Après 1 semaine de pluie, j’ai le sentiment que le panneau pijuice 6W est insuffisant en situation nuageuse. Je fais d’autres tests car mardi la pluie sera de retour ! J’ai aussi un panneau 9W 6V voltaic-systems à tester par le suite.

In-reply-to » What's that thing called when everyone on a social media platform (hardly matters which one) all post the same sort of thing. It all sounds oh so wonderful, or all so dramatic, everyone claps and cheers and thumbs up or whatever. What's that thing called? There's a term for it hmmm 🧐

@prologic@twtxt.net

  1. The “Story of my life” (the less serious answer)
  2. Being “The Black Sheep” from the old tale ? (the serious answer)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh! Thank you for the link! I’m checking it right away!
I hope I don’t get slapped with a “HTTP/1.1 426 Upgrade Required” there as well.

As for Netflix and Co. I can do without for the time being. I guess I have binge watched enough content I feel like I miss missing it. 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Oh, That sounds delicious! B’Saha![1]
I’m Glad you’ve had quite the productive! All I remember of mine is three chapters of an old novel at the coffee shop aaand … Now I’m here, in front of a computer. Everything in between is just Blank 😅

[1] B’saha: Moroccan word for “With health!” (a literal translation) usually used as an equivalent for the French expression “Bon Appétit!” but also used as “Congratulation!”

Voidlinux : mes retours sont très positifs. 3 points : 1 - les paquets sont rapidement publiés, la vuln du paquet xz a donc été rapidement installée. 2 - Suite install de openssl en v3-3, authent 802.1x HS avec wpa_suppliant. J’ai dû rollback. 3 - Sur laptop HS mon écran scintille parfois quand la souris passe vers le bas de l’écran, étrange.

Been clearing out my pod a bit and blocking unwanted domains that are basically either a) just noise and/or b) are just 1-way (whose authors never reply or are otherwise unaware of the larger ecosystem)

Let me know if y’all have any other candidates you’d like me to add to the blocked domain list?

In-reply-to » @bender I don't mind the character limit. If I hit it and I still have more to say, it's a good reminder that I should probably write a note instead. I like to POSSE anything that might have value outside of the current conversation.

@mckinley@twtxt.net, in your blog, I think a “line-heigh” of 1.5 (if I remember correctly you are setting it on the “body” on CSS) will make it more legible.

I finally found the NASM assembler.

https://nasm.us/index.php

I had heard that name before, many times, but somehow never looked into it. Weird. 🤨🤔

This is the kind of program I was looking for.

  1. It is free software. Especially in the DOS ecosystem, free/libre software is a very scarce resource.
  2. It’s a small command line program, not a huge behemoth.
  3. Documentation appears to be well written.
  4. It can even cross-compile DOS binaries from Linux.

There’s something really annoying me on #openbsd httpd: to set custom headers, one need to use relayd. Yes, it works, but it is so complex for this task. And it breaks logs for analysis with goaccess or webalizer: the forwarded log format put the original IP at the end, but there is still 127.0.0.1 at the beginning :/. httpd should be able to set headers. ‘hsts’ instruction already does

Pinellas County - Long Run: 16.66 miles, 00:09:16 average pace, 02:34:24 duration
whew, rough plan was 3 miles warm-up, then 1 mile on/off at 8:30 pace, then cool down the rest of the way. little bit fast for some intervals, and boy did that bridge wipe me out (the third interval?). during the cool down had to stop to find tissues and also going up the final bridge. not trying to kill myself being i still have parental duties with it being christmas eve and all. overall it was a great outing if i must say so.

Today’s Advent of Code puzzle was rather easy (luckily), so I spent the day doing two other things:

  • Explore VGA a bit: How to draw pixels on DOS all by yourself without a library in graphics mode 12h?
  • Explose XMS a bit: How can I use more than 640 kB / 1 MB on DOS?

