Just got reminded of the days when workstations ran 24/7 and all had public IP addresses. I'd `finger` the SGI box that my roommate liked to use in the other part of the town, check his idle time and `eject -t` his CD-DROM tray to say hello.

I miss that

jj is the bridge to a better world, but in the future we're using something else entirely

First rule of high performance string processing:

1. Don't!

oh no!

With all the things I hear about it, I am not getting a Switch. Stallman was right

My first little personal project that lives on tangled.sh. I use jujutsu, btw.

I regret throwing away the 40 OS/2 Warp 3 floppies

Just wondering if there is a hint of gender norms at play here, i.e. you are perceived as the one who ought to provide mental work and comfort while they have the privilege of receiving

Wait, @tangled.sh is implemented in @htmx.org?

Testing out tangled.sh (with jujutsu) and this is my first sign that tangled is "social." But I am still wondering: How is using atproto enabling the socialness? I don't even understand how running knots decentrally leverages atproto and how that would be different than using, day, mttq or whatever

AfD macht Angst: Mehrheit der Deutschen fürchtet sich vor der Partei Die AfD spaltet das Land! Während die Rechtsaußen-Partei rund ein Viertel der Wähler anzieht, hat eine deutliche Mehrheit sogar Angst.

Laut ARD-Deutschlandtrend fürchten sich 62% der Bevölkerung in Deutschland vor der AfD.

Leider werden die Ängste besorgter Bürger hierzulande nur ernst genommen, wenn sie rechtsradikal sind.

does it use lower case field names?

This writeup is yet another affirmation for me to start learning zig

A bsky user with a weird political skeet whom I am following. They are tagged as „Jesse Singal“ follower.

Is there an easy way to find which starter pack was responsible for following some weirdos?

I've read somewhere there was no meaningful biological definition of vegetable, only culinary

That reminds me of that dude in 1999 who wrote a cringe mail to a female student, but he wrote the whole text into the address bar which expanded words into addresses, including the word “all” into “all@theuniversity.edu” which was a listserv for, well, everyone, profs, students, admins, clerks…

I suppose VPN’s provide marginal security benefits with shady WIFI’s that are easily perverted by virtually all VPN services being shady.

I do use VPN when travelling, but only because my home router is my exit, i.e. it is convenient, actually secure and most importantly costs nothing

When I think of the weird truck fetish that is dominant in the US, and almost unknown in Europe, “urban cosplay” comes to mind:

A T5 is not a truck, yet hundreds of fold more useful in every conceivable metric.

Trucks are stupid and only americans believe they needed one

*4400 for the station wagon

A t5 can pull 7700 lbs, depending on model up to 13700 lbs. My station wagon(!) can pull 4000 which is way more than enough for the rare occasion.

Trucks are stupid

What is the actual weight of that?

Of course you need to look into the data sheet. With my normal sized car I can pull a trailer with a normal sized car on it. Trucks are pointless

People in other countries also understand that you can pull trailers with small cars. You don’t need a truck

If you were to choose to learn either Rust or Zig from scratch now, which one would you choose?

It’s scat singing, but by kids.

I still have two mini-USB things, sigh
