who made this

Buying #beekeeping equipment for this spring: holy crap wax is expensive. 5kg of wax (just for the base structure of the hive) will last me throughout half this year, and costs a punch. I need to learn to extrude wax myself D:

Want: the EU to force Microsoft to rip apart * MS Office (or whatever that crusty thing is called now) * MS Teams * Power BI

Well, Khamanei apparently dead. I wouldn't dislike getting obituaries about Netanyahu, Trump and Putin: it's something I would certainly not be too sad about.

A rare moment where you root for regime change in all three countries involved

Hey internet, what's a decent large-size rigid mouse-pad? I'm thinking of putting a Logitech PowerPlay mat under it. My current setup is starting to feel crusty. I was considering something made of glass, perhaps? Really want it to be rigid, not a roll...

ASML, Airbus, Mistral, Spotify, Vinted, NextCloud, Siemens, Phillips, Ericsson, SAP, Bosch, Wix, Deliveroo, Bolt, Ubisoft, CDprojekt, Zalando, Wise, Revolut, and a government not run by oligarchic pedophile billionaires. #eupol #uspol

Just realized that the project I'm working on would be perfect for Rust's ownership semantics. Instead, I'm working on it with Go, which will likely leak resources D:

Midnight Aglio Olio Peperoncino and crappy anime FTW 🍝

The amount of energy it takes to move Go code into split/manageable packages, I swear...

Valuable feedback. #atlassian #jira

3 3-phase microinverters, or 3 2-phase microinverters, and just wire up accordingly? 🤔

How the heck is AWS EFS this expensive? D:

Hey, look, I actually blogged again! And it's not even midnight yet! https://ocramius.github.io/blog/reviving-the-blog/ #nix #sculpin #blogging

Between nginx.conf, apache.conf and Caddyfile, I understand absolutely nothing anymore. They are all incomprehensible. Can we please just have XML and an XSD for it? I'd also settle for JSON + a schema file...

[#uspol #itpol] Trump now asking for Cuban doctors that are working in Italy to be removed from their positions: the orange baby needs to STFU. These people are working in the interest of public health, unlike his goons […]

Trying to find online articles about hardware/tools/materials quality is now impossible: it's all slop. The only semi-searchable sources (for now) are review videos

So, Laravel Shift started spamming unrelated repositories with slop? https://github.com/ddeboer/imap/pull/602

To anyone using "agents" for coding, remember that "agents" imply "agency", which is serious business. I wouldn't trust my computer to peel a potato on its own, nowadays.

Chasing GitHub Actions ever-changing security boundaries is quite an effort: https://github.com/laminas/automatic-releases/issues/283

Isn't GitHub's scrolling behavior lovely?

I freaking hate keyboard shortcuts: almost had a project completely fail because a mail was erroneously marked as "muted" in GMail, probably due to typing outside a text box, by accident.

what's up with all the Kirigiri references? 🤔

Sounds like #homeassistant OS 17.1 completely broke networking for me. Didn't investigate further, but rolling back to HAOS 17.0 sufficed, for now.

New #fzero looks alright: https://youtu.be/scnYJ0afMxM

So... how do I block all fediverse accounts that post obnoxiously long posts (10k+ chars)?

Not to brag, but if anthropic had paid me $20,000 and given me a month I'd also have been able to write them a very shitty C compiler.

RE: https://swecyb.com/@anderseknert/116056950299738296 No single post in this thread will prepare you for the next post in this thread. I'm beginning to think that tools like OpenClaw are professional malpractice and should be outright banned from civil society.

Testing AWS RDS snapshot restores from S3, and it's really not fun. Glad I'm doing this stuff now, and not during a disaster scenario.

signs that I now do OPS: `VpcLimitExceeded: The maximum number of VPCs has been reached.`

github is dedicated to promoting codeberg by no longer being the higher-uptime option. i respect that

I now need English subtitles for Italian movies 😬

Nature is healing... #bitcoin

so... what's with the flood of ZenDesk emails coming from hundreds of installations? Somebody trying to make ZenDesk marked as spam?

Many devs use Laminas and Mezzio, but unfortunately few contribute behind the scenes. We have stepped up, so you should too! #php #Mezzio https://getlaminas.org/blog/2026-01-14-call-for-contributors.html

Somehow randomly found this via @Grummfy on the @roave discord. GMail is disabling POP mail import sometime this year: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/16604719?hl=en They certainly want me to accelerate moving off Google services :-\

Awww, puppy brought me a phone charger!

So, I'm at the point where I run 1h almost daily. What's a sensible way to step this up, without making the training longer or causing unnecessary strain? I can't throw more time at it, and adding too much incline can damage knees and whatnot...

RE: https://mas.to/@TechConnectify/115985224639778868 This video should be watched, from start to end. Even if you already are a solarpunk junkie like me, you will learn a ton on how to argue for it. And yes, a strong wakeup call for a big part of the world at the end too.

Is there any software-related user group in #perugia or #umbria at large? 🤔

I got bitten by a spider. On the back of my leg. While running. On my treadmill. WTF?! HOW?!

RE: https://masto.ai/@phoronix/115975831236483721 "spit" sounds like an appropriate term here 😵‍💫

Sigh @ OSS projects with cheap generated AI "art" :-\ I paid someone (my brother, in the following examples) to do images for my stuff, FWIW, and it is satisfying in both from a personal perspective, as well as in final results. It's not much, but please, not the crappy AI slop. Examples: * […]

My recipe for a successful multi-platform #docker -compatible image build (example): ```sh STORAGE_DRIVER=vfs \ BUILDAH_FORMAT=docker \ buildah build \ --manifest your.registry/name:your-tag \ --layers \ --cache-from your.registry/your-cache \ --cache-to your.registry/your-cache \ […]

Reviewing is really hell, when everything is a slopified wall of text.
