Was confused why Ghost wasn't importing my content, turns out I just didn't get to the step that actually performed the import because side quests, lol.
Good news for those who were subscribed to the #GNOME releases/development schedule using #GNOMECalendar or 
@EvolutionGnomeGNOME Evolution: as per https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Websites/release.gnome.org/-/issues/55, the calendar HTTP and webcal links on https://release.gnome.org/calendar/ have been fixed today.
Those calendars now officially live on that subdomain, so you may want to update the subscription URLs in your app.

Wow, this is great. #BRAHMAN are a relatively "old school" (すみません😊) Japanese punk band, but this sounds super fresh.
What's off to the side when I'm having lots of meetings, or that I'm snacking on afterwards.
One subtle difference between the scientific approach to truth and non-scientific approaches is that the former places (or aims to place) a high value on *accuracy*, while the latter often places a high value instead on *inerrancy*. The two objectives, though superficially similar, are actually not the same, and in fact opposed to each other in some fundamental ways. ("The perfect is the enemy of the good".)
By valuing inerrancy, one seeks to claim authority through never making, or at least never admitting, an error or mistake. If there is a conflict between one's authoritative statements and external observations or events, there is thus the incentive to find a rationalization that retains the former at the expense of the latter. To quote from "The Simpsons": "Am I so out of touch? No, it is the children who are wrong".
Inerrancy is a binary concept - one is either inerrant, or one is not (and in the majority of situations, the latter is actually the case). In contrast, accuracy is a continuous concept - perfect accuracy is generally impossible outside of purely mathematical situations, and so the realistic objective is instead to achieve gradually higher, but still imperfect, levels of accuracy through better use of observations, models, and theory. This attitude is perhaps exemplified by George Box's well known dictum: "All models are wrong. Some are useful."

I wonder what the big difference between the immigrants that are to be feared and expelled, and the immigrants that are given full access to every government database and allowed to hang out in the oval office.
I wonder what it is... Total mystery, no one can really say for sure...

@stefanoStefano Marinelli Great to hear! Have a nice weekend!
Discord embeds for Mastodon posts are getting a lot better! You should see better images and videos, better formatting, better context styling, and support for embedding a wider variety of posts. This is rolling out now, so you should see it start to take effect in the coming hours. Let me know if you run into any problems!
fediverse dev friends:
i have a custom activitypub server running locally on my machine. i want to test its activitypub implementation against a (local?) mastodon server *without* exposing anything to the public internet.
what's the simplest way to do this?
how do AP devs usually test this stuff without exposing works-in-progress to the public internet?
ty!
@edwellbrookEd I've just spent the last couple of weeks getting this cleaned up. I'd love to hear how it works for you, if you use it

I'm a member of the Dublin Local Enterprise Office group for Women in Business and we do weekly Zoom meetings. Sometimes it's just a coffee meetup, sometimes it's a talk from a member who shares their expertise on a niche subject.
Today that expert was me! 🎉
My expert talk was a very condensed primer on FOSS and The Fediverse where I only uhm a million times. 
@mastodonie gets mentioned a bit 😉
For a limited time only you can watch it here!
There it is! Finally, a real solution for how to style all of the HTML form controls using your own custom CSS to change anything — building on an interoperable UA set of defaults. It only took 30 years!
First will be the chance to style the “in-page” controls (the part embedded in the webpage), plus the popover for <select> (the part that appears “over top of” the page). Later we’ll do popovers for more things — like the date picker, etc.

this FreeBSD rc.d issue with ntpd/svcj is actually pretty interesting and affects more than ntpd -- i think it's broken nfsd too, although i didn't test that. and it's not clear how to fix it.
the basic problem is that with svcj enabled, ${svc}_precmd is run in a different shell than ${svc}_start, which means environment changes from precmd aren't visible in the start function. since ntpd sets $command_args in precmd, this means it starts without any command-line args.
overriding ${svc}_start is not desirable because then you miss all the magic that rc.subr does in its default start method, including the svcj stuff.
running precmd in the svcj before start doesn't work either, because ntpd needs to load a kernel module in its precmd.
i think the only fix here is to split precmd into two things, perhaps one called 'setup’ that does what precmd does now, and ‘precmd' that runs before start in the svcj. then ntpd's 'setup' could load the kernel modules etc., and its 'precmd' could set the command line args.
unless anyone has a better idea?

実家のIPアドレスが変化したのでsshdへの攻撃の再開にどれくらい時間がかかるのか調べてみました。/var/log/auth.logにsshdが"refused connect from"を記録した回数は、IPアドレスが変化した2025-03-20 16:00 UTCごろに減って、13時間後の2025-03-21 05:00 UTCごろに元に戻っていました。その前にもちょろちょろアクセスは来ていたので、攻撃対象のIPアドレスを見つけるのにかかる時間は13時間よりも短く、攻撃元のクラスタが攻撃対象のIPアドレスのリストを同期するのに半日くらいの時間がかかるということなのかもしれない。
