as you may have noticed: my temper and wiggle room for stupidity in security reports have shrunk to a minimum

Thank you for your dedication to the curl cause and others. You inspire me to be more stable, less chaotic, and confident in my journeys. I appreciate your sharing and your candor.

Games I love like Warsim, The Wastes, and usurper inspired me to think about creating my own console-based game. Then I wrote 750 lines of code just to make a reusable system for console menus. And realized the save system is going to be another 500 lines, probably. And then the settings system. And after thinking about 2000 lines of code before I can get to anything even resembling the simplest game mechanic, I'm not inspired, anymore. Why is 99 percent of programming doing the least interesting part of any project?
That's one reason why the majority of open source projects lack proper finishing and polishing.

@RegGuy Hmmm. I only wish I found that kind of thing fun. But it's just a lot of thinking about menu lists and settings objects and what gets passed where and how and what's global and blah.
From the standpoint of accessibility-first, need recommendations for office suite software that is not Microsoft Office? It doesn't have to do everything that MS Office does. Documents and spreadsheets are all I really need. I'm also rather hesitant to go the Google route for this stuff. Libre Office? OpenOffice? Any ideas?
Ontario opposition NDP Leader Marit Stiles said it best. “It’s the same Doug Ford playbook; do nothing, then complain to grab headlines," Stiles said. "Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe flew to China with the Prime Minister to advocate for his province’s canola farmers.
"Meanwhile, Ford was sitting at home, leaving Ontario workers with no one to fight for them. If you’re not at the table, you’re not fit for Premier." cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/dou…

Hello #Fediverse,
as #FOSDEM 2026 is approaching I was thinking about bridging the livestreams to #PeerTube as well.
Streams are under #CreativeCommons license that allows sharing videos, so there is no big deal in it.
As there are plenty of rooms (and we dibs Social Web for #VHSky :) ), it would be fun to coordinate streaming accross multiple instances to stream as much rooms as possible without overloading single instance.
What do you think, anybody interested?
Also, anybody has idea how to actually bridge m3u to PeerTube? @j4n3z maybe?

I work from home a lot. Some days, there's not much work to do so I wait for my wife and son to go out and shout "BIG DAY IN THE BIG BOYS BED' and both dogs run upstairs to burrow under the bed covers and we all have a mid-morning nap together. It's the highlight of my week.
I’ve found an issue with syllable start detection compared to Python. In Python, the detection starts at a consonant if it's followed by a vowel, which influences pitch path calculation. This could explain some differences. But there’s also an exception for stressed vowels. Interesting!
Let’s be honest, Ring was already some technocratic, dystopian BS, but if you needed a reason to finally, finally kill it with fire, here’s your reason: Ring is partnering with Flock to help ICE spy on you and your neighbors for the government 👀
