I deleted some abandoned accounts from my list of followers. It now say I have 0 followers even though I did not (obviously) remove everyone? What's up with that?

I have kept my phone on silent (no sound or vibration) for almost a week now and I quite enjoy the silence.

"TrueNAS 12.0-RC1 — iXsystems is pleased to announce the general availability of TrueNAS 12.0 Release Candidate 1! This is the first release candidate for the first unified FreeNAS and TrueNAS release, renamed to TrueNAS CORE and TrueNAS Enterprise, respectively."

You know that Apple has succeeded with marketing when people actually thinks that Apple cares about the user and their privacy.

I just bought a set of DUROCK silent linear switches with 62g springs from a keyboard friend. Let's hope they're worth their premium price!

"The Gentoo Distribution Kernel project is excited to announce that our new Linux Kernel packages are ready for a wide audience! The project aims to create a better Linux Kernel maintenance experience by providing ebuilds that can be used to configure, compile, and install a kernel entirely through the package manager as well as prebuilt binary kernels."

I asked @Fairphone if they have considered offering an actually fair phone without any unethical services from Google.

They never replied. It looks like their account is just a dummy account, which is only mirroring their content from the unethical service Twitter, with a bunch of unethical and insecure links from Bitly on top of that.

That's not very "fair" if you ask me.

Invite-based registrations in XMPP is a thing now. https://blog.prosody.im/great-invitations/ #XMPP

Fairphone would be really fair if they shipped their phone (or at least allowed the user to install) a Google-free version of Android on their phone without having to unlock the bootloader.

How do todays parents deal with kids wanting to join crap like "Barbie's VIP club" for some crap Barbie game where 95% of the game is behind a paywall?

How do you explain for them that the game is shit and that the developers only want to scam them for money?

This is epic UI design by Google.

The social dilemma is a documentary that's equally interesting as depressing. It's something I recommend everyone to watch if you have access to Netflix.

It's not stupid if it works!

I didn't realize I forgot to order stabilizers until now.

If I only had some switches, I could actually use this prototype now.

(This is not the final look, it will have an acrylic middle layer as well.)

I added support for night mode for my website. I don't use it myself, but it didn't require much effort and I'm sure some will like it.
