It’s embarrassing. Yes, we’re going to get to the bottom of it. I just
talked to Elon on the way here. We’ve got the best technical minds looking
at how this happened. But I can tell you, I can tell you for 100 percent, I
don’t know this guy
LOL
@baldur hell, even the ones with 5 minute code expiration doesn't work for me with my greylisting setup.

You absolutely can't make this up.
I mean, we've all used Signal as a back channel for keynote chatter at trade conferences, but this ... this takes the cake.
What an incompetent bunch of absolute fuckers.

Suns out, amazing view, not too hot, nice breeze, cup of coffee. Greetings from San Juan del Sur, #Nicaragua.
Half a day with this deployed and it's been working great! Noticeably lower load and traffic reaching the service. Gonna watch this over the weekend and if all good still, gonna put it in front of our public git and hg web interfaces.
We rolled out Anubis to help stop the AI assault. So far, so good:

There are no open source devs at the table when they choose to no longer publish under an open source software license. They are free to do that and we respect their decision. Please also respect our decision not to use that software any longer, if it is no longer free software.
There are many ways to monetize software. Turning free software into proprietary one is one such thing. But after that switch it is no longer free software. That's it, no need for euphemism.

@tedu I took my 2018 (? ish) 6th gen x1 carbon out of my storage cabinet to give to my wife because her 4th gen started having issues.
I sat there on my < 1 year old P14 beast looking longingly at the x1. Easily the best keyboard of any laptop I've ever used. I wish Lenovo put that keyboard on this P14 (I am not a fan of the P14 kb at all)
@tedu Danke!
Claude availability by country/region:

Haiti, where gangs are shooting at civilians planes at the airport when they're landing is allowed.
Costa Rica, where gangs recently rushed a beach on the Caribbean side of the country spraying AK47's at people simply enjoying the day with their families, is allowed.
Mexico, I don't need to say more here, is allowed..
Nicaragua however, which is one of the safest countries in the Western Hemisphere (despite also being the 2nd poorest) is not allowed.
I know it's politics and not really crime that's the reason but man this annoys me.
@tedu Share the wealth. Those bastards are hounding my srht instance too. I ban daily but damn it's annoying.
@tedu Too bad. The bar looks cool
A few days with @librewolf and mostly it's fine. I can't seem to view Netflix and some other zoom issues but whatever. I don't really use Netflix on the browser anyway. I'll just load Firefox for zoom meetings.
(Yes, I tried all the suggested fixes for Netflix/zoom but nothing has worked for me. Maybe because of Alpine?)

Anyone going to #FOSSY this year? I'm itching for a tech conference and I've never been to FOSSY so I figure it'd be fun.

@blainsmith @limeleaf Gotcha, thanks! I'm kind of entertaining the idea of going to hledger but I'm not sure I can swing it with the people I work with heh.
@knapjack I don't need check printing no, but like 1099 printing would be nice (not sure if GNUCash can do that).. But that's not a hard requirement. Those can be done by hand or I'm sure there are PDF templates out there to print on top of 1099 forms.
OK, so QuickBooks (Intuit) now requires a subscription to use their software, even the desktop version. So I need a way to manage the books for 5 different companies that don't have any crazy requirements.
Has anyone out there ever migrated to GNUCash from QB? Any experience with it? How about getting really crazy and using something like ledger or hledger? I'm fine with the CLI but getting my bookkeeper and CPA on board with this will be fun.
@blainsmith it seems like limeleaf is similar business to mine, what do you use to manage your books?
Just looking for general advice on migrating away from QB. Preferably an open source tool but I'm open to anything. My only requirement is that I can run it offline. Bonus points if it runs on Linux but I'm fine with using a VM if need be.
Boosts greatly appreciated!

@teleclimber @adamghill Gotcha. Honestly I never gave it much thought but you have a point.
I can't with UEFA anymore. The corruption for Real Madrid is too much. There is always some weird scenario that comes up that gives RM a penalty or some advantage but disallowing Julian Alvarez' goal for double touching is total bs. This is the wildest I've seen yet. Even my (many) friends who support RM say that was bs but of course, they're happy and used to it because it always falls in their favor.
Ugh, why do I let football ruin my day....

