@mirabilos yeah, and they don't even realize it. It's rather tiring to the point where I already decided to contribute more to the KiCad libraries for now because they have a strict ban on slop.

@mirabilos yeah, this is why am I rather exhausted from that discussion. Granted, I did start it, but how detached from reality the LLM proponents are surprisingly even me.

ok but have you considered that disconnecting from the internet is actually a good thing?

suddenly felt like I was transported to an alternate reality

a lorry driving past with the GNU logo on its side, somehow

xkcd303: but instead of "Compiing", programers now say "Github".

And accepted now. This means user services work now, and a future native init is just an apt install away.

openrc-dbus-user-session and openrc-init packages are now NEW (i.e. queued for review):

https://dfsg-new-queue.debian.org/reviews/openrc/0.63.3-3

This will allow openRC user services to work in Debian, and eventually standalone init.

real. fuck your ai overview

Because I set my Mastodon posts to automatically delete, I channeled my anger into this blog post telling Tech Bros to fuck off. https://sightlessscribbles.com/posts/a-thermodynamic-failure-of-the-soul/

Breaking news: GitHub survives massive cyberattack because it was already down. This marks the third time GitHub has used tactical down time to prevent cyber attacks this year.

I'm much less upset about the destruction of rare (old, out of print, niche) books by megacorps than I am about the fact that those books can't be digitized by libraries for public access or benefit because the former is legal and the latter is not.

@gloriouscow @microblogc @nina_kali_nina yeah, this was it, thank you!

@nina_kali_nina It's not the "Magnetic Recording Handbook" nor "The Complete Handbook of Magnetic Recording" ;
I do remember it was the first in a series, and had a brown-ish cover.

Hello Fedi,

recently someone posted a book that detailed how to build #floppies from scratch (including the ferrofluid etc.) I thought I had saved or boosted it, but apparently not. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact title, maybe @nina_kali_nina knows? In general the book was talking about magnetic storage, and was from the 80's (I think). Please boost.
EDIT:
Found it thanks to @vaporeon_ and @gloriouscow , it's "Magnetic Recording, Volume 1".

I guess my weirdest achievement so far:

Having started a #Debian GR with probably the most options, ever.

Do Not Talk To Me About "AI"

I had some cards printed up.

These are unlikely to change any minds, but they will defintely shorten some incredibly tedious conversations at the bar.

Here's a PDF if you'd like some of your own.

@Diziet great work! Feel free to send a mail.
