The world would be a better place where, when someone encounters something confusing or which doesn't meet their preconceptions, they first tried to learn and understand it before rewriting a bunch of software and shoving all of their notions of correct into the domain
This one is kind of subtle so to be clear I'm talking about the influence of windows and mac on linux

Anbox on the Librem 5

"Anbox now runs on the Librem 5, getting you access to many additional free software apps that are packaged only for Android."

I like the other one better.
I think because when the gradient follows the movement, there's more contrast.

I would hope amoral. I think of Martin Luther chasing the devil away "with a fart"... but then again, reverence for the devil is most certainly immoral. I think we can apply some logical fallacy to this point...

Today in The Bookseller - the UK's trade magazine for the bookselling industry - I published "Inaudible," in which I unpack my reason for foregoing hundreds of thousands of dollars by refusing to allow Audible to put DRM on my audiobooks.

SourceHut's PeerTube bootstrap fund: first batch
I'm currently wearing my 'root shell shirt': a button-up shirt that has `#` all around it, but I was thinking... wouldn't it be cool to have an `ls /` shirt instead?
Does anybody know of any #cutnsew #customshirt businesses that could make this happen? And if there was one, would anyone want to bulk order?

Maybe an SMTP or connection error. (Seems reasonable to blame my home internet or my work email host).
I think I remember it saying 'timeout'.

One time, I tried to use git-send-email to send 3 commits to a mailing list. It failed to send the third email. So I repeated the process, but sent only the third email. On the lists.sr.ht page, the third commit appears as a separate thread. I'm not sure how I was supposed to salvage that.

This graph shows what happens if you *backload* the hard problems, doing them last.
This means that for a larger amount of time, you have a HIGHER risk of your assumptions being invalidated, and you'll have MORE progress which is rolled back as a result of those assumptions being invalidated.
@sir
Makes me want to get back into #Stepmania. Are there any good stepfile authors available by commission?
@toffy
Should we all standardize on https://schema.org/Recipe
Asking because I've been sitting on a bunch of recipes (some on paper, some PDF) which I plan to someday digitize.

Fun fact: if present-day US copyright law had been in force at the time that Disney's "Alice in Wonderland" was made, Lewis Carol's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" would not have entered the public domain for another 17 years
