As a child I got radicalized against DRM by the Robots movie, we need more of those

Absolutely insane that the EU digital wallet literally doesn't support any desktop system

How is bullion still rallying

very excited to share this update about bringing AT to the IETF! last week we uploaded two drafts to the IETF datatracker and today we heard that we’re approved to host a Birds of a Feather at IETF 124 (the formal meeting towards establishing a working group)

Ran into this poster on our campus today 😊

It seems more and more like the AI bubble is similar to the chaebol, inflating each other's valuations by just moving money around. Add the proposed reporting deregulations and in a few months you might get a 1990s style crash

I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

ah shit, I had swapped lambda and coreweave around to make the diagram more sane and forgot to move the super micro funding arrow from coreweave to lambda. fixed

#GNOME friends: What's the right way to play `/usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/alarm-clock-elapsed.oga` in a Flatpak these days? Do I just embed it like in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-clocks/-/blob/master/data/gnome-clocks.gresource.xml#L26 ?

Nothing like starting your day with a nice long urban walk

I'm getting back to reading traditional tech media (magazines and stuff) and damn this is refreshing

Perfecto has the best pastries in Vancouver and it's not even close

Gender markers weren't on passports until 1977 and explicitly started happening in response to gender non-conforming fashion and identities

https://www.phoronix.com/news/Mesa-Contributor-Guidelines This sounds like a great solution tbh. Responsibility is cool.

The urge to buy a gravel bike has never been stronger

Wow, Servo has really improved a lot in recent months. First time my website is actually usable, if not styled quite right yet 👀

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/115224321548138026 Finally!

Mnemonic in GTK apps really are that missing link between a TUI and GUI. I kind of want to build something like k9s based on this now - like, I knew they existed before, but after seeing just how well implemented they are in Constrict I just kind of want to use them everywhere else now

Draghi is wrong about so much stuff

GNOME 49 has been officially released! Head over to the release notes to discover all the new features and enhancements: release.gnome.org/49 Many thanks to our community for your work over the past 6 months. You're amazing! #GNOME #OpenSource #FLOSS #FOSS #Linux

The Liquid Glass design is really growing on me. Used a Mastodon client on it today (Ice Cubes) and it's really nice to see the animations in action, it feels super fluid. Same with Firefox, which has already adopted it too.

Just a draft, but a very exciting draft to have www.ietf.org/archive/id/d...

Live snubbing cam:

As much as American media would like to pretend otherwise, the biggest and most consequential news story of the week is Trump voluntarily blowing up our relationship with our most pivotal ally in East Asia

Im 21ten Jahrhundert braucht es keine Atlantikbrücke, sondern einen neuen Atlantikwall bis zur 49sten Parallele

I think it's a sign of how cowed the American media is that we're getting pieces like "you have to understand, in Korean culture, it's considered very rude for someone to lock you in a brutal prison camp for a week for no reason." Like yeah, any free people would be offended by that?

Reuters: Denmark to spend $9.1 Billion on air defense systems, and none of it will go to US arms manufacturers. Because no one trusts America any more.

Elon Musk hat auf einer Großdemonstration zu Gewalt aufgerufen. Doch die Bundesregierung und viele Medien sind weiterhin auf seiner Plattform X. Was muss eigentlich noch passieren, bis sie diesem gewaltbereiten Rechtsradikalen den Rücken kehren? Ein Kommentar. netzpolitik.org/2025/komment...

Absolutely obsessed with listening to Sofia Stel this past week

Deutsche Bahn as a brand is so universally hated after three decades of mismanagement it really makes me think that the best way forward might be to completely trash the name and branding and start clean

This might be the most unhinged YouTube music rewind I've ever gotten

SEPTA Sino-American Friendship Station (formerly Spring Garden Station) circa 2035. New underground high speed metro line platforms were constructed and served by 160kph metro trains reaching Glassboro, Grenloch, King of Prussia, West Chester and Wilmington in 30 mins, departing every 3 mins each.

Solutions to the Berlin housing crisis, by party: Greens: get people to move to auto-oriented small towns CDU: less tech, more heavy industry in Bavaria FDP: reduce quality of life through cars SPD: in theory YIMBY, in practice doing nothing Die Linke: Russian occupation AfD: gas minorities

For some reason my laptop has switched to using the Nvidia card with Nouveau instead of the AMD GPU and honestly it works ... just fine now? Very impressive

Auf den Schultern von Giganten, vielleicht landen wir nie

Ok turns out I actually like Meson now

Metrotown in Burnaby is def. the most futuristic place in NA and it's not even close

Next hurdle on the "writing GTK libraries in Go" cleared: Devhelp2 files are now properly being created (meaning that LSPs and Manuals can pick them up), Blueprint is supported,

Love the new Adwaita shortcuts dialog. More zero-config things like this (& the automatic CSS loading) please!

Is there a better way to draw to a canvas than Cairo in GTK? The GIR files for Cairo are from my understanding hand-written and lack a bunch of functions/isn't meant to be used as the base for an extensive Cairo binding.

Genuinely impressed by how well LLMs do with any AST traversal related

My soul for a g-ir-scanner that works on CGo-generated headers

Charm's `Crush` project might have had the fastest MIT → Introduces CLA → Rugpulls everyone I've seen so far

Decentralized in a way that matters is the new decentralized

@bsky.app And this is why real decentralization matters. There is nobody that can decide for the fediverse to block Mississippi.
