In watching more Star Trek stuff it seems that the Federation has somehow achieved near perfection with their communication technology. People can have audio/visual communication in real-time with someone else that's incredibly far away without having to wait minutes/hours/days/weeks/months/years.2017-06-20T16:23:38Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC:

Slarl jix is the new word/phrase of the day. It came from an OCR error. What should it mean?
Nah, I'm not looking to figure out what it really was (I already know.) More about creating a new language based upon OCR errors. :)2017-06-08T21:38:30Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC:

Don't know how it got on me but I felt something on my arm, looked, and it was a small green caterpillar walking on my arm. Returned it to a tree outside. I've done my good deed for the day. Can I go home now?2017-06-03T04:34:18Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC:

Hacking away on perl.
Hmm. Why hasn't this program changed? I did edit the right file, right? Yup. Hmmm.
Oh, I forgot to save the file. So stupid. *hit forehead*Christopher Allan Webber likes this.

I'm working on paring down my belongings. Does anyone want a poster about the history of operating systems? (GNU is in there, of course.) It's several feet wide so it needs space. Contact me and I'll mail it to you, gratis.GNUstav Huarcaya, George Standish, Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠), Christopher Allan Webber likes this.

Oooh. I wish I could convince myself that I could take well care of it and put it on the wall it deserves. That is a beautiful poster.
Maybe it's a nice present for the technology classroom in a nearby highschool.

WOW...
Hooray for more cooperation and less proliferation!Similarly, we would like to work closely with librecore, another project working to deblob coreboot, whose team includes Damien Zammit. Once librecore matures, libreboot plans to switch to librecore in lieu of our current deblobbed fork. That is, there will be less duplication of effort; instead of competing with librecore, libreboot will complement it.

I'm not touching this project. After the fireworks that happened, I don't want to be involved with it. It is good to see that there is new management although the issue of substance abuse being addressed openly disturbs me greatly.
After the dramatic break from the FSF, frankly I still want to stand back and "observe only". Lability can be a liability.2017-04-01T00:48:18Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC:

"Leahboot previously used coreboot; however, it was discovered that an opponent of gay marriage donated to the coreboot project. Since then, we have switched to using blobs of the Windows kernel to boot." I am just confused at this point. Is this a weird trolling activity?Oh goodness...
