I’ve been trying to convince leadership I work for @siderolabs.com to shut down our X account

I created the bsky account last year hoping that it would get more followers than X as a final reason we don’t need X anymore

If some of y’all could follow that account it’ll help with my case
I've said for years that Twitter has become nothing but a hate site and a vector for harassment.

And now it's a doxxing tool.

Get the fuck off of Twitter, now. And pressure the organizations you work with to get off.

It's a danger to everyone's safety.
NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.

Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

why is my DHCP server allocating an address correctly to my WiFi interface, yet my ethernet interface is coming up empty?

_combs through DHCP server configuration_

_reads `ip` manual_

_reads `NetworkManager` manual_

_20 minutes later ..._

_plugs ethernet cable in_

The best summary that I have seen about this was about ten years ago from a blogger calling herself "Autistic Abby". I don't know if she originated it, but she's 100% correct. It's why small men crave authority, because they think it will make others respect them when they have earned none.

Wonderful question. 3 possible answers here.

5 word: "Usually yes, except in returns"

50 word: "+ Also consider that unsealed traits' return values are invariant, so it's breaking there too. Also some subtleties around associated types etc. [...]"

5000 word: expect a blog post in early 2026.
tangential question: is a type changing from ?Sized to Sized a breaking change in terms of SemVer?

hmmm, lots of job postings with "all remote team" but weirdly limited by "applicants must live in the USA"

why not "must live in a timezone that overlaps with these timezones" ?

i've been mucking about with calico on my #homelab #kubernetes cluster, and it took me far far too long to visit the whisker console: docs.tigera.io/calico/lates...

this is unbelievably helpful for debugging firewall rules

i'm tempted to switch to calico on my non-cluster systems now

Let’s make it popular among the cis folk to change names from time to time cos it’s metal as fuck. Especially if you were born in the 1900s.

“Who… who are you?!”

“I have had many names over millennia…”

Can we please stop calling it a bike shed? I keep my motorcycle and my scooter there too. I think "vehicle storage shed" would be a much better name, but I'm willing to discuss this for as long as it takes for everyone to feel like we have an accurate name.

#Prusa3D #CoreOne assembled from kit ( www.prusa3d.com/product/prus... ) in roughly 36 hours, including 5 hours of sleep and frequent toddler-herding

Quite fun and satisfying

I did make a few mistakes, but wholly my own, and avoidable by reading the actual instructions

I've been noticing some delamination (layer separation), but only on solid infill and top layers, and only on larger surfaces

There are no noticeable issues on short lines, so I think this is something to do with acceleration, which I didn't realise was a thing
