Protip: deer don't know what your gun looks like. Having a camo wrap just means if you leave it behind by accident while hunting you'll just have a harder time finding it again. -

@brunomiguel I have a 4TB that I suspected was dying so I pulled it with plans to replace it. Looking at the prices of drives now, it costs more than when I bought it in 2021... -

@collectifission I found a bug report for this -- opened THREE DAYS AGO
But 7 years and nobody on the KDE team saw this happen even one time? Really?
Astonishing -

it used to not be a big deal to build python stuff but now you never know when it's going to pull in Rust which is super annoying -

@galaxis their bulk downloader sucks because it fails often so I had to make a custom script to extract all the links I wanted out of their HTML so I could download them with curl -

@hnygd hi hi hi I have news
I have a working implementation of Chatmail on FreeBSD now.
https://github.com/feld/chatmail-cookbook
I wonder if @stefano would be interested in hosting one on the BSD.cafe infra?
Note: it adds a custom package repo to fetch a couple things not in the ports tree right now (incl a Dovecot patch I need to see if we can get into the port or as a flavor). It's hosted on my home fiber internet, but it might be slow. I'm going to get it moved somewhere with better bandwidth soon.
edit: also the FreeBSD 14 package set is still building... 15 is ready though -

@silverpill @sun oh fucking great so now we need to add a new column to the instances table so we can track which signature type was last known to work for them so we don't waste cpu and bandwidth
And they thought Bitcoin mining was a wasteful use of energy. Now it's shitposting.In conversation from friedcheese.us permalink -

DeltaChat has just made its long-awaited Wireguard-esque multi-relay release.
You can add multiple relays (chatmail/email accounts) to your profile. Your account now survives server outages, censorship, or even government seizures. Your identity is not tied to a single email address anymore.
Change to another relay, message your contacts/groups, and they'll immediately learn the new address they can reach you at and will respond using that address now.
Just like how Wireguard gets a valid encrypted packet from a peer at a new IP address and automatically starts using it.In conversation from friedcheese.us permalink -

gnop is another one of those tools on FreeBSD that I don't know a replacement for on Linux.
You can:
- fake the sector size, stripe size, etc
- customize read/write delay probability
- customize read/write failure probability
so if you wanted to test how your system behaves with misbehaving or failing disks, how would you do that on Linux? On FreeBSD it's quite easyIn conversation from friedcheese.us permalink -

@Suiseiseki @meowski
> and you cannot develop anything for Android without GNU
Sure you can. With B4X's B4A you can develop Android applications with only Java and the Android SDK. No GNU software required at all.

deaf and blind people: please don't help us, we don't want a cure, you're erasing us from society!
people who have to shit in a bag: please, I beg you, cure me, my life is hell

I'll never understand this. I respect their decision when they're making it for themselves anyway, but it's so illogicalIn conversation from friedcheese.us permalink -

all you need to get ahead in America these days is to call someone a racist slur on camera, lose your job, and then get $100k from other racists on the internet like some kind of weird game show In conversation from friedcheese.us permalink -

@sun ooooh I've heard of this! The eSIM got all fucky and wasn't registering VoLTE right yeah? Someone else complained about T-Mobile doing the same.
I guess if they're going to be so goddamn inept after like 10 years past the invention of the eSIM I'll just keep using phones with a real SIM card if I have the choice, anywayIn conversation from friedcheese.us permalink
