Hey fediverse, today is the World Sight Day!

How about, as a small gift for the blind and visually impaired folks on here, we step up our alt text game!

Is this... a new @panoramax instance I see there?

Yes, it is! For #Wales! panoramax.wales/

This is not a good look, to put it mildly. I really like(d) my framework 13, but got a MacBook last month. Felt kinda sad because using a framework was so much cooler from an idealistic way. Don’t feel as bad anymore now.

#Framework #DHH

Framework supporting far-right racists?

Hi, I am not exactly sure how best to frame this, but recent events have got me wondering where exactly Framework, as a company, stands with regards to human rights and equality.

Hey, @frameworkcomputer -- since you like big tents, you should also welcome krita, even if the maintainer is a trans woman.

After all, you use Krita in your 12 laptop page...

So, how about you start sponsoring us, too? I think that becoming a corporate sponsor would be great?

Let's talk euros!

I'm a little confused about the Framework/DHH kerfuffle. Is the concern that he's a dangerous person to platform because he has a following?

I haven't read anything from DHH in years, but enjoyed the early 37signals blogs from him and Jason on bootstrapping a company. I guess I've been ignoring him, and I'm not sure why he's getting so much attention now.

Can't other people just ignore him?

Každý rok sleduji, jak dopadli naši běžci na Spartathlonu, ale letos mi to uniklo. Přitom ho Radek Brunner vyhrál v padesáti letech. Jako první Čech! Fantastický výkon doběhnout do cíle, ne ještě být první na 246 kilometrech.

Čech zvítězil v ultramaratonu, uběhl 246 kilometrů. Trenér je cesta do pekel, říká | Forbes

Slovo "runner" má dokonce ve jméně. Jenže Radek Brunner je běžec extrémní. Zvítězil v ultramaratonu z Atén do Sparty, který je dlouhý 246 kilometrů, a to v sedmém nejlepším čase historie. Povedlo se mu to jako vůbec prvnímu Čechovi.

anybody have an idea why some recent FreeBSD update would have broken the ability of ssh(1) to attach to a remote machine using .ssh/config settings that set the HostName to an IP address, but it works if the HostName has an actual name? It doesn't seem to be *all* my ssh-by-IP-address items. Issuing with -vvv shows it hanging after

debug3: Fssh_set_sock_tos: set socket 3 IP_TOS 0x48

If I switch my .ssh/config to have "HostName full.server.name.example.com", it works fine, and FWIW, doing a `host $SERVERNAME` does return the correct/same IP address that was used in the .ssh/config file originally.

For now I've updated it to just use the hostname and it works, but I can reliably switch back and forth and trigger the hang every time. In case it matters, this was with the 14.2p6 I was running as well as the 14.3p3 I just (finally) upgraded to in the hopes it would fix the issue:

$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_9.9p2, OpenSSL 3.0.16 11 Feb 2025

Was looking at the source tree for something, and it has an AGENTS.md file with this item:

* Perform like a top 0.1% programmer

🤔

Oh lol.

Let's talk about fighting bigotry and fascism on the nazi bar that is substack.

I'll get right to it.

In regards to Framework’s latest footgunning, lemme reiterate two things:

1. Tech is and always has been political. Anyone saying otherwise simply wants to avoid being held accountable for their words and actions.

2. “Big tent” policies do one thing: loudly express that you’re perfectly okay becoming the neighborhood nazi bar.

This continues to be exhausting. This is a crappy stance from Framework, but you will never convince a capitalist that your rights matter more than their profits.

Framework supporting far-right racists?

We support open source software (and hardware), and partner with developers and maintainers across the ecosystem. We deliberately create a big tent, because we want open source software to win.

Even those passively trying out AI-this and AI-that are part and parcel of the problem...

I've watched friends, over the last 2+ years, go from "Hey, look at this!" to "I didn't know it used that much energy!" to "Oh f*ck, I haven't had any freelance work in *insert industry here* in months..."

Mdr un gars sur Reddit essaye de justifier l'interdiction pour les similicarnés veganes d'utiliser les mots "Lait" ou "Steak" etc en disant que si c'était autorisé les marques pourraient faire n'importe quoi.

Et il donne l'exemple du fait déjà existant et qui n'est pas concerné par cette loi que comme un steak de viande en France doit avoir 80% de viande , la marque Charal qui vend une "spécialité à l'oignon" qui a l'apparence d'un steak haché surgelé, qui a une photo de steak haché sur la boîte, qui est vendu au rayon des steak hachés dans les supermarchés n'a pas le droit d'écrire steak sur la boîte parce qu'il y a 51% de viande.

Mais le problème c'est le steak végétal de LaVie. 🤡

Trump & his buddies on the RW media are talking about Portland like it's scene from The Last Of Us. The reality is, this is what these troops are being called into stop.

"Za uplynulý rok #Bratislava zaznamenala výrazný nárast agresivity, obťažovania, aj drobných krádeží. Podľa primátora Matúša Valla za to môže aj novela Trestného zákona, ktorá znížila závažnosť krádeží do 700 eur na priestupok."

I disagree with a lot of people here, and that's fine. We can disagree on what tax rates should be. We can disagree on the best mix of public and private ownership. We can disagree on the amount of government involvement in markets. We can disagree on what privacy rights need to be protected by governments versus which need to treat the government as the adversary. We can disagree on which OS is best. We can disagree on the best way to build a Free Software ecosystem (we can even disagree on whether that's a desirable goal).

But we can't disagree on which people are people. If your perspective is that some people are not people, there is no way that we can still have a meaningful conversation. That's not a 'there are two sides' kind of debate. That's a 'no, this isn't a debate and we can't build a functioning society if you disagree' kind of debate.

I replaced my wifi card in my laptop, but perhaps one of the antenna cables was not secured as my signal goes to shit I think and sometimes it just doesn't even see 5ghz.

But if the antenna cables are secured/connected properly, is there a chance that it's expected that I literally replace the antenna cables too? that seems a bit much... I'd have expected them to be compatible because it's the same type of radio

Is it time for a truly ethical computing hardware company? One whose values would be

- open hardware as much as possible.
- repairable, upgradable, standardised.
- open software as much as possible.
- which exclude some hardware choices.
- full open source operating system support, and the default (no forked distro)
- code of conduct including for the choice of project sponsorships.

And many other.

1) when I put 0xabad1dea as my actual name in Lego's website, they rejected it as invalid (presumably because of the digits).

2) When I put 0xabad1dea as my public nickname, they rejected it because it's a "real" name.

which is it?!

One of the recent AI generated bug reports for #curl quite impressively identifies mismatches between a function header's comment mentioning that an argument is optional, but the code uses it unconditionally.

This taking comments into account certainly allows for some extra magic the classic code analyzers can't do.

The third morning marks the end of this first edition of Django On The Med 🏖️

It’s amazing how much we achieved in such a short time, with a small group of focused developers. 💪

The goal of the sprints has been fully reached. But the experience is not over yet, this afternoon’s rest and tonight’s dinner are part of the social side too. 🌅
