Truth be told, we tested the A/V for the OpenZFS summit with a showing of Airplane! and perhaps we were predicting the near future.
Infrastructure is so often a story of eggs and baskets, whereby some have far too many.
It's hard to avoid mentioning that the self-hosted equivs to Teams/365/Outlook I look after are down for no more than an hour a year. This is not unique. It's the same for many others I know, from fellow sysadmins to my own students. It's a fairytale that self-hosted infrastructure is unreliable. Simply not the case when built up with best practices, maintained with sufficient knowledge & care.

ICYMI: Introducing FediDB Globe, a real time and interactive overview of the fediverse, mapped onto a globe with search and filters.
Enjoy, and spread the word!
@dansup are you interested in making a simple dating app for fediverse?
I have things in common with only people on fediverse as they're highly educated, and mainstream dating apps are shit.
And it's a fact that you can't find anyone in 2026 without dating apps especially if you're picky asf.
Please please please please please please.

If you have time please try out my voxel landscape test. A bunch of changes were made that should make it more responsive. (current scene details: 1024 64^3 objects over a 4096x4096x8 landscape)

I was so busy watching the FAA ground stop I missed SPACEX SPACE JUNK SHUT DOWN WEST COAST air traffic to Hawaii too today.
the internet: a malicious network
@alisynthesis Obviously.
What I meant was that your machine could be off the internet, but connected to a malicious network anyway, school/university network etc.
Une néonazie espagnole arrêtée alors qu’elle prévoyait d’aller « tirer à Paris »
Un arsenal d’armes a été retrouvé chez Isabel Peralta, figure du néo-nazisme espagnol. La police a aussi identifié un projet de fusillade à Paris, envisagé mi-octobre, dans ses conversations.
Mais sinon, le danger, c'est l'extrême-gauche, n'est-ce pas.
So odd to be governed by repeatedly documented serial pathological liars.
This administration certainly didn't *invent* lying. Most governments lie to their people. But, it's . . . well I mean . . . historically . . . in the US . . . the lying has been . . . moderate.
But lying, about everything, all the time, absolutely without even the slightest reference or allusion to the truth, that is really quite something. And it is a purposeful and conscious *choice* on the part of these folks.
@GeePawHill They lie about things that don’t even matter. It boggles the mind.
Listen, if you are a software engineer being brought back to a company or organization you were laid off from to fix their AI vibe coded mess, you have to do me a favor: please, charge them so much. Just so, so much. The only way they'll learn anything is if you make their shareholders cry.
@AbandonedAmerica they will contract Indians for a third for a month and then kick them out.
As the year draws to a close, you might consider printing a 2027 full-year-on-a-page calendar. I've got you covered here: https://www.neatnik.net/calendar/?year=2027
(Also, is it just me or did 2026 go by way too quickly?)
@neatnik Thanks! I used it this year and it made the year pass in a blink of an eye :)
a cool fact about computers is that it doesn't have to be like this
none of this shit has to be like this
I'm sorry
but
...
OH SHIT !!!

Motherfuckersss !!!!!
@PseudoNovalis A second plane has hit the "Bob".
@nullagent @mhoye this is news because russia is successfully evading sanctions. "It is known" is not the same as direct evidence of circumnavigation of export bans.
Give me ANY western chip maker and I'll show it in a Russia drone.
Imo this isn't happening bc these companies don't care. This is happening bc computers are literally everywhere.
There are a gazillion units of any given popular SBC.
Its completely not surprising to find a super power in possession of hundreds or thousands where tens of millions have been made.
When will Raspberry Pi make a superpower stop getting hold of its latest gear?
@csacaness Ah! Didn't realize there was more than one photo! 🤪
The Dominos are also great, but Y1000 is a bit much - they went up by like 20% or so since last year.
@tsturm I got that because I like marzipan. Tried to not focus on the price 😂
Considering to publish #Phandroid on the Google Play Store - but with a caveat:
It would cost money. (Not much, maybe 1$ or so.)
But it would have a few quite welcome side effects:
1. I could fund some of the costs to maintain it.
2. It would get a broader coverage and the #Fediverse itself would get some more exposure.
3. I could also use it to hint at free alternatives to the Google moloch itself.
What do you think?
