So, yea, I’m on Fosstodon. https://fosstodon.org/@xgqt
Hope I don’t get banned ;^)
But in all seriousness, it’s been pretty great. My colleagues warned me that there’s a lot of SJWs but only one person I spoke with wanted to be addressed “differently” + didn’t express that aggressively, so whatever.
Se yall on mastodon ;D
Because contents of this blog are stored in a git repository you can just
1 |
git clone --verbose --recursive https://gitlab.com/xgqt/blog |
then, read the "raw" ORG files in 'posts' directory or make the HTML version executing the 'dev.sh' script (remember that you will need GNU Emacs to render the posts into HTML files).
Then, you can just git pull to read the news whenever you wish, maybe do it with cron or a script that will pull many repos at once, for example with this script.
Org-Static-Blog creates a RSS Feed file rss.xml, so to subscribe add the link https://xgqt.gitlab.io/blog/rss.xml to your favorite RSS reader.
You can also subscribe to the GitLab repository Atom feed.
We were discussing some vulnerabilities on the src~prepare~ group's [matrix] channel and when we're talking about systemd errors. I just felt like opening their GitHub and browsing the code. I was just reading the comments… and I saw a comment about kernel APIs and there a emoji. My feeling is probably best expressed my common "KEK". I chuckled. The "Abstract" in 0.0.1 is the original idea I typed on [matrix]. The funniest part of this "development" for me is probably that Emacs on my system doesn't display properly ANY of the emojis in emojid. I had to go back and forth between the source and log files opened in FF (because it renders the emojis properly), emojipedia and "broken" Emacs.
What you do is clone the repository, execute make and run the binary. Read your log and see if your system is "affected" :P.
And remember emoticons made of the symbols found on the keyboard will always look better ;)
What I did this year:
I wish you all merry Christmas and happy new year. Less bugs, more resolved issues, no wontfixes, better compatibility. Faster compilation, less failures. And of course no lawsuits, no copyright infringements and better government.
Backing up using this method takes a lot less space - ~60MB (without distfiles) and can be restored on almost any system (running portage) and tweaked afterwards for, say, CPU architecture. I've created a a short script with similar method in here.

On some old routers, namely TP-Link's TL-WR840N version 2, there may not be a option to switch to access point mode. This is what you have to do to access that mode indirectly.

I to was boli, bo rozwój internatu jest przykładem tego, jak mógłby się rozwijać nasz świat, gdyby nie te wszystkie wasze regulacje, gdyby nie ten ciężki plecak przepisów i podatków który każdy z nas musi na co dzień dźwigać. Internet to jest po prostu ostatni bastion wolności i to wam nie daje spać, bo to jest dowód na to, że wszystkie wasze regulacje i te rozporządzenia, dyrektywy, są tak naprawdę zbędne i szkodliwe i świat bez tego rozwijałby się lepiej, rozwijałby się dokładnie tak jak Internet, że gdyby nie te wasze właśnie ambitne plany, wartości dodane, efekty dźwigni, wysyłanie silnych sygnałów, to wszystko, żyłoby się nam po prostu lepiej i prościej. Dlatego próbujecie to zniszczyć, dlatego próbujecie wsadzić stopę w drzwi za każdym razem kiedy pojawia się okazja. Ale my nie chcemy waszej nogi w tych drzwiach. Teraz cofacie się o parę centymetrów, bo ludzie protestują, ale my nie chcemy was tam w ogóle, nie chcemy waszych regulacji, nie chcemy waszych łap w Internacie. To działa dobrze, twórczość rozwija się w Internecie bez żadnych waszych regulacji.
Interent has become what it is, it has become a miniature world due to the voluntary involvement of ordinary people, thanks to the lack of regulation. And this hurts you, because the development of the Intenet is an example of how our world could develop, without all your regulations, without this heavy backpack of regulations and taxes that each of us must carry on a daily basis. The internet is simply the last bastion of freedom and this is the thing that doesn't let you sleep, because it is proof that all your regulations and those ordinances, directives, they are really unnecessary and harmful and the world would develop better without it, it would develop exactly like the Internet, that if it weren't for your ambitious plans, added values, leverage effects, sending strong signals, then everyone would have lived just better and simpler. That's why you try to destroy it, that's why you try to stick your foot in the door whenever there is an opportunity. But we don't want your leg in our door. Now you are retreating a few centimeters because people are protesting, but we don't want you there at all, we don't want your regulations, we don’t want your hands in the Internet. It works well, creativity develops on the Internet without any of your regulations.
