one thing that i really dislike about Unix is the zealous adherence to semi-accidental design elements that ends up interfering with the utility of the underlying useful principle for example: * early Unix could not run too complex a program due to hardware restrictions, so programs were […]

[minor spoilers, lesbian space princess, transphobia ment, enbyphobia ment, transmasc erasure] RE: https://neopaquita.es/@aenea/115963770678621154 I have to agree with this. Been there yesterday with my handball team, and we all ... weren't exactly nonplussed. Some good gags, but most jokes […]

[adhd meds, waking up, experiment] Today was the first day of my experiment to help me get up in the morning. Generally, this is really tough for me. But taking meds in the morning, even before breakfast (Concerta/Kinecteen, OROS-style meds) helps here. But I struggled with two things: 1. The […]

[sexuality, ace, labels, musings] Realizing that I'm definitely more ace than I thought. In retrospective, I never craved sex, really. I perhaps craved the intimacy to a person that was implied by having sex on the table (but can also be created differently). Or I was (and still am) excited […]

Remember kids, don’t write a library in #rust for fun, it might end up in production. /s Jokes aside, I am very excited that after Cosmic and Niri, #xfce4 is likely going to be the third big project utilizing #smithay! This is great for various reasons, but hopefully means more contributions […]

GdP Sachsen nutzt KI generierte Bilder für eigene Narrative (Bild via @boschpolforsch.bsky.social). Es ist das erste Mal, dass ich solche Bilder von seriösen Stellen sehe, die Ereignisse so darstellen, dass sie besser ins eigene Bild passen. Das ist nicht gut, der DGB darf hier nicht schweigen!

In the early days of personal computing CPU bugs were so rare as to be newsworthy. The infamous Pentium FDIV bug is remembered by many, and even earlier CPUs had their own issues (the 6502 comes to mind). Nowadays they've become so common that I encounter them routinely while triaging crash […]

»If you are passionate about toast, you will not work at a company that does not build toasters, that only does marketing.

"Die brütende Ratlosigkeit der politischen Klasse, die flüchtige Hoffnung, dass es schon nicht so schlimm kommen wird und der lähmende Attentismus, mag an die Endzeit der DDR erinnern. Die SED-Führung befand sich nach 1985 in einem Dilemma. Einerseits ahnte sie, dass Michail Gorbatschow eine […]

I think I'm growing tired of tech. It's mostly standstill or going in circles... or actively getting worse. There are some projects that are kinda going the right direction (GrapheneOS, FEX, Asahi Linux, ...) but only on an almost microscopic level. They depend on the big vendors providing […]
