    Well, I don't have this key working in AntiX either. So either it's a hardware issue (feels unlikely, this button was JUST working earlier today), or it's some fucked layout choice at the NVRAM or rEFInd level, which I expect to be very fun to diagnose.

    So, while I don't intend to main any Linux in 2026 (AntiX is just the best option, for when you need a Linux for something), I think I'll stay here a little while, tweak the system, and get set up for development. I already have a couple #Moonshine fixes to publish, having got that working again already.

    Fixes published, which means I've got my new SSH key in Sourcehut. I also have my basic stuff set up in vim. That's pretty much everything I need to get by!

    I can also confirm that the upstream fixes to `madon` have not been picked up in `madonctl`, so you still need a custom build to have individual notification dismissal work. Just as well, I have at least one more thing I need to contribute, but quite the annoying situation.

    I also notice some breakage in Prone, but it will probably go away soon in the massive refactor, so I'll hold off fixing it.

    Technically the breakage in #pronelang here comes a previously-correct .gitignore that, now incorrect, prevented the committing of a file I really don't want to recreate (2 lines active, many lines of docs).

    @401matthall Oh man, I wish. No, I know exactly where it is. Sitting on my NetBSD partition, on the same machine I'm typing on (but I'm on AntiX Linux at the moment). So I'll need to reboot, plug my USB keyboard in for an unrelated hardware reason, fix the .gitignore, commit `src/platform.c` and push. I guess I can do that now, I just finished up the other task I cared about.

    @401matthall Update: It took a couple reboots - I committed my fixes but forgot to push. It'll be good to go to bed soon. But I got the test suite working on Linux again, and gosh darnit, that's a thing!

    @MaddieM4
    Hi, you are working on something related to Mastodon. I am always afraid that my internet will be blocked out and I will go into darkness. I mean, without the internet. I want to have the posts of some accounts offline. Can you guide me and tell me some points for having posts without internet on my own server, which is tiny?

    I could ask Claude, but I am afraid of hurting the instance of Mastodon.

    I know that without the internet I can read books 😁 but Mastodon is cool for me. Thank you.

    @miladj I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds like you probably want to look into something called "snac" - it's a Fediverse server written in C, which can talk to other servers when it's connected to the internet, but is still totally usable on a small disconnected network. There are lots of server options, but snac is small and - from what I've heard - easy to manage. I've been planning to run my own instance for months, I just had other priorities!
