Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

I like it when something has the function its appearance suggests.
@Big_Diggity How about the Everwhats?
@kyle Sorry to hear that! But I'm glad you're staying as an advisor. Good luck with the book. When it is out I want a copy, it sounds interesting and like it could be very helpful to me!

If you installed a Linux system with disk encryption more than a couple of years ago, there's a decent chance it's using a weak key derivation function and someone who cares enough would be in a position to brute-force it. https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/66429.html has more details and instructions on how to update to a better KDF.
@survey I'm excited about Large Language Models and open source. This isn't the best example, but #RedPajama: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35600860
@PetabyteStudios Oh wow. Keep us posted!

I certainly don't have all the answers, and this is by no means an original topic, but I would like to prompt some thoughts and discussion... There are tons of examples in the bible of giving to the poor and needy, lots of examples of being generous, there is no question that it's a good thing to do... But we don't want to be enabling people to continue in a bad situation, of course the obvious example is them spending any money given to them on drugs and alcohol or whatever... (I've heard that's especially bad here in AK)
I personally believe that the best solution is to give generously anyway (we don't want to make it a test that they have to pass or something) and follow up with spending some real time with them, getting to know their real needs, loving on them, etc. But obviously that takes time, and a certain level of discernment and also some gifting in that area that not everyone has... Another idea I've heard is giving out gift cards, so it's harder to use poorly... But that also limits some level of spicific blessing that we could be... Thoughts?
@CM30 It being made by Illumination had me worried as well.
All-round, I liked the movie. I do wish it had the seriousness that the trailers made it look like it had.
Why does Ctrl+W (close tab) have to be the same keyboard shortcut as deleting one word on the #commandLine 😭
Don't you hate it when you are typing something long on the #Web, and when you hit submit, there's an error (e.g. timeout) and all your progress is lost? Or, you accidentally close the tab and when you re-open it, all your work is gone?
I was filling in a box with a lot of text, and I accidentally hit Ctrl+W (#commandLine users, ya know!!), which closed the tab. The webpage failed to inhibit closing the page or having a draft saved. Ah, well, I lost less text than this post has 😄
@welshstu IS THAT A MASTODON TATTOO I SEE THERE
Those who think they have the world figured out understand it the least.

We’re at the random parts with wires sticking out dev phase.
Here we’re performing initial crude thermal tests.

Pixelfed is a photo sharing social network, the Fediverse's alternative to Instagram.
You can find out more from the official website at:
The site has a server list and app list (click ☰ if you're on mobile).
The official @pixelfed apps are in public beta testing, and there are third party Pixelfed apps available such as @vernissage for iPhone and @PixelDroid for Android.
You can follow Pixelfed accounts from Mastodon, and Mastodon accounts from Pixelfed.
An improved, I think, version:
Destination:
$ nc -l -p 10002 | pv | gpg -d --no-symkey-cache | tar -x
Source:
$ tar -cv [folder] | gpg -c | nc [dest's hostname] 10002
The `tar` `-v` flag is moved to the source host, so that you can see `gpg -d`'s output better to check that it isn't decrypting bogus publickey-encrypted data.
This uses the `pv` command too, which is optional in the pipeline and is usually not installed. It behaves similar to `cat` but with a handy progress indicator.