#RealMadridHaterForLife #ChampionsLeague
Barca won yesterday. Dortmund just one. Both moving on to the quarter finals. I think this will be one of my favorite #ChampionsLeague seasons in a while if Real Madrid is knocked out today. Fingers crossed!
@teleclimber @adamghill I'm pretty sure there are ways to do this already. Django can do streaming responses and I seem to remember some apps to help do what you want but honestly I don't do enough fancy front end to remember.
If you wanna toy around you can say parse the header/footer sections, stream the header, stream the "meat", then the footer. Quick and easy experiment I suppose.
@teleclimber @adamghill Django will parse the template first, then populate it, then render it fully before returning it, by default.
Of course if you want to hack the gibson, you can work around that and do streaming responses, etc.
PSG ... wow. #championsleague
Giving #librewolf a spin for a while and see how it goes...
@nilix We have the same goals. My wife has a bit of an issue with the girlfriends part but I think she's coming around...

@Sandra Where do you live where the passports are only valid for 5 years? I just renewed mine (last year) and it's til 10 years thankfully.
Now Bluesky's Jay Graber is simply lying.
“If a billionaire came in and bought Bluesky and took it over, or I decided tomorrow to change things in a way that people didn’t really like, then they could fork off and go on to other applications.”
https://observer.com/2025/03/bluesky-ceo-jay-graber-wants-world-without-caesars/
Of course, this makes absolutely no sense, but tech media dutifully just prints it.
What does "fork off and go on to other applications" mean?
What is it she is even saying?
Getting really tired of this gaslighting BS.

@JordiGH Can't answer the poll normally so I'll reply.
Yep, I know what that is
Nothing makes me feel like I'm living on the edge like watching go generate
(do translations) push my system load to above 20.
@dirk I noticed you moved to snac. Still running on the rpi? Honk has always been great for me except for weird cases when I can't communicate with another server and I have no clue why but that seems to have cleared itself up.
@zev The good ol' days :)
Twitter was taken down by hackers today. My #honk instance has never been taken down by hackers. Just sayin'. 
It's Monday morning and I'm not even onto my second cup of coffee yet. So I gotta get this off my chest.
It really really annoys me when a USB-A connector doesn't fit into an HDMI port. I just want to transfer some files damn it. This should be solved already.
Get on it geeks!
Watched "A Complete Unknown" last night. I really liked it. I recommend you all watch it as well.

@teleclimber Yea, I often do that as well though it never works as anytime I look at years old cold I bow my head in shame. My buddy @AndrewHacks wrote me this in response:
I also over generalize functions in the beginning. Like try to make it handle use cases that likely never come up hah
Another deadly sin :)
New blog post just dropped:
https://petersanchez.com/slow-coding/
@Merovius Essentially it's this. In two places I have similar calls like:
lt.Translate("%s Links", obj.Title)
and
lt.Translate("%s Links", obj.Name)
This creates a conflict in translation IDs in the out.gotext.json file. I tried using custom ID's in the .json files and manually adjusting them but then they are just overwritten during the next go generate
. I tried various times, including changing how the variables are referenced in the translation files.
Finally I gave up and just used a Title
variable where the Name
was used. This basically makes the translations think it's the same translation, which technically I guess it is anyway.
Thus the weird hack of creating a random Title
var and using it in that case and my comment, while lacking any sense, shows my frustration and annoyance hah.
This is what a professional software dev comments look like:

If any Go devs out there are great with translations and want to help me, I'd appreciate it. Then I can remove this hack and comment :)

@nilix 
About a month ago I made LinkTaco live. We're now at around 100k bookmarked imported/saved. Not a lot but the bots have found us and their traffic has gotten annoying.
So a change was just pushed live, FYI for those few users out there who may be seeing this:
https://lists.code.netlandish.com/~netlandish/links-discuss/%3CD8A2MMRJ2F12.1H3H29T1XO6MG@netlandish.com%3E
PS - If you're a Go dev or know front end well enough we need help :) LinkTaco is open source so, if you're bored and want a project to help out with, it's much appreciated.
