Every christmas…

Yeah. He is pretty horrible. What surprised me though is his daughter’s film company has a pretty solid track record on quality movies and tv series:

But yeah, Larry Elison sucks…

I was joking here a bit, but:

• A big crowd of people has suddenly a lot of weed.
• People in Berlin like to go to bars and like to smoke weed (a fact)
• Suddenly there’s a lot more weed, many people more are smoking it either in the bar (allowed in a few places at least in Neukolln) or outside the bar (about every other place outside Neukolln)
• Fun.

So it was my take on laughing a bit about the winter 2024…

Yeah. I don’t mean that. But how is it going to look like in bars when everybody suddenly has hundreds or so grams of weed…

I’m in Berlin and half of my neighbors have these 3m tall weed plants on their balconies. 3-4 usually, and nobody really cares. I wonder how the winter is going to be when everybody suddenly has half a kilo of weed…

In my experience, nix works exceptionally well with Rust. Python and JavaScript are nastier, especially if the libraries use C extensions.

Zenarmor ftw.

Musl can be a bit annoying compilation target sometimes. Usually it works but I’ve debugged bugs a few times that were due to musl target.

I prefer my distro with glibc…

But do not run Linux, the kernel.

Ah. And delivered very often in the tiniest possible bottle. One drop of cola that just turns into steam on your tongue.

Where is the kilo of crushed ice and a liter of coke, huh?

Just found both of the albums. Can’t wait to listen!

I do that all the time.

Underground techno parties. Lots of cool people.

And LLM is mostly for investors, not for users. Investors see you “do AI” even if you just repackage GPT or llama, and your Series A is 20% bigger.

Upper middle class gays somewhere in Gilbert Arizona who just want to see their retirement savings to go zoink. You have your walled swimming pool and Trader Joe’s nearby.

Wait, the article says to use parmesan, eggs, pancetta and spaghetti? Uh, it is pecorino, eggs, guanciale and spaghetti. This is basically the only way to get the best results. You can fuck with any other italian pasta, but carbonara is only good if done exactly with these four ingredients. And of course a ton of black pepper.

I know, I tried every possible combination. The only one that makes sense is the one with pecorino and guanciale.

Did so years ago. Everybody uses it from my family and friends. I’ve had a very active group chat there for eight years with friends. My mom uses it actively, even calls me using Signal. My partner knows it is the best chat app and actively uses it.

I just asked ages ago for everybody to switch to signal, they valuated the features and for a group chat automatically deleted messages and strong encryption were really interesting for everybody. Now we can shoot shit in a group chat without needing to worry that the logs are stored somewhere forever.

Sway is on wayland and wayland together with systemd is the best thing that ever happened to Linux.

/me throws a smoke bomb to the floor and runs away laughing.

But they give their data when the officials ask. That is all that matters. And I seriously hope none of us uses Telegram or WhatsApp to any discussions. Use Signal because that is so far pretty unbreakable.

Telegram is already in the hands of that tiny Russian old man and WhatsApp is owned by a lizard.

Signal always responds to authorities when they ask for data, and they give them all they have: the day they registered, their phone number and the timestamp they last used the app.

Telegram has unencrypted channels of drug dealing, and what I heard is a lot of illegal porn too. The authorities want information on certain users there and Telegram doesn’t comply. This is directly against the law Signal is not breaking, because they always send all the data they have to the law enforcement.
