VS Code is unjust and should be avoided. I recommend GNU Emacs, Kate, or Geany.

Fortunately, our four felines haven't discovered the fun of a Christmas tree yet. They remain totally disinterested in the shiny ornaments and the tall tree inside the house.

@whuffo Moki is usually disinterested. She's a shy and docile cat. HOWEVER, once in awhile something catches her eye and she will do something strange or destructive.

Over the weekend, the GreenPill podcast dropped this conversation I had with one of the governance technologists I admire most, former Taiwan digital minister Audrey Tang: pod.link/1609313639/episode/NWโ€ฆ

It is pretty sci-fi. But in times like these, sci-fi is at least part of what we need.

in reply to Nathan Schneider

I remember attending a talk by Audrey Tang, where they talked about how the they and the TW government went after people spreading "COVID misinfo". They started off well, countering it with more speech. But then, Audrey was vague about what happened afterwards, hinting at something but not saying exactly what.
I don't trust people like that w.r.t. governance.

The Jolla Phone could be a valuable alternative to Android, especially now that Android is moving toward a closed-source model. However, Jolla will need significant support from the community, as most users tend to gravitate toward mainstream platforms. Let's keep an eye on it and see how things unfold.



We finally know what the D in systemd stands for! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

after system five was always written in roman letter system V it can only mean
system 500 ( due to 500 services for the smalles Linux ever). However 500 by the romans was a D ( surprised?)

I always assume it was a French reference. "Systรจme D" means that you make it as you can.

D is for "dรฉbrouille" implying lake of means and not the best results but a lot of ingeniosity (is it a word? Smart hacks) in the process.
