Maybe I should just change the client I use to one that asks for confirmation, if there is one

Oh this is embarrassing, like wearing the band shirt to see the band (selfie, ec, large herbivores)
CW: I don't even know? Related to gender but it's about color assignments in google assistant and "political correctness", so maybe just CW: stupidity?
What the hell. How can you look at those colors and think about political correctness lol
And I think there's a few more voices (maybe it depends if you use british english or american or something like that), with completely different colors...
what
it's always DNS
every now and then my containers VM was losing access to LDAP which meant I cannot log in with my main user and all the services were inaccessible
for some reason it wasn't able to access DNS to resolve the local `ldap.l.r23s.eu` domain
idk, I blame systemd-resolved or something

This is a long shot, but I want to put the power of social media and federation to the test.
My son wants to become a commercial airline pilot when he’s grown up. It would be awesome if we could find a commercial pilot in the fediverse that we can follow and ask questions of.
If everyone who reads this could boost it, it would be much appreciated and it would mean the world to my son if he could get in touch with a real-life commercial pilot! ✈️

Sure, it sucks that the web was turned into a horrendous bloated platform for applications — but when you consider that the alternative we almost ended up with was everyone being forced to use Windows, it's not so bad.
I made a #Gemini browser for the #remarkable tablet
first alpha version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU89GdxsSAo
with a new layout engine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee8Wlmd-PqM

idea: a physics-based VR file merge tool, where you smash two files together and wherever the pieces fall that's the merge result
because rendering the actual stuff will probably take an entire core, I might use the second core to talk to other Picos over serial and provide them with an API to make graphical UI
I want to learn OS dev to make a distributed OS for a stack of $5 Pico's
and given that we have VGA output implemented, it can even have an UI
other weird device stuff that makes programming fun:
Raspberry Pi Pico's PIOs!!!
it's so incredibly powerful and that's so surprising when you consider it's limitations (only 9 CPU instructions? no arithmetic except `JMP x--`? only 32 instructions to share among 4 PIOs? and we could make it output a VGA signal with just that!)
https://rmkit.dev/apps/sas simplicity of this is so refreshing
I'm making a libgen.rs client
next up: Gemini client
damn coding stuff for weird devices (e.g. reMarkable) makes it fun again

it's so obvious that abled people know how to make things accessible and just don't care usually.
there's this scene in Sex Education that takes place between two people on a very noisy dance floor.
Hand-drawn captioning was added that is *SO MUCH BETTER* than the closed caption stream, reflecting more of the emotion, tone and volume, as well as making it very easy to tell which person is speaking.
CARE ABOUT ACCESSIBILITY MORE, YOU FUCKS

I just reached up to the shelf my gemini server sits on and gave it a pat and told it "you're doing a good job".
