If you spend over a decade on open source and people tell you to do better... do even better. :)

Söder begründet die Senkung der Flugverkehrssteuer tatsächlich mit Konkurrenzfähigkeit im BINNENverkehr, es ist also explizit als Begünstigung gegenüber der Bahn gemeint, wow

Days like these are really rare: where the work and effort and open communication pays off 100% and you don't even have to be involved in the discussion. The winds of change. :)

Being entirely annoyed with AI search results and "you probably meant XYZ" (geez no I did not) this new search algorithm makes crawling the web for keywords a pain and unusable for me. Switched to DuckDuckGo and disabled all AI assist so let's see if that fixes it. :)

Wie können wir eigentlich wirklich sicher sein, dass Söder keinen Fleischersatz auf seinen Fleisch-ess-Bildern isst? Frage für einen Freund.

Umfragerekorde, absolute Mehrheit in Sachsen-Anhalt in Aussicht – die AfD scheint unaufhaltsam. Doch das ist ein medialer Mythos. Was wirklich dahinter steckt: www.volksverpetzer.de/analyse/medi...

I think my favourite life lesson is this: You get what you negotiate. It's a beautiful concept of being in control of any situation.

Würde gerne wissen wie viel Rechenzeit bei Ex-Twitter mittlerweile anteilig für das Management von riesigen Block-Listen pro User verwendet wird. Kann man auch gar nicht genug blocken -- immer wieder Stuss von Accounts die 200 folgen und auch von 200 gefolgt werden... für ihren "Content"? ;)

Learned more about SONAME in the past weeks than in the last decade. Certainly living in interesting times, aren't we?

Twitter suggesting "@sama" to be someone I could be interested in is thoughtful. Now I can just block that guy without even actively looking for him. Wonder how much he paid for this advertising boost by Elon.

@fitch.bsky.social I wonder how many organizations allow their Linux/Unix admins to ssh to their cloud over the internet

In a first, cryptographic keys protecting SSH connections stolen in new attack
An error as small as a single flipped memory bit is all it takes to expose a private key.

Started the habit of blocking most ad accounts on Twitter ever since the dumb Chinese "smart stuff" shops started popping up. The interesting part is these shops are probably run by the same people but new shop names and ads are constantly being presented by Twitter. Feels mike a mass-scale scam.
