What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

My comments are littered with folks asking "why is it a problem if your blocklist is public on Bluesky?"

I'm glad you asked.

"Who you block" is a reasonable indicator of your personal alignments. If you block TERFs, you're likely trans-friendly, if not trans yourself. If you block white supremacists, you're likely in support of multiculturalism.

If you block government entities, well, you know how this goes.

Do I trust Bluesky to handle that information with care? Hell no.

To be clear, I don't trust Fedi to handle this information with care, either. Difference being that on Fedi, your mods aren't some VC/blockchain-funded corporate entity. They're often enough your friends, your neighbors, or yourself.

While there are certain database-related exploits which can be used to pull a blocklist, often enough that's a challenge for a typical layperson with an axe to grind. And it's an incomplete picture thanks to the quirks of federation. Not so on Bluesky.

I'm not going to talk about Bluesky anymore for a bit, but I know folks are coming back here after hanging out there for a while, and I want to encourage Fedi users not to gloat, not to be jerks about it.

And if you're just (re)joining us on Fedi, like all affinity groups, you're going to run into enthusiasts who are gloating, but I promise most of us are just happy you're here and want to help make this place awesome for you. <3

“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace...”

The guy is clearly deranged. Time to use the 25th Ammendment to save the country and the world from his madness.

진실 혹은 거짓 EP.2
(투표해주세요!)

웨이비언트(Wavient) 진짜일까, 가짜일까?

웨이비언트는 바다에서 나오는 파도의 소리를 직접 녹음 한 후에 파도소리를 변형하여 앰비언트의 방식으로 풀어내는 장르입니다.

2000년대 중반 John Swatt, Pacific Streams, OC’Z와 같은 뮤지션들의 등장 이후 앰비언트 계열의 새로운 하위장르로 알음알음 알려지기 시작했습니다.

이후 2020년대 초반 코로나 시기와 맞물려 Pz, Dylan Brown, Hannah Taylor, Kato Ayami와 같은 뮤지션들이 하나의 씬을 구축하며 웨이비언트는 뉴에라 앰비언트로 부상하고 있습니다.

* 본 매거진은 사교적 유교클럽(virtueclique), 모듈사사(module.44) 등에서 일부 모티브를 얻었음을 밝힙니다.

by Alain Berset, the secretary general of the Council of Europe, on the turning point that the Greenland topic is.

"We are witnessing the return of an old strategic reflex: a Cold War mind-set in which geography is treated as destiny and influence as zero-sum, and independence is seen as a strategic risk rather than a democratic choice. [...]

International law is either universal or meaningless. Greenland will show which one we choose."

Yesterday some news websites picked on ChaosBSD.
I did read the comments, and created a WIKI : github.com/seuros/ChaosBSD-src

I'm learning Driver building, that a sandbox of a full working system.

Some people raised the concern that FREEBSD -CURRENT should be the sandbox.

That not how operate.

For example, if i get a WIFI driver to scan 2.4gh, and dont have knowledge to do 5GH. That driver land. Someone else could add 5gh or WPA1/2/3 .

This ChaosBSD, the driver should at least do something useful.

I have Broadcom drivers that kernel panic if you stop the scan.

Other usb driver refuse reattach after a suspend mode.

These are the drivers that will not make it in mainline because Freebsd cannot tell it used : `BTW if you have BCM94321MC and close the lid, you lose wifi`

Also this is not a joke project. I'm trying to setup a work flow so we keep in sync with upstream.
