both telegram and matrix have untrustworthy cryptography, but telegram has gaslit me significantly fewer times and generally not on an ongoing basis, which is really the main thing i care about in a messenger
"it's vulnerable to IND-CCA3" anybody who can pull off that attack on me deserves whatever they get out of it. i just want a messenger that isn't built by americans who have a Single Phone Number and also doesn't gaslight me. is that too much to ask for?
@whitequark honestly, i'm a bit frustrated that ircv3 is stuck because of a lack of good frontend, a lack of will to go and implement more stuff and all that is lacking is a MLS integration in the protocol
@farcaller@whitequark hm, why not? No messaging platform is doing well from my PoV, the first one who move the needle much much further can get back IMHO?
Yes, this is legit and is something I've enlisted the NixOS community to help with. I am mysterious like that. It's a work in progress, the community members I'm working with will help me make the final selection.
@fink@matthartley yeah, it's hard to have infrastructure that's respectful of user privacy in self hosted contexts because of the whole PII stuff. It was either this or to go find some random non-updated NextCloud or Google Forms I suppose. Apologies for this.
Trying out a bunch of distros again, the overriding feeling I'm having is: wow, nobody learned anything from distri did they, why is all of packaging still so slow, why are projects that treat the OS as a single whole-ass atomic block still take like five minutes of crunching to make fetch happen?
NixOS builds being slow were always an annoyance, and I assumed bailing would be a breath of fresh air... But, really not that much :/
@danderson My uninformed ass external perception was they were using too many mounts and the kernel didn't enjoy all of that, but yeah, I am surprised reading your comments
I didn't expect that given the work that UAPI folk put outside which was more about ostree-oriented folks than Nix folks for example

We take a look at the special Linux distribution @nixos_org. This is based on the package manager called Nix & allows the entire operating system to be configured from one file. Thanks to @linus!
Usually, April's Fools is reserved for jokes, but I have a shitpost that looks like an April's Fools which is not a joke.
Unfortunately, I have more and more responsibilities in life and complicated scheduled requirements spanning across many calendars shared with SO, friends, work and etc.
To juggle with all of that has become more and more impossible, especially while trying to preserve my own energy levels and burnout.
An interesting problem in Operations Research is the one of scheduling, you have many type of scheduling.
In the case where you are trying to juggle your own todolist (I have a TaskWarrior system), it's hard to know what is the "next thing" to work on and TaskWarrior only help you with prioritization/urgency and what not.
I need a scheduler and a one that takes into account many things like burnout rate!
@danderson@astrid let's thank the gods of economical efficiency everyday
it doesn't seem like the chaotic attacker that could be so meticulous to target all distros and be stealthy as fucked has appeared or we didn't detect it
@alanc@dalias I'd imagine it'd be reasonable to modulo those generated files like the version / hash rev or would you believe more sophisticated executable generated file would be present?
