Every now and then I remember that #emacs has calc (a reverse polish notation calculator) and it is an absolute joy to use.

What is an obscure yet affordable device that I could get with the sole purpose of running #netbsd on it?
llm: the build fails
llm: *thinking*
llm: the build failure is pre-existing so I'll ignore that
narrator: the build failures were in fact not pre-existing
New year, new attempt at rolling my own #emacs config from scratch
@evgandr@mastodon.bsd.cafe That was an interesting read. Seeing "ZFS is piggy" written there made me chuckle
Ever since I got this new modem from my ISP, I wanted to set it up to use my own DNS server instead of whatever it gets from the ISP. The poor device resisted all my attempts, up until now. The fields for configuring it were there in its management interface, but all the fields I wanted to change were disabled.
Today I thought "what the heck, it's worth a try". I fiddled with the DOM of the config form for a while, made those input elements enabled, removed `display: none` from some other elements, typed in the address to the newly appeared input and submitted that.
Lo and behold, the management interface now looks somewhat broken, but it now seems to work the way I want.
I must say I'm pretty pleased with how the solution for day 3 of #adventofcode in #clojure turned out
