For those not familiar with the matter, the state of #GNOME is such that:

- #systemd is not a hard compile time dependency
- systemd is a hard run time dependency for basic functionality

This means that right now, without applying any patches, you can run GNOME in two official conditions:

- GNOME with systemd and with basic functionality
- GNOME without systemd and without basic functionality¹

Awoooo

next time can mastodon get publicity in an external community that isn't a trashfire of ignoramuses hellbent on harassing people in github threads

I know that's a tough criteria for a community to meet these days but 🤞 anyway

of all people to disrespect someone else's identities, a crowd of people whose conduct is so far removed from the hacker ethic and ethos calling themselves "hackers" just because they interact with technology at all... should be the last to draw attention to themselves.

oh! i thought this was interesting

my therapists office has a new policy where they have to go over app permissions with their patients. it's a matter of ethics- they want to make sure that apps aren't accessing the microphone during sessions.

we really do live in a cyberpunk dystopia huh

@paul #Facebook goes to extreme lengths to try to identify people through image analysis.

They even patented a method for analysing dust/scratches on camera lenses, to identify the person taking the picture:

Speaking as a user — THIS 500 KB site is the web I want.

Speaking as someone who worries about the architecture of the web — I keep thinking that we’ve built a platform that is serves, in this example: 9% content, 91% ads and tracking.

This is one of the nicer cabin/bunkie plans I've come across. It's very detailed

https://www.timbermart.ca/sites/default/files/Bunkie-Plan.pdf [PDF]

I'd probably not use the front window and just use a door with a 9-light built in (it's harder to heat a small space in winter with too many windows and harder to cool in the summer)

I'd also leave the "sleeping loft" for storage. Having to climb up a ladder when you're sleepy (or sick) can be a bummer. And maybe extending living space to the porch is an option

So not that I am going to go back to it any time soon but I just fell down a Skyrim mod browsing rabbit hole and found THE objectively best mod:

IMMERSIVE LAUNDRY.

Look at that, #OpenBSD 6.3 has been released!

Highlights include massive improvement in support for #armv7/#arm64 platforms, #vmm virtualization on #amd64/#i386 platforms, #wifi (including roaming), more of the network stack is unlocked, and no artificial limits in #IPv6 autoconfiguration.
