I've always dreamed of a world in which we have to optimize code for memory usage more often, but I did not expect it to come about because of market distortions by an AI bubble.
By the way, I'm an independent consultant who would be thrilled to optimize your code for you! :)

if you use firefox set browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled to false in about:config
The newest version of Firefox added browser.ml.linkPreview.* settings in about:config, which apparently serve no purpose other than popping up massive, stupid overlays where they offer to use AI to describe the bookmark you've visited 500 times.So fuckin' stupid that we have to constantly disable more and more settings they've randomly added to get around the fact that we've disabled all the settings. It's just the fucking worst, people that run companies are all brain-dead assholes.

Hier gerade: Ein Rücksturz in die 90er.
Damals wohnten wir in einem Haus, das seit den frühen 70ern eine Sechser-WG war und in der links-alternativen Szene Triers einen berühmt-berüchtigten Ruf als Zentrum allen Chaos, aber auch als Ort legendärer WG-Feten hatte.
Für die Badezimmertüre gab es keinen Schlüssel mehr, sodass man, wenn man ungestört bleiben wollte, laut Musik hörte.
Je nach Musik wusste man, wer sich gerade im Bad befand. Z. B. hörte Mitbewohnerin T. entweder Element of Crime, Ry Cooder oder Buena Vista Social Club.
Jetzt hat meine Liebste die Badezimmer-Musiktradition wiederaufgenommen und ich muss nun an unsere ehemalige Mitbewohnerin T. denken, weil meine Liebste Talking Timbuktu von Ry Cooder hört. ^_^
Agréablement surprise de voir que le site des bibliothèques de Paris a été mis à jour pour ajouter des informations sur l’accessibilité numérique des epubs que l’on peut emprunter.
Le site lui est encore loin d'être accessible malheureusement.

Anyone using S3 (compatible) storage for incremental backups of Linux and/or MacOS machines at home? If yes, what backup software/tool? Open source preferred. My first unfocused research suggests to look at restic [1] and maybe just some scripting around rclone [2]. Any hints/links welcome! (Yes, this is part of my project to use local S3 compatible storage based on garage [3])

Somewhere along the line developing Catima changed from "fun little hobby project where I can build an useful thing and have fun" to "oh God if I make a single mistake I risk 125 thousand people losing their data, I must not make any mistakes" and I do kinda miss the old vibe.
I mean it's amazing that my little hobby project got this many people to have just that tiny bit more privacy (yes, loyalty cards inherently are tracking but at least we reduce the trackers) but sheesh 😅

I spent many hours yesterday debunking another hackerone report against #curl.
It's such a good sigh of relief when the ultimate conclusion is that it is not a vulnerability. (disclosed soon of course)
Welcome to #curl 8.18.0-rc3, the third and final release candidate for the pending release:
Some of us are setting up a little assembly at #39C3 today.
We will bring stickers and other goodies.

I have a 4 year old Android phone that has not had updates for a while now. I am not going to use that as a basis for a secure IM system such as Signal.
I do not wish to buy a replacement for this phone. Neither Android nor iOS.
I use Wire IM. I believe it to be secure.
It has the great advantage over many IM systems in that you can register a personal account on Wire using just an email address.
Then you can chat and call using a computer.
Without needing a smartphone.

Flathub's "2025 Year in Review" contains many interesting statistics. I find this one the most interesting: Despite years of full support for ARM in Linux distributions and wild predictions, ARM still has an absolutely marginal share of the Linux desktop user base.

Former Malaysian PM convicted for embezzlement
semafor.com/article/12/26/2025…
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak was convicted of embezzling $539 million in state funds.
Razak, already facing years in jail for an earlier conviction, was part of a complex scandal involving the Malaysian financier Jho Low, who allegedly stole $4.5 billion from a state-owned development company and used the cash to, among other things, fund the Oscar-nominated movie The Wolf of Wall Street.

Was könnte denn eine passende Fedi-Instanz für einen jungen Transmann sein, der sich u.a. für alles, was fliegt, interessiert, und auf den Hund gekommen ist? 😄
Würde ihm gern eine Community hier schmackhaft machen.
