it? I have to spend some time and energy focusing on handling my own issues, on (as we called it around the home I was part of in Sacramento called Concordia, also run on consensus) "Oxygen Mask" - that is, just like on the plane, put on your own first so you actually *can* help your neighbor. As I really want to be able to make a consistent difference in the world again, I have to accept this responsibility to...somehow be ethically selfish for a time; however that doesn't stop me from still feeling really icky about not spending more/all of my time working exclusively on projects to benefit others/everyone/add more cool shit to the world/make everything less tedious/the list goes on, and even worse when I do take time to work on [especially the social side of] these projects, so if I ever seem stressed out or really weird around these ideas, this would be why, I am trying to work through it, but please understand, you've all been excellent and I do not think I have done anything intentionally unexcellent, I am simply hyper-aware of every single time I drop a phone on the floor or forget wher I put something or...whatever, and of the fact that right now I simply don't have the level of non-me resource to commit that most people do, so I initially tried to overwork myself to make up for it, made a bit of a mess, got embarassed, and feel even weirder/worse that I feel so fucked up over what amounts to a ~$100 laptop that was mildly damaged likely not even beyond simple repair (if at all) by an attempt to fix accidental damage.

* in closing, I have do and will continue to dedicate my life to doing what I can to make sure nobody else has to go through these kinds of feelings because it sucks and there's no need for it, we can have a better world, noisebridge itself is among the living proof of this!

* there will be CUPcake. there will be pizza. there will be party. these things we hold true.

PS: the Ubuntu install (user: noiseproject) is intact and has a grub boot entry. Just reboot and pick it if you'd like to use it :)

PPS: noisebridge is in sudoers, system has yaourt installed, everything should function as expected, https://wiki.archlinux.org/ is the best place to start if you want to learn more, #archlinux on freenode exists but I do find that the mood there is not nearly as focused on being excellent (at least nearly as consistently) as it is on the wiki, so I'd rather direct people there and encourage the tone and quality of information found there :) (though if you'd like to help out in #archlinux, I'll loan you my flame-proof shelter and a few LARTs ;) )

PPPS: I'm found as RtMF on slack and IRC on many nets including freenode. Don't be afraid to contact me / talk to me (especially in text, I'm much better there than face to face, it grabs exclusive lock on all my cores >.<)

PPPPS: All of my english teachers tried and failed to get me to increase the severity of my punctuation on the space->comma->semicolon->period axis by at least 0.5-1 per sentence. They clearly failed. I send them my undying gratitude. (especially the one who said I reminded her of Poe. bullshit, but thank you!)
