im so good at saying words

OH MY GOD IT HAPPENED https://github.com/google/pebble

remember when target carried raspberry pis for like a year and then stopped

@dalias iirc the tcp/ip stack was fairly directly ported from freebsd so i assume that's fine. their wifi and nat traversal code could really use improvement though

from ccc policies

Your server MUST NOT be made from easily flammable material like paper or cardboard.

....was this a problem

@mcc when it was written in python there was an all-in-one docker container but the rust rewrite doesn't have that, it's still open-source with setup documentation though https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncstorage-rs

@mcc it's a rust application that needs a MySQL db for storage, see https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-syncstorage-git for (unofficial) single-user setup instructions
using it in your browser is just changing a pref to point to it instead of the official server

if i'm understanding correctly the ps5 controller drm hasnt been publicly broken
so unlicensed controllers have a usb host port for plugging in a licensed third-party controller and pass through the drm requests. but this requires you carry a whole second controller around
so, to fulfill this usecase, mayflash (who i guess broke the drm privately??) released an "authorized" "controller" with no buttons

does anyone in the us have personal experience getting an amateur license not under your full legal name via an online exam? from what i can tell the fcc does not actually seem to have an unambiguous policy on this and appears to mostly leave things up to examiners
i'd prefer to have it under the name "leo60228" or "leo vriska" if possible but would settle for legal first initial + last name

@kaia from searching reddit it seems like there isn't really a consensus between whether it doesn't matter at all, if you should always make your whole library public, or if you should at least make the stuff you got from soulseek public

@kaia (if you haven't heard of it: soulseek is a semi-centralized p2p file sharing program that lets people publicly share their music libraries and make them globally searchable. you don't have to make your own stuff public to use it, not really sure what the etiquette is on leeching but tbh the only time i pirate music is a few tracks at a time for research)

@kaia for music soulseek is way more practical than torrenting ime. if you really want to torrent i think rutracker has a music section

@kaia also there are tools that download lossless music from deezer's CDN which will give you most stuff currently for sale (at least from major labels)

i think microsoft should change the word default font to computer modern

@mcc i mean, saying you "may be planning to" do something seems mostly unfalsifiable

@mjg59 remembering the forum thread where people argued about whether malloc or operator new sounded better

@mjg59 https://www.audioasylum.com/messages/pcaudio/119979/ it's really something

@q66 they require a "real name" for legal reasons but the Linux Foundation clarified that the intended meaning is distinct from "legal name" and things like well-established usernames would qualify

@q66 basically they want to ensure that it's possible to get in touch with the author of a commit even if their email dies

the EU being able to read my Matrix E2EE messages would be outlandish. i can't even read my Matrix E2EE messages
