The classic XKCD dependency stack cartoon, but relabeled. The image shows a huge pile of boxes representing "all modern digital infrastructure" precariously balanced atop each other. A label at the right (ha!) says "A project led by a guy who then turns out to be a fascist" and arrows point to a small box sitting on top of many others. Another label at the right says "Where corporate money goes", with three arrows pointing at the small project led by a guy who then turns out to be a fascist

Whoa. @libreoffice unleashes “no AI as a feature” and breaks download records.

“In one week, the installer was downloaded more than 1 million times — not counting updates via Linux distribution repositories.”

Great work, LibreOffice team! 👏🏻

Had to have a conversation about my mother using ChatGPT/LLMs, telling her about all the environmental and legal concerns,

My mother: "Why were they authorised to release it"

I wonder that too mom, I wonder that too :(

@theakashmondal @contrapunctus
`And every time, a citizen of our nation uses and prefers a map that displays those mistakes, a citizen that smears it off and moves on, is one less citizen that we'll have[...]` I read that inherintly as you claiming if one does not accept the Indian claim then they become not a citizen.

I dont plan on replying any further to you, good day.

@theakashmondal @contrapunctus @libreinator
No I do not care to elaborate, please assume.
I for one, and statistically most of us do not live in any of these border regions, mine, and most people's interactions with those parts of the maps are minimal when actually "navigating" ever.
My existence is ruled illegal* by the Indian state in my religion, identity, and my politics, I do not care for what the Indian Parliament thinks.

@libreinator @contrapunctus @tusharhero in their own message, they claim anyone who fails to recognise the complete Indian claim is not a Citizen, I guess I need to burn my passport, and forget that this "democratic" country values free thoughts and the ideas of international brotherhood, If I cant stand with Indian Army committed war crimes, then I am less an Indian of course.

Free Jammu and Kashmir from **all oppressors**!

@libreinator @contrapunctus @tusharhero sounds like it, *is* it.

@theakashmondal @contrapunctus "find some middle ground", I hate this issue is still somethinf that riles up nationalists, Both the RoI and IRoP claim ABSOLUTE control of the region, (Minus Pakistan's acknowledgement of Chinese Claims), Line of Actual Control **is** the middle ground between displaying a fully controlled J&K by India, or by Pakistan.

I hope you do not forget, especially here, appeasing to one side (India) leaves out the other (Pakistan).

@badrihippo /me wonders if the snac webclient works on rhe inbuilt web browser ;p

Black and white line cartoon by @davewalker.bsky.social, titled "Possible causes of your problems". Under the "yes" side are funding removed from local communities; growing gap between rich and poor; multinational companies not paying their taxes; lack of affordable housing; government not sufficiently investing in schools and healthcare. Under the "no" side is "people fleeing horrific situations that you and I can't imagine".

Run by volunteers of @cavallette, perfectly legal, and decidedly antifascist, feminist, queer.

Destroyed and shut down by Trump's administration, extra legally.

It is astonishingly quiet.

recrimped, second one was certainly better than the first one, but for the short distance I was deploying this, ~2 meters, it can somehow do GIGABIT over this trash??? no more issues with no carrier being detected, and now the family is happy that the internet is better, already figured out what I need to crimp next thankfully. Physical networking is a fun dopamine hit in between all the shit happening.

so apparently the CAT5E precrimped cable I bought like 5 years ago for cheap ... turns out to be cheap shit! Finally bought crimping equipment, got ready to repurpose it for something else, cut it open, its UTP cable for "UnTwisted Pair" that isnt even colour coded correctly, and pretty sure its very much NOT copper of course, great fun of what to do now. No wonder I could not get my intel ethernet adapter to work over this crap
Stripped end of one of the cable, 8 cables with non standard coloured jackets spill out with some exposing a decidedly non copper looking core! my cheap ethernet crimper in the background too :)

@Kuniti_shino ah fair!

@Kuniti_shino isnt heated glass supposed to be the best? (i barely know 3d printing stuff)

@arcticons Yup, I think existing tooling is what keeps most people on github, but any step forward is alwats great!

@arcticons wooooo!! Hope delta joins soon :)

if anyone has protobuf experience with golang, I would love to hear from you because I feel like im currently alone drowning in this agony, would be nice to be rescyed / drowm with someone! :)

[that smiley face hides the deep resentment I have come to harbor for protobufs since i started this project]
