@fraggle some of their colour palettes/graphic design choices were inspired. The pdp-11 switches… there’s a lot of fondness for the PDP equipment that used to be deployed at Newcastle.

@ttyS1 I’m replacing a gogs instance. The gogs binary was 32M. Gitea is 132M. It failed to mirror one of the gogs repos (first I tried); no clear reason why. A day or so later left to it’s own devices and it’s got into a crash loop

@fraggle cool! Did it leave any kind of legacy on the town?

Nevermind Digital UNIX. Where’s my Analog UNIX?

@mjg59 @dj @FetidTrash … Matt how is your timeline this bad idk

So far I’m disappointed with Gitea 😢

@patrickmcurry Slade, for doom WAD files. Quake’s WAD files aren’t the same. I don’t know if Slade handles quake’s, sorry

Has fosstodon dropped their requirement to toot in English?

@neil @Tattooed_Mummy I’ve only seen the payment stuff if I’ve done a domain search; I haven’t had a breach alert for a while now (May it seems)

@neil @Tattooed_Mummy I was doing it before HIBP, and they originally didn’t limit domain reports this way, it came in relatively recently: so I was caught by surprise. Can’t really do anything about it now

@neil @Tattooed_Mummy I do this, but haveibeenpwned’s pricing strategy thwarts it: each unique address is a “user” from their POV, so I can’t get a free report anymore, and pricing for “600 users” is not affordable for what is really one user

Is anyone aware of any aggregated stats on when most school holidays across the UK occur?

I think I’ll switch to the container. It’s basically the same size anyway, and I’m already managing containers.

These days, Stack Overflow is only slightly better than Fandom (urgh) for egregious pop ups

@maralorn @mart_w were any of your self-written front ends published?

I started installing gitea, opted to apply all the systemd restrictions you can to it then got bored punching the necessary holes for it to actually function

@rivets total agreement there

My old gogs binary is 32M. Gitea is 132M!

@ilmari it's one of the race-names in No Man's Sky. Another is gek, and gek.space is available… for £123.29/year 😲

LLM that predicts frames for the game Doom: you can “play” it

If the LLM started hallucinating it would potentially be really interesting: the rules of engagement you understand as a player breaking down

Could blend well with Doom’s nightmare aesthetic
