Non ho molti dettagli, il cavo elettrico sembra risalire se non a questo secolo almeno alla fine del secolo scorso, quindi credo abbia discrete probabilità di funzionare ancora (e non prendere fuoco appena la si attacca alla corrente :) ).
Ci sono anche un po' di spazzole.
Le mie ambizioni piccoloborghesi non sono al livello da voler lucidare regolarmente i pavimenti :D
Se nessuno esprime interesse, al prossimo giro finisce in discarica.
Does Logitech understand how often I wear out the actual hardware of my mouse? Do they really think they want to be in charge of maintaining that forever?
@TerryHancock Maybe. Meanwhile, I have a $200 #DasKeyboard Professional 6 that I've already had to RMA once and I can't get firmware updates on even though it "supports #Linux".
I still find it utterly hilarious that kindergarten grade math, a function that computers are literally built on, is beyond the reach of "advanced AI".
@WhyNotZoidberg Hint: what's sold to the public as "Artificial Intelligence" is not what the public, conditioned by decades of SF, think of as artificial intelligence. It's just spicy autocomplete.
Oh I know. Doesn't help that Tech Bros (not to be confused with people who understand tech) fret about it becoming sentient and / or being the salvation to all our problems.
@gsuberland German has "Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl" (Waving the fence post) as idiom for "giving a broad hint for something that should have been pretty obvious". And a fence would literally be what is missing here.
Also, helmets, but I've given up hoping that anyone working with heavy head-level loads would care to wear one. Looking at the complete event tech / stage tech sector there.

I must not reply. Replying is the mind-killer. Replying is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face the bad take. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the take has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
Michael Catanzaro from #GNOME published yesterday this interesting blog post about binding C libraries and a nice feature of #Vala; at the end there is the convenient solution (you can skip to it if you want ;) blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/202… #ValaLang #GNOME #GTK #GTK4
Useless robots (or useless machines) are devices that, when switched on, exist only to turn themselves back off. They are fun and fairly simple builds that are easy to personify, and really invite …
OpenSSH sshd on musl-based systems is not vulnerable to RCE via CVE-2024-6387 (regreSSHion).
This is because we do not use localtime in log timestamps and do not use dynamic allocation (because it could fail under memory pressure) for printf formatting.
While the sshd bug is UB (AS-unsafe syslog call from signal context), very deliberate decisions we made for other good reasons reduced the potential impact to deadlock taking a lock.
It's bad out there. It looks a lot like last time, but it's worse. Even worse. Ft. the inimitable @alyankovic The track and other goodies- https://www.patre...
“Q: Is GPT-5 faster? A: Its predecessors already produce hundreds or even thousands of words almost instantaneously. Now GPT-5 brings PhD writing skills to the table, meaning it can generate text at a rate of about ten words per day. (This does not include the romance novel it’s writing on the side, online searches for “ADHD self-diagnosis,” or social media posts about not wanting to write.)” mcsweeneys.net/articles/chatgp… #phd #gpt
Via @tedmielczarek @natevw I have learned that the Apple // character set is preserved in Unicode (Except not the Apple logo, which is trademarked— this is in the PUA as , but that is not Unicode. But everything else).
Which means!!! The cute little running guy in the hidden characters!! Is in!!!
🮲🮳
So, if you are on Windows 10 or a modern Apple product, above you see two boxes
But, fricking inexplicably!!! On Linux!!! It actually displays!!!
A friend of mine joked when this came to light the other day that we should start the timer to see how long it would be before some SystemD person came out and said that was expected behavior and you're an idiot for using it wrong. And we laughed to ourselves, wouldn't that would be funny, that really is the reputation they have now isn't it.
Well, jokes on us, because that's the first fucking comment on the bug.

@jef Both came out of Barbara Liskov's research group. In 1994, although Scheifler had moved on, Barbara and her group were still there, around the corner and down the hall from me.
The 5th floor of 545 Tech Square was an astonishingly productive place: X, the End-to-End Principle, library operating systems, packet audio and video over wide-area networks, "soft state", RSVP, mesh networks, content-addressable file systems, TCP time-sequence plots, ...
This is an EPIC rant and EVERY WORD OF IT IS TRUE. Seriously, set aside half an hour to read it! (Caution: contains expletives and LLMs.) mastodon.sprawl.club/@ludicity…
Great news everyone! I finally talk about AI hype. Someone finally mentioned LLMs one time too many, and the reckoning is upon us:
https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/i-will-fucking-piledrive-you-if-you-mention-ai-again/
My theory is that tech is going through a significant post-COVID downsizing right now and AI hype is a somewhat desperate attempt to keep the cash rolling in.
This line about grifters is <chef's kiss>: "... it turns out that the core competency of smiling and promising people things that you can't actually deliver is highly transferable."
I want to love this blog but to be honest I appreciate the passion and I don't care about profanity but the ultra-violent imagery turns me off. That said, it is very interesting to hear the little boy exposing the Emperor's New Clothes
thanks for making this appear in my feed 👍 nice to see someone else ranting about the same things I rant about internally 😂 I did my undergrad thesis on using machine learning techniques in human activity recognition (over a decade ago). We had some clever things going on then, and put hard graft in, but none of it was truly ready for the masses and ML still isn't, but the genie is out of the bottle and some people are determined to make it work, like crypto currencies all over...
It is fantastic that AI companies can freely scrape copyrighted stuff from the Internet, but downloading of `youtube-dl` is illegal in the whole EU, because Hamburg regional court said so .. 🤦♂️
STASERA ci sarà questo evento per chi abita a Bergamo o intorni. È un corso introduttivo su git che è uno strumento per gestire le varie versione di un gruppo di file.
Mi farebbe piacere che ci andaste, anche perché è organizzato dal @bglug, l'associazione di cui faccio parte
Se sei uno studente, un hobbista, uno sviluppatore o un professionista IT, questo corso è perfetto per te. Git, nato per supportare lo sviluppo del kernel Linux, è ora lo standard per la collaborazione nel mondo open source e aziendale.
Apparently the SORBS DNS blocklist has closed down for good. There was an announcement to that end on the mailop mailinglist recently, and I've seen articles on various tech newstickers today: jort.link/www.mail-archive.com…
(I wasn't aware that SORBS was sponsored directly by Proofpoint.)
If you still have references to dnsbl.sorbs.net anywhere in your mail server or antispam configuration, now is the time to remove them.
