All I want to do is ship my silly little RISC-V powered appliances with immutable Linux running federated applications on them, is that too much to ask for

x86 is so incredibly confusing to someone who grew up learning RISC-V first like myself

Absolutely loving the (new?) #Flathub validation of whether or not screenshots in metainfo actually resolve to anything. Almost accidentally published version that had broken screenshots just now!

cloudflare's on-duty IT staff bangs on the doors which I have padlocked from the inside as I calmly break open lava lamp after lava lamp and drink the contents

2025 and Bluesky still doesn't have IPv6. Besides Vercel, that makes it the biggest offender IMHO

Vibe businessing. It's all about the vibes. Enron vibes, Bernie Madoff vibes, FTX vibes ...

I shall take this GitHub outage as yet another nudge for myself to move my repos to Codeberg ...

The new #GitLab design is suspiciously similar to #Patternfly 's default page layout 👀

Oh wow, the new GitLab design looks soooo much better

I'm genuinely considering buying a Fairphone just because they have been so excellent with mainlining their phone changes

The conference flu finally got to me smh

#Multiplex now has i18n support 👀 English and German is already enabled, French is soon to come!

I love licensing my personal things as (A)GPL because the people that complain about that choice make for a great blocklist

Canadian re-entry kiosks take a picture of you when you get in, and every single time, without fail, I look like the sleepiest person on the planet

I want to buy the GabeCube so badly

Do any of my followers here speak Mandarin? I had classes for ~1h until COVID hit and I'm signing up again starting early next year, and I'm wondering what apps and tools and IMEs people use these daya

The Steam Frame uses FEX? Gosh I just love Valve

The best way to relax after a long day at a conference.

TIL someone wrote a TrackMania integration for Nextcloud. Because of course that exists!

Anyone at #KubeCon in Atlanta this year? 👀

Is it just me or has HN's view on LLMs been shifting quite a bit lately

Aaaaand my flight to Atlanta got cancelled. No more flights out of EWR today

The new Bazaar search is so incredibly nice

Why does the LF keep on scheduling KubeCon NA to like the most deeply red states in the US

Gosh I love Tsingtao it's like the best non-German beer out there

NY/NJ is really growing on me

Recently I've been running into more vibecoded systems tools (package managers, TUIs etc.) and holy shit is this stuff terrible

OpenCloud is so nice

RE: https://mastodon.social/@joeycastillo/115493503836080482 Gosh I can't wait to get my hands on an Open Book

An eBPF Loophole: Using XDP for Egress Traffic XDP is Linux's fastest packet processor but only handles incoming traffic. We found a loophole in how the kernel determines packet direction to make it work for outgoing traffic too! Blog post with details 👇 loopholelabs.io/blog/xdp-for...

#YVR ✈️ #EWR Already miss you, Vancouver!

6 months until the SpacemiT K3 chip and thus probably the first RV23-compliant chip arrives. I'm so damn excited for this

RV23 phone wen

I'm getting the feeling that one of my 2026 resolutions should be to finally try and actually contribute to C-based projects aside from the kernel more. Maybe that will finally give me a similar level of confidence in that language to Go/Rust.

https://www.phoronix.com/news/Flatpak-1.17 Flatpak now supports OCI registries! Hell yeah. Now the only thing missing is systemd-sysupdate support for fetching updates from there, and then every single piece of software I run is vendored through the same registry format.

Oakridge-41st has some of the most beautiful buildings in North America right next to the world's shittiest condo building. It already looks 20 years out of date right after construction with those weird boxy floors

Permanent winter/standard time is the only right answer in the time debate from a northern perspective

New opinion that's growing on me: If software freedom on iOS and Android is essentially dead, then maybe it's ok if you make the iOS and Android apps proprietary as long as you vendor a proper, libre Linux app as the thing to push people towards

The Outer Worlds is such a fun game. Haven't had this much fun since playing Stray!

Municipalism is one of those late 2000s/early 2010s movements I'd love to see become popular again

The Joyce-Collingwood towers look so damn cool with SkyTrain running through them

The elevated SkyTrain link from Langley to Surrey is going to be so damn cool. Already looks like it's from 2035 (Via https://www.flickr.com/photos/tranbc/54892959209/in/album-72177720298782138/ )

There are two good libre licenses out there that are fit for the modern world, the AGPL and the EUPL

My nostalgia for the early 2010s is hitting an all-time high today

Slayyyter literally can not make a bad song

I wonder what's going to happen with all of those GPUs when the bubble pops.