Both are … quite awkward. 😬 For VGA, I’ll stick to using the Borland Graphics Interface for now. Mode 13h is great, all pixels are directly addressable – but it’s only 320x200. Mode 12h (640 x 480 with 16 colors) is pretty horrible to use with all the planes and what not.

As per this spec, I’ve written a small XMS example that uses 32 MB of memory:

https://movq.de/v/9ed329b401/xms.c

It works, but it appears the only way to make use of this memory is to copy data back and forth between conventional memory and extended memory. I don’t know how useful that is going to be. 🤔 But at least I know how it works now.

In-reply-to » Day 2, Part 1 and Day 2, Part 2 of #AdvenOfCode all done and dusted 😅

@xuu@txt.sour.is Ah, you went with the “scanning” approach as well. I did that, too.

It’s quite surprising to see (imho) how many people on reddit started substituting strings (one becomes 1 etc.). That makes the puzzle much harder by introducing nasty corner cases.

(Maybe I was just lucky this time to pick the correct approach right from the start. 🤣 Or maybe it’s a bit of experience from doing past AoC events …)

More data contradicting the existence of “echo chambers”. As I’ve argued many times before, the concept of an echo chamber or information bubble is not real. The podcast below is an interview of an author of a study where they actually intervened and changed the information diet of 20,000 people (with consent!), then surveyed them after three months. They observed essentially no changes to the study subjects’ beliefs and attitudes. They also observed that the typical person, while they tend to gravitate towards people with similar political leanings, only get about 50% of their content from such like-minded people. They get the rest from neutral sources and maybe 20% from non-like-minded people.

Varied information diet + No change in attitudes when information diet is forced to be different = no echo chamber.

In-reply-to » How is everyone finding GitHub CoPilot? 🤔 Good / Bad ? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net

  1. It’s criminal: Copilot was only possible because of massive theft of other peoples’ work (no compensation or even acknowledgement to any of the developers whose code was used to create Copilot)
  2. It’s positioned to put software developers out of work or so fully de-skill them that they no longer know how to code anything but prompts (after which come corporate-justified salary and benefits decreases)

Don’t use it. No one should ever use it. You’re destroying your own future as a software developer by leaning on and supporting these things.

Experts warn ‘green growth’ in high income countries is not happening, call for ‘post-growth’ climate policies
The emission reductions in the 11 high-income countries that have “decoupled” CO2 emissions from Gross Domestic Product (GDP) fall far short of the reductions that are necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C or even just to “well below 2°C” and comply with international fairness principles, as required by the Paris Agreement, according to a paper published in The Lancet Planetary Health j … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » @prologic I don't understand what you're saying. podman works with TLS. It does not have the "--docker" siwtch so you have to remove that and use the exact replacement commands that were in that github comment.

@prologic@twtxt.net Change your script to this:

#!/bin/sh

set -e

alias docker=podman

if [ ! command -v docker > /dev/null 2>&1 ]; then
  echo "docker not found"
  exit 1
fi

mkdir -p $HOME/.docker/certs.d/cas

@prologic@twtxt.net what do you mean when you say “Docker API”? There are multiple possible meanings for that. podman conforms to some of Docker’s APIs and it’s unclear to me which one you say it’s not conforming to.

You just have to Google “podman Docker API” and you find stuff like this: https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/podman-rest-api

What is Podman’s REST API?

Podman’s REST API consists of two components:

  • A Docker-compatible portion called Compat API
  • A native portion called Libpod API that provides access to additional features not available in Docker, including pods

Or this: https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-system-service.1.html

The REST API provided by podman system service is split into two parts: a compatibility layer offering support for the Docker v1.40 API, and a Podman-native Libpod layer.

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net hello @prologic@twtxt.net here’s another feed that’s spewing multiple copies of the same post. This one above is repeated 8 times. @awesome-scala-weekly@feeds.twtxt.net now has 13 copies of each post every week. This definitely looks like a bug in whatever code is generating these feeds, because the source feeds don’t have multiple copies of the original posts:

I forget whether I filed an issue on this before, but can you tell me where I should do that?
