The #gitea developers concluded after 10 years that it is not able to host its own development and that they depend on #GitHub.

At the same time, the community fork @forgejo is self-hosted for a long time and is also powering the popular @Codeberg and at least 8 other public instances. So this seem to be a good time to migrate if you haven't already.

A new Git version just dropped and it comes with a new experimental `history` command!

`reword` can be used to change commit messages and `split` can untangle a single commit into multiple ones.

No more interactive rebase. 🎉

When you think about it, the 767 is your ideal supervillain aircraft:

- you can plausibly pretend to be operating a chronically bankrupt freight airline

- it's mostly metal so you can cut holes in the skin to add fun gadgets

- there's a large pool of semi retired unscrupulous freight pilots

- it's still modern enough you can take it ~anywhere under ETOPS rules

“I have had such a good relationship with the Great Betrayer. I cannot understand why, at this particular time, he has chosen to betray me. I know that all the other appeasers who offered him gifts and abandoned their principles to accommodate his arbitrary demonic whims were betrayed but their gifts all sucked and mine were great. It doesn’t make sense that the Great Betrayer would betray *me*, I am built different!”

when someone's biography is like (145 BC – ?) I like to assume they're still out there somewhere, posting to this day

@whitequark@social.treehouse.systems so the specific terms are here https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:32023R1542#art_11

and so: maybe? I guess it depends on whether you can make something viable to remove/replace the battery with simple tools that you could include together with the phone.

i think pkgsrc and gentoo would probably solve my problem for Linux (and maybe macOS) but neither of them will produce Windows binaries with MSVC. the search continues

i'm trembling in anticipation of writing the horrifying meta-CMake abomination

(in terror? in excitement? you decide)

it appears that my two options are "Nix, maybe" and "horrifying meta-CMake abomination"

#Python

let's say you want to build an application that uses Qt as a statically linked binary, and you want to avoid building two dozen dependencies yourself

is there any existing cross-platform solution which will do that for me and also isn't vcpkg?

right now there's support in the source code but no regular testing. I do not like having platforms that are supported on a "whoever sees breakage submits a patch" basis and would prefer to have a Haiku CI machine, but I've never used the OS

do I know any people who use Haiku and would be willing to help set up a CI workflow for ChiPass?

🌟 Project Release Announcement Time! 🎉

I wrote a WebUSB extension for Firefox.

This lets web pages access USB devices (with your permission). This has long been supported by Chrome, but Mozilla has not wanted it, at least by default. Fortunately, because add-ons are a thing (for now. make sure to keep fighting for this!), it's possible to change that!

Common reasons for wanting this include programming microcontrollers, 3d-printers, smartphone bootloaders, and similar "physical computing" projects.

This works on Windows, Linux, and macOS

You can get the source code here: https://github.com/ArcaneNibble/awawausb

In order to make this work, you will need to install a small program on your computer. This is explained in the README. You can then install the .xpi file (on the GitHub Releases page) into your browser (which was _just_ auto-approved while I was typing this announcement up).

Please boost (if you want), test, report bugs, etc. etc. (although do keep in mind that this code is entirely written by a single catgirl)

i think this is the perfect type of project to drop late on a sunday / very early on a monday?
