This bald otherwise metalhead enjoys playing with computers with a clock frequency between 0.985 and 200 MHZ and has been an avid Linux prophet since the days when he could only surf the internet through dialup and terminals.

Today it's #Höstkruset2026!
We're a gang of friends driving to a cabin in the woods where there's no phone service, to eat and drink beer!
There will be fun and games, some sauna and perhaps a dip in the ocean.
I will spend the night in our Volvo as usual, watching a horror movie before bed.
On top of it, I'm visiting a friend that has moved to the area whom I haven't seen in a year or two.
All in all, a good Saturday.

@Livija@mastodon.nu Vem dör? Och om ingen dör, har du världens chans för en whodunnit - "'CLOSE THE DOORS! NOBODY LEAVES UNTIL WE FIND THE CULPRIT'" ropar cermonimästaren på knagglig engelska och ett sorl utbrister i rummet. Kungen sitter och vrider sig på sin stor och tittar oroligt över axeln."
Kan någon förklara skillnaden mellan "Vi gör Sverige till Sverige igen" och "Bevara Sverige Svenskt", nu igen?
Hey music lovers! Are you looking for a #Spotify alternative? Then I got some free codes for #Qobuz for you! They are 5 invites connected to this code, so first come first serve. This code will give you 2 months of free streaming.
Qobuz is a French competitor that's been around since the early days of music streaming, have a great catalog, DRM free purchases and they pay artists a better share than the competitors.
What are you waiting for? Grab yours now!

Det är inte #BandcampFriday men ni har väl inte missat att #Huggskott släppt ny EP? Svensk rock när den är som bäst.

@icing@chaos.social The only reason they are CVE's is because of privilege escalation. I'm trying to make colleagues and customers to understand that while yes, these are serious issues, but an attacker would already usually need to have shell access to the system in order to perform the exploits. If that's the case, they have other more security issues. Especially when the server is on a private network without any public entrances
Happy sunday, everyone!

I wonder if all these Linux exploits are being thrown out there by Microsoft into scaring corps to Windows Server.
1) Have LLM scan through open source for potential exploits
2) Whip up a POC to showcase these exploits
3) Release as 0days, bypassing any best practices regarding publications of exploits
4) Point and say, "See? Linux is more exploitable than Windows"

@polpo@chaos.social Nice! Is that when the drive is actually idle? It would be cool if it was possible to have a spinning disc when accessing also
Replying to
@duckz@mastodon.gamedev.place The whole point of unit tests is that they are reproducable. They're tailored for specific scenarios, and should thus be recreateable imho.
If you know how to reproduce a certain scenario, where the application expects a blob for the mockup, then build a tool that creates the blob before testing.
Prepare -> mock -> test
Replying to
@bagder@mastodon.social Yeah, I understand it takes time to backtrack through an entire project or projects to make everything transparent for reviewers.
But after this debacle I hope that more developers look into dogfooding their binary storage in projects. I too am responsible for storing blobs, albeit in private repos, but I've since tried to implement build-time asset transformation instead even though it may bulk up the repos.
Replying to
@sqhistorian I don't get it, they have automated mute in place, why not use it? I mean, ok that they can report as is their GODFORSAKEN RIGHT APPARENTLY 🙃 but instead of removing the video they should automute the segment and inform the creator (so that they have opportunity to fix)

@dec23k@mastodon.ie Windows is case non-sensitive @lmorchard@masto.hackers.town
Replying to
@bagder@mastodon.social I'm confused to as why binary blobs are allowed to be stored in public source code repositories anyways.
I mean, I understand if you want to include assets for a game, but wouldn't it then be safer to store them in readable format before compression? As a simplified example, png's could be stored as xpm in source and then converted into the better format using provided tools, also in the repo.
Tldr being: If blobs are to be used in tests, write a tool that generates the blob for them.

@troed@masto.sangberg.se I'd say, ban calculators in early academic. As pointed in this and multiple other articles and studies it is a known fact that relying on calculators have made an impact on younger people not being able to do simple math.
Replying to
@troed@masto.sangberg.se LLMs ought to be approached the same way - the ones who praise LLMs for being the best thing since sliced bread, mostly don't know how to do shit - they don't write, create, code - but with this new tool "they can".
Because they have this flashy new tool, they don't need to learn the fundementals, which in turn will lead to issues when the LLM spit out stuff they don't understand but expect to be correct - which often it is not.

@lmorchard@masto.hackers.town Lol, "User clicking on malicious link" isn't exactly what I would call an exploit
