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.

today I set all the git repositories on my personal forgejo server to private because llm crawlers were thrashing my server
when you ask chatgpt a silly question to see the silly answer, or prompt midjourney or whatever for a funny image, or use copilot or claude to vibe code, you are complicit in this
It kind of baffles me how I've tried to get Storybundle to send me e-mails about new bundles several times now, and I am still not getting any.
"Not getting the spam I asked for" sure is a new one for me

I learned about the “500 mile email" bug the other night and it really is a rather amazing story. If you work with tech I think you'll really appreciate this one: https://www.ibiblio.org/harris/500milemail.html

Nobody knows anymore what an arch or a linux is, but for historical reasons it still is the only wiki documenting operating systems accurately

I’m just saying that if you think you can’t do shit because it’s “too weird,” nothing you can do will ever be as weird as the fact that we all exist at the same time together.
Do your weird little thing, friend.

Boven klinkt geloei.
En geluid van deurklink.
En gefrustreerd geklaag.
Diederik blijft proberen de slaapkamerdeur open te krijgen.
Want ooit, in tijden van Horizontale Klink, kon hij dat. Als een bruin hopje hing hij aan de klink, en duwde de deur open met zijn voeten.
Die tijden zijn voorbij.
Tijden van Verticale Klink braken aan.
Erop springen kan, maar Grootsch Wegglijden is het gevolg.
Hij heeft het heel moeilijk.
Dus er klinkt boven geloei.
En geluid van klink.
En gefrustreerd geklaag.

De hele week dacht ik 'Oh ja, waxinelichtjes, moet ik in mijn mandje gooien!'
Vandaag komen de boodschappen.
Zonder de lichtjes.

Why Not Zoidberg? 🦑
What is it with almost all temperature-controlled kettles being so expensive? A temperature sensor and PCB don't cost anywhere near that much, and that's the only meaningful difference with a non-temperature-controlled kettle...

The old Canon fd 35mm/3.5 also seems to add a bit of yellow tint to images which has some very nice characters

The web version of Outlook that my university runs now auto-corrects '1st' and '2nd' by making not the last but the first two symbols into superscript. Brilliant programming, guys. 😂

this is the correct attitude for open source projects. free software is political.

Nou, de plantaardige grillworst van de Albert Heijn is dus niet voor herhaling vatbaar.
De plantaardige eiersalade, daarentegen, is fantastisch!

Matrix, criticism of criticism, negative
I'm fine with the criticism of #Matrix on Fediverse, I do that sometimes myself in private rooms or sometimes blog posts, but holy shit, I wish that criticism didn't have as much toxicity and misinformation in it as it currently have.
On one hand there are Matrix fans who unconditionally scream how great Matrix is and can solve all world problems, and on the other there are nostalgia gremlins praising IRC over high heavens as an alternative to commercial platforms like Discord for literally everyone because Matrix is "literally unusable" or something.
Both groups are delusional IMO.
