Came here to read spicy takes on infosec topics -- staying for the cats.
I write code for a living. Sometimes it even works.

@evan@cosocial.ca @johl@mastodon.xyz fun fact: there is a feud between Hamburg and Berlin, regarding the question who really invented the currywurst.
When I went to school in Hamburg, we had to read this novel about the "invention": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invention_of_Curried_Sausage

I suspect this part (from the second proposal) would be even harder to achieve than enforcing the first proposal :D
Like, maybe there will be a couple of hours saved by using an LLM, but then you need to hire a whole team for a year to figure out where the output came from, and if any of it is licensed under conflicting terms 👻

@baldur@toot.cafe I feel the same.
Another thing that I've noticed is how PR descriptions have gotten longer as people start using LLMs, and they have become less useful in the process.
I believe the logic is: a good PR description is long and detailed, to make it easier on the reviewer.
In reality though, the description ends up containing a lot of unnecessary fluff, and makes it *harder* for me to review.
A single sentence by a human, pointing me to the one or two things to look out for / that aren't obvious are a lot more helpful than a long text, which recaps all the changes that the PR contains.

@filid@norden.social ich habe eine Swissonic Webcam 3, und bin sehr zufrieden. Gutes Bild, eingebautes Licht, magnetische Abdeckkappe, und funktioniert out-of-the-box auf Linux Maschinen.

"In der Bevölkerung habe Klimaschutz nicht den Stellenwert, den das Thema in der Politik derzeit genieße, ..."
es ist genau anders herum, Politiker unterschätzen den Stellenwert den Klimaschutz in der Bevölkerung hat: https://news.rub.de/presseinformationen/wissenschaft/2026-06-23-studie-deutsche-politiker-unterschaetzen-die-unterstuetzung-fuer-klimaschutz

@Papeleo@mastodon.social
@Papeleo@mastodon.social Ja, das stimmt. Theoretisch ist es auch möglich mit swapfile, aber dann muss man dem Kernel beim booten genau sagen bei welchem offset diese Swapfile auf der Festplatte liegt -- ist es nicht Wert üblicherweise. Und die Swap Partition muss auch größer sein als der gerade benutzte Arbeitsspeicher (um sicherzugehen, am besten größer als den verbauten Arbeitsspeicher machen).
Wenn du genau wissen willst ob Hibernation funktioniert, kannst du es im Terminal mit systemctl hibernate anstossen -- wenn es funktioniert, dann schläft dein Rechner, ansonsten wacht er gleich wieder auf, und du erhältst eine Meldung wieso es nicht geht.

Yeah, I find it strange as well -- it's not a secret, he's very open about it: https://valetudo.cloud/pages/general/why-not-valetudo/
re X40 ultra: looks like it uses the same rooting method (fastboot) as the one that I have. It's reasonably straight-forward except for one scary point, where you have 160 seconds to run some commands, and if you don't do it in time the robot will be bricked :D

@matze@lebalkon.de I've been using valetudo for a couple of months now. It's a great piece of software, so far no issues.
What I would recommend though is to *very* carefully read the instructions and caveats before buying a robot. There are some potential pitfalls, and the steps vary a lot by model.
I'm using this one: https://valetudo.cloud/pages/general/supported-robots/#l10s-pro-ultra-heat
One downside is that there is no community to ask for help, because the creator of Valetudo explicitly does not want that. Instead there are some telegram chats run by him, where you can ask for help, and he's a bit trigger-happy with banning people if he does not like the way questions are asked.

Two theories:
1. those aren't screws, but trimmers, allowing you to set 5 analog values (e.g. for volume fine tuning, equalizer, ...)
2. they are screws, but they are connected electrically, so you can "ground" yourself to 5 different voltage levels
Can't decide which I want to believe more.
