There really is a lot of exciting stuff happening!Jon (The Nexus Of Privacy)
Back at home, I have bad headaches almost daily. In just a little over two weeks of being away from home, I've had one.
Now I'm starting to wonder if it's 85% stress-related, because there is certainly plenty of it there.

Gajim on macOS 
Installing Gajim on macOS just got a lot easier! Gajim is now available as a packaged DMG setup file 📦, which can be downloaded and installed.
At the moment, we provide an experimental nightly for testing. If everything goes well, the next Gajim release will include a macOS setup as well 🎉

Okay, 2026 is the year I am going to actually get back into writing.
I have three ideas for articles lined up.
1) Advanced, and often crazy, networking under FreeBSD.
2) MPLS on JunOS in my home, the how and why.
3) A brief history of IP Networking; Classful vs CIDR and FLSM vs VLSM.
Now I just gotta do it.
I can say, however, that I've reunited with an "old friend" who is still in great shape. Before I get dozens of replies about it being insecure: in theory, it is, but it's not accessible from the outside. It's isolated within its own network and is only able to connect and fetch backups for 'extreme disaster recovery' (only at specific times, restricted by specific firewall rules). It served its purpose today, and tomorrow, it might be even more useful.

The best thing about modern software is the error messages that show up even before the condition has completed.
Like... "NO INTERNET OMG MAKE SURE YOU ARE ONLINE" which sits there for the first few seconds after you launch the app, and goes away when the software itself finally gets around to even attempting the connection for the first time.
Microsoft Windows, an entire operating system, likes to do this.

I wonder if Guix should publish a statement on generative AI.
The statement would acknowledge what I and many view as a fundamental mismatch between genAI and an empowering and humanist project, and it could provide guidelines for the project’s attitude towards genAI.

Since you're seeing this on fedi -- or Bluesky, Blacksy, or elsewhere in the ATmosphere -- you already know the value of alternative social media that's not controlled by techbro white supremacist CEO's who make money by exploiting their users and working with their cronies in authoritarian governments.
But, what we have today is only the tip of the iceberg of what's possible.
