In order to save myself a lot of typing — and you all a lot of eye-rolling — just assume I've responded to any vaguely positive mention of LLM/GenAI with concerns about quality which worsens with niche content, and real fears that industries will ship a stopgap workaround and call it a solution.

Instead of DoH, how about anything over DNS? 😎

I've been playing with dnscat2 this evening. I got it working but it's kind of chunky and dies sometimes.

@gd Wasn't there some kind of tunnel-over-dns stuff like 15-20 years ago, back when WAP portals required auth but DNS still worked?

FWIW, it was probably even worse than what you're describing.

Congrats to the team for getting 13.3 and 14.1 out the door! 🎉

Happy updating everyone!

@pete_wright Someone should extend neofetch on FreeBSD to include zfs ashift values!

This was rather more decisive than I expected/hoped.

The pro-Firefox leaning may be sample bias — a difficult force to counter in organic systems like the fediverse.

While I'm glad there were no Google shills voting here, I'm concerned that some see Google's bullying as inescapable.

While I didn't have anything in mind for the last option, it would have been fascinating to hear alternative takes.

If you have any perspective not represented here, please share!

another excellennt toilet thought: ppl been making tea wrong way all along... could've just put leaves in the water without boiling, sure it takes a bit longer for the juice to come out...

the traditional way is just quicker and convenient, i followed it without a second thought somehow...

Do i know somehow with good C knowledge?
I searching for features of C versions that are originated from C++.
I know C23 got [[nodiscard]], but I'm searching also for
C99
C11
C17
(reposting is appreciate)

@sickeroni C89/ISO C90 required all variable declarations to be at the top of the scope in which they were used. It was an error to declare a variable after a statement.

C++ permitted this and was formalized in the C++98 standard.

C got this feature in the following C99 standard, along with single-line comments.

@sickeroni Seems like mostly a convenience at the end of the day. Plus, pre-C99 was still a fairly Wild West state of programming.

@sickeroni More a Go feature than C++ (but relying on lambdas as in C++) is N2895: "A simple defer feature for C":

https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2895.htm

I'm not sure the status of this, but I'm glad I'm not involved in the decision.

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@hackymix @sickeroni Oh nice! I swear I saw lambdas mentioned, but maybe that was just a possible impl?

Is there a good link for discussion of the proposed feature/impl?

@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@hackymix @sickeroni Cheers!

@evan In that they convey the sentiment of the original post/medium without contributing to its metrics/algorithm, yes.

A single felony count prevents him from carrying a pea shooter, but I guess wielding the U.S. military is fine.

Can we convict him of insurrection and treason now, please?

And revamp Alcatraz just to hold him and the rest of his crime family associates?

@alexr I'd be first in line for ferry tickets to that Alcatraz tour.

Yeah, I'm glad for the conviction, but it's not a victory until the GOP dismisses him.

My proxmox box has spontaneously rebooted a few times since upgrading to 8.2.2. Nothing in the logs, so I just had to go through a very obtuse dance with kernel command line arguments to get it to log out to BMC SOL which I'm capturing in a tmux session on a stable box, all in hopes of seeing why Linux is panicking now when it didn't before.

Apple gets this right -- panic logs are written to a special section of flash and recovered on the next boot and the user is offered to report it.

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@alexr ... as long as the reboot isn't cause by massive APFS fail

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@alexr I know, but you mentioned Apple. macOS/xnu panic logs can't be written if it's the filesystem causing the panic — and they weren't. Made dogfooding apfs EXTRA fun!

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@alexr As for proxmox, I'm just sorry I didn't dedicate this tower to it sooner. By far the best hypervisor/container manager I've used, commercial or otherwise. Would love it for those reasons alone, but to have zfs on top of everything, I'm gushing here.

A couple grumbles but far outnumbered by the good parts.

@alexr Can't speak to earlier platforms. Was this Open Firmware?

@alexr I was in the wrong tax bracket before ppc, but I am increasingly impressed by the engineering that went into architectures we no longer develop.

Dear Lazy Fediverse,

Anyone have some experience (good or bad) with htmx? Feels a bit like Tailwind-jQuery (for better or worse), but would love to hear some personal experience.
