I have said it before and I will say it again: if you use ai agent tools in your code, your project sucks

oh hey got my @pidgin Christmas card! and it came with stickers! thank you pidgin developers :)

RE: https://furry.engineer/@charcole/115845899626698240 The solution to cheating is to build better games. It is a fundamental principle of cybersecurity that you cannot blindly trust the client - but many game developers don't understand that. This is why client-side anti-cheat *cannot* work […]

Blender is now 5 bits old. Happy 32nd birthday! #b3d

Anyways! More cursed Xbox 360 stuff coming soon hopefully.

normally I wouldn't post this publicly but because bridgy fed doesn't support dms: @maxine.puppykitty.racing please actually pay attention to my profile bio. unless I'm misinterpreting your profile, don't follow me. I should not need to say this.

any day now someone is going to place an 802.11ax access point next to an 802.11be access point and... uhhh... yeah...

A few hours ago, someone told me something like "Give me your contact info, I think you're going to be rich someday." https://hexaheximal.com/blog/building-for-the-greater-good strikes again...

Happy new year! :)

psychology literature on autism is all so cringe. "90% of autistic people are men" 100% of us can't believe you've fallen for this self-fulfilling diagnostic issue. ... and 90% of us wear striped knee socks. "a few autistic people are so high-functioning that they even manage to hold down a […]

I managed to run OpenWrt on my Xbox 360. #openwrt #xbox #xbox360 #Linux

i am close to just starting my own list of specifically llm content farm blog domains because they're so goddamn annoying and prevalent and the existing lists are either much broader in scope or focused on specific communities

mobile-config-firefox is truly cursed. I try to mute an account, it freezes, and the page scroll jumps around randomly

consider

I ran a Minecraft server on an ASUS router with OpenWrt. Somehow, that actually works.

One thing I wish folks knew better about "Linux" that the annoying evangelists never seem to care to mention. One of the most important differences from other platforms if *how you get your software*. You don't download it from the author/publisher who might be (these days, is) bundling […]

in case fedora drinks too much of the AI kool-aid: what linux distros out there are "easier" (no arches or nixes please), have a decent software library, and keep everything _reasonably_ updated (as in, a step or two below rolling release breaking everything)?

I don't mind if your site is doing a stats recap thing, but... please don't announce it by pretending that I have two thousand and twenty-five unread messages.

I'd like to take this opportunity to state that I am now very annoyed by networkmanager

if you don't like what mozilla/firefox is up to, consider throwing a bit of money (or better yet, set up a recurring donation) at servo. you'll help fund a future better option and hopefully not have to deal with your browser developers constantly chasing trends

shout out to quad9 for being undeniably THE best dns provider

I keep getting notifications where I expected it to be from someone and/or about something specific but the actual notification was completely different, just with coincidental timing

why is mastodon recommending that I follow an account on an instance that was shut down years ago

gajim on a chromebook is quite something

I probably follow too many fedi accounts 💀

[out of context] seeing that text disappear while listening to dramatic music was the worst timing

fedi, please vote turn left on this: https://sharkey.skydevs.me/notes/ag0a0zbyk4zb0igx

Fun fact: Android has a built-in MIDI synthesizer! At least on AOSP/LineageOS, you can open a MIDI file from the Files app and it just works.

A New York subway rider has accused a woman of breaking his Meta smart glasses. “She just broke my Meta glasses,” said the TikTok user, who goes by eth8n, in a video that has since garnered millions of views. “She was the only person annoyed. I never spoke to her, I even let her sit down when […]

I heard someone refer to an IT dashboard as a “trashboard” and I can’t stop giggling.

fedi, I'm disappointed.

# Nexus Client Hi, around two weeks ago I started making Nexus, a Matrix client. In these two weeks, I've made great progress, as you can see in the progress list. However, I'd love some help implementing some features, or help with UI design, as it takes me […] [Original post on wetdry.world]

can we please stop treating piping curl to bash as a good thing. it's an unbelievably bad idea yet extremely common

The postmarketOS v25.12 release is coming closer, which means that once again we need your help with selecting a wallpaper! :blobcatthinkOwO: Poll is in the comments. All of them were made by the talented @dikasetyaprayogi, thank you so much!
