It's not that I don't think rtings deserves money, I'm just wondering how much hardware you need to buy in a typical year that 10$ per month or 45$ per year is *good value*. I don't think I usually do that.
“I wish it need not have repro'd on my machine,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to run such builds.”

#Trans folx in #Kansas given 1 day to surrender their (now invalid) IDs and driver's licenses to the state. As of tomorrow (Thursday), driving while trans is a class-B misdemeanor ($1000 fine and up to 6 months in jail).
The zero-grace-period execution means driving to turn in your license is a crime.
Oh yeah, this bill also enacted a bathroom bounty program allowing private individuals to sue trans folx for using the restroom.

Good question ..

Sign on a traffic pole:
Been waiting long?
That's because the council thinks someone in a car, half a kilometer away, is more important than you*.
They could make the lights change as soon as you press the button if they wanted, but they don't.
Complain to them 07 3403 4400.
A car moving at 50km/hr will travel almost half a kilometer in 30 seconds.

Managed to migrate 20 repos off of Github today. Two went public on codeberg, 18 got moved to my "archive" org on my local forgejo.
53 to go, with the target number not being zero, but probably around 10, mostly forks.

I'm a little disappointed the NetBSD install failed, so what I'm left with is now:
* 2 gaming PCs with Windows (10+11)
* 2 gaming laptops with Windows (10+11)
* 3 machines with Arch Linux (laptop, NUC, server)
* 2 laptops with OpenBSD
* 1 Raspberry Pi with FreeBSD
* 2 macbooks with different versions of macos
7 vs 12, ignoring Android and mikrotik's RouterOS
Well, today is the day. I'm finally "sorta happy enough to pull the trigger" on publishing the book I've been working on for a very long time. It's a technical history book: by a techie, for techies (although I think that between all the code samples, there is plenty of meat for "tech-adjacent" and "tech-interested" people). It tells the story of the Lisp programming language, invented by a genius called John McCarthy in 1958 and today still going strong (to the extent that many people see it as the most powerful programming language in existence).
And this is a time for shameless self promotion, even if you don't plan on buying the book, please repost :-). Self-publishing is self-marketing, so there we go.
If you do buy and read it, please let me know how you liked it!
