Migrating to an incompatible new IRCd

Bad way: turn it off and on again
Better way: phase in new network, phase out old one
Galaxy brain: do that and also wipe the services DB

Every time I hear about some new Freenode related plan there's a half decent way of implementing it and a batshit crazy way of implementing it

You'd think of all people the Sultana, monarch of the richest nation of Eorzea, would be able to get a chair which fits her.

Lalafel must have such back problems

Looking at the NRFX library for the first time: oh, this seems like a surprisingly well designed vendor BSP

A little later: wait, why are there *zero* examples? Why are all the examples using the legacy deprecated driver layer?

Working with an NRF52 for the first time and ST, the sins of your STM32Cube HAL library are forgiven because it comes with working fucking examples

Trying to print off a form and somehow the text on page 1 prints fine, but not on pages 2 through 4?

Computers were a mistake
