I had a bad idea today and decided to pursue it. It was fun! Here's how to convert an OpenSSH ed25519 key to a Tor hidden service key. https://t.co/7xYlwPGzdZ

@mrled

Really wish there was an account-level switch for "stop fucking apologizing to me". I don't need the machine to cringe away from me like a mistreated child in a YA novel. https://t.co/WL7C7cD5Hf

"but i would never ask u to do something i wouldn't do. i'm always the backstop, no matter what. u can always call me if the bugs are overwhelming defenses on a planet past the asteroid belt and our rocket survivability is too low to get enough supplies out there, day or night."

@mrled

"we really need to fix the on-call rotation for remote bases", they will tell u, "i want to protect ur time but if there's a coronal mass ejection headed to a planet without an umbrella or something we just need people to log on and deal w it, there's no way around it"

@mrled

"oh yeah", members of the third group will say, "i used to love logging in and getting my hands dirty like u guys, but i decided i really liked the impact i could have at a high level if i stayed logged out and just enabled u to do ur best work"

@mrled

Megabase? lol. u haven't scaled your Factorio game until your friends are querying game state for metrics (resources/SPM/...) and other friends are playing in groups w competing goals managed by still other friends who measure the 2nd group according to reports from 1st group

RT @militant_incel: would you guys be mad if i named my kid salesforce

@mrled

Stack Exchange should copy "what links here?" from Wikipedia, but that work for the whole web. Would be really neat to see blog posts or comments on Github that link to a given question. Especially questions with no answers!

The only use I've ever found for AWS Lambda. https://t.co/GKgosGdBVj

@mrled

Probably going to just retire this account. Goodbye, Pat. https://t.co/PQp3JyiLQT

@mrled

Looks like this broke finally :( https://t.co/vWYh9D79Pm

@SalaciousPat

Well, Twitter stopped letting me authenticate apparently. So long and thanks for all the "fish" ;)

@mrled

Now Fastmail says I need to use three CNAMEs instead. https://t.co/IO47U0NWF6

@mrled

But Cloudflare says that the RFC actually requires TXT, even though "in some caes, domains have stored their DKIM records as CNAME" https://t.co/sv3aaR4zgq

@mrled

I fixed it on my domains, but I don't really understand how it works behind the scenes (is it... time for me to host my own email???????? no), so I'm curious what changed

@mrled

Is there a history of valid (or widely accepted) DKIM records anywhere? Confused by apparently broken DKIM setup on Fastmail today that used to work.

@mrled

My mail (https://t.co/60ZyrDHv9E) is hosted with Fastmail, and I had DKIM set up properly in the past. I used a TXT record on mesmtp._domainkey.micahrl.com.

@mrled

RT @ARGGENT3: https://t.co/JK9zr6X1H7

@mrled

It's interesting to me that work email requires signing in every two weeks, but only on desktop, I assume because people would just not tolerate that on their phones, and work would rather send email to phones than have you enter a password that often.

@mrled

we need a meme account that just takes urbit tweets, screenshots then, and replaces "urbit" with "windows"

@mrled

Wish there were more people supporting @ArchiveBoxApp's maintainer @thesquashSH on GitHub Sponsors. ArchiveBox is really useful and there's a ton of work that needs to get done. https://t.co/pt89UuiDM8

@mrled

Anyway the fix is "brew uninstall watchman" and then I can install the thing I actually wanted. Was fast after that, phew.

@mrled

Homebrew allows a failure when trying to upgrade an unrelated piece of software to fail the installation of the software the user explicitly wants to install.

@mrled

I didn't ask for watchman to be upgraded at all, and it isn't a dependency. If the upgrade process isn't working, can't watchman just stay at its old version while the thing I am actually trying to install is installed? I don't understand this at all.

@mrled

Last night, 'qmk setup' could install 'arm-none-eabi-gcc', but it took about 2.5 hours to come to that conclusion.

@mrled

Today I try again. It fails to install watchman, tooling that observes filesystem updates that is used for hot code reloading by React and React Native. This is failing to install because "ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64" which means who fucking cares

@mrled

It's a new day. I've completed my vendor-mandated Rapid Security Update ritual, stopped every program I was running, and started them again. I have work to do, maybe I can get homebrew to do its time intensive tasks while I am in meetings or something.

@mrled

How the fuck did we get here. Oh yes, the system vendor hates you and the open source community hates the system vendor. As it ever was.

@mrled

i bet i have no pictures of any of that, since i didn't have a camera back then. damn. i loved that rack and i really loved the machines i put into it. those ultra 2 boxes had some custom third party case. I had quad 100mbit ethernet in those fuckers. king shit

@mrled

macOS Xcode + Homebrew reminds me a lot of trying to get apache httpd to build on Solaris 7. The system vendor hates you, and the open source community hates the system vendor, and the C compiler is a golem crafted from spite and standards manuals.

@mrled

No I'm not old enough to have done that professionally but yes I did it in a sweltering hot bedroom with kickass rackmount Ultra 2 boxes in these sweet heavy steel cases, in an actual rack which I somehow got upstairs. Not sure why my parents allowed that come to think of it.

@mrled

not my day today. Fighting Alpine Linux which will not let my flash this board, probably some issue where qmk expects systemd udev but I'm not sure. Decided to try macOS because it's what everyone uses, surely that's the path of least resistance. kill me

@mrled

idk man. i give up. after getting qmk itself installed, 'qmk setup' needs to install arm-none-eabi-gcc which apparently requires installing a bunch of compilers (ok), gtk+, kubernetes-cli, three different python versions, the unbound dns server, and 80 other things. bedtime.

@mrled

@Jowjoso how is there nothing better out there yet, everything about it is so bad

@mrled

@joshsojoshsoj i'm dying

@joshsojoshsoj

@mrled Omg. I used brew to install ffmpeg last week. It was a mistake...

50 minutes later https://t.co/JgPHguxoVh

@mrled

It's literally compiling Python a second time? Is this a joke https://t.co/OvcKPBmkpF

@mrled

I'm realizing that this is all in service of installing Python. That only makes sense, as QMK requires Python 3.7, and I only have 5 Python versions installed that meet this criteria, including the one that Homebrew is trying to upgrade right now. https://t.co/qPQyVPiMbU

@mrled

And there it is https://t.co/PX7N48LKdA

@mrled

FUCK https://t.co/u3xmQHxQnp

@mrled

I think there may have been some mistake. I want to install keyboard firmware :) can u please take a look in the back and see if u have any of that I could install :) :)

@mrled

HELP https://t.co/LpyPsqOQzP

@mrled

Literally who cares I want to install a package. apt can do this in 20 seconds. https://t.co/vExZLcch7G
