No, you don't get to ask a question and tell me to shut up in the same statement. Learn some fucking manners while you're in timeout.

"Poetry Event" by disaster2life in Elsewhere https://debconf26.debconf.org/talks/126-poetry-event/
"Is this repo manually coded? If it's manually coded you're being left behind."
Ma'am, that is a twenty five thousand LoC slab of C++ code. It targets a console designed twenty two years ago and discontinued twelve years ago. It is an amalgamation of the work of several developers, forked, patched, reformatted, strained, and ultimately inexorably joined in an unholy Make ruleset. Market economics had no hand in the creation of this abhorrence. The fact that this project exists proves that God is either impotent to alter His universe or ignorant to the horrors taking place in his kingdom. This prism of code is more than a story point. It is a physical declaration of mankind's contempt for entropy. It is hubris manifest.
We also have an SDL3 port if you would prefer that.
Yesterday at #debconf26 we showed the Debian swirl with the hotel 🏨 rooms. Just a bit of jpeg jitter. 😉
#Debconf26, you were amazing. On so many different layers and areas, amazing at all of them. For me it's now time to say goodbye (the next conference is calling), but I will keep the place, the people, the laughs and everything here in fond memory. Much much love!
openSUSE Seeking Additional Corporate Sponsors
While openSUSE is closely aligned with SUSE as a company, they aren't the exclusive sponsor of this free and open-source Linux distribution with its rolling-release Tumbleweed and Leap stable releases. AMD has been a longtime major supporter of openSUSE and the Fastly content delivery company has been another platinum sponsor too besides SUSE. There are also various other lower-tier sponsors while today the openSUSE Projec…

Hey, everybody? I get that it's frustrating when Codeberg is down. But please remember that it's a community project, and that the expectation of "everything is up 100% of the time" was created by exactly those tech companies that were killing off communities for the past 20 years. 100% uptime was never true before Facebook/Google/etc. came around, not even close.
And it's even more difficult to keep things up nowadays; there is *so much more* malicious traffic coming from the internet now than back then, especially since the rise of LLM scrapers.
So if you want Codeberg to be down less often, might I suggest reaching out to them about volunteering instead? Not right now, because they're probably pretty busy getting things back up, but once things have been stabilized a bit. Then you yourself can help improve the uptime!

It's International Non-Binary People's Day!
Celebrated here, on my Pentium with VGAPride.
I made an app that lets you browse the internet on old phones without 2G/3G. BlueWAP is an app for #Nokia #SonyEricsson and other supported #J2ME devices that lets your phone browse WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) and basic HTML sites by connecting to a modern 4G/5G phone over Bluetooth.
