@Teaceratops it's true, this is a very North American thing, because of how warm currents, polar vortexes, and prairie winds all interact together.

About a cm of ice on everything, not 3. Still have power, but may change overnight if winds pick up.

@siddhesh_p I'd say you're having a mid-2000s crisis.

@gnomon thank you for checking! Things are icing over nicely, but still have power. We're not done with the ice storm yet, though, so fingers crossed!

@Anarcat nice! I'm not sure I'm well positioned to participate in my West Island enclave. :)

Montreal is about to be hit by a bad ice storm -- 2-3 cm of ice on everything forecasted. I hope they got it wrong, but if not, I may lose power for a few days.

May be time to invest into an ecoflow home battery and a vehicle that can do v2h.

@bagder that's a very familiar story to me (downside of receiving admin@linux.com emails). You can't do anything in this case other than hope this person is receiving attention from someone qualified.

Happy International Women's Day! Being a woman in any male dominated field (which, let's face it, is most) is hard, and that certainly includes Technology.

Don't feel discouraged! You are a part of the change, and we're here to support you 💪♀️🌎

@mcepl You don't need power plants, just the pipe bringing the water in for cooling.

OK, so this is working now after a bunch more bugfixes. I'm going to run it over the weekend, and then write a proposal for a proposed bugzilla replacement.

FYI, git-bug has a nice webui (this is running on localhost).

All of these bugs were tagged via the mailing list. See https://lore.kernel.org/tools/

It would be nice to write a bug viewer plugin for cgit, too, but this is for much, much later.

If an LLM is used for military purposes, then the datacenters hosting the LLM become legitimate military targets.

some time ago i (half) joked that the only job can replace outright is the CEO.

today i attended an earnings call where a synthetised voice of our CEO read multi-page long table of numbers from an official financial document, according to a script prepared by claude, over a single slide titled "company earnings 2025" - to a room full of employees who commuted to the office to watch it in person. there was no management present or even shown on the screen.

it was the most disturbed dystopian fucking thing i've experienced in my career of working for soul-crushing corporations.
