Shit, shit, shit ! I just realized on the elections notification (Recepisse de demande d'inscreption sur les listes electorales) that the French missed my German nationality, they only list French as nationality. Aaaaaarrrggghhh, that's gonna be fun to get corrected within 2 weeks ....

Well, now sent my mairie an email. Let's see whether they'll still respond before the European elections ...

(Since our elections only verify the Names, the date and place of birth I don't think that's a problem after all. But still I want it to be corrected.)

40 minutes later. My RAM consumption reached the 24 GiB. rustc is still linking a fuing executable. The same executable. And no, I don't run on low-end hardware. How can a fuing matrix client compile for as long as my Kernel ?

Controversial opinion : rust was a mistake. There should have been c+++ instead.

Glad I still upgraded the cooling to an active system before compiling. It used to be passive before. FreeBSD Kernel : no problem, 40 minutes on 90 ° C. Rust : WTF 2 h at 100 ° C. For. A. Chat. Client. No kernel. A chat client.

And now that rustc is done blobbing stuff, fun with generated ninja files incompatible with FreeBSD 😇 ...

Question : Are the websites of the

@pocketvj You have been in Iran last week ? Do you know how accurate and up to date iranrail.net's website is ?

Wow, people kept complaining in my Flutter Arch Linux package in dozens of comments that it doesn't compile - I could absolutely not reproduce it.

Turns out : Instead of shipping a Arch upstream dependency I have stated in the PKGBUILD, they were using some AUR package pretending to provide that dependency.

Wow, once again shows : A random AUR package is often not a valid drop-in replacement for well maintained upstream packages ...

How difficult could it be to ship scrcpy on a stable Linux distribution ? Debian stable : hold my beer ...

Wikipedia's vision is of a world in which everyone can freely share in the sum of all human knowledge. But we cannot achieve that when we are missing so much knowledge about women.

This #WomensHistoryMonth, join us in closing the gender knowledge gap on Wikipedia and across the Wikimedia projects.

#ChangeTheStats #OpenTheKnowledge

Get started: https://wikimediafoundation.org/wikipedia-needs-more-women

Only 19% of all biographies on Wikipedia are about women
Only 13% of Wikipedia editors identify as women
Together, we can Change the Stats

@wikimediafoundation As long as you will continue to support toxic behavior discriminating women and non binary people as editors, this will never happen. The old white male majority of editors will continue protecting itself from newcomers with a fresh mind. The results are visible in what recently happened in the French Wikipedia endangering many people (you absolutely know what I'm writing about).

You need to intervene. You need to stop this. Only then new contributors can rise and raise.

@wikimediafoundation Let me emphasize it : Your call for participation is pure victim blaming. The men don't let us edit. You pretend we do not want to edit. We want to edit, we want to contribute. But the old white cis men don't let us.

Why am I urged to make the ticket box more plugin based ? I mean, one could have a DBus API for drop-in ticket providers so that we could e.g. use or as external ticket providers in there 👀 ?

Fun with :

  • manual kernel updates
  • encrypted /boot + stage 2 bootloader
  • fwupd
  • secure boot with manual signing
  • no shim !

That's the moment where kernel updates still feel like back in 2010 ...

... and it's not getting easier if a TPM still wants to speak a word about the decryption process ...

@martijnbraam You could simply check the hashtag to find related past toots. This is the initial one bringing it up for Linux Mobile : https://fosstodon.org/@mobian/111470074473537430

@martijnbraam Do you have suggestions ? I as of now though the two sentences were sufficient :

  • A beautiful cross-platform wallet application.
  • easily import PkPass files and show them on purpose

I'm not exactly sure what information could otherwise be necessary right on a glace. Always open for suggestions.
