@stsp hey, if you're at the BSD thing in Ottawa and you happen to run across G. Clifford Williams, could you please either give him a warm hug or a respectful handshake from me, depending of course on his and your comfort levels?

This is what happens when you put the trans flag rotated 90º on top of the pride flag with difference blending.

It's like the queerest plaid. :D

Highly recommended. If we ever build a free and open hacker/activist university, this is how course material should look like!

has anyone played with the Banana Pi series at all? this looks like an appealing little board; it uses a lot of the same components as the pocketchip which sadly went defunct.

I would like to announce a public server running #brutaldon: brutaldon.online/

Brutaldon is a brutalist, Web 1.0 web interface for Mastodon. You can use it as a client for any instance. Currently you do not need a separate brutaldon account. It is compatible with almost any web browser, including text-mode browsers like lynx, w3m, or eww.

Screenshots, issues tracker, and source code are available at github.com/jfmcbrayer/brutaldo.

Have fun!

I really enjoyed the conference I was at the last two days, more so than I expected and despite my strong negative feelings about big crowds; but holy schmoly am I every happy to be going back to $JOB.

Not _because of_ $JOB, I should specify, but rather because I get to cycle in again.
