I'm never using UK mirrors again...

@kemona_halftau how does one pronounce your name?

oh yeah today is tau day

birthday tomorrow

Just because I'm curious. How many languages do you speak? (well enough to have a simple conversation, at least)

Do boost.

morning

good night fedi (I really should've gone to bed hours ago again, it's past sunrise)

@ariadne but it gets the posts from public relays which are already boosting all these posts, just people probably aren't as aware of it

@ariadne I don't really get all the opposition to it when it's quite literally doing the exact same thing as public relays (boosting public posts from instances subscribed to said relays). The only difference as far as I can tell is that people are more aware of tags.pub because they're notified of the boosts.

codeberg is down, post ponies (since @dpk doesn't seem to be around right now to post this)

@catsalad @neil you can use it as a proxy and use LD_PRELOAD hacks like torsocks/proxychains4 to force dynamically-linked programs using libc socket functions to use it, but not really as a VPN because it's TCP-only (and some stuff might leak through if you're not careful)

@TheyCallMeHacked @neil possibly, but that's not quite the same as actually including LLM-generated code. it's more like using proprietary software for development (e.g. being hosted on github) compared to actually including proprietary software: they're both problems but not really the same

@neil even if they're allowed, I think "contains LLM-generated code" should definitely at least be listed as an antifeature

@alice technically anything could happen since signed integer overflow is undefined behaviour (in C)

including but not limited to nasal demons and eggs laying eggs (even in the past because UB is allowed to time travel)

@thing if you have firmware installed and it’s not rfkill and there’s nothing in dmesg then I have no idea. does it show up in iw list? maybe that has something relevant

@thing on my thinkpad x200 sometimes wifi would stop working because I accidentally changed the position of the physical wifi disable switch

@thing have you checked that wifi isn't disabled with rfkill? that's the only other thing I can think of

@kemona_halftau @therwi @maxie quadruple meowing, meow

@kemona_halftau I woke up at around 6:30 for some reason (even though the temperature was still 29°C) and it was a bit hard to get back to sleep but I did manage eventually (and it gave me the opportunity to close the windows and install the foil-towels)
