damn has no one really made a RISC-V Pi Zero-like device?? feels like a missed opportunity but maybe not enough people would buy them idk

is there any official way to disconnect a PDS from a relay? i've 410-d the domain, but it seems there's a few services that are still trying to hit it..

so... how exactly does "age verification" work for corporate social media accounts? if corporations are people, then surely any companies that are too young can't have an account, right? 🙃

i think the two things i miss most are:
- not needing to always manually call `free`
- Options / Results

these two things alone honestly do *so much* to even *just* code readability, i've been taking them for granted this whole time lol
i think i might've made a grave mistake learning rust before trying to learn C lol

considering tearing down the PDS on my RPi (i haven't been messing with it much lately unforch), and there's an ASN called 't4t labs' that's subscribed apparently?? kind of awesome lol

i keep a list of problems i have with GIMP, and every time i have to open the damn thing i end up adding one to the list
GIMP is objectively unintuitive and also can’t parse text layers of PSDs properly, it’s designed by FOSS people that have never created tools for professionals. Telling someone to use it for their job is like saying you can make a feature on iMovie. Technically true but not serious.
if you find GIMP hard to use you probably shouldn't be allowed to drive a car or shop at a grocery store. it's literally just buttons with pictures on them that do the things the pictures represent. you don't even need to be able to read.

oh! how long has this been around :O

i really like the idea of nixos, but unfortunately every time i use it i feel like I'm slamming my head into a brick wall

only now started reading through K&R C, and as weird as it feels to say, it's made me understand Rust more. like i've always intellectually understood the importance of the borrow checker and what it does, but something about reading C helps it click 🙂‍↕️

on the one hand: starting with a pi pico is nice because the docs are super clear and comprehensive

on the other hand i suspect i am now completely spoiled by the docs

I hope that more techies start getting into philosophy and not just for a random quote to use at conferences by some writer you’ve never read any work from, but to start thinking more broadly about the social impact of new technologies.

yk maybe i'm naive, but releasing an (*at best*) tone-deaf AI feed generator *before* wrapping up on-protocol private data feels like A Fucking Choice, but hey

i love how easy cross compiling is on rust until it Absolutely Is Not and you spend hours trying to figure out what the fuck you're even supposed to do

in hopes a feed somewhere picks this up: is there writing on the env vars for rsky anywhere? curious about pds hosting, and being a rustacean i'm naturally drawn to anything written in rust lol

have to admit, it's somewhat funny watching people get a chatbot to generate an entire app with no oversight, completely juxtaposed with my junior ass being too afraid to do some projects because i worry i won't be able to secure them adequately enough

truly the duality of man lmfao

rather fascinating getting recommended a video mentioning the fascist distro guy by name in its title

reading through some of the docs for the pi pico 2, and that last bit gave me a good laugh lmfaoo
