Sorry to interrupt what I want to be a mostly positive timeline for a PSA. If I hear the argument that this change “wastes so much collective time to implement for DEI” again I might go on a small rant about the seniority you claim to have in our field and how you cosplay knowledge of the tools you use daily. (For everyone who simply doesn’t know it yet because they are new to this:it’s cool, we’ve all been there. This rant wasn’t meant for you. It’s a one line change)

Git 3.0 will use main as the default branch

A quiet but important milestone for Git.

I’ll likely migrate my ML system from Bazzite to Arch. I’ve been using Arch since the mid 2ks and the total time spend fixing stuff breaking during updates is far less than making Fedora Atomic understand how to start a docker image with and Nvidia GPU to pass through. (Yes, I now to add security opts to a perfectly fine working compose files and it works on a Debian box.) Bazzite is amazing as a gaming distro. Fedora Atomic itself is also fine for most use cases. But death by 1000 cuts.

Neighbor: “We can make a WhatsApp group!” “I don’t have WhatsApp. Only email and iMessage or SMS.” (I don’t even try with Delta or Signal) “Are you living in the past?” “No, I just don’t use Meta products” “Wow, that’s sad. Must suck for you” She was dead serious with a “poor little you, are you okay? Does it hurt?” I didn’t have such a “wave and smile” moment in a long time.

I was excited when I got a 48GB stick DDR5 sodimm for 90€ in October as someone likely mad a small mistake with the Amazon listing. I would have never predicted it might be worth more than the laptop its in at some point.

An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it

You can spend $50 more to get an entire PS5 Pro.
