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 year is 2025
And the best thing
That anyone can say
To make me interested
In some new technology is:
"There's no app"

When I see a bird outside my back door just waiting around, if I have its favorite food I open the door and throw some outside.
I wish some omniscient being would just randomly make pizza or burritos appear in my life, free food given from an unknown entity beyond comprehension.

the absolute state of infosec vulnerability marketing these days
on further analysis by folks who actually understand the tech it turns out the claimed backdoor isn't a backdoor at all, it isn't even really a security issue, and has been framed in a way that is both disingenuously overhyped and also pretty racist
bravo, folks, really advancing the field

this could've actually been neat research, i.e. "here's how the ESP32 HCI debug stuff works", but there's this mental disease across infosec where everything has to be a CVSS 10 SEV1 CRITICAL IT'S ALL ON FIRE level bug or it's worthless, and it taints so much otherwise-interesting work

I do not give a damn which mental health diagnoses people want to stick onto fascists to "explain" their behaviour. None of it is useful. The problems we are dealing with are NOT created by neurotypes/intellectual or cognitive disability/trauma.
They are created by power. That's it.
Literally anyone—you, me, or the most innocent person you can recall—with power can (and often will) become evil to keep it. It really is that mundane.
Want to stop it?
Fight inequality. Divest your own power.

This is a serious question.
With the tendency of Tesla vehicles to explode into fiery infernos, how can we be sure if a reported arson attack against a Tesla is actually an arson and not just business as usual?

A very important point: not everyone can get every vaccine, even if they want to!
That's why it's important for those of us who can to be vaccinated - to help protect those who can't.
And that's also why we need multiple tools in our toolbox: vaccines AND masks AND air filters, and so on!

tyler durden: the things you own end up owning you
rustc: actually, that’s impossible
chores and ADHD
You know that thing where every time you try to do something, you spot another thing that needs doing, and then you get distracted, and *that* spawns another thing and you get distracted again, and you end up completely forgetting what you were trying to do in the first place?
Turns out that can be weaponized to deal with irregular chores like tidying up; when you do task A, and you spot task B, you *first* finish task A and *actively* remind yourself of task B continuously in the meantime, then once A is done you immediately continue on to B, which then spawns task C, and so on.
I've found it a very helpful way to overcome the "I don't know where to start" / "this is so much work that I don't have a clear picture" problem; just pick up an arbitrary item, try to store it, and trust that it will spawn the next task in the process.
Before you know it, you've taken a significant bite out of your todo list, despite not actively tracking what you're doing. Because it usually doesn't really matter *what* you do, just *that* you do something, anything. And you never need to remember more than one 'next' task at a time.
Ik wil gewoon een stukje alu, waarom is dit zo moeilijk
Tientallen aluminium profielen, maar een T-track, ho maar. Meeste dat erop lijkt is een gordijnrail en dat heeft dan natuurlijk weer geen standaard maat.
Well, that's a first; I've run across a woodworking YouTuber who makes a point of a) constantly repeating the need for PPE, and b) visually showing that the powertool is unplugged by holding the cord and plug, every time they demonstrate some kind of dangerous failure mode.
Glad to see it, wish it were more common.
Hoe krijgt de Gamma het toch iedere keer weer voor elkaar om het ding dat ik nodig heb niet in het assortiment te hebben?
