Seems like the SEO experts have found LinkTaco and are adding back links. Realizing I didn't place "nofollow" on the links. I'll get that fixed today.

Updated my Samsung to One UI 7.0. That was a mistake.

Woke up at 5am yesterday to watch Chelsea lose 2-0. (this is a sad)

Stayed awake to watch Barcelona beat Real Madrid for the 4th El Clasico in a row this year. (this is a happy)

So in the end, things evened out. (Not gonna mention the LA Galaxy because I'll just begin to tear up)

@matthewbadger Yea, it must have been a muscle injury because I'm already feeling better (not 100% but I was able to train today).

That sounds terrible. I'm sorry that happened to you. How was the recovery?

Late last year my knees were aching (actually the area right below my knee, like between my shin and knee, no clue what it's called). I ended up resting for about 5 weeks until the pain went away, bought some good sleeves, and really focused on my form until I was able to squat normal weights again and thankfully the pain hasn't returned.

I'm about 12 minutes away from harassing every Arsenal fan I know with:

"'Champions of Europe', you'll never sing that! You'll never sing that! You'll never sing that!"

Like most fans of English clubs, we're all PSG fans today!

I love it.

@whynothugo @josh We also try to pitch this (including hosting) but it's a very hard sell.

Especially moving off of Google Apps or Office 365. It's just too convenient, even with the many draw backs. Smaller organizations seem to be more open to it but obviously a much smaller budget, which is probably OK.

We've had some success in convincing companies to at least add Mastodon to their social presence by using examples of Twitter/FB removing accounts who've done nothing against TOS and how that can affect their presence.

One thing we like to do is point out sketchy, or just plain terrible, clauses or sentences in the TOS of some services.

I've been exhausted from training as I reached the end of the current block. I told myself that my back is tired. Feels tight/sore. Don't push myself today. I even said I wasn't gonna being my belt or chalk so I'm not tempted to push.

I didn't listen. I brought my belt. My chalk. I pushed. I hurt my god damn back. Now I'm walking around like Quasimodo over here.

Hope it's not too bad. Feels like I'll be fine in a couple of days. Luckily I'm going on vacation next week so I'll be resting for a bit.

I don't see what all the fuss is about. All US businesses have to do is build a few tens of thousands of factories and then hire and train 10 million specialised workers who'll be willing to work 60-hour weeks for $3 an hour.

Should take 6 weeks, tops. 3 if they use ChatGPT.

Libera.Chat would not be what we are today, if not for OSL's sponsorship of the network before us.

OSL has been an integral part of open source and open culture project support for a very long time. They support projects we use, learn from, and contribute to. Many of these projects call Libera.Chat home.

Nonprofits, businesses, governments, and you all depend on projects OSL sponsors. If not directly, then somewhere upstream.

OSL is worth saving.

I was today's years old when I realized that a #golang http.Server.Listen() can be called multiple times with multiple listeners.

Until now I was instantiating multiple servers, one for each listener instead, which was a waste of resources.

"- In March 2025, senior members of the World Uyghur Congress (WUC) living in exile were targeted with a spearphishing campaign aimed at delivering Windows-based malware capable of conducting remote surveillance against its targets.

- The malware was delivered through a trojanized version of a legitimate open source word processing and spell check tool developed to support the use of the Uyghur language. The tool was originally built by a developer known and trusted by the targeted community.

- Although the malware itself was not particularly advanced, the delivery of the malware was extremely well customized to reach the target population and technical artifacts show that activity related to this campaign began in at least May of 2024.

- The ruse employed by the attackers replicates a typical pattern: threat actors likely aligned with the Chinese government have repeatedly instrumentalized software and websites that aim to support marginalized and repressed cultures to digitally target these same communities.

- This campaign shows the ongoing threats of digital transnational repression facing the Uyghur diaspora. Digital transnational repression arises when governments use digital technologies to surveil, intimidate, and silence exiled and diaspora communities."

Anyone else ever wonder if your recorded call was ever used for training or quality purposes?

I don't think I honked this but someone crashed my main vehicle about 6 weeks ago. And the wheels turn very slowly here in Nicaragua so I've been driving my old Hilux in the mean time (I was literally going to sell it the day after the crash, so I had to cancel that).

Well, finally today I get my vehicle back.

Oh, fun fact about Nicaragua. Full coverage car insurance here covers only 80% of the damages. So I have to pay 20% of the repair costs even though it wasn't my fault. Fun times in the tropics.

Migrated from anubis to go-away for a few reasons:

1. Anubis became to flashy for me. The progress bar, the need for npm, etc. just to build it. I hacked my own fork to keep that stuff out but keeping up with development became too much work.
2. go-away supports one daemon for multiple backends
3. go-away is a lot more configurable in terms of rules, conditions, specific situations, etc.

Not hating on Anubis. I still think it's great, just no longer fit my needs as it developed.

Just ran into this in the wild for the first time. I threw up a bit in my mouth.

Oh ffs! Just learned about "meal sequencing". Just eat clean whole foods (most of the time) and move your body. Don't worry about getting your fiber before your protein or whatever the fuck.

“Slopsquatting” in a nutshell:

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but
2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but
3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So
4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

Honkers out there. Can you help me with the following #honk terminology and fill me in where I'm missing or correct me if I'm wrong:

donk = image (attachment)
bonk = boost
xonk = ?
zonk = mute / delete
badonk = ?
qonk = vote in poll

Also have most of you moved to honk3? I don't remember if there is a migration process from old school honk to honk3 or even if it's something that's recommended heh. I'm pretty find with old school honk so.

White Lotus ending didn't disappoint. Even though this was my least favorite season, I did enjoy the last couple of episodes and the finale paid off.
