A meme titled "HDMI kids won't understand." It features portraits of Van Gogh, Beethoven, and Stevie Wonder paired with RCA cables. Van Gogh (missing an ear) is next to a yellow and red cable; Beethoven (deaf) is next to just a yellow cable; Stevie Wonder (blind) is next to red and white cables.

Wir sind der Sämann, die Saat und das Feld.
Wir sind die Schnitter der kommenden Mahd,
Wir sind die Zukunft und wir sind die Tat.

I wrote something (not directly about AI) on cryptogyny — sorry still depressing, BUT ☺️ I do end on actionable things and some fun examples along the way, such as

"Comparing [the 108 women scholars until 1800] with 58,995 [men], we find that they were on average better"‼️

@navi right. Well, once this change lands, I hope I can dedicate some time to write native init services for openRC for a minimal install (cron, ssh, boot stuff,...)

@navi my concern is mostly having a place for native init scripts they can live in while not conflicting with the sysvinit ones. In Debian a package must not ship the same file under the same path.

@navi currently sysvinit scripts in Debian are shipped in /etc/init.d so if /etc/rc has a higher priority then this is great since "pure" openRC scripts can be used over sysvinit ones.

@vriska goddamn are here I thought something celebration-worthy had happened

@mirabilos @navi @ska I wouldn't think so. A major issue would be getting those scripts upstreamed and then shipped in Debian

@navi @ska @mirabilos great :) I honestly believe openRC + seatd is the future. udev is ok, but the rest of the systemd operating system can die for all I care.

@navi @ska @mirabilos well, some maintainers even dropped them without any comment, thus breaking things. Will openRC then prefer the ones in /etc/rc? Then I can start rewriting all of them.

@mirabilos @navi @ska

Unfortunately most heavily favour systemd, and even a (hidden) option in the installer is likely not happening.

@mirabilos @navi @ska /2
might need to talk to a fellow DD about it.

I also want to create a minimal installation script with mmdebstrap, so I don't need to manually purge systemd and reinstall openRC.

@mirabilos @ska @navi 1/ running it as daily driver. The main problem is that you're kinda forced to run elogind, and that user services should be tested / integrated more. I do not have any energy to get user services e.g. for pipewire upstreamed. There's also the issue that some packages ship sysvinit scripts, and you have to use those over the a shorter, concise openRC one. I think diversions could fix that,

Went to a demo in light of the communal elections here earlier today, and it felt really good to scream away the anxiety, even if it was really cold. #Alerta #Alerta

A four-quadrant diagram titled "Battery falling down a hole". The first three quadrants show AA, AAA, and AAAA batteries progressively getting smaller as they fall into a dark circular hole. The final quadrant shows a tiny battery falling into the hole with the label "AAAAAAA", mimicking the sound of a scream.

Finally cleaned my bathroom, cross that off of the list

just doing normal electronics over here

a mostly-normal-looking 48-pin QFP footprint, but pins 1 and 2 are bridged, with a note reading:
Assembly side detection:
PC13 (pin 2) is pulled high on F.Cu, but not on B.Cu.
This can't be represented in the schematic because I have made a series of clever decisions, and am now dealing with the consequences of my own actions. the same footprint, but with the layer visibility flipped, to show that the entire set of 48 pads is mirrored on the other side of the board, which is almost entirely symmetric and can be assembled either way three footprints in the footprint library for this project:
it's probably fine
