Also, I'm curious why #Chroma isn't yet in #Fedora (aside from someone with more time than myself deciding to pick it up).
#AI #Linux
10 years ago, I thought Django was the pinnacle of web development. Now, I'm trying to get my websites to be static generated.
I have the real way to prevent #openssh backdoors. Never enable sshd on a system and instead go back to the old tried and true method of communicating remotely over physical RS-232 instead.
Fun fact for the history books: The guy who discovered the xz openssh backdoor and really saved #Linux's bacon this week is a #Microsoft engineer.
In today #Linux #shell adventures, did you know that [ is an executable ELF binary provided by coreutils? There's a /usr/bin/[ program in the $PATH on most Linux systems.
Check it out:

I might also pedantically argue that #Linux running on any btree filesystem is technically already running on a stateful database.

Just did my online check-in for the hotel for #SCaLE this week. The 21st Southern California #Linux Expo is almost here!

One thing is sure - whoever coined the phrase "easy as taking candy from a baby" had definitely never tried to take candy from a human baby.

I have to admit that #Matrix hasn't lived up to the interoperability promise. Integrations with Slack, Discord, IRC, etc have been complicated and rocky, and don't seem to have gotten much better since the Libera divorce. Don't get me wrong, it's still a useful service, but it's just not quite lived up to its promises.
Weird thing about getting older: Getting random cravings for restaurants or foods that were around when you were growing up that don't exist any more.
I've reached the moaning and shambling down the hallway in a bath robe stage of the man cold. 😮💨
Here are some #software languages I used to code in that I wouldn't be sad to never touch again:
* PHP
* Java
* VB .NET
To be clear, I'm not saying they shouldn't exist or that you shouldn't use or like them. More that I've done my time with them and all things being equal, I wouldn't choose these over Python, Go, etc.
Perl barely avoids making this list, but it's very occasionally still useful for me, even though I really don't like to admit it.
Timelapse of #3Dprinting a storage case for #Atari game cartridges using wood PLA filament!
#retrogaming
Thinking of forking #Android for the sole purpose of stripping out tracker URI data from share links in the clipboard.
Not serious, but almost serious..
I don't need an #Atari 2600+. I don't need an Atari 2600+. I don't need an Atari 2600+.
My #halloween costume this year!
Any questions?
