Not a fan of the ceaseless horrors. They’re starting to get annoying
Are there any e-ink readers with a physical keyboard and navigation buttons like a kindle 3 that aren’t amazon made? And ideally ones that are somewhat hackable and not centrally controlled by an evil megacorp?
And possibly newer than a kindle 3, but I’d take stuff from that time period too if needed. Just ugh, micro USB is way worse than C (though mini or full size B would be cooler)
I had a kindle 3 a long time ago and would like something that is similarly laid out but ideally not evil
“Be it known that there are now three SLAVE-HUNTERS or KIDNAPPERS in Boston, looking for their prey.”
A poster that was distributed in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, in 1851, to warn enslaved people and people who might be perceived as such (black Americans and black immigrants).
To keep #OpenStreetMap.org up and running while we're being deluged by scrapers, we've blocked 320,000+ primarily residential IPv4 addresses in the last 24 hours (+ 100,000 IPv6) involved in scraping.
If you need OSM data, please don't scrape the website - use the official downloads at https://planet.openstreetmap.org

Could you have a #FreeBSD RELEASE system with a single STABLE base package such as #bhyve?
Jesus fucking Christ this is not a post asking for advice. I’m instant blocking any mansplainers. Y’all can’t go for one second without thinking you’re the smartest person in the room. It’s insufferable.
@danirabbit didn't see anything that bad...
@Wtebbens (fwiw the same probably applies to any marketplace or platform for creators; unless you want massive scale, you might be better off managing your own distribution channels)
@swelljoe OFFFS, you got me sucked in. About halfway through s01.
@GeePawHill the first season is the best one. I've been chasing that high ever since. It's more fun when folks don't know what to expect and haven't been putting on weight for six months in preparation for starving.

@Wtebbens Was talking about Spotify with colleagues and even at the usual rate it seems like it would be more worth it for small artists to not upload to Spotify since you'd likely be undercutting what you could make selling tracks on e.g. Bandcamp + social media.
If you want to grow your audience then Spotify might make sense but only if you know that you're undercutting yourself in hopes of growth. Even then, having a cult following may be more powerful.
Should small artists boycott Spotify?
Two minutes of zen.

I hope to have an OccamBSD update this month but have hit an undocumented wall and have reached out to the expert and realized that…

Driving to #FOSDEM today through the snow 🥲🌨
@Gina Safe travels, and I look forward to our paths crossing on Saturday!
This is something i put together with shit I found in my yard when it wasn't winter
Matt: I want to be driven what's in my heart.
What's in his heart: Hunger.
For someone with hair like that, he spent an unusual amount of time worrying about what other people think of him.

It's truly the most mindless thing and symptomatic for the "AI" bullshitters: OSM allows you to just download all the data in nice and simple snapshots. Instead, scrapers use thousands of residential IP addresses to query the service at zero benefit over the data dumps.
The people creating these systems understand as little as the "AI" they create.
