Everyone knows I'm a watch geek, but I've now taken it one step further and added a watch wearing log to this site.

@kev Good to see that there are people out there with an even bigger watch problem! 😉

Great idea! Once you've got the numbers, it should theoretically become easier to let a watch go.

It's nice that Scarlett Johansson can hire a legal team for that. Meanwhile the rest of us just has to live with all of the things they've created being used to train those AIs without seeing a cent.

@mykhaylo let’s see if it works like that. But I doubt it. Would be nice though.

An American friend of mine thinks beans on toast is disgusting. So to all none Brits (as we find it delicious)…is it disgusting to you?

Side note - I find it astonishing that someone from the country that invented “cheese in a can” can find this “dish” disgusting. 😂

@kev I’m from Germany and just had beans on toast for dinner. 🤷🏻‍♂️

All the people disappointed with NixOS right now should consider putting their energy into Guix instead.

I would describe The Guix project as "allergic to corporate entanglement."

@daviwil Has something specific happened? Why are people disappointed with NixOS?

@nixCraft 1998: PHP is dead, to me 😁

@j3j5 Uhm…
Year of publication:

  • PHP: 1995
  • Python: 1991

Lisp Badge LE, the Arduino based self-contained computer that runs uLisp, has gone viral on tech sites:

This Lisp machine in a pocket is pretty cool but the product listing of the preassembled unit is missing key information, the price:

@amoroso Oh, that’s interesting! But technically it’s not really a Lisp machine,right? But very cool regardless!

@jack @jstepien Every time I read something like this my brain reminds me that might be the only solution and most probably too few people might go down that route.

@bkil One of the problems is: As soon as you allow img tags, ad companies will start to include transparent images to track you. You give them a nice tool, they exploit it. Once scripting is allowed, all the flood gates are open and we are doomed again.

Isn’t someone out there working on a modern version of ?

@brejoc@fosstodon.org avatar

@amoroso I'm talking about the real deal. Lisp running directly on the machine with garbage collection baked in. Turtles all the way down I guess.

@amoroso Bummer! But thanks anyway.

Im thinking about replacing my NAS with . But I’m not sure about one usecase. My NAS serves NFS storage to a KVM host. On the NFS are qcow images. The performance isn’t great but perfectly acceptable for what I do. Would that still work with Glusterfs or would the constant sync of data in the background be too much?

brejoc,
@brejoc@fosstodon.org avatar

@vwbusguy Thanks for your feedback. I also noticed the conversation you started around glusterfs here on Mastodon. Looks like it's causing trouble sometimes. Not sure if I'd really like to use Ceph, since the setup seems to require a bit more involvement. How about ocfs2? Any experiences with that? Primarily I need a file storage. Only secondarily a qemu vm image storage.

Oh, nice, looks like the Fosstodon instance (@fosstodon) silenced my profile.

I guess it tells you more about “FOSS”todon than anything else that they chose to block a human rights activist/privacy advocate who wakes up and works at a not-for-profit on free and open software every day. Maybe if I were to work at Google and hack on a hobby open source project in the evenings I’d be acceptable?

smh

Edit: “silenced” not “blocked (i.e., suspended)”

@oceane Union busting? Are we talking about IBM or Red Hat now? And what exactly is being busted?
