I'm annoyed no one has told me about the show Severance until my daughter put me hip to game a week ago. I've binged the entire 2 seasons (well, 3 episodes to go) and it's one of the best show's I've seen in a long time. I have to say it's better than #Pluribus. The storytelling in the show is just amazing. I'm sad I'm almost done with the binge.

@zev Will do. Last I checked his MX were also not responding.
So were we just way too early with HelpYouFind.Me because we've had this functionality for years now.

Maybe we're just terrible marketers hah.

Has anyone out there spoken with @tedu? Like, is he OK? His systems have been down for over a month now.
@inwit @fesshole Are you related at all to Donald Trump? He's been on a tear lately with his farts / sharts
Two emails from Jeffrey Epstein to Bill Gates show:
Gates contracted an STD and transmitted it to his wife Melinda.
Gates asked Epstein for antibiotics that he could give to his wife without her knowledge.
They are all so, so gross.
@josephcox It's amazing to me how quickly just blindly trust these new tools and "give up the goose" so easily.
It just continues to prove that even tech savvy people, engineers, etc. are mostly clueless when it comes to security, privacy, and so on.

@cptn @tedu Nice!
@cptn Yup. It's an issue with @tedu's sites being down. The module is humungus.tedunangst.com/r/gonix. You can see my fork here which is basically the tedu repo with some very small tweaks I've made over the years
I wonder what's up with Ted. Maybe try shooting him an email.
@ols and if they did, they were wrong.
@smlavine Awesome! Thanks for the details. My buddy @AndrewHacks has been telling me to try KDE for years. I'd be lying if I said I will try it "soon" but I'll get around to it. Honestly I do love my i3 setup and I'm so used to it, switching would be pretty hard for me. I'm old and set in my ways.
Small blurbs about the books I read last year.

@smlavine Loooong time i3 user so I'm curious, what features are the big ones for you?
My issue is more of habit. I'm a bit OCD so changing will be pretty painful for me for at least a week. Especially since I'm quite content with my current setup.
Seems like @tedu's systems have been down for a quite a while now. Anyone out there in #honk land know what's going on?
@tedu I think something is very wrong with (my) honk. I am missing, out of no where, nearly an entire year of stored honks from the @alpinelinux account (see image). Now I know this was not the case last month because I saw this toot, on my honk instance, and upgraded my Alpine a day or 2 later.
I do have honk cleanup running daily but seems weird that would remove newer data versus older.
I should note I am using the original honk, not honk3. My instance is up to date with your changes with very minimal changes not at all related to this issue.
Any idea on what may cause this?
@horia @xhr Hah TIL about fn+space and the keyboard backlight. I never even noticed the icon on the space bar of all my thinkpads haha. Works as well here on Alpine Linux. The smallest things impress me

FreeBSD has Wireguard support in the base OS, but it's not well documented how to use it. So here you go. Hopefully an example lands in the FreeBSD Handbook soon.

The goroutine leak profile in the upcoming Go 1.26 is a big deal.
But the synctest package, available since 1.24, can also catch leaks just fine. I don't know why no one talks about this.
Anyway, it's time to cover both of them!

New #coffee mug dropped.
@tedu Was it the Chase lounge? Because I was there a couple of weeks ago (in PHX) and the lounge was fine but there was a huge wait (like an hour) to get in. They said it's better to make reservations, like wtf for real? I ended up only having time for 1 free beer and as far as I'm concerned that's not a qualified lounge experience.
Been a while so I have some updates:
1. Pluribus is FANTASTIC. Best show I've seen in a while now.
2. The Diddy documentary was pretty good.
3. The New Yorker 100 years documentary was great!
4. California and Arizona were cold at night.
5. Costa Rica and Nicaragua are not cold at night.
That is all.
To battle test our #OpenSource routing engine Rotonda, we are in dire need of a bare metal server. Can you help us?
We have several offers for #BGP feeds and in-kind rack space, but no capable server to continually run our tests on.
We realise this is a big ask, because it would have to be quite a beefy server with a lot of RAM (128GB+). If you are decommissioning old servers, or know of any way to help our #NonProfit foundation, please reach out.
Sharing is caring. 🧡
If there's one thing I learned by living in Latin America for so long it's this...
Miss Universe pageant is a very big deal.
I imagine it's similar in Asia and Africa as well.
I wasn't affected by the #Cloudflare outage because I don't have any websites popular enough to need that service.
I keep staying one step ahead.

I continue to strive to make my mom proud of me. For instance, yesterday I finally added multi font support to my terminal. I can now see more emoji's and icons and powerline smoothness.
The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.
‘Human safaris’ in Sarajevo: Milan investigates 1990s trips where tourists allegedly paid to kill civilians

What the actual f*ck?!?
@nilix Weird. It seems to happen more often than not for me lately but that wasn't the case before. Not sure what could have changed. Anyway thanks for the reply
#honk team - am I the only one that constantly has issues with common servers? Ie, I follow a few users on hachyderm.io but I just tried to follow dalias and I get a 401. I get these most of the time now when trying to follow.
I also notice some users no longer are updating even though when I go to their page (always a Mastodon instance) there is recent activity. I unsub and resub (usually this works) and the updates begin again.
Anyone else seeing this?
