You know what’s software engineering? Regaining control over a computer 20 billion kilometers away thanks to the design decisions made 50 years prior. #voyager2

About the Matrix incident on July 26 2023 https://text.tchncs.de/tchncs/about-the-matrix-incident-on-july-26-2023

so how's it going over at the Dark Fediverse, the loose network of awful nazi and TERF sites that everyone over here has fediblocked?

well, Alex Gleason - or Soapbox TERF - has quit his job at Truth Social to go work on integrating Soapbox with the Nostr network, which is like the dark fediverse but with bitcoins. Gleason got funding from Jack Dorsey to do this work.

Soapbox is Gleason's fork of Pleroma after he was so much of an arsehole he managed to get kicked out of that project, and the project was largely the other ten guys at the table

i can hardly describe my lack of surprise that Gleason was at Truth Social.

Gleason is a transphobic gay man, btw. Wonder how that went down at Truth Social.

A prediction (based on decades of coding):
There is some code - somewhere deep in the zillions of lines of X(Twitter) code - which absolutely and wrongly depends on the literal string "twitter".
And, as the rebranding continues, it will fail, spectacularly.

@sethi @kaiengert a few more screenshots from #Thunderbird on #LinuxMobile. With the folder panel hidden and the message list switched to Card View it is quite usable. I've also added the Folders Toolbar button for switching between accounts.

My #68k home brew computer is coming along nicely. I’ve decided on 512Kx16 ROM and 1Mx16 RAM, and just a 68K-era 68C681 serial chip for I/O for now. I might hook up a parallel port and the FPGA VGA interface I’m working on later. I’ve started hooking up the serial chip and preparing placements for bus buffers and transceivers. 555-based power-on reset circuit is set as well.

There is something really calming about carefully measuring and weaving hookups on the #breadboard.

This is a #librem5 and a #pinephonepro without any hardware specific code

This took a lot of work
