Probably not hard to guess who is my favorite book publisher ;-)

I used to order sometimes books or even a magazine subscription (Computer Music) from UK. I guess those times are over:

In addition I can no longer use a printing service with decent prices and great user experience:

https://doxzoo.com/

I'm not sure if this the best way to fight against tax evasion/paradises but I guess politicians know better 🤷 What a disappointment.

Any within-EU service that is equivalent/near in user experience when comparing to Doxzoo?

When it comes to blockchain technology, I'm happy that it is so disregarded because usually in software it is best for job security to focus on disregarded and under-evaluated technology :-)

When I started working on TPM2 everybody said to me that TPM equals to DRM.

Now people say to me that blockchains equal to shitcoins.

It is usually best to make your own analysis and decisions and ignore the group pressure. If you go with group pressure, you are just more likely to be unemployed in the long run, because there is a queue of clones of you waiting.

Does Ghidra's disassembler do linear sweep or recursive traverse?

Tehkää itsellenne ja muille palvelus ja asentakaa Signal, vaikkette aktiivisesti käyttäisikään.

Näin mahdollistatte sen, että yhä useampi voi viestitellä Signalilla Whatsapin sijaan.

Tällä tavoin Whatsappin monopoliaseman saa helpoiten murennettua, kun yhä useampaan saakin muuta kautta yhteyden.

Laittakaa lumipallo pyörimään ja pyytäkää muita tekemään samoin!

Time for some minigolf

Maybe unpopular opinion: this isn’t sustainable

If you’ve got so many users on your instance(s) that it’s costing you $4k pcm (and however many tens of thousands of dollars he claims to have spent so far) and you need to solicit money from your users/community, this is not “decentralised”

Dan needs to stop amassing users and focus on building the software. Let other admins carry the load of actually running the service

I focus on (and this time actually mean it) to other topics #FOSDEM. You can relax now :-) I rarely trigger these days but moral and ethical dishonesty is just too much for me.

Maybe I went too far but on the other hand there was like a mass campaign with absolutely zero real argument so just wanted make sure that idiocracy gets attention.

A classic text about software rasterizing. I scavenged this so that I could make something more fun than that stupid checker at some point for my test :-)

At the time made for the first gen Pentium but most of the stuff still applies:

It's still a good one if you want to fill some triangles...

January 2025’s featured mix is from a long-standing Human Spectrum DJ Mörkö-Anneli. He plays our music with a twist.. Upward. A lot 🤟😎

Not a huge hardware synth fan (I like software and do not have space) but I do have a thing for EA-1/MS-2000/Microkorg. They are kind of like "same family".

If (actually more like when) I buy a bigger house I'll get used MS-2000 :-) It's quite limited compared to e.g. JP-8000 but has tons more character.

Gaze upon him 🧡​

Karvinen does this thing where he gets up on his little behind and puts his paws in the air when he is making considerate demands. If you put your hands close enough, he'll grasp them so he can stay sitting and firmly insist. He won't let go unless you take the hands away, and thus you can jiggle the entire cat.

Every friend you save from Meta's ecosystem is one less person whose digital life can be erased at Zuck's whim.

EA-1 and BassStation are really the only legit Goa leads ;-)

303 is overrated...

Right, not a long time til 2024 edition of Rust. #rust #rustlang

I guess I'm a freedom fighter for discriminated billionaires :-)

Just wanted to add that:
