My psychiatrist asked me "Have you ever thought about killing yourself?" And I was like "WTF, what kinda advice are you giving me, this is horrible you should be helping me not killing me."

"Resilience" has become a dark pattern. Ordinary resilience is a good thing, the ability to recoup from a setback.
"Resilience" as capitalist society frames it is the imperative to endure an endless series of existential challenges and remain produtive.
A few folks have asked about the new Dell 52” 6kish display. It's interesting but I have a feeling its DPI is in a super oddball zone that'd look kind of terrible on Mac. Price is also pretty crazy. This is a super niche display, not really sure who its for but not me.

Mastodon got a working implementation of a thread collection (context). I'm adding it to the list of implementations in FEP-f228: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/pulls/745

Was reading French “oh no snow!” news so decided to check the traffic. I am amuse.
@zkatkat thanks for hosting this discussion, it helped clarify some things that were previously quite vague for me
especially that the structure of a project matters much more than its licence
it strikes me that the projects that have been successful under capitalism (in that they serve their users well and their contributors are able to make a living) have a good diversity of orgs that are active users of the software, so that the people involved have a decent choice of places to work
the asf fairly deliberately tried to structure itself to support projects which operate like that, albeit not entirely successfully
the rhetoric around free software and open source has very often minimized that aspect of how projects work in practice, or even denied it outright by claiming that contributors are doing it in their spare time
which has done younger programmers a disservice by talking up false narratives of what careers in open source look like
compounded by ways of doing open source such as npm or github that are far less community-oriented than the prominent projects when i started out decades ago
there’s a lot more small-project open source than there used to be, and i don’t know of any practical examples of ways to make them sustainable other than luck; and even medium-sized projects are pretty precarious
and yeah this mostly reflects that living under capitalism is precarious
i love the idea of collectivist community-oriented projects that take a firm ethical stance
the sustainable projects that i know of mostly got there by luck, but i wonder if there are lessons to be learned that could increase the chances of replicating the trick deliberately…
dunno, except i’m pretty sure there are more useful examples from outside software of how to organise people :-)
There may be those in Europe who are less than forceful... but this is the Chair of Austria's "NATO Enlargement Committee”. And he's not taking any shit from the USA. If they attack or otherwise “acquire" Greenland, then Europe will take control of all the USA bases in Europe and defend itself.
I really hope that the folks behind 
@AsahiLinux know how much I appreciate their work.
I recently started backing them on Open Collective. They appear to be actively working on adding new features, and I've even seen demos of the M3 now popping up on other platforms. They're well worth your support if you'd like to see support for alternatives to macOS on Apple Silicon grow.

Petaluma and Morgan Hill are being sued by the US govt on the basis of local ordinances banning gas in new builds.
Some may remember Petaluma was the first city in the nation to also ban the building of new gas stations. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-sues-two-california-cities-over-limits-gas-new-buildings-2026-01-06/

Okay so...
If you buy a new mug, and the first use it develops a hairline fracture when pouring boiled water into it
Would you consider replacing it, thinking this was a one-off flaw, or would you return it, thinking the design of the mug is flawed altogether?
I am equally surprised that;
a) they are making another Shrek movie, and
b) they're only up to number 5.

Debugging some #asahilinux USB issues with 
@janneJanne Grunau and right now it looks like ATCPHY is even more cursed than we thought: At boot time, macOS powers up the usb2 PHY once, switches it to host mode and immediately shuts it down again even when no device is connected. I missed this so far but it looks like we actually need this if we want usb2 devices plugged in during boot to work reliably 🙃
