Habe ich eigentlich zufällig eine Person, die ein ThinkPad L13 Yoga besitzt, in der Timeline?

If you want the Linux-circa-2004 experience back, just try Linux on ARM!

* everything compiles slowly
* distro-hopping to find better hardware support
* oops, you need proprietary drivers for that
* forum posts hold the authoritative documentation *and* code for your distro

:D

Hahaha oh no. I had to restart my compositor, which apparently made my status bar freeze, so I've been assuming it's 1:30am for the last two hours. This explains a lot.

I added another mage with another cloud pet, and made it into a print.

A word of advice to all the new sysops out there:

Never

Ever

Under any circumstances

NEVER

Use a hardware RAID card.

ALWAYS do it in software.

... I have added signatures to, and corrected a few typos in, the open letter:

By the time I'm up and functional, it'll be after business hours in Italy, so maybe the best thing to do is to wait until Monday to send it. Fortunately, the dataset itself has already been deaccessioned, so we're not under so much intense time pressure.

Progress! I have formatted the open letter, and it looks pretty much ready to send around. Here it is in PDF:

And here is a copy in basic HTML:

Wenn deutsche Strafverfolgungsbehörden kein IPv6 können, ist dann der IPv6 Teil des deutschen Internets ein quasi rechtsfreier Raum?

OH:

TFW someone emails me about a piece of software I wrote 18 years ago, which as been unmaintained for 15+ years, asking about my plans for it, and getting upset at the thought of not having any.

The untolds joys of #floss #maintenance, heh.

@chpietsch No, that's right, I can't. But I can expect people to honour social contracts. The software doesn't magically spawn, it is written by people. If researchers make the assumption that everybody is okay with being used in their machine learning pet projects, they are part of the problem.
Having TOS that are not machine readable is a feature. Human intent matters. "They were technically able to do so" is a technocrat excuse.

Switching to a non-systemd system when you've gotten used to the convenience of .service and .timer files is really no fun at all. I'm sure there is a lot of stupid shit in the giant bundle that is systemd, but service files make administrating systems *way* more understandable and accessible.

Früh aufstehen hat sich gelohnt.

"Yea sex is great, but have you ever fucked the system?"

"Yes"
