Hello I am Thomas. I like robots and am working on a board game where mutants quest in a maze of robots.

Yesterday I've spent approximately half of the workday waiting for the #Python interpreter to start up in debug mode. Why is it so slooooow? It's the worst debug experience... oh, wait. There is also everything JS. This is the worst debug experience.


The rtl8192e wifi driver which sits in the #LinuxKernel's staging area for a while now is going to be removed from #Linux #kernel 6.13 to enable cleaning up lib80211.

You must be f* kidding me, #python communty! The most common langserver must be installed with npm? really?

And when I do, it doesn't play along with venv, the most common version manager for python?

I don't know why I keep being suprised by the constant state of brokenness in these (Ruby, Python, JS) ecosystems. And why people seem to just accept this as normal.

In battleground states, it's not just about winning — but also losing by less


In a state where every vote matters, both Democratic and Republican campaigns are not only trying to win in counties where they’re strongest, they’re also trying to lose by less.

Il y a des chances, s'il veut continuer son "travail d'artiste", qu'il rétropédale comme pour le 11 septembre. Il a de bonnes intuitions parfois ce garçon, mais pas les gonades pour les assumer.


#Gaza #Palestine

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has postponed his trip to Washington, which was scheduled for 8 October, due to opposition from PM Benjamin Netanyahu, who reportedly first wants cabinet approval for a plan to attack Iran and to speak with US President Joe Biden.

Haaretz reported that according to sources familiar with the matter, Netanyahu wanted the security cabinet to approve plans for an attack on Iran prior to Gallant’s departure.

The art is great, and the artist is great (*waves paw* this isn't aimed at you Sylvia), but could you PLEASE not push the narrative that only humans are allowed to make art? That only humans are real?

I AM A WOLF AND MY ART IS ART.

Thanks.

@IceWolf Thank you! I am very sorry. I bet this misunderstanding happens too often by accident these days :(. AI messed a lot up (in some areas for the good like health treatments) and we are not yet used to it. Art will always be in/on e-art-h and soon also on other planets. You are wonderful 🐾 💚 .


The story of a disabled Palestinian woman burnt alive by an Israeli soldier


Hweihi was forced to hastily flee the tent the family set up in the courtyard of a school-turned-shelter in northern Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp.

This was because Israeli troops had suddenly begun to fire live bullets inside the school ahead of storming it during a devastating three-week assault on the camp in May.

Duaa, who was unable to speak or move, was left behind inside the tent because her father couldn’t carry her.

After the soldiers entered the school under the cover of heavy fire, men and women were separated.

Moments later, a soldier poured gasoline on dozens of tents in courtyards before setting them on fire.

His voice drowned out by the hammering blast of tanks and heavy gunfire, Hweihi stood watching silently and hopelessly.

“She was burnt alive while we couldn't move,” he said.

Support for changing the working directory with env(1) has just landed in #FreeBSD. It'll be a part of the upcoming 14.2-RELEASE.

cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?i…

What does that mean? Now you'll be able to run:

env -C /tmp make

Instead of:

sh -c "cd /tmp && make"

(Although to be fair make(1) is not the best example as it has its own -C flag.)

The -C flag is compatible with #GNU env as found on most #Linux distros.
