@niamhgarvey I can relate to that 💜

I have seriously considered bluetooth trackers for my coffee cup - sadly I have yet to find one which is would be compatible with dishwasher :-).

@niamhgarvey @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd I lost a whole box of cakes all day, two days ago. Walked right past them while looking for them at least once.

@niamhgarvey @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd I explain to new folk at work that the most common and important question I will ask them is "do you know where I left my tea cup?"

Sometimes ill dramatically stop the whole kitchen and demand "can anyone see my tea??"

It's nice because it makes people giggle and gives them an easy way to stack up brownie points and hear a grateful "yes, you're awesome, thank you."

so i did something totally insane. the local electronics store was closing down and so i (and two friends) purchased THEIR ENTIRE STOCK OF INTEGRATED CIRCUITS. and today i finally finished organizing my share into these 12 cabinets. 🧵

By the way, here is some reporting from TPM about how JD Vance has been making a special interest of whipping up hatred and slander against Haitians for some months now, even before Trump brought him on as Vice Presidential candidate.

I am very unhappy that the republican party's angle in the closing days of this election is "we will bank everything on broad-spectrum attacks against Haitians, specifically". I do not know what to do about it.

@sergio_101 I'm a full time Python dev, some of my projects have been Django, but lately I feel like FastAPI is the new bees knees

Our inability to get along with everyone on THIS planet is the reason we don't have warp drive.

@Tesseks I kind of like Debian, its robustness, community and more. But Linux Mint feels more user friendly. I went for LMDE as daily driver, Linux Mint Debian Edition to come close to Debian but polished with Mint. LMDE is not as user friendly as standard Mint, for example not built in support for drivers managament. And standard Mint with Ubuntu base probably is more up to date in sw repository. It's my non-expert thoughts.

We enjoyed many holidays in Denmark without even noticing that we crossed a border.
This is freedom.

I wrote a patch for the Gnome window manager once, Mutter I believe it was, to make it programmable with Guile. Mutter had Gnome integration so that made a lot of sense to me. It was outright rejected because "we don't want our users to program their desktop" or something. Went back to sawfish/sawmill and a happy #exwm user now. Other than the odd config debacle :)

@clacke I will never stop being amazed by this --- THESE bridges

> And then there are some uncommon ones like 200 or 400 candy from Ev 1 to Ev 2

Where can I go to make this trade? Even 400 candy seems very cheap for an EV 😋

@countcol

I think, part of the reason why The Dreaded Terminal is still so prevailant in the perception of Linux is that it's just SO MUCH easier to write manuals for.

I mean, it's way more efficient to say: "run `apt install firefox` to install firefox" than "to install firefox, open the software center [screenshot], search for firefox [screenshot]", select firefox in the application list [screenshot], click install [screenshot]".

The results are the same. Why waste more time drawing a comic book when you can tell a person to just type one line in a box?

@JessTheUnstill @kevinrns @stefano @TomAoki Yes, I second that. We have companies as customers and we had no one with a hack on cloud systems. We had several ones with incidents, who run their own servers 'due to security reasons'. You need a really capable team, a CISO and SIEM solutions to keep up with the threat actors. Most companies do not want to spend some budget on any of this.
