mhm, I should built something with a CH32V MCU. Ten cents (!) for a full-blown RISC-V microcontroller you can program in C without any fuzz is very cool.

@SpaciousCoder78 @rohini install libredirect for Firefox and check which are still pingable. IIRC one week ago some still were up

@michel_slm I now have a rough outline of how to go about things but will need to look info getting two machines for that purpose

@rohini @SpaciousCoder78 some nitter instances are still up afaik

Here it is, now I *do* have a list!

@josch @Ganneff I won't stop, but I will invest the time spent on free software mostly elsewhere. As someone who reviewed a lot of MRs on salsa and sponsored a few packages, you can immediately tell if it's slop, and it is just a waste of my time.

Very sad, when I started contributing Debian struck me as having a sane rationale; guess I was wrong.

@martin @disaster2life ah, yeah, Forky ofc.

@disaster2life Until trixie releases I have another project I want to prioritize; if at least 4 other interested people show up I'd be on board.

Ear worm, wtf lucy get some rest
@lucydev thanks, now I want to watch asdf again

Now I am (semi) seriously considering to start Debian GNU/NetBSD, just out of spite. Would've never guessed it'd come to this.

@liw halfjokingly suggested Debian GNU/NetBSD today

the social contract that allows the web to exist at all is literally collapsing in real time

@debacle @josch @Ganneff @j4yc33 I disagree, there is no being neutral. Already people are looking for alternatives to Debian since the project decided that way.

@debacle @Ganneff @j4yc33 @josch Also, the permanent DoS on both our and the larger FOSS infrastructure is apparently fine. No-one seriously addressed that. This is like getting beaten up and stating " this is just the cost of doing business". This will just lead to more maintainer burnout, and if you do not take a firm stance against slop (or fascism, for that matter), you are helping it, whether you like it or not.

@debacle @josch @Ganneff @j4yc33 this explicitly covered only contributions to Debian, and it's laughable that no ban on LLM usage for that passed. If you need a slop machine to create some packaging, you're not suited to be a DD IMO. Creating my first package was the gateway for me to learn git, more about Linux etc., which is not possible at all it you offload that.

Since I'm glad to finally be able to do this, and wanna get this hardware in as many interested hands as possible, I am discounting the eater-deluxe 6502 based personal computer DIY kit on @tindie@hackaday.social down to USD 151.74, that's EUR 131, up until Friday, September 3rd!


#6502

@Ganneff this is the main problem: You can't just quit using the kernel. I for one will invest my contributions in something I deem a more valuable use of my time. Depressing that it's come to that, #Debian is too much sunk cost at this point for me.

"responsible LLM usage" is the "clean coal" of the tech world

@tris @doctormo @dalias @leah yes, the 3:1 majority would have been needed because of the social contract amendment.
