It's official - @mozilla@twitter.com is fully live on Matrix! exple.tive.org/blarg/2020/02/2 Helping get Mozilla going has been a lot of fun, and we'll see a lot of improvements to Riot's UX in the coming months based on their feedback (turns out they know quite a lot about FOSS usability :D)

Getting tired of every "guix package -u" rebuilding icecat. Is there a way to tell it to use the prepackaged one and just grab whatever deps that needs?

This seems like a pretty big waste of CPU cycles & power.

The LG dishwasher is starting to leak. Ordered a new gasket (seems the seal going is the most common problem).

$36 plus shipping plus tax brings it to over $50 for a $2-$5 part.

At least it's possible for this model. The old oven died after 5 years and no parts were available at all.

Repairability is so much of an afterthought on home appliances.

Would be cool if #lineageos shows the patch level before booting into the ROM... Does the current nightly already include this month's android patches?

Trying to move instances has made me realize how communication is controlled by fediverse instance admins, not users, to the users's detriment.

This is frustrating as picking an instance that some admins start to disagree with means that communication is cut off between users without them having a say.

Currently octodon.social and mastodon.technology block my main instance.

Email had its problems, but it is rare for admins there to decide who you can & can't email wholesale.

These are baseless accusations of "cybercrimes."

The charges are “an obvious attempt to attack a free press in retaliation for the revelations we reported about Minister Moro and the Bolsonaro government.” - Glenn Greenwald

Things which your project could use which immediately make me stop being interested in touching it at all:

- Google groups
- Bazaar
- LaunchPad
- SourceForge
- Slack

Don't use those things, thanks.

I've seen the benefit of the Feed-In-Tariff, and am saddened that locally it has been stopped by the latest provincial government.

At least Germany is still leading the world with this.
