Hey #mastobikes friends, my rear tyre's sidewall has developed a hernia. Is this salvageable? (Compass 52mm smooth tyres)

You are excused from debugging anything today. It's the geomagnetic storm. Go have a drink or a nap or something.

#photography friends, are these lenses any good? https://brightinstar.com/ The prices seem ridiculously low? 35mm f/0.95 for 190 bucks?

I am slowly starting to understand how fontconfig's configuration works... and getting this urge to REWRITE ITS FUCKING DOCUMENTATION.

Just think of all the CVEs safely stored in GitHub's Arctic Code Vault. If we need to reconstruct civilization from it, we'll at least have fun fixing them again.

Librsvg 2.58.90 is out! This is the first release that uses Meson instead of Autotools.

This a very early ALPHA release so that distros have time to change their build scripts.

Gente de #México - si quieren algo con qué darle lata a su ayuntamiento, acaban de publicar la NOM 004-SEDATU-2023 ESTRUCTURA Y DISEÑO PARA VIAS URBANAS.

La gente de la Liga Peatonal ha hecho un choooooorro de trabajo para que esto sea posible. 😎

Slack has the audacity to pop up a window titled, "Want a productivity boost?" 🙃

At some point the code is more or less Done(tm), and you spend the rest of your life fucking with the build system, as people's opinions change on how it should work.

I just found someone in YouTube who has exactly the same voice as someone else whom I actually know in person. This feels so strange.

Had to reboot my VPS today as it was inaccessible.

"journalctl -b -1" said that boot wasn't available, so I did "journalctl --file=/var/log/journal/ugly_hex_number/some-file.journal"

And yesterday, dnf OOMed in it. No idea if it is related.

Is there a description of when the xz backdoor would execute / what it would do? I understand it is something in openssh / libsystemd but I'd like to know what triggers it.

OK, the Mad Max Fury Road soundtrack is actually pretty good for doing releases.

Dear C programmers,

/* The following static variable is declared 'volatile' to avoid a
possible multithread problem in the function get_charset_aliases. If we
are running in a threaded environment, and if two threads initialize
'charset_aliases' simultaneously, both will produce the same value,
and everything will be ok if the two assignments to 'charset_aliases'
are atomic. But I don't know what will happen if the two assignments mix. */

Please. FFS.

How times change. Long ago programs tended to have fixed limits for things. Then the GNU Coding Standards came along and recommended avoiding arbitrary limits, and using things like dynamic allocation instead.

Now that everything is under attack and fuzzing and etc., we are putting limits back in everything. Flexible software, able to take advantage of huge machines, but with safety valves.

Time to put on some loud music and make a couple of releases.
