I don't actually need but I mean :-) Can't get over these. Have been stalking them for couple of years already (with trousers on).

I do own MiSTeR FPGA so there is a "business reason" to get one.

#Ardour is getting a tracker interface. Everybody says that #MIDI sucks in Ardour. I don't know because never used it. Maybe it is improving

@ljs Totally gets how little there is bandwidth for a maintainer to read nonsense prose and look at patches that do bunch of shit here and there. All so well scoped and digestible form. That is so rare that I have to say this public out loud!

@ljs I just reviewed bunch of Oracle patches, a patch set from Eric Biggers :-) I appreciate how sound he is splitting his work. A person who I can say that it is pleasure to review anything he puts out. So points on that to Oracle too 👍

I like to watch sometimes what Casey has been up to. Dude is the best show of #Linux conferences IMHO (no matter what the topic): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7cUnID7vFs

@vbabka fuck no xD i contribute, review and test code for free already. I mean who individual stupid enough to pour dimes to an org creamed with cash by literally all of multi-billion corps of the valley...

There was just link "Linux Foundation ID" (in a legit LF site, had to now check the certificates), which brought me to https://openprofile.dev/ where I created an account and then it started to push me MS services.

This discussions makes me feel like that I stepped into scam/phishing site by accident, and that is what literally happened ;-) Glad I did not put my credit card information anywhere. Next week probably I'm like a diamond sponsor together with AMD, Microsoft and others.

I did not even know that it had something do on giving money before you told me :D Just was account-curious...

@vbabka I actually still don't know what it even is. Went there and it literally had nothing.

@vbabka Well... No! I actually did not know what it is. It was advertised in some page so I thought I will join :D So you are probably right. Looks like something I'm never going to login again.

@pinkforest Meanwhile in Finland home appliances executed a successful DoS attack against Nordea, which like maybe even biggest financial institution in Scandinavia 🙃 I'd like IoT to be more secure but on the other hand this live comedy brings so many laughs that I dunno really...

Spent a fair chunk of the day digging into .deb packaging. Got the thing to build, which to be fair was no small feat in itself, HOWEVER the resulting .debs had no useful files in it - ok that should be an easy fix right?

Great now I'm running into trying to convince the dh (debhelper) system actually install the python wheel that gets built into the right place and actually put those bits into the package - and for the life of me I cannot find a good example and/or docs on this. To say it's frustrating is a bit of an understatement.

To flip this on it's side: I've had RPMs for this particular thing done 3 months ago, and didn't take nearly as long to figure out what it was trying to do.

*sigh*

Do I know any deb maintainers I can ask stupid questions of?

It should be renamed as "Microsoft individual contributor account" if this had any honesty. All services that it tries link into are from Microsoft. Get real.

🥳 My vanilla repositories for [1] started shipping[2] kernels with aka support. 🥳

[1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories
[2] 6.12-pre and later only obviously, as the latest stable series does not support it out-of-the-box

I disregard #Linux Foundation "individual contributor account" because it tries to enforce LinkedIn in the registration. It's either link now or "setup later...". What is this? What if I just plain say: fuck off #LinkedIn, how's that? It tries to imply eventual joining to a forum owned by a large commercial entity.

Please, fix this ASAP. It is ridiculous.
