@tauon fans would be too embarassed to release something like that, this can only be achieved via a complete lack of a soul.
I got asked over on Tumblr to explain how EPROMs work/are used, so I ended up explaining the whole basic timeline of mask ROMs to flash memory, in an attempted accessible-to-non-techie fashion. It's here if you'd like to read it or fact check me:

@nixCraft please for the love of god just let PHP die pleeeeeease
@nixCraft yes, I'm sure OpenAI would be treated the same if it just allowed people to download its training material for free, these cases are exactly the same.
I have done The Thing.
https://catfox.life/2024/09/05/porting-systemd-to-musl-libc-powered-linux/
I have ported #systemd to #musl. Properly. Passing all tests, properly. Booting my 2012 Ivy Bridge in 3.2 seconds, properly.
I'm aware of how unpopular this will be in some circles. But change does not happen without competition, and musl environments deserve more than what they have right now. systemd isn't a panacea, it isn't even that great, but it's here, it solves real issues people have, and it's now an option. Not a requirement, but an option.
@mikoto there's one port to an EFI executable, which can be booted by grub and directly by the mobo.

#fediblock qoto.org - admins CONSTANTLY get too silly - federates with the dangerous alt-right instance authenyo.xyz - SEVERAL violations of the TOS. This instance isn't the kind of vibe we want - federation with the usual suspects - harbouring wanted fedicriminals guilty of fedisins - misuse of the #fediblock hashtag - too many neocat emojis (click on view remote)
@Bene also the multi-user functionality of Steam on Linux is abominable, it can't even share installed games between users, which is probably why they went with the single user solution for SteamOS. Which sucks, I want everyone to have their private desktop, browser and settings, not one shared environment like it's the 90's and the whole family shares the same account because the parents' computer knowledge ends at knowing how to use a browser (barely).
@icedquinn what did you use previously, ceramic? I had a similar experience switching from ceramic to gas (moving apartaments), suddenly things heat up hella fast.

elect me as Unicode consortium president! I will:
mandate sitelen pona support in modern operating systems
implement xkcd’s non-breaking snake proposal
assign codepoints to the neocats, with ZWJ sequences for the hugging variants to allow for combinatorial variation
introduce full configurability of the number of eyes in your cyryllic multiocular O
remove the redundancy between the flags of Poland and Indonesia, factoring it out into a universal “rotate by 180 degrees” codepoint that will definitely not unleash chaos unto the world
the future is in our grasp! vote mei today!
@icedquinn we as the society should use the resources regained via generative AI to make the twitter artists the now poors that polish fancy things.
Everyone wins.
