something incredible about techies not being able to comprehend a website that isn't a startup

Aus gut unterrichteten Kreisen weiß ich, dass diese Bildungsbürger vom letzten Jahr auch dieses Jahr am @c3spaeti Punkrocksongtexte vorlesen. Wie so in der Grundschule. #40C3

"A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women."

Even better idea: Can "security" vendors stop shipping ridiculously insecure "security" products please? Like so many promised to do with their Secure by Design pledges?

As mentioned yesterday, I’m one of 60k people offered an exit from Microsoft.

I wanted to just give a heads up that in the next few weeks I may be talking about that, to the capacity I’m allowed to.

If that’s not something you’re interested in, feel free to mute in the meantime.

Leute, es ist kurz vor 12 und eigentlich fast schon zu spät dafür. Wir Software-Leute haben ordentlich gepennt. Aber tretet wenigstens jetzt ner #Gewerkschaft bei!

My first significant mesa contribution got merged :neobot_heart_eyes_blue: 🥳
I think that concludes dmabuf-v6 support (in Cosmic at least, pretty sure KDE also already has it and the nvidia driver as well!)

I've not been that hyped for C3 for a long time. *excited #40C3 waiting tune plays*

Auf jeden Fall ist es schon einmal gut, dass Berlin die vielen Milliarden für Olympische Spiele erspart geblieben sind.

Vor 6 Tagen kam der Bericht heraus, der uns sagte: das 1,5 Grad-Klimaziel ist nicht mehr einhaltbar.

Gabs dazu schon eine Talkshow?

@autolycos Consent is cool. What if people do not consent? What if people, properly informed, don’t give their consent?

AI is all about steamrolling over consent. The mash everything together and then say “oops! We can’t sort out the things we got consent for from the things we didn’t get consent for.” And they just go on using the stuff that nobody consented to.

The problem is not that they won’t ask for consent. The problem is that they won’t take ‘no’ for an answer.

Kinda ironic that some of the best folx in security I know are also quite insecure.

Consequences for the recent LLM vote seem to have arrived for Debian... automated slop reviews: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2026/10/msg00263.html

And we see here that at least one Debian developer, @josch, has been lost due to this change.

This is INCREDIBLY sad IMO. If you're an MNT Reform family computer user, @josch is basically a folk hero for making those machines *work*.

I am still feeling vindicated in my Vibe Bobsled blogpost, having seen both what's happening to the Linux Kernel and now to Debian, where we see the dismantling not only of individuals coding, but also communities, as everyone rides the icy chute down the hill https://dustycloud.org/blog/faulty-towers-vibe-sickness-and-the-vibe-bobsled/

Went to a communist meetup here (and it was genuinely nice) to listen to a communist party organiser from Brazil talk about the elections there.

Instead, I got a lecture on how BRICS is the answer to everything, we must stand with China against the violent fascists in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and with Russia against those vile Ukrainians and their imperialist Western supporters.

Oh, and apparently Ukraine is destroying monuments to Comrade Stalin, the liberator of Eastern Europe.

I beg your entire fucking pardon?

I went to hear about Brazilian elections and somehow ended up in the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact fan club, with bonus Stalinist hagiography.

The people of Hong Kong and Taiwan are not props in your anti-Western wank-fantasy. Ukrainians are not morally repugnant for resisting an invasion. And Stalin was not some benevolent grandpa who liberated Eastern Europe out of the goodness of his little communist heart.

Being anti-imperialist does not mean cheering for every empire that opposes the United States. Being a communist does not require outsourcing your critical thinking to Beijing or Moscow.

If your solidarity depends on pretending that the people resisting your favourite authoritarian powers are fascists, perhaps you should revisit the meaning of solidarity.

I am genuinely, spectacularly mindblown.

I came for a discussion about Brazil. I left wondering whether somebody had accidentally opened a portal to 1953 and forgotten to close it.

Why do Americans say "Instagram" and not "Insta¹⁄₃₀ounce", this is confusing
