@mhoye nope. Phew :)

@mhoye i have absolutely no idea how often my reader pulls your feed. Perhaps I’d better take a look…

Debian to the moon! 🚀

"Multi-Agent Autonomy for Space Exploration on the CADRE Lunar Technology Demonstration"

@pwaring oh that’s bad. I agree it’s likely got worse :( your MPhil sounds interesting. Is it public?

What’s the half life of blogs these days? Found a promising link on Reddit that’s only 8 months old, blog gone

Possibly the worst take I've seen in Open Source, at least this Month

There’s a beautiful review/eulogy by Val Nolan of Christopher Priest’s “airside” in this issue https://mastodon.online/@InterzoneMag/112372448018618408

@fraggle I hear it’s huge in the US too? (as is Bluey, which is huge over here)

@fraggle no wait that’s daddy pig

@fraggle also (if I’m not mistaken) the overworld narrator in Dungeon Keeper

@psn wow! What’s your next adventure going to be?

An old, prescient comment re NixOS community. It’s got me thinking about how well it might apply to Debian communities (especially disconnected ones like Debian-user mailing list) https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/98#issuecomment-894473214

New blog post: Biosphere https://jmtd.net/log/biosphere/ #music

@venthur @dondelelcaro this got me thinking on the nature of "long term" or "short term" in FOSS/volunteer projects. If nobody steps up to do the WSDL work, is that still "short term"?

This morning's soundtrack: the mighty Biosphere https://biosphere.bandcamp.com/music

@venthur @dondelelcaro it would seem that adding a REST API to debbugs would be a better use of time. With lots of debbugs consumer experience, you could do a lot of the design work, even without Perl experience to implement it

@werdahias interesting, thanks

Puzzled why this is in heavy rotation at the moment. Was it in a TV show? https://pleroma.debian.social/notice/Agwj6cuUZBACNOMkQC
