you know the nintendo exi bus? used in gamecube and wii? today i learned that stock #glasgowinterfaceexplorer makes a pretty good sniffer for it e.g. you can make this script... import sys import struct while item := sys.stdin.readline(): req, rsp = map(bytes.fromhex […]

i have a sort of a midas' touch situation where if i ever try to do something for fun it becomes my job and vice versa

nobody: hardware engineers: `assign read_data = ~resetb || clear ? 0 : afr ? AisLR ? AisDR : AisDL : read_data_mem;`

Ha. You can now buy USB C-to-C dongles that add the 5.1K resistors on the CC lines that the manufacturers of whatever cheap noncompliant legacy device were too ignorant/lazy/stupid/greedy to include. Amazing.

(sleepily) ... concept... what if escalators... but working like zippers...

today is the first time i encountered recursive submodules in the wild (i'm looking at a repository that includes itself as a submodule 13 times)

A visual novel plotline sprung to life: - Kids at a high school in Rome had been telling each other for decades that there were secret rooms under the school. Teachers laughed it off as playground rumors - During a protest sit-in, the kids took the opportunity to go where they’re not supposed […]

acquired: an extremely broad restraining order preventing my stalker from trying to contact me directly or indirectly (she's been found not guilty of criminal charges, but i'm fine with that: there is no justice in putting her in prison when all i want is just for her disappear from my life)

lmao what https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-driver-docs

every game can be classified in one of the two categories: first-person shooter or email rimworld is email balatro is a first person shooter despite how it looks, hitman 2 is email

my version of birding is watching out for commit hashes like this low popcnt! exciting!!

💭 for me it is less "income tax" and more "earn-in of the UK citizenship / ongoing subscription to functioning public services"

Sigh. OK. rsync discourse: This is not a story about “vibe coding” or “slop” or regressions or even open source sustainability or whatever: it’s a story about mental health. The timeline of Tridge’s response in particular can be broke down like so: 1. AI skeptics say "LLMs create […]

Like this is a luminary in the field, mocking his critics for making a prediction he finds risible when that prediction HAS ALREADY COME TRUE. He did the thing, and it went badly, in the way that everyone who is mad at him was saying all along that it would go badly. But he still thinks that […]

making very good progress on https://felinebuildservices.org behind the scenes, i think the service will be doing even better than i initially expected

achievement unlocked: had to explain to a jury what IRC is

💭 a PI /24 would be a fantastic birthday gift, albeit on an expensive side

exploring announcing IPv6 PI space for Grebedoc (2001:67c:a8c::/48) in addition to existing Rage4-based anycast, for additional resiliency

just found out that torprojectstatus.org is now hosted on Grebedoc, neat! https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/policy/109-status-page-hosting

pull request previews are available on Codeberg+Grebedoc! set up yours with https://codeberg.org/git-pages/action#with-a-wildcard-domain-matching-pull-request

existence of nix flake implies the existence of nix yayo and nix go-juice

added operating expenses of grebedoc by request i think you could call this "lean" :3

this pride month, may i interest you in: gay albatrosses https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/hawaiis-lesbian-albatrosses

you should probably not complain about "leftist infighting" if you're causing the infighting. kind of a bad look

hm. accidentally set some kitchen implements on ... well it's more smoldering than open fire... and filled the place with acrid white smoke. i'm sure it's not stress related at all

telling me that i should shut up because i don't contribute to open source enough is definitely a take

how success looks like for me: https://fosstodon.org/@diondokter/116685755690940757

I've finally finished my implementation of SSH for unikernels in #OCaml. For this example, I've used @reynir project to implement a #unikernel that offers a chat service (like IRC) via SSH. So now we have an engine for providing a TUI within a unikernel that […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

added an IRC channel for https://felinebuildservices.org/ (see the website)

do I know anybody who understands how to use gradle?

@whitequark I really preferred the way we did such rituals before computers. Dancing around a big fire once a year to appease the gods just hits different compared to the annual copy-pasting of access tokens to appeas some random CISO.

this is your latest issue of Scraper Daily

why the hell does npm not have a "regenerate access token" button

virgin media's representative called me on the phone to offer a "better" (still worse than my new choice) offer so i flashbanged him with "you know, i'm used to 1000 down 300 up for about £10-£15 a month. also the Fibre vs Full Fibre distinction is deceptive and misleading advertising that I […]

hard image thanks 2010-me for saving this

phrasing

finally moving from Virgin Media (charging me like 70 GBP for 1.2G down) to Chad Medi-- I mean Openreach and EE (charging me like one third of that)

do I know a Go expert who would be willing to review ~10kloc of OSS code? this would be a paid engagement, although since it's not for a business application and I'm paying out of pocket I can't promise high rates

anybody knows of a static analyzer in Go that warns if you call `defer` in a loop? I keep using it as a RAII-like mechanism, whereas in reality it's something much more primitive

#glasgowinterfaceexplorer revD0 prototypes are being assembled by JLC!

happy mailing list memberships reminder day!
