Wow. Thanks @inkscape for participating in my #LibreOffice & #OpenDocument poster. Yes, the poster is created with #Inkscape. I want to share it to the whole world!

What if web pages had to pay me every time theirJavascript ran on my computer and put my CPU to 100%

I think that would be fair

Question for network hackers (please boost).

What's the safest way to prove that the ethernet responding to a certain public IP (v4) is located in a certain nation (or at least continent)?

I mean, I can use a geolocation db but I guess it could be outdated. Trace routing the IP and geolocating each hop through the db? Maybe better but... is there an even better way?

Today I'd like to discuss Conduit, which is what XML Conduit and HTML Conduit is built upon! Maybe that's where they get their names?

Conduit is a system for definining pipelines that can switch between push & pull.

A "Conduit" is a function which takes a trailing function to call with some argument and returns a "Pipe". A Pipe is essentiallya linked list with a "final result", though it has several other interesting features.

When you call yourself “free and open source” and you’re a raging surveillance capitalist.

Hey, FOSS Post, you’re a bit shit, aren’t you, darling?

@Science

"“It can scarcely be denied that the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”

-- Einstein

(The origin of the following psudo-quote most likely)

“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler”

Connected to my Plan 9 slice at SDF, built and installed and tested a program from my local fs via /mnt/term :) #plan9 #sdf #bootcamp2020

I'm wondering if the EDPB shouldn't intervene with an official communication against #Microsoft as they are once again misleading the public, first with their invalid SCCs and now by stating they comply and exceed EDPB's recommendations.

There is absolutely nothing in their blog and attached document that resembles any of the additional measures required to comply with EDPB's recommendations but it seems like it doesn't really matter to them.

Ugh, @GitHub waking up, reminding me that I already had a #YouTubeDL fork I forgot about.

Sorry but no, erasing it and forking again is *not* an option, this is rewriting history to please @RIAA. 😠

I did nothing wrong, nor @YouTubeDLTeam. Just put it back and I'll push to it.

And it's specially ridiculous considering I didn't push to this one for years and it only has like 1 commit from me.
