[surrounded by a wall of flames] it's wildfire season, baby!!!!!

i think it is technically illegal to set off fireworks in my county due to the dry weather. however that has not stopped anyone for the last 12 months and it surely won't stop them now

someone in my neighborhood is already playing with firecrackers at noon on a sunday. welcome to the united states of america baby

update: i was, in fact, tired

i'm not even tired

god damn it why am i still awake

tbh i feel like the internet as a whole used to be better at answering questions. maybe that weird hobbyist angelfire page is still out there but the search engine game has been effectively fucked by commercial SEO 🙃

i feel like on the old internet there was probably a guy with an angelfire page about how to write a whole TWAIN driver. on the new internet i find nothing but abandoned forum posts asking the same question, OR questionable third party driver suppliers trying to get me to download their updater app

the big problem with my technology questions and hacking impulses is that they're all based on making 15 year old technology work with modern technology. i got our ancient a3 scanner to work with mac a long while back just by downloading the latest drivers, but on windows 10 it just sounds like it's tearing itself apart

this mp3 of third eye blind's "semi-charmed life" is vintage, motherfuckers

circling around from "being embarrassed by music i downloaded from napster at age 16" to "recognizing the shitty music i liked as a teen includes a lot of real bangers"
