Whoever called it "ipv8" missed a golden opportunity to call it "ipv6-7".

@ljrk I don't get the reference, probably due to my sheltered North American existence. :)

EU traffic to lore.kernel.org is now served by two OVH-hosted nodes, one in Strasbourg, another in Warsaw.

Huge thanks to OVH for their support!

I had the nerdiest and most dad-jokiest dream. In the dream, we got new neighbours who had a college-aged daughter. When we invited them over for cookies and tea, I started asking the daughter what she was majoring in. She said she was studying linguistics. I then asked what area specifically (since it happens to be a nerdy hobby of mine). She said she was particularly interested in verbs (look, this was a dream, okay?).

"Verbs?" I asked, a bit confused.
"Yes, specifically the indefinite tense."
"That sounds very specific," I remember saying.
"Yes, well, I want to thoroughly research the split infinitive."

I woke up because I was laughing.

@arichtman I thought brew was a "try to make Darwin suck less" sort of thing?

Needed to reinstall my secondary workstation, so picked Bluefin to try it out. Hopefully, I'm not too old for it, because... brew? ujust?

@KasTasMykolas Okay, whoever is in charge of this whole thing in (checks his math) 24 years will hopefully not skip version 13.0 :)

This post on post-quantum cryptography sent to the gnupg-users list is both amusing and insightful:

@ljs I hope it wasn't me! If it was me, I'm sorry -- it was intended as a friendly arsing around sort of thing.

Apparently Vogue magazine is suing a dog-fashion magazine called Dogue: https://people.com/vogue-publisher-conde-nast-suing-parody-dog-fashion-magazine-dogue-11930022

Dogue has a circulation of < 100 and is free online. Also, it's about dogs. Having read the latest issue, it's also absolutely adorable. I'm happy to help Streisand this nonsense: https://thedoguemagazine.com/

I don't often tell someone to RTFM, but when I do, they may have deserved it. ;)
