@gamingonlinux I tried the beta. I think they made the right choice to delay it.

Working on partitioning tools on my main desktop. What could possibly go wrong?

How can it be 2026 and there's *still* no Signal client in Debian. (BTW Happy new year!)

It's a good day to have air conditioning that runs from solar power!

I just created a new account on a website. I don't know how long it's been since I last did this, but it feels like years.

@mbbrutman I had one blow on my XT motherboard a few weeks back. Fortunately it just works fine without it.

@brouhaha @Lydie I'm kind of amazed how long some older SSDs retain their memory. I have some early SSDs that haven't been turned on in 10-20 years and they still have all their data. And from my understanding after 10 years of not having them powered up, you shouldn't be surprised if they are dead.

@hetzner Which will also be available to existing clients, right? Right?

@gamingonlinux gnome-web is kind of cool though

@olasd @luj 100% DNS will be blamed despite the facts

@juliank I'm up for a rewatch too after a discussion with a friend last weekend on whether Breaking Bad or Sons of Anarchy was better.

I don't understand why, but at my old age there's still a small child in me that wants to throw a tantrum because I can't get a Steam Machine *right now*. Which is especially odd since it's just another Linux machine, which I already have more than a 100 of and some I haven't had a chance to properly play with or set up for its intended purpose.

@KimPerales Somehow it feels like a good time to experiment with shorting stocks

@polygonalhorse So as always, fuck Instagram!

@purpleidea Québec is really insane like this. I've literally had tellers at the bank tell me in fluent English that sorry they can't help me in English.

@withaveeay It's a paradox. As a tech person, I don't use and refuse to use WhatsApp, but in poorer communities who get it zero rated (for actual completely selfish reasons by the companies) it is actually making a significant positive difference. But also, as they get locked in that eco-system, it eventually cuts them off from the people who are privileged enough not to be there. We really need something proper that's free and open and zero-rated.

@debby Usually more rights for others means more rights for everyone as a total!
