@dalias I remember an EV that emulates shifting/motor sound.

I really start to believe that in terms of browsers, ladybird will be the lesser evil in the future...

@codinghorror @dalias German here: the gist of GDPR is: people must know when someone connects personal data.

You can perfectly life without a cookie banner if you don't set one for arbitrary visitors. That was the intended result. But reality instead invented this UX nightmare, because we can't have nice things.

For me it just shows how fucked up today's web actually is.

@dalias interesting. Where do you see the issues with cow?

@ariadne screams in libpam.

It's amazing, how everyone implements their own utf8 parsers...

First I was the old man yelling at cloud, then I became the old man yelling at cloud engineers.

There are people that are doing security and there are people that are doing compliance. There are very few people that can do both.

@q66 in the other hand I have a superior power button that actually lights up!

@q66 don't call it loose connection, call it extra button instead!

@q66 btw, we're sharing the same taste 🙂

@dalias @ariadne They are not attracted to file systems, but to drama.

#rust Quick Tip for people that develop in rust and hate the long compile times while developing:

1. install the mold linker [1]

2. add this to your ~/.cargo/config.toml (adapt for your platform)

```
[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]
linker = "clang"
rustflags = ["-C", "link-arg=-fuse-ld=/usr/bin/mold"]
```

3. Praise the mold developers

I may have done the greatest misuse of the Rust type system ever!

How do I know?

#followerpower #kubernetes Anyone seen something like this? - It's a crd I just created and it's just Schrödering... Oo

Ooooooooooh...

@psykose @q66 Ha, you never worked in bigcorps, did you?

@dalias It's a misconception that `goto`s must not be used. There are usecases - especially in C which lacks the 'defer' statement - where it's just needed to write non-awful code.

@dalias I never thought I would've said that, but please use gotos! :D
