It's also fucking hilarious when you have an environment variable with a non-UTF-8 byte in it.

I flew it once, while on book tour, because it was the only way to get out of Oakland for my next destination. It was cheap, uncomfortable and dispiriting, no pun initially intended, and I was glad not to have had to fly the airline again. Now I won't ever have to. It's not a great situation for people who relied on the airline or its employees, but also not a surprise.

Anyone know a good way to bulk-buy lithium battery packs to charge phones in the US? Unhoused folks need them since opportunities to charge are limited, as is the battery life of the kinds of phones they can afford. Quantity 10-ish, but if anyone in #Pittsburgh wants to go in on a bigger buy I'd be down.

@adele a ajouté la localisation en français (ainsi que en, es et de) dans son client web #Fediverse léger #SmolFedi

C'est une appli web écrite en php, sans javascript côté client et qui fonctionne plutôt bien. La dernière version, en français si ça vous intéresse, est vraiment pas mal. Ça s'installe sur n'importe quelle stack web PHP/sqlite. Vous pouvez y jeter un œil sur l'instance de demo : https://smolfedi.pollux.casa/

The coreutils Rust rewrite story is pretty funny.

Coreutils are tools like rm, mv, mkdir, etc. Unlike binutils, this isn't a fertile ground for memory safety bugs. But, the rewrite was completed, and in the spirit of progress, Canonical decided to switch.

But do you know what coreutils are a fertile ground for? Race conditions around file creation, deletion, permission setting, and so on. The original code accounted for decades of hard-learned lessons in that space. The Rust rewrite did not:

PS. I'm not dunking on Rust. It's just that... starting over from scratch has its hidden costs.

A long time ago in a comic strip far, far away…

#sundaecomics #starwars #MayThe4th #maythe4thbewithyou #webcomics

A four-panel comic strip parody of the "I am your father" scene from The Empire Strikes Back, reimagined in a cartooning context. Panel 1: Luke Skywalker  shouts, "But you can't be my father! My father was a great cartoonist!" Panel 2: Darth Vader stands on a platform as Luke clings to a railing. Vader says, "No one backed my crowdfunding campaign, my son." The young man screams, "NOOO!" Panel 3: Vader says "Join me and together we can create a comic strip more powerful—" but before he can finish his thought, Luke jumps from the railing, shouting "NEVEEEEEER!" Vader looks down, saying, "He jumped?! Dang, that's hardcore." Panel 4: In a separate scene, Vader leans towards two Imperial officers, holding out a newspaper. Vader says, "Hey, you guys seen the latest issue of The Imperial Gazette? I don't know who this Garth Nader guy is but his comics are freaking hilarious!" Comic by Nathan Olsen. Sundae Comics.
