Reminder: all Libreboot machines are currently on a heavy discount, on Minifree:

https://minifree.org/

I'm the founder and lead developer of the Libreboot project. Sales fund Libreboot. Libreboot (preinstalled) is free/opensource firmware replacing proprietary BIOS/UEFI on supported hardware. I did a release recently, namely Libreboot 20241008.

Your choice of Debian Linux, other distro or a BSD.

I'm raising money for some planned work in November, hence price cut going for increased sales.

A couple of little Pascal pride stickers based on Jensen & Wirth's book cover and the screenshot in the below thread from @symbo1ics.bsky.social, which had much cuter lettering.

Yeah, sex is good, but have you ever put your hand on the control rig of your mech and softly whispered a thank you, and your mech's eyes lit up for just a second?

*stands to salute vehicle*

Friend: What are you doing?

Me: a lesbian has gone to a better place

Friend: that's a UHAUL

Me: Yes and she's leaving Indianapolis for somewhere better

You remember these glasses from your last trip to #France, I guess. Here’s the interesting story: Duralex, the manufacturer, was heading for liquidation. Investors that wanted to buy it existed, but they wanted to fire a lot of employees. So the court agreed to a different solution: create a cooperative, make Duralex workers owned. Now give them a hand and buy their glasses instead of the typical IKEA stuff, ok? :) https://eu.duralex.com/en-eu/collections/all-our-products

#TTRPG stuff bleeding into real life:

I'm a forever GM. Years ago, I was in a union negotiation with one of my players backing me up as co-rep.

I scored the biggest victory of my life as a union rep. I don't think they ever fully understood either, which made it even better.

Outside ACAS, my player says, "did they just fuck themselves?"

Me: "Maybe. Why would you think that?"

Him: "because you started using your DM-when-we're-about-to-do-something-really-stupid voice"

So there’s this company in USA that makes clothes for transmac/nb people and it’s closing because they can’t get funding to invest in more material… they release the designs with measurements so you can make your clothes and to pass on all the research they did to make shirts and trousers and jumpers that fit as you would like a cis male garment fit but they don’t because you have hips or butt or you don’t bind… I’m sharing the link.

There's a 30% chance I'll actually finish this

Are there any good discords for beginning vtubers to build friendships and connections with others? I'm looking to get to know more people in the community!

" #AI is not magic. LLMs are not sentient beings, and they won’t become sentient. And the problems with these technologies aren’t abstractions — they’re here now and we need to take them seriously today.

"'People’s lives are at stake, but not because of some super intelligent system,' [researcher Joy] Buolamwini says, 'but because of an overreliance on technical systems. I want people to understand that the harms are real, and that they’re present.'"

cringetober 5: ms paint

I have fondest memories of the version of MS Paint bundled with windows 3.1 up to 98.

i used a web-app to emulate a familiar experience.

anyway here's a chocobo that's lost in the woods

It's amusing how, after each Masto update, my feed turns into a chorus of "suck it, website boy!" as admins sort out how to override and undo this version's nasty UX surprises and questionable choices.
