  • the city was a mean old broad, and so was my sunday. me and some guy—just another lost soul killing time—went out for brunch, the kind where they serve regret on a plate and charge extra for the privilege. then we pounded pavement, drifting through stores like ghosts with empty pockets. didn’t buy a damn thing. just left fingerprints on glass cases full of things we’d never own.

    this week, i’m back in the grind, punching the clock like a sap, sticking to business hours because that’s when they let you work. last job didn’t care when you worked, just that you got it done. back then, i was a king, a labor aristocrat, calling my own shots. now? just another stiff pulling the national average, watching the dream shrink in the rearview. but at least i got a union now, a real-deal pension, not some flimsy 401(k) scam dressed up like security. something about that makes me sleep easier—like knowing i’ll get a coffin with my name on it instead of a cardboard box.

    next week, though? next week, i hit the bars, where the drinks are stiff and the men are softer than they look. i’ll be cruising, playing the angles, maybe bringing two, maybe three back to my place for a little midnight symphony. if the whiskey flows right and the neon hums just so, i might even call it a perfect night.





  • it’s funny that you’re using gentoo and want to avoid recompiling since the last time i used gentoo was on a single core, first generation imac and it literally took me 3 days to compile the kernel along with the drivers that i needed to get the apple/ppc architecture to work correctly

    it got so hot that i couldn’t even touch it for another day. lol

    does your router have logs and are you able to see the authentication requests or connection attempts? (you could also try setting up another ap with the same bssid and settings to see if it also ignores that too).

    without that and in your shoes; i would exactly duplicate the configuration and versions of your networking stack in your gentoo configuration; everything from the exact kernel version, to the module & firmware version; and onto the nmcli version and configuration. i would even compile the module along with the kernel if that’s what the live fedora was using.
