wow.. new proper deterministic static analysis tooling and no `AGENTS.md` in sight… it can be done y'all! still! despite rust supposedly being "good for llms" it also stays winning at not _needing_ llms at all to analyze code and having actual tools instead

sorry???

#Brazil

Now _that's_ an election to worry about. It could literally affect our ability to breathe oxygen, if Bolsonaro's cretinous little clone goes ahead and ramps up industrialisation of the Amazon to the extent he's threatened […]

any #GNOME #accessibility testing enjoyers? Demostage will have something for you (whenever I actually release it..)

i guess many people have memory holed the 2000s but PHP mostly took off because shared hosting with Apache mod_php was _the only hosting out there_. there literally was No Choice. (_some_ hosts allowed CGI but the new-process-per-request model with interpreted languages on 00s cheap hardware […]

Slopitalist Realism: an inability to imagine a reality/future where LLMs are broadly undesired, rejected, and are not necessary to "catch up" with capitalist corporations.

told y'all the killchain is the new blockchain. invest invest invest

if elon muskrat's latest stunt car is supposed to fly in the air then why da fuck did he call it a ROADster?? stupid fool. clearly that's an airster

eDP display up on Quasar/CQ8750S in MNT Reform/Station! funny how firefox is totally usable even without GPU accleration (llvmpipe software rendering). GPU comes next, gonna need to pull in some kernel patches.

Ah yes, as a Tumblr user I definitely need a.. (checks notes) Quantum RNG appliance for my datacenter

i just typed the word "engagement" (in the social media sense) and got a sudden flashback to the simpler times of 2019 when what we were laughing about was this very entergaging garfield fast food app (later also physical locations open to the public! not in my city lmao)

If the Metaverse caused the rename of Facebook to Meta, surely the Slopiverse should cause the rename of Meta to Slop

Wow, RPCS3 has properly fixed disappearing graphics in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Never thought I'd see the day. xD

ah yes i sign and verify all my messages using ML-DSA (Machine Learning - Democratic Socialists of America)

~~oh no i saw an update from "CouchDB" and immediately thought of a certain U.S. politician~~

NFC is T4T????????

this is the perfect metaphor to understand the distinction between AI doomer concerns versus AI skeptic concerns

screw node, let's replace deno with gjs

oh cool binary ninja free includes arm64 now and is built for arm64 linux. now i have no reason to become a paying customer xD

lmao yes great

wow `IOCTL_GNTDEV_DMABUF_EXP_WAIT_RELEASED` is the most hilarious API blunder in the kernel. I'm not sure if anyone else has actually needed/used it before, but I did, and uh- so it's a blocking poll for just this one thing, the buffer being released, right? so you have to block an entire […]

if there's a debian inference portal there must be a debian outference portal somewhere nearby. simple physics. you go in through one side and come out of the other side.

AppImage is so infuriating. Some developers demand issues be reported using official builds which are AppImages, and I literally cannot run them!! Trying to "just run lol" always results in a bunch of "Error relocating … symbol not found" because I'm on a musl system and gcompat is never good […]

RE: https://mastodon.social/@pojntfx/117315519904062912 I do hear plenty of criticism and skepticism even in IRL non-nerdy interactions buuuut, yes, holy shit, the annoying people on here have such a trigger-happy radical position that it's tiresome and it feels like they're about to harass you […]

ngl some people on this hellsite do need to take a deep breath and go touch some grass

please tell me I won't be the only one calling it the Booglegook

"Agentic computing": it's when federal agents intercept messages from your computer

GitHub's landing page is all about slopifying your business and so on but their CI run examples on the screenshot include fixes for Internet Explorer 12 and 11. Does anyone even remember IE anymore? I guess you could say that the one good thing "AI" […] [Original post on social.treehouse.systems]

I was wondering why my laptop had _strange_ "freezing" when closing the lid and using an external monitor… more precisely disabling the external touchpad… and making the keyboard wake the internal display… https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/43811 oopsie

Code for this madness, if anybody else wants to have a go: https://codeberg.org/drakulix/drm-lease-hack (And yes it would probably be nicer to do the same thing by proxying the dbus-system socket and intercepting logind calls, but that is far more involved and might need more permissions and/or […]

Huh, these days LineageOS does not complain at all about not having reset userdata and just picks everything up from a stock ROM… to very cursed results

lol portuguese UI just abbreviates sexta-feira as "sex"?? that's… fun i guess :D
