Please don’t…

Can we organize and force the Linux Foundation and/or OFAC to exclude open source software from these sanctions? Is anyone doing that yet?

Does anyone have a comparison of Flipt vs Unleash? https://www.getunleash.io/

I like the collaborative nature of https://www.wikitree.com/

This video is entertaining and relevant to the whole plastic recycling scam too: https://youtu.be/PJnJ8mK3Q3g?si=nnpGsDwOJoGspfwZ

I enjoyed getting the IPv6 certification from Hurricane Electric. Everyone should learn about it! https://ipv6.he.net/

Why not use bash-completion? The running example you gave is dangerous - you could end up running one or more of the wrong executables.

FOSS or GTFO!

Daniel Suarez “Daemon” series was fantastic!

At work the only option I had was to get a Macbook, but I don’t like MacOS, so I installed UTM and I run Arch Linux (ALARM for aarch64) as my desktop. It’s functional, but of course I’d rather have a beat up, 5 year old Dell or Thinkpad so I could just run Arch natively.

I just watched this last week. An old housemate of mine filmed this way back in the day, haha. How bizarre to see it popping up on here out of the blue like this…

Home Alone, hehe

I love the giant, inexpensive tins of ceylon tea at my local international market. If you can afford it, buy a bottle of rose water to add to the tea. Perfection. And of course, don’t throw away the leaves - steep them again - the second steeping is even better than the first one.

Watching memes and weird videos with my kids and wife every evening before bed: Daily Dose of Internet, People are Awesome, Failarmy, pwnisher, 131216, You Suck at Cooking, Kotte Animation, etc.
