We use words like "sucks" or "is bad" to describe things we get for free and that bothers the ever loving crap out of me, because you aren't shouting into a void. There's someone on the other end. Have some class.

Analoges Vibecoding: Code schreiben und nicht verstehen was er tut.

Choose wisely.

redefining mathematics properly and clearly so that 1(new system) = pi/3(oldsystem)

1ₙ=pi/3ₒ

pi = 3ₙ with no loss of accuracy.

All of life is now simpler.

I had a dream that Mozilla were bullied into including a toggle in Firefox that disables all the corpo bullshit (so no tracking, ads, AI, etc.) but they were really pissy about it so they called it "communism mode" and you had to click on a little Karl Marx to activate it

The dissolution of the UK is getting closer

The poll indicated that if a referendum were held tomorrow on a united Ireland in the EU, 59% in Ireland would vote in favour and 22% against, with 63% voting in favour in Northern Ireland and 29% against.

Also, shouting this one with the bold text:

Debian isn't just for servers. Debian rocks on a desktop.

"But Veronica, I need newer packages!"

Do you really? If I'm doing dev work and need something newer, I'm using containers. If I need desktop applications, there's usually Flatpak/AppImage/Nix/source. And backporting and pinning is an option if you want to get super nerdy with it.

I don't like when my desktop updates. It means I have to relearn stuff. If you feel the same way, consider Debian. On your desktop. Seriously.

Today is a great day to learn about Debian.

It's far from perfect, but by golly once you learn it it's pretty sweet. Highlights:

• Everything is transparent, sometimes painfully so
• Debian isn't a company
• You still have apt, so deb packages still probably work
• Flatpak makes desktop use easy
• Hate updates? Debian only releases a major new version every two years.
• Nobody is ever, ever, ever going to sell you "Debian Pro"

If Ubuntu's got you down today, I dare you: give Debian a try.

I couldn't stop thinking about this so I had to make it and share it

If you're running Debian, and haven't updated for the whole Copy Fail thing, now is a good time to check to see if you've got a kernel update and plan on getting that done.

New kernels in Trixie, Bookworm, and Bullseye (as well as Forky and Sid).
