Nerd flex as @bazzite.gg and projectbluefin.io slide into the top 10 over the past 30 days.

We're hoping to help ignite more attention around using brew on linux. Check out getaurora.dev too!

I watched one of my coworkers play Wordle over lunch and I may or may not have used AI and told him the result after he almost left the NY Times out of disappointment. Turns out, the word wasn't precisely correct, but it was enough for him to isolate the real answer.

Proof nobody uses Surface Books, at work today:

1: Wow your computer looks a lot like a Mac!
2: No, unfortunately it's a Windows.

Imagine my shock to my gamer brother saying "We need something other than the mouse, but something between a controller too. Something like those tablets that Osu! players have, but closer to a mouse. It's weird to rest your wrist on a plastic thing just to look around."

What's more spooky than Halloween? DaVinci Resolve crashing in davincibox every couple minutes and not displaying CUDA H264 or AV1 export on Fedora 43!

This reeks of enshittification making it free, but sure, nullify the @affinity V2 license I never used.

So after 4 hours and months of wandering of testing stupid things in my nginx.conf, I have come to the conclusion the default nginx config is broken, so I deleted all the default files, and stole somebody else's on GitHub.

Pop quiz question: Trafotin is no longer getting 502 errors and is now getting 520-521 errors. According to Cloudflare's docs, it's supposedly because his nginx is server is misconfigured. Testing the nginx.conf shows that the configuration is working. What does Trafotin need to do?

The servers were deployed a few weeks ago. However, our next app update had unexpected bugs, delaying its release.

As a result, updates for all apps have been delayed since. We apologize for the delay and hope to resolve it by the end of the week. Thank you for your patience!
Development on our roadmap is progressing smoothly. Our next app and server releases are undergoing final testing before deployment.

We hope to make an announcement soon about what Android's recently announced developer verification requirements mean for Accrescent. Stay tuned!

Today has to be the definition of digital snow day. AWS is down, so we're cut off from some of our cloud workflows. Our office internet went down. At least Outlook is still working, but I'm checking out early...

Most asinine thing I've heard all day: "SELinux was made by the NSA, I can understand why someone wouldn't want to use that."

So all those people out there using Ghidra, you should stop using it because the NSA made it.

New user to Linux: I'm leaving Windows 10. How do I pick a new Linux distro?

What most Linux users say: You could go with Distro A, or Distro B if you're into gaming, or Distro C if you're into development...

What they need to hear: Just pick this. It's great.

You know I'm messed up when I burst in peels of laughter when I visit old links of Microsoft videos for reference and find out Microsoft privated the videos.

I'm so annoyed when I learned PowerPoint has an additional setting to change the primary monitor in the Slideshow panel of the ribbon, but turns out, Microsoft commits some hackery to change not only where the window is, but also the orientation of your monitors.

Boy we live in strange times when you read meeting notes and someone on our board attached a NotebookLM audio "podcast" with AI voices talking to each other about the notes.

Somehow I got involved with some coworkers at lunch and the discussion came down to someone saying "Bill Gates is one of the richest people alive and he controls all the technology. They're going to be building a T-1000 with those AI of theirs."

Mental Outlaw made an inaccurate video. A couple actually. Plus some announcements for the next 2 months.
