Internet weirdo, F/OSS enjoyer, Debian Culter, pursuing a degree by day, spending my nights sleepless :p; feel free to reach out, and have a great day!

We had an introduction to for newbies at today.

Three people from host country Argentina turned up.

I showed them a demo of debian packaging.

The general flow of packaging is,

1. Get source code
2. Generate packaging files
3. Build the .deb file
4. Make it lintian clean

We need distros to do the packaging because the original developers can't package for all distros.

In and you only need to upload to a single store in most cases.

bombardier: "our new train will be called 'talent' because it's very talented at transporting passengers!"
siemens: "very nice, we are naming our new train 'desiro', it is a desirable addition to an operator's fleet.
alstom: "mmh, so we have decided to –"

stadler, crashing through the door and tumbling through the room: "well *our* new train is called 'flirt' because trains are fuggin sexy and you prudes are just afraid to say it... i wanna kiss one so badd,,"

*silence, bombardier shoots an awkward glance to alstom*

“PLEASE USE AI” — poem by Joanna Atkins-Potts

Source: hxxps://www.instagram.com/p/DZaR5o_iKNy/

PLEASE USE AI

Please use AI
when your mother dies.

Ask it what grief feels like.
Let it explain bereavement
in twelve clear bullet points.

Do not spend years
finding her
in the supermarket
by the tomatoes she always bought,
in the smell of rain on warm pavement,
discovering new ways
to miss her. Please use AI
the next time you fall in love.

Ask it how to know
whether someone is the one.

It will give you a faster answer
than watching a person become familiar,
learning how they take their tea,
which floorboards will wake them,
how their silence sounds
when something is wrong. And please use AI
for your wedding vows,
your eulogies,
your apologies.

Why struggle
for the right words
when a machine can give you
beautiful ones?

Words untouched by shaking hands.
Words that have never sat beside
a hospital bed.
Words that have never known
the terrible privilege
of having something to lose. Meanwhile

I will be over here
watching someone I love
fall asleep on the sofa,
the television talking to itself,
rain tapping the windows,
the dog twitching in her dreams,

wasting my life
on these small unremarkable moments
that become,
without asking permission,
the whole thing.

📻 DebConf26 en LT10

“Santa Fe, epicentro del software libre”: LT10 publicó una nota sobre DebConf26, la conferencia mundial de Debian que se está realizando en la FICH/UNL.

Una buena oportunidad para acercar Debian, el Software Libre y la importancia de la soberanía tecnológica a más personas de la comunidad santafesina y argentina.

i'm too much of a lesbian for capitalism, where is the fully automated gay space communism we were promised

I just caught that Libera.Chat uses the phrase "insufficient human involvement" and I love that specific phrasing for flagging LLM-generated pull requests.

@bremner you flatter me. There are many cases of this stuff, we won't finish it tonight.

Current activity @ DebConf

Go home upower, you're drunk.

Happy Non-binary people's day! Here's our enby Atha last year working on a set of non-standard fog lights on the bumper of a Nissan Leaf during what can best be described as a mild sandstorm in a parking lot in Nebraska.

A non-binary person (Atha) sitting with hir left arm extended into the front corner of a grey Nissan Leaf bumper and hir right hand holding a screwdriver, tightening a screw to hold the fog light in place. The front wheel of the Nissan is steered outwards to facilitate access. A box of tools and parts is in the foreground at right of image. A green case of drill and screwdriver bits is just behind it in centre of image. Atha is sat on the sandy and dusty parking lot with buildings visible in the distance at far left, Atha is dressed in a Harbor Freight peak hat, hinged green welding goggles, a dust mask, a long black "Criminal Damage" denim coat modified with Etsy gothic print denim at the cuffs and shoulders, a grey t-shirt, beige 3/4 length shorts and a pair of non-binary flag pattern thigh high socks from Sock Dreams.

@liebach @jpmens After twenty years on Linux, this image finally helped me:

An image showing tar commands in the top part: 

What I type:
tar czf data.tar.gz data
tar xzf data.tar.gz

What I say in my head:
(picture of an older man in Bavarian dress, holding a litre glass of beer and smiling)
"create ze file"
"extract ze file"

@billchenchina no DD soon- just applying so people stop asking me to! ;p
