bringing my "whole self" to work

Police Chief is an in-person job now? RTO has gotten out of hand.

Multiple Sources Say Police Chief Barnes is Out; Mayor’s Office Not Responding to Questions The chief has been under fire over his frequent trips out of town, after flying back from Dallas partway through a planned two-week absence to respond to a mass shooting at Seattle Center.

I am likely to take the policy position that AI-assisted bug reports are banned from my projects in their entirety because the AI companies make individual FOSS maintainers jump through hoops to run the scans. I would rather file CVE disputes than play this game anymore.

These are excellent endorsements that you can trust - and should use. We don’t need the Stranger any more. Encourage your friends and family to go here instead.

They're here... @theurbanist.org primary endorsements are out, just in time for ballots to hit your mailboxes. www.theurbanist.org/2026-primary...

finally, i can begin my life journey of using MS-DOS in 2026 unironically

nop 👾⚡️@nopnop.bsky.social · 2mo ago

You're in luck SDL3 just added MS-DOS support!

fuck modern computing, going back to MS-DOS

got alpine linux running on a recovery partition on an old lenovo tab 2a7-10f, going for framebuffer rendering on the tablets display next, and then hopefully i can get some desktop enviorement running :P #linux #android

Do you use Node.js on Alpine Linux? We are looking for volunteers to help us bring Alpine to "Tier 2" where it would be built and released through the normal CI process. If you can help, let us know: https://bit.ly/4v03NiW

moved my bluesky account to the northsky one, which is @transrights.northsky.social

Seattle very clearly wants rail expansion. Sound Transit will alienate its core supporters and create massive political problems for itself if it proceeds with the Somers plan. It is time for wiser heads to prevail. We need city, county, and state leaders to intervene and stop ST from gutting ST3.

I fucking love Seattle ❤️ #SeattleNatureWalk

the #dirtyfrag exploit does not run successfully on alpine because the path to the donor SUID binary is hardcoded as /usr/bin/su. changing that to /bin/bbsuid allows the exploit to run, but it hangs for me on linux-lts 6.18.27.

type of information security practitioner who uses the phrase 'kill chain' unironically

It's entirely too easy to get a driver's license

It's not just X -- it's Y

i am planning to be at linuxfest northwest on saturday, if anyone wants to have a chat. i didn't submit any talks because i wanted to vibe check the conference first.

instructions unclear: posting inuyasha memes on linkedin to describe various business strategies

this is a great proposal and one that i think is worth studying. sound transit is already over-committed to light rail for the “spine” service, but building ballard/west seattle rail as an automated light *metro* makes an incredible amount of sense. our neighbours to the north have proved it.

The Urbanist@theurbanist.org · 4mo ago

Sound Transit can halve the cost of light rail to Ballard and West Seattle by building them as a connected automated light rail line with slimmer stations, according to two transit experts who have launched the Sound Transit Now campaign. Guest op-ed: www.theurbanist.org/op-ed-reconn...

debating writing a personal activitypub server that also functions as an atproto PDS. that way i can talk to my friends on either platform easily.

clearly, it is time to go back to linkedin, the premier social network for professional posters

Bluesky is a fun toy but for serious posters like myself the uptime is frankly unacceptable. I require enterprise-level availability and durability SLAs for any website where I'm going to post. I'm going to have my SRE team start looking into other options for my posts.

while i haven’t personally validated anthropic’s claims about mythos, there’s enough there to run a useful thought experiment. what happens when APT-level capability is available to anyone with $200/month?

oh cool, my canon laser printer only works with proprietary drivers 🙃

alpine has surpassed 100,000 pull requests on gitlab: gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aport...

half tempted to change my linkedin headline to "chief rabbit officer at @edera.dev"
