did bluesky reset the “Require alt text before posting” setting??

i don’t know when or why i would have turned it off

interesting chip tho. it’s unfortunate you can’t really design a real project / product around it bc it’s gonna be impossible to source in any significant quantity it seems

reading the “Risk & Challenges” section on crowdsupply these days be like… 😪

upsetting both sides by calling it AGI (artificial generative intelligence)

please do, i’d love to hear your take!
after years of KiCAD I am using altium at work again and there isn’t much of a gap anymore. sure, altium has a lot more supplychain focused integrations and when you need that you *need* that.
for just the CAD part, you are not missing out on a lot with KiCAD

Like https://github.com/i3/i3/pull/6564 for example Such diffs will be applied by patch(1) (also git-am(1)) as part of the code change! This is how a sleep(1) made it into i3 4.25-2 in Debian unstable.

i guess @faited.bsky.social and octo octa just do that to girls; no matter the age

i only see her once a year when i'm traveling Europe; and i figured this would be a good (and the only) opportunity for her to meet my US friends & chosen family

i did not expect her to suddenly really be into Drum and bass 😂

last summer i took my mom to her first music festival and now she told me how excited she is to go back this year with her boyfriend 🥹

my housemates recommended giving it a name but i think that might just cause more emotional damage once it is ready to be consumed

...aaaand it's dead, due to neglect :c

(although this entry is more "Crackhead Sales"... doesn't have the same ring to it, does it now?)

oh gotchu, i was wondering if there was a secret use case of dial calipers i didn't know about that someone buying their first pair should consider.

any good calipers are good calipers but bad calipers might be worse than no calipers

100 percent agree on having good calipers, but why *dial* calipers specifically? i feel like especially if you dont use them everyday, readability and being able to easily take incremental measurements are arguments for a nice pair of digital calipers?

Sometimes I torture the FreeCAD constraint solver, just to feel something...

This detachable robotic hand design, reminiscent of "Thing" from The Addams Family, enhances both manipulation and locomotion - overcoming some limitations of traditional human-like hands! 🧪

i'll make sure to be extra unemployed* tomorrow

*working on personal & open source projects

this is the first time since i can remember that my entire household is joining a strike (both white and blue collar), and i don't think i've ever gotten this many newsletter emails from random businesses to let me know they would be closed tomorrow

Grafana dashboard showing the past 7 days of space weather. In the past week, there's been a G1 geomagnetic storm on 4 days.

Kp of 5 is pretty tame, just barely a G1.
impressive tho to have four days with those in the past week

:o what's that color theme??

rly happy with my Zebra. well worth the extra $$ to have working CUPS

from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiMux: "In 2018, journalistic group Investigate Europe released a video documentary via German public television network ARD that claimed that the majority of city workers were satisfied with the operating system, with council members insinuating that the reversal was a personally motivated decision by mayor Dieter Reiter. Reiter denied that he had initiated the reversal in gratitude for Microsoft moving its German headquarters from Unterschleißheim back to Munich."

"compatibility issues" between Microsoft's lobbying and the mayor's integrity, yes

*40k lines.
i think she’d have preferred 40,000 limes

meanwhile my roommate complained about a PR at work the other day that was 40k limes of slop code assigned to her as a single reviewer so… companies clearly do spent a fortune on tokens

when opus just came out i added $10 in extra balance bc id sometimes run out with extended “thinking” before finishing a task but now i use opus in claude code by default and still have some of that credit left
