Someone here put me onto Nikola. I'm entirely greatful as I wanted to move my blog stuff away from Wordpress because, frankly, php terrifies me and I wanted to self-host and not get out of my depth, drowning in plugins.
I really like it so far. It's really simple and nice to use.

I wrote you a new blog post (remember those???):
The story of how the Tiny C Compiler got ported to #OpenBSD, from my perspective.
For those of you that have not experienced the acidic joy that is Posh Nosh, they're all on YouTube:

This is one of the things I think I will always find super annoying about Wayland. This is from flameshot, my favourite screencap program for Linux. It has experimental support for gnome/kde wayland.
Will it every support Sway (wlroots)? The fact that each tool now has to support each individual desktop environment (or the windowing kit it's based on) seems like it's entirely the wrong level of abstraction.

Good morning Fedi! What's everyone up to today?

Keep in mind that TV, Radio Facebook and Twitter (and many others) are just different heads of the same hydra. Refuse to give them time or attention.
Pay attention to what depresses you. Pay attention to the propaganda you are being spoon-fed. Then refuse it.
Prefer instead the clinical, logical scalpel of the mind. Study logical fallacies and, as Robert Anton Wilson would have said, remember that all genralizations are evil.
Exercise mindfulness and compassion.

Hyman G. Rickover on energy and it's relationship to civilisation. From 1957. A great read. @simsa02@mastodon.social

@simsa02@mastodon.social Yes. If we are to have the numbers the environmental change to electrification requires there's no other game in town.

Delta Empire's percussion cover of The Prodigy's 'Smack My Bitch Up' is fucking awesome.
@Sommer@mastodon.social The seamless scalable magnifier is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
@Sommer@mastodon.social I don't know who did accessibility for MacOS but whoever it was, I thank them. Hands down the best in the field for visual impairment in my case.
It's like the stereotypical conservative MP banging on about family values and then strangle-wanking themselves to death in a hotel. A badge of hypocrisy.
Personally I think he's a cautionary tale - I've met vanishingly few people that loudly and repeatedly hail themselves as 'male feminists' and 'allies' that weren't predatory assholes. Beware the fox that runs with the hounds.
The Whedon revelations don't surprise me. I've always suspected he's a piece of shit, just from his very judgmental criticism of women he doesn't like.
What I am curious about is what he's actually done. There's little concrete information.
