Happy to see the #ghostty 1.1 update. It actually has server-side decorations now, so relying on libadwaita for a title bar is a thing of the past. Props to mhashimoto and contributors!

Shout-out to the people who have written the #lenovo diagnostics UEFI. Some faulty USB device killed my laptop but even after reseating the battery and holding the power button for a while it "works" again except that Wifi seems to be really inconsistent...

SerpentOS does seem really interesting and useful though, but last time I tried it I got frustrated with some native library that wasn't available for something I needed. (I'm sorry I can't remember which library it was) So daily driving seemed hard, but now that this latest release is deemed alpha now I should probably check it out once more.

PS. quick correction, turns out the moss package manager *does* actually manage /usr and as such you still "don't get to touch it" like you could (probably not should) in a system like Debian.

Wow. This is #nixos -like rollbacks but without the occasional hassle of having to struggle with your nix config. Kinda sounds more useful if you don't care as much about declaring your /etc and /usr 😅

Inhoudswaarschuwing:lichtelijk politiek, woord van het jaar

Van Dale trekt de Woord van het Jaar-verkiezing 2024 in Nederland terug. https://www.vandale.nl/van-dale-trekt-de-woord-van-het-jaar-verkiezing-2024-in-nederland-terug

Vind ik eerlijk gezegd lichtelijk kinderachtig. Ik weet dat de woorden van het jaar soms politiek controversieel kunnen zijn, maar juist dan denk ik dat het werkt als een ludieke afspiegeling van de nederlandse taalcultuur. Zo was er eerder al het woord "prikspijt", wat net zoals dit jaar "transitiespijt" wat mij betreft een boodschap van dezelfde aard laat doorschemeren. Voor diegenen die de lijst van genomineerden dit jaar niet hebben gezien, zie het webarchief: https://web.archive.org/web/20241204225226/https://woordvanhetjaar.vandale.nl/nl

Interesting stat I found out about my own mastodon account through #phanpy, a 'minimalistic opinionated mastodon web client': I tend to post an original toot every 18-or-so boosts. Just so you know I'm very dissapointed in my creative/critical thinking /j (my profile [here](https://phanpy.social/#/toot.cat/a/113225633806063186) )

> However: the 18 months figure is deceptive, and deliberately so. Google may only retain your queries for 18 months, but it is silent on how long it retains the inferences from those queries.

I can give you a very straightforward answer to that. _Forever_, and it's public: trends.google.com. And there are probably more interesting stats behind-the-scenes...

Yesterday, my pc broke. I had turned it off and the next day it just wouldn't do anything until I fully cut power and removed the CMOS battery every timr. Turns out, it was a pesky BIOS update. Appearantly I haven't done one of this in 1,5 years. **That fixed it**. I've never heard of this before, how can this be??

It might be the case that my OS updated my CPU microcode, rendering it incompatible with a motherboard which did not yet have those security updates as well?

I noticed that, when you accidentally play two video's at the same time on #youtube, the other video will get automatically paused. At least, "it works on my machine" on #firefox. So how does it do that? I thought every tab had their own sandbox? Is ITC (Inter Tab Communication) a thing now? So many questions...

Just tried to login to my #dropbox (normie I know but I need something to replace obsidian sync). Got 2FA code in my mailbox. I copy pasted it as "848426 " with a space because I double-clicked the code in order to copy it. I get "something went wrong", removed the space, got in..... Do better Dropbox.

Oh, how life can be when your mind starts thinking multi-threaded all of a sudden... That really sucks because unintuitively you actually can't think anything useful anymore when that happens.

Does anyone relate? Could it be signs of ADHD?

Bought a refurbished #Thinkpad X1 carbon today for the relatively low price of €650 (they also installed a TB SSD). Very satisfied with it. I put pop!_os on it with a close 2nd of @serpentos (cmon, package manager in rust!). I tried that in a VM and liked it a lot but couldn't get it to work on real hardware.

Thanks to everyone who suggested buying a thinkpad to me in my last toot about it. The battery is not what it was, I'll get about 6 hours of battery life. I've heard/seen better in a thinkpad. But those can be replaced in the future. Nevertheless stellar value in this purchase in times of inflation and expensive everything.

Content warning:Donald Trump and his electoral campaign

I am not going to express my opinion on this subject matter, but "she will cause another world war" was the last argument I ever expected from him.
