This is the coolest way to view markdown files I've ever discovered:

lowdown -stman somefile.md |man -l -

#markdown #man #mandoc

That's right, I also use lowdown to convert my blog into gemini: gemini://tilde.pink/~rldane/gemlog

It's not a perfect conversion by far, but it gets the job (mostly) done. ;)

@rl_dane Very cool! Just to share for others, from `apt show lowdown`, "Lowdown is a Markdown translator producing HTML5, roff documents in the ms and man formats, LaTeX, gemini, and terminal output."

Arnold Schwarzenegger reminds us that he is, deep down, a right-wing Republican. Don't buy his "democratic principles" bullshit for a second as he condemns California's essential-to-pass response to Republican election rigging.

Xcode 26 appears to still have the "super autocomplete" that I mostly liked, letting me ignore the Claude/ChatGPT coding assistance if I want to. (They're not very good with Swift in my understanding/experience.)

The San Mateo Bridge, spanning the San Francisco Bay just south of SFO Airport, is relatively unremarkable except for its seemingly endless length. Occasionally known locally as the "S&M Bridge" for its often painful traffic congestion, looked at from the right distance, it can appear rather serine.

It's weird how all these companies are firing people for being hostile to fascists instead of firing fascists for being hostile to everyone.

Next month, Microsoft will begin automatically installing the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows devices outside of the EEA region that have the Microsoft 365 desktop client apps, Bleeping Computer writes.

"The Microsoft 365 Copilot app integrates the AI-powered Copilot assistant with Microsoft 365 suite apps, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, as well as other features like Notebooks and AI agents.

"Redmond also advised admins to notify their organizations' helpdesk teams and users before the app is forcibly installed on their devices "to reduce confusion and support requests."

"The rollout will start in early October and be completed by mid-November; however, the Microsoft 365 Copilot app will not be installed on systems within the European Economic Area (EEA)."

The new AI mantra: You want it. You get it. We got what you need. You ain't gotta sweat it; we're gonna make you bleed.

🤦‍♂️ Why didn't I know about Masto-FE (🦥 flavour) before?

I've been searching for weeks for a good web client for my #GoToSocial instance – and then I finally actually read the text on the login page. 🙄

Classic case of missing the obvious! 🌳

So I quickly set up a new container with #MastoFE in #Proxmox and... nice! 🚀

Really like it! It's the familiar Mastodon web client (which is pretty good), but fully optimized for #GTS.

Running #selfhosted from my #homelab as usual - #privacy matters too much to trust anybody else.

Meet Ahmed Osama, a 36 years old English translator from Gaza. He was blessed with a family, with his wife Areej and his four children.

His son Mohammed had to undergo four surgeries for his injuries on his leg and head. After all of this, Ahmed is trying to be there for Mohammed and offer him a future filled with love and security, while helping his relatives.
