  #OmniOpenCon is an open source conference that takes place in Bucharest each year at the Politehnica University - not a very big thing, but for eg. last year there was a talk given by one of the developers of Collabora, there were features on new stuff in the RISC-V space, so it's not just an event for students. Last year I participated as that one weird person in the audience who didn't have a Github account and ran a QEMU of Alpine on a snail-pace notebook with no VT, this year I want...

  Been sinking my teeth over the last few days into #OpenBSD #VMM. Quite a bit unstable - maybe I'm allocating too little RAM or it's Xephyr putting too much stress?

  Greetings @jssfr . As you suggested, I got around trying @snikket_im ...and I encountered the following error. Which I'm not sure whether to blame on my iptables or on a dependency on systemd - I'm running OpenRC: Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to start shim: start failed: failed to create TTRPC connection: unsupported protocol: Yunix: failed to start containers: snikket

  Surprisingly, there are quite a few articles in Romanian about decentralized social media, but most of them are translations from crypto outlets focusing more on Web3 platforms like Nostr than on ActivityPub and ATproto. I'm preparing an article that will go more into the nuts and bolts of the latter two.

  This week I feel like debloating my nearly one year old #Alpine Linux install and trying some non-wlroots based Wayland compositor. Or maybe something based on the new river, if I can get it to compile.

  Having followed a tutorial, I could make #WireGuard wg-quick work on my #OpenBSD, but not without DNS query leaks, so I learned I must figure out #unbound - however, a noob like me can only seem to manage to fix configuration errors while unbound itself apparently won't start because of this (which I found out after learning there's more than one way to debug unbound - not elegant, imho): [1781449588] unbound[95585:0] error: bind: address already in use [1781449588] unbound[95585:0] fa...

  Just discovered #Gemini #BBS and apparently managed to sign up, but unable yet to confirm email - I tried with two email addresses and neither of them has received a confirmation mail, or at least not quickly... Guess I have to wait some more?

  Decided to let go of self-hosting purism and just signed up for a subdomain on Gemcities, so that now I could painlessly set up my first #gemspace capsule on the #Gemini protocol...

  Pure Linux in the guise of postmarketOS was a bit too hard to swallow for this 13-year-old tablet, lineageOS had to do the trick (I was not alone in this process, thanks to Y.). So this is going to be mostly a Termux+Emacs machine. Everything else so far works a bit wonky or not at all, which is to be expected. But at least now I have a slightly more comfortable device on which I can get more serious about learning Emacs.
