Debian turned 32 today! 🎉

💡 The Debian project was officially founded on August 16, 1993, by Ian Murdock. This day is also known as Debian Day.

Happy Birthday, Debian, August 16, 1993. There are two numerical balloons over the Debian logo on the left that say 32. Below, there are many balloons and confetti.

London’s Metropolitan Police say at least 60 people will face prosecution for showing support for Palestine Action, the activist group outlawed as a terrorist organisation last month for protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Three others have already been charged.

“We have put arrangements in place that will enable us to investigate and prosecute significant numbers each week if necessary,” the force said in a statement on Friday.

Debian 13 is finally the release where I can use Wayland for my day to day work. Haven't had any freezes or glitches yet, all my software works. Perhaps there's still issues that I'll hit, but it's probably at the point where the amount of papercuts and small issues are about the same on GNOME on Xorg and on Wayland, so this is probably the point of no turning back, at least for me.

Somehow landed on the NetBSD manpage of sleep(1) and they seem to have a rather unique take on what is considered a bug.

Bugs: This sleep command cannot handle requests for durations much longer than about 250 billion years. Any such attempt will result in an error, and immediate termination. It is suggested that when there is a need for sleeps exceeding this period, the sleep command be executed in a loop, with each individual sleep invocation limited to 200 billion years approximately.

@confluency @timixretroplays I was in France earlier this month and initially I was a bit surprised to see how runny their crêpes liquid were... and yet... the crêpes came out perfectly fine!

@jwildeboer Indeed, that part I 100% agree with!

@jwildeboer Sounds like a bit of a cop out to be honest. Most of the most vulnerable people in the world have literally no one to help them and need a voice.
