That Guy From Norway
i had an income of €4800/mo in 2019 working as a programmer.

now my income is €1600/mo.

i don't want to work as a programmer anymore. i hated it. i thought i'd love it, for 15 years i convinced myself i just needed to find the right workplace, but it was just me.

so i live on 1/3 the income because i don't wanna do that. very steep price to pay, but it's worth it.

I really should get back into drawing. I enjoy it far more than programming, but it doesn't pay the bills. I actually learned to draw long before I got into computer science or anything related to technology. I did this drawing of Richard Stallman 2 years ago.

Trouble is, I only get the inspiration to do art once every blue moon. It's really hard to get motivated. My time is otherwise consumed writing code and wielding a soldering iron.

Is anyone interested in starting a new adaptive GTK Rust client for Signal for Linux smartphones and desktops? I wrote a post on the @PINE64 forum about my reasoning for this technical approach:

Please boost.

*Do not respond to this with criticism of Signal*. If you're annoying about that, I'll block you.

Interesting. Richard Stallman has updated his personal website. He is aware of the hatred against him and links the support site stallmansupport.org/

Go RMS!

I volunteer as 'IT person' for a museum in its early days, (eicas.nl - @EICAS).

I would love to connect with other "museum people" and "museum IT people", here and elsewhere.

Any boosts/recommendations welcome!

I've spent all day reading the Rust book. It seems very thorough, which I quite like

I'll have more thoughts later, probably

Nice, proof that the scientists arent bias and when they notice a mistake in their work they will retract it.

Given the long history of police retribution against people exercising their First Amendment right to record interactions with authorities, a U.S. court upholds the ability of the public to secretly record police encounters. eff.org/deeplinks/2021/04/firs

Facebook blocks users who scrape and post paid political disinformation ads, but it missed the crooks who scraped and dumped 553m user profiles. Just another reason it shouldn’t be in charge of who gets to interoperate with it and on what terms. eff.org/deeplinks/2021/04/5530

FediTips has moved!

@zleap @4ioskd

The only private data an instance has is your email address and password. (If you're not using a VPN there will be an IP address too.)

If you want to have maximum security in case of a leak, you could use a throwaway email address, unique password and VPN connection. In that case there wouldn't (as far as I know) be anything sensitive to leak?

By the way, there are thousands of instances on the Fediverse 😁

@feditips @4ioskd@ukadon.shillest.net

Cool thanks, i was asking as this sort of thing worries people generally so being able to get more reassurance that there is nothing worth leaking is a good thing.

But good point, we should try and use what is said here as part of the strategy when promoting the fediverse @dsfgs
