Porting systemd to musl libc-powered Linux

A. Wilcox, the original creator of AdΓ©lie Linux, has ported systemd to musl, the glibc alternative.

I have completed an initial new port of systemd to musl. This patch set does not share much in common with the existing OpenEmbedded patchset. I wanted to make a fully updated patch series targeting more current releases of systemd and musl, taking a

As the Supreme Court takes more of our rights away, the MAGA justices are living it up with lavish gifts from billionaire donors. It doesn't have to be this way! The Senate has the power to rein in this corrupt SCOTUS. Email your senators and urge them to take action. act.indivisible.org/letter/ema…

There was another way we could have gone with all this crap. Instead of a constant battle of monopolists we could have demanded (and enforced via regulation) open standards for all this shit. "RFC BlahBlah: A Standard for Processing Financial Transactions via NFC".

People forget that there was a tiny, and I mean fucking infinitesimal, window where Apple Pay worked with pretty much every NFC-enabled POS terminal, supported or not. Then everybody got all siloed up.

Do you use DSpace or DSpace-CRIS? There are new features in these open source systems contributed by @4Science that use ROR to improve organization metadata. Come to a webinar on October 3 to learn more. ror.org/events/#new-features-f…



In the runup to #FediForum, I'm curious to hear if anyone has any hot takes about the future of the #fediverse. There's an incredibly strong case to be made for orgs to move away from Twitter, but the majority of people (aka managers in organizations that currently run a Twitter account) I've come across who share this view see Mastodon as a non-starter because "its confusing" or "its missed its window" (not my opinions BTW). They'd rather invest org resources into building a presence on Threads or BSky.

My thought is that by investing in #Fedi you can get a wildly outsized voice in a really grassroots network, but a lot of times that lands on deaf ears.
