Krásné dobré ráno mastodoňata! 🙋‍♀️🐈🐕
Pár poznatků po čtrnáctidenní dovolené:
Ano, do práce se mi nechce.
Ano, pravdu měl ten, kdo tady psal 'winter is coming'! 😱
V pět ráno je chladno, je šero, je syrový vzduch.
Ženský, pro pánajána, v čem se teď chodí do práce? 🤣🤣🤣

Nebuďte zmatení jako Káťa, dejte si snídani....a hlavně.....klid! 😊

@archos Stříhání metru. 😁
Myšlenkami už je člověk stejně na dovolené.
Užij si den. 😊👋

Jj přesně, sice letos nikam nejedem, ale na volno už se těším.


To by se békalo. Jenže víkend skončil a máme tady pondělí. Dnes bude ten první den v novém zaměstnání, tak si říkám “dokud se zpívá, ještě se neumřelo”🎼🎵🎶 #dobréRáno 🤗

system-ui is great for input fields but terrible for most other things.


I heard a discussion at #FOSSY24 regarding "FOSS outside of corporations," referring to the origin of the Free and #OpenSource software movement, beginning with hobbyists and foundations.

Thought I would also include the early contributions to FOSS from and through #HIgherEducation. Many foundational projects have their roots in #HigherEd.

So many people have worked on curbing climate change.
What have we got to show for it?

For starters: The projected warning has decreased by 0.9C. That's considering only actually implemented policies. Pledged emissions cuts go even deeper.

Is it enough?
No.

But we've gone from "It's all going to hell" to "We made good progress let's keep going, and faster."

New blog post! Debugging a rustc segfault using some very cool illumos debugging tools.

Really excited about this one, it is a bit long but there was so much to cover, from how the stack and the heap works to virtual address permissions :D

"Wir schätzen Ihre Privatsphäre" – jaaaa, gaaanz sicher! Und wir teilen sie…

* mit 1574 Partnern
* einschließlich genauer Standortinformationen
* um Ihnen gaaaanz private Werbung zu schicken

Man beachte: Es gibt nur "Alles akzeptieren" – nix anderes. Friss oder stirb!

Unter "Zwekce" geht's dann weiter: 683 Anbieter fordern Zustimmung an. Aha. Laut Taschenrechner wollen also 891 "einfach mal so ohne". Toll. Das schätzen WIR nicht!

@kranzkrone Keine Ahnung, hab ich irgendwann mal eingerichtet und funktioniert halt. Wenn ich mich richtig erinnere, war das irgend eine "social" blocklist in uBO.

Früher haben wir sowas nicht gewusst und es hat uns vermutlich auch nicht interessiert ...


There's a project that has been going around today that uses an LLM to insult someone based on their GitHub profile. I admit I got caught up in the "fun" of this, and didn't think about how sad it is that we think it's cool to tear down each other or even ourselves.

Until I came across this contrasting project by @cadey, which instead uses an LLM to praise someone based on their GitHub profile: praise-me.fly.dev/

@FluidEscence It might feel less generic if the prompt included details about specific repos, like the prompt for the insult thing apparently does.

@FluidEscence I was going to do that, but I'm already hitting rate limits as it is!



New video!

So you're new to Linux, and you're wondering what the what is an ISO file? Or maybe you just don't know why you can't DD a CD?

Here's a video that explains a bit about ISO files, and how to create flash media from them.

wow.. that's such garbage. Ventoy's fine, but it's not the end-all, be-all.
Anyone who claims one shouldn't talk about other options because *thing* exists.. is just wrong.
in reply to Liam

It's weird that this happens in computing discourse, because relying 100% on one thing always leads to tears eventually.

Even weirder when it happens in FOSS circles, as FOSS is supposed to be all about alternatives and freedom of choice. It's like a few people actively want there to be monopolies? (Assuming it's not people from a project shilling for themselves of course.)

SCAM ALERT: Data centers bring practically zero local jobs. They are a tax break scam everywhere they operate.

"Washington lawmakers approved a tax break for data centers to create more jobs in rural Washington, but they can’t say how many jobs the state actually got. Repeated expansions turned a modest program to bring a budding industry to rural areas into one of the biggest corporate tax giveaways in the state."

Myslím, že takhle nějak asi chutná zimní směs do ostřikovačů. Třeba to někdo potřebuje vědět. #alkohol

@brabitom Hostitel @andrej to přinesl když už tam bylo po dně. Naštěstí. A stejně ještě zbylo. Asi :-D Prý jako nový nebyl tak zlý.

Andrej měl ještě druhý vzorek, to už byla o něco lepší směs do ostřikovačů. Ale výrobce raději nenapsal složení... ;-)

Thanks to @FluidEscence, I just learned you can customize touchpad gestures. Windows has presets like volume or switching desktops, but you can also bind any hotkey to a gesture. Right now, a 3 finger tap restarts NVDA, just as a test. I never knew this was possible. makeuseof.com/windows-11-touch…

IF YOU ARE EUROPEAN HOLY FUCK PLEASE SUPPORT THIS

eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#/…

This initiative calls to require publishers that sell or license videogames to consumers in the European Union (or related features and assets sold for videogames they operate) to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state.

To be successful, a European citizens' initiative has to reach one million statements of support as well as minimum thresholds in at least 7 countries.

Insane is a word that comes to my mind.

That's about 33 times the size of curl - for a set of drivers.
