It's also running NixOS 24.11. This'll complicate things.
Of course half the things aren't cached anymore, so... recompiling niri & ironbar for funsies, just so I can set the locale to English.
Well, keyboard set back to English. Firefox still talks Hungarian. But I can live with that. An SSH key so I can ssh home, and laptop should be set.
Aaand done. Verified I can SSH home. Not very convenient, and the WiFi config is a bit awkward, but... I can make it work well enough to last a few days.
I looked in the mirror. I should not have.
algernon goes to shave because he looks like a lost caveman
I will do a mask count at the airports like last time. Pretty sure I will be disappointed again.
Oh. I need to write down the hotel address so I can, like, find my way there from Utrecht train station.
...are trains even available that late in the evening?
I seem to recall they run 24/7, but it was a while ago I checked. Kinda too late now if they don't (there's still Uber, I guess, but... $$$).
Good. Looks like there's a train every ~15 minutes or so.
Oh. And the hotel is a 3 minute walk from the train station. Awesome. How did I not know that.
I shaved. I look like 5 years younger.
Leaving home in ~30 minutes. Last minute "what the fuck am I leaving home" panic sets in, and I'm looking through everything.
~5. I should put my pants on.
At the airport, got through security. Pants are on. Masks off. Not mine, mine's up, but I've seen two masked people this past 30 minutes, and one of them was in the mirror.
Flight delayed by 20 min. I wonder if it will be delayed further.
But! First delayed flight can be crossed off my bucket list!
Gate info in 5 min. Allegedly. Maybe I should visit the loo.
So incredibly tired.
Hmm. There should be a loo near the gate. Not gonna leave my comfy chair till more info then!
Gate located, loo business done. Now we wait for the gate to open.
My flight is displayed on the gate's board.
KLM sent me an SMS about the delay earlier (board displays original departure tho). Will they send another when the gate opens?
I hope that 19:40 is the departure time. Can't read the tiny text above. I hope that isn't when the gates open...
Movement at the gate
People are coming out the gate. I guess that 19:40 will end up being onboarding.
KL1370 boarded. If I come down in pieces... the bot messing knob is on a crin job. Fuck you crawlers.
Well, bad luck crawlers. I'm still in one piece.
Landed in Amsterdam, soon omw to Utrecht.
@petko I could be wearing a kilt! Or a skirt!
@algernon@come-from.mad-scientist.club @petko@petko.me sorry for bringing this up again but holy shit algernon you're the least cishet cishet in existence
