Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

The primary task of the police is to protect the State and Capital against the people — you.
The rest is PR-management.

If you only washed half the dishes before having to stop, you can still write "Half the dishes" in your to-do list and check that off. It counts!

i feel like there is also not enough intersectionality when it comes to saying, "this should enrage and mobilize you." black queer people have been enraged and mobilizing for years. disabled, nonblack queer, black women, and many other marginalized people have been enraged and mobilizing for years. where is the line where those who have been doing the work are allowed one moment of grief and rest before doing the work again? this is not a one size fits all type demand.

and if this isnt already enough THE FAMILIES ARE HAVING GOFUNDMES TO PUT THEIR CHILDREN TO REST THEY NEED CROWDFUNDING TO PUT THEIR CHILDREN (WHO THE GOVERNMENT DID NOT PROTECT, WHO THE GOVERNMENT REFUSES TO PROTECT, WHO THE GOVERNMENT WILL ALWAYS ALLOW TO DIE BEFORE THEY LOSE MONEY, AND WILL NOT HELP THESE FAMILIES IN ANY CONCRETE WAY FOR THE REST OF THEIR DAYS) TO REST

like it is unconsciousable that after a school shooting. kids have to fucking go back to school. literally not even twenty four hours later. and all the children from the shooting have not even all been found. and i really cannot do this because they were so close to summer, they were so close to where maybe, for two months, these kids and teachers wouldnt have to do school shooter drills. they were so close.

like how are basketball coaches and players speaking better about this. how is the fucking president like oh how sad we should do something about this. how are we supposed to grieve if there is not enough time between traumas to find air much less take it in. i know people want rage, want action, and im trying to get there but i am so scooped out hopeless and sad in this moment and i need to be in this moment, im sorry.
Arrrrgh, so much refactoring today
This won't be news to any of the Dutch folks, but a travel tip for everybody else: if you like fantasy and fairy tales (or just generally good vibes really), then you absolutely *have* to visit this place, even if you don't like thrill rides: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzESKugOV4o
This is legit one of my favourite places in the world, for reasons that are difficult to put into words

activate-linux is now packaged for #nixos. this should give people coming from windows the authentic experience, so they should directly feel at home.
#ActivateWindows #ActivateLinux #ActivateEverything

contains code, screenreader-unfriendly
More seriously, if you're running system graphs, I *strongly* recommend adding an 'excess load average' metric, which shows you not just the load average but how much of it exceeds the available CPU cores. Below 0% = healthy system, above 0% = overloaded system. Much more representative than load averages themselves!
This is the Prometheus query I use:
(avg by(instance)(node_load1)) - (count(node_cpu_seconds_total{mode=\"idle\"}) without (cpu,mode,job))
At least it's a pretty good stress test for my scraping server I guess

Auf https://direkt.bahn.guru/ gibt es jetzt eine Filter-Option, um nur Züge des Nah- und Regionalverkehrs anzuzeigen
The performance is currently, uh, very bad: https://metrics.cryto.net/d/M6VEBtLnz/scraper?orgId=1&refresh=5s&viewPanel=5
(Yes those are minutes)
Today's scheduled project: hopefully *finally* fixing my scraper DB query performance, so that the scraper behind my datasheet search engine (https://seekseek.org) can finally run at full speed again.
