random socially-awkward transfem internet entity, pushing bits around, being a hardware magician (engineer) and nix cultist.

I am always happy to meet new people, but scared to get in touch myself, so feel free to reach out. I won't bite unless asked to :)
If you want to meet me IRL for some reason and are located around Berlin it might happen!

Aaaand manjaro once again managed to not renew their TLS certs. wonder if they just never set up a certbot or if it broke. honestly if you can't keep your TLS certs valid one probably shouldn't publish a linux distribution

@claesdevreese sadly that's only true if looks at electricity production exclusively. in total most of primary energy is still sourced from fossil fuels (ie. heating, etc)

@cyclopentane@rheinneckar.social i mean erofs is nice (and used by nixos for the underlying /etc if one opts into it), but this is really not great.

@Fingel@indieweb.social @YaLTeR@mastodon.online well the nixos CI needs to chew on it for a few days before one can actually get the package, so it doesn't matter much

@sodiboo the USB alt modes aren't exactly USB. they basically reconfigure the signal lines to do stuff simmilar to displayport/hdmi instead of wrapping everything in USB requests iirc the spec correctly.

@ariaflame @claesdevreese sure, but at the current rate it will take many decades to remove all usage of fossil fuels, especially in transportation and the industrial sector

@ariaflame @claesdevreese the point where the effects are manageable already requires negative emissions though. but it is indeed nice to see that some trends aren't working against us. but one still has to be careful and not focus on just electricity since the grand total still looks pretty bleak.

The moment when you test the copyfail exploit on a machine due to a "if you root this machine you get a beer" bet only to find out the kernel version is too old. guess i have to get the dirtycow out instead
