I've just wasted about 20 hours in total to, I kid you not, Windows 10's inconsistent use of case sensitive APIs.
Apparently you can find either of these depending on Windows 10's build or god knows what:
- HKCU\Software
- HKCU\SOFTWARE

Die SBB empfehlt mir die Schweiz weiter zu entdecken.
Die News empfehlen mir weiter zu hause zu bleiben '^^.
Ich wäre auch gerne Optimist abeeeer...

Heute bemerkt: morgen fängt Monat 6 meiner "sozialer Isolierung" an.
Trotz des Leids und der Leere, fühlt es sich langsam "normal" an; wozu will man Menschen um sich wieder? Ich vergesse es häufiger.

Different ways of reading the same news:

~~"US is not worthy of special treatment regarding data privacy and is to be considered a third country"
https://noyb.eu/en/cjeu

vs:

~~ "How dares the CJEU put privacy before the economy! Privacy Shield is good!"

It's official. #freebsd has become my go-to OS to test things.
Need to debug networking in a virtualisation environment? #freebsd's live "CD" it is.
Need to quickly test the deployment of X or Y? A #freebsd VM it is.

As of today I am supporting `main` as a git branch on all projects I touch.
Wherever possible I'll also disable `master`, but when it's not, `main` will be... the *main* branch.

Today I was thanked privately for creating and maintaining a #freebsd port.
This literally never happened in any other project I was involved in, and I am taking it as a sign of a healthy community.

Sooo.... iocage + vnet works super nicely on #freebsd. Somehow hadn't gotten around to testing, I guess the big warning about it being unstable on iocage's docs had something to do with me putting that off.

Regarding the whole antifa situation in the US, this is worth remembering…

It's also not just a US thing, I've heard very similar argumentations in the EU.

I just ran against a weird issue in a Debian Docker image where 'echo stuff > /dev/stderr' would **replace** stderr's current content with "stuff".

Had to s! > /dev/stderr! >> /dev/stderr!g to get the thing to work properly O.ô.

Wondering if it's a Docker thing.

2020: We have RFC6578 [1] since 2012 and still exactly zero decent WebDAV clients with synchronisation.

I'd even pay for something like mountainduck.io (even if it were OSS and free and whatever if they gave me the option), but mind you, it's only for Mac/Windows.

OSS things.

Ich finde es interessant, wie das Internet "denkt", dass "Liebeskummer" eine Sache exklusiv der Frauen wäre.

Redet ihr Männer etwa nicht darüber? Leidet ihr nicht daran?

🤦‍♀️ I just realised: echo 'a' | cut -d ',' -f 2
reuturns 'a' and not '' as I expected.

#RIPE80 on why IPv6 deployment is hard: "There are two kind of issues: technology and people. The former is easier than the latter and mostly solved."

I've been thinking a lot about this lately:
https://thecorrespondent.com/455/once-more-for-feeling-why-trying-new-things-is-overrated-and-repetition-is-vital-to-society/60193938805-824daa94

Our generalised "OH SHINY" culture is detrimental long-term if nobody is willing do the "boring" maintenance work.
Funnily enough, there is plenty of innovation waiting to happen at work in the latter.
And in inter-personal relationships, those are *precisely* the rewarding bits.

Sunny confinement activities: upgrading datacenterlight.ch #freebsd images (dualstack and IPv6-only). Automating the process while at it.

Learnt a thing or two of #freebsd
releng team's work with that, could come in handy some day.

The whole thing is obviously Open Source, like most things at ungleich.ch:

Me using Linux these days: ^T^T^T^T^T^T^T^T
#bsd things

TIL: not to add Glue Records *and* use that immediately as a Name Server.
Probably waiting it out a few days would have been better :-D.

OK, this "push to create repo" workflow on sr.ht: wonderful.

SourceHut really stays out of the way :-D.
