@phillycodehound @dansup question, I found this app looking for a smaller social media, I’ve been seeing a lot about fediverse in here, curious what that is and the difference between this and fediverse
@tjthebean FediDeck is an interface for interacting with your fediverse family. It's Tweetdeck or Hootsuite for the Fediverse and Bluesky
Apropos of nothing.
@thomholwerda wow

@jonah @stux that used to be the case here in New Zealand, but rent is so expensive now that when we sold and then our purchase fell through we bought shitty house and tidied it up (kept 10k back from sale of previous house) and sold it when the right place came up that we actually wanted, because we couldn't afford to rent the equivalent of what we were going to buy.
Because inflation is a thing, you're effectively locking in your mortgage repayments - which is your "rent" - at the current days rates (with interest fluctuation of course), and if you increase your payments over time closer to what rent would be, you're even further ahead. But you don't have to.
@nigel @stux what I’m saying is more that if you already have the down payment to buy a house, you could be better off financially and also be taking on a lot less risk by investing that cash and continuing to rent. Most landlords are definitely not profiting more than stock market returns.
I’d be curious if you took the cash from your sale and did the math on what you could gain from that, how affordable rent would be in that case.
That being said, if you can get a house for $0 down, and you also generally have the ability to pay for a massive emergency expense on short notice, then buying a house can be a good deal.
There are also a lot of other good reasons to buy a house, I don’t regret it whatsoever, but just thinking about the financials alone (especially in the way the screenshot above is positioning it) it probably doesn’t make a lot of sense.
@danedeasy NOT HELPING!
@bigzaphod @danedeasy It’s not that good. It gave me a headache from playing for the last six hours straight so it’s clearly bad for you. (Mostly, it has me wondering about the brain space consumed by the puzzles I remember solving in the 90s…)
I found this photo in an eBay listing for a batch of used pinball-machine balls in July of 2000.
I didn't bid, but I messaged the seller letting them know they absolutely made my day with this photo and they replied with gratitude. I even set it as the desktop image on a computer I used in the arcade workshop I worked in at the time.
It's been sitting on my hard drives for 26 years, and I no longer wish to keep it to myself.
@Rob_T_Firefly Several years ago I watched a documentary about the manufacture of ball bearings and took some screenshots of the subtitles.
"Wong said all options were on the table: a coalition, a confidence and supply agreement, or sitting on the cross benches.
For Opportunity to form a coalition, Wong said the party would need to feel 'very confident' in the overall direction of the government."

@lightspill Ah, thought you meant their ditching 10% of their people for LLMs. The two are likely related. SuSE morale has to be TERRIBLE right now.
@mason@partychickens.net I'd forgotten about that. Though I bet my co-worker who used to work for SuSE before they ditched their Ceph effort has feelings about it.
@alsternerd @root42
Meistens kranken all die Dinger an fehlendem Support für andere Distributionen außer Debian oder RedHat.
Oder aber, die wollen solche App Container haben.
Ich schaue mir das aber gern mal an ..
Danke!
@bodsch @alsternerd @root42 ich kann noch https://usebottles.com/ empfehlen...

*rubbing eyes* I stated this indistinctly.
There is a target CoreCompile. dotnet.exe runs this automatically.
We have our own targets, A, B, C, D. A, B and C are listed as AfterTarget="CoreCompile". D is listed as AfterTarget "A,B,C,D".
At this exact moment, what I believe is that I have stated an ordering where if you compile A, B, or C, you must build D after that, but I have not stated ANY dependency such that D must be *delayed* until A, B and C have completed.
⁇
We seem to get the behavior we want if we give D an AfterTargets="A;B;C" AND a DependsOnTargets="A;B;C". Okay. I…
I think this is correct?

For those expecting the Needy Disappointed would deliver us from 'neoliberalism', it seems the radical ten year plan has become a (delayed) 'high level' blueprint which may be less specific than had been envisaged by many continuing to hope the 'politics of trying' might deliver..
Optimistically, this is the result of finding it harder to radically change the UK's political economy than he thought;
pessimistically, the dead hand of Blue Labour has stuck (again).

@mason@partychickens.net Upgrading from 16.0 to 16.1 moves the default kernel form one with a patch for the latest TCP vulnerability to one without the patch. And there is no patched kernel for 16.1 yet. Thankfully I can just boot with the old one, but it's still a gigantic WTF.

@jalefkowit “why even bother having a library at that point” 😂
Sorry, the app encountered an unexpected error
