@jon this is likely EMI interference. Have you tried plugging the monitor into a separate wall outlet? Likely a other device causes a short induced voltage peak that temporarily disables the monitor.

@olasd @val wait what sticker mule is fascist now?

"Some" @debian stickers will be available at

At this point I think "omarchy" should be classified as a slur, ugh, i'm so tired of hearing about it,

being all permissively licensed is one of the biggest disappointments about the rust ecosystem to me

I accidentally passed an integer instead of a pointer to a function. It compiled fine, no compiler warnings. It didn't even crash at runtime. It just didn't work.

Why?

Because the integer was a complex nested macro constant, including integer type casts, bit shifting, and masking, but in the end it resolved to...

zero.

Which is just a normal NULL pointer, not even UB, not even a compile warning.

Note that this expects several plugins, and isn't really documented. Also, I was too lazy to port my vimrc, so it's just sourced.

@navi @toast @lanodan @mia true. I feel there needs to be a some middle ground; personally, I dislike PPAs since they often contain low-quality packages. Debian packaging can get hard to right. That being said, there has been and is work to get some consistent workflows. I plan to hold a talk about that, too.

Bebe goph alert! A baby gopher tortoise was exploring the yard today! This is not a drill!

@mia @lanodan @navi @toast @whynothugo we do have debusine now; while at the moment it's still Debian developer-only it allows for a PPA-like distribution. I do hope it gains more traction and allows also non-contributors to publish their packages.

Started listening to a podcast on the Iraq War (Blowback), and I... just need a break now. This is truly fucked. Like I knew the US were evil, but this is a whole new level.

Deleted my post about the sexual harassment I'd received on Fedi, because it was driving more sexual harassment toward me.

Y'all want women on Fedi? Fight that shit. I can't do it for you.

@anarchiv got reminded about "Death in Venice" by that. Pretty fucked up book.

Hackspaces are the best, now my side projects side project has moved along quite well, almost finished with the implementation. Also found a bug in #KiCad 's footprint generator along the way.

@grillchen might not even be half bad for explaining code, but it can *never* know what a given part of a circuit does. And if it doesn't it will make shit up.

LOL, my job is safe. This is exactly why LLMs are so dangerous: The don't think, and don't know what they are suggesting. This can lead to extreme danger, as indicated by the short circuit here. #electronics
