@billgoats Did this to my Kindle 4 from 2011 a few months ago. Now it has ePub support *g*
The most important things first: we’re safe.
In today’s episode of „things I don’t need to experience again“: a wildfire just about 15km away.
The great folks at @revolutionsoftware@mastodon.gamedev.place are back!
After remastering the first part of the Broken Sword saga, now it is time for Smoking Mirror!

Can we have a weekend without kernel exploits please
okay, trying to find a "sane" commit on libgd's main branch is not too easy.
The current stable version seems to start to fall apart in newer PHP versions (mainly the test suite, nothing to worry in prod), so I'm really tempted to get an intermediate version in #gentoo...
Another day, another #hugo deprecation notice. 🫠

@fuchsiii@oxytodon.com Yes, using an LLM for that is not optimal. I usually rely on grammarly.com for grammar checking, but I want to get rid of that.
This is basically an experiment to see how far I can go with a local LLM on a small-ish VPS with no GPU.

@blp I know it is horribly outdated, but it still feels wrong to see support for i486 vanish :/
Of course, why not
We ran Doom on a 40 year old printer controller (Agfa Compugraphic 9000PS)
My sleep cycle is broken, I’d like to return it. (Sent at 3am local time)
This weekend's objective: bump the ScummVM Snap package to core24 and the current GNOME extension.
And yes, I still have to re-do some of the Snaps published under my name...
My brain at 02:34am:
Hocus pocus

Weekend project: setting up Forgejo, neatly packaged into one Docker file that provides all components:
* PostgreSQL as database engine
* Redis for caching
* Anubis as WAF
* Caddy for the reverse proxy
* Forgejo itself
Anything I could add? 😁
Taking bets! Another kernel exploit this weekend?

@roman78 Ah, thank you - then there's a 0% chance I have it somewhere in my collection 😁
Should I try Linux From Scratch?

And another thing: every time I clone a fairly large repository, the initial step takes quite long, almost like compression going on on the remote each and every time.
Couldn’t replicate this with GitHub, so not really sure where to look into.
Okay, so, err, #ollama runs surprisingly well on CPU-only when using smaller models. And now I have a cursed idea.
No, not content generation, but meta-data handling and grammar checking.
Now that’s a weird one. Enabling the test suite causes spurious error at the later install stage… probably some leftovers being pulled in or variable override?
Ooops, looks like it has been quite a while since I updated my MSYS2 environment for the last time:
```
Total Download Size: 499.42 MiB
Total Installed Size: 3196.79 MiB
Net Upgrade Size: -86.09 MiB
```
Okay, so _something_ (either Debian or Proxmox update) nuked my custom sysctl.conf because apparently now the sysctl rules live below /etc/sysctl.d/.
No, the file was not moved to the new location, it was DELETED.
And yup, that broke IPv6 on the VMs because no more NDP forwarding. GREAT.
