I'm a touch disappointed that @BryanLunduke decided not to use any poems from Mastodon in his poetry jam. I was really proud of mine.
I think he forgot about us.
"According to all known laws of computing, there is no way that #Emacs should be able to edit. Its bytecode engine is just too old to get those fat buffers off the ground. Emacs, of course, edits anyway, because Emacs doesn't care what humans think is impossible."
Hypothesis: Software would be way more efficient if all development happened on low- to mid-tier hardware.
Spent a good 5 hours trying to get Mastodon up and running on a dedicated (clean) server. Tried the standalone approach. Tried the docker approach. Tried on Debian. Tried on Ubuntu 16.04.
Ah, well. Giving up for the day. Might need to enlist some assistance in figuring out where I might have gone wrong (or of I'm justing hitting a known issue).
Would be cool to have a self-hosted instance for me and my community... if I can figure out how. :)
Gaming on Linux can now be supported on Liberapay !
Liberapay is a donations platform to help you fund the creators and projects you appreciate.
In comparison to more well known Patreon, The FEES ARE LOWER, you can also put a lump sum into your "wallet" to then dish it out to anyone on the service.
Liberapay is run transparently by a non-profit organization, its source code is open, public.
'drawing pins'.
I've always wondered.
'thumb tacks'.
Mastodon.
And then I was enlightened.
I was looking to buy some drawing pins on eBay and I came across this entry. This is one of the most amusing eBay sales pitches I've ever come across.
@TheGreatDistraction It's an absolute problem in part of the industry.
I've observed that many of the people who fight for "equality" in other forms... also actively belittle those with any religious faith.
Awesome. Today is a good day.
Linux Day is almost upon us at the #LundukeShow! Got questions? Got topics you'd like us to address?
Ask here so we see 'em!
Next April, at LinuxFest Northwest, I will prove -- once and for all -- that I am a lying liar-pants.
Also, the call for submissions to present at the one-and-only LinuxFest Northwest... is now open.
Highly recommended.
We need to go baaaack!

This, right here, is the face of a man whose pants are on fire.
It's almost like he KNEW this wasn't going to be the last Linux Sucks.
FOR SHAME!
Wow, the Mob song from Beauty and the Beast sound absolutely brutal as a metal cover.

Trying something dorky this week. This Friday: a video of me reading Linux poetry.
Along with my poems... I think it'd be cool to read some from the community. Specifically short stuff. Limerick, Haiku, etc.
Reply here so I see 'em.
Will this be cool? Who knows! :)
This week on the #LundukeShow:

Hmmm, it seems like open-source alternatives to Android are really quite limited. According to ItsFoss.com Sailfish OS isn't even open-source. I hope the Librem phone can remedy this.
i've always wondered how people steal passwords
we should ban tweezers
When a company/organization imposes DRM, censorship, or access restrictions...
But, publicly, says they are fighting against DRM, censorship, or access restrictions... Something is up.
Eyebrows, everywhere, should be raised.
