Thanks everyone for all the feedback, testing, and suggestions! I'm currently fixing things up and getting a version ready for bsdinstall.

#Introduction 📣

Hi! I'm Ivan.

This is my self-hosted instance on #Mastodon, fueled by caffeine and stubbornness.

I'm a #music producer with a strong passion for #photography — musicwise I bend towards #EDM, while photography stretches from drone/aerial to architecture and basic still/everyday life.

Big believer in #privacy, digital independence and owning your own space online, powered by #FOSS and #Linux.

The UK government is playing whack-a-mole with online safety.

Plans to further age-gate the Internet dodges the real issue – the power of Big Tech.

Failing to regulate AI and the age verification industry puts the rights of users in peril.

@stefanoStefano Marinelli Sadly you're not the only one, I never published on Apple stores but lots of developers are frustrated by Apple's lack of feedback on rejected apps.

Harmless Offering by Howard Lyon

Sooooo my recent mishaps with server administration are making me speed up my plans of shifting towards community-owned and -maintained hosting.

Ever since my conversation with @borisBoris Mann almost one year ago, I took his quote “self-hosting is selfish” as a mantra. It’s time to act accordingly.

Together with @Hollyholly 🐜 and @youjungnoh, we are putting together a group of tech-savy people who want to, respectively:

1. Learn more about system administration
2. Get their hands dirty while doing so
3. Maintain our own shared server
4. Host their own things (be them websites, projects, or services) together with comrades instead of individual infrastructure.

There are many super cool collectives that are doing this already, and we intend to draw inspiration from their work and their documentation, but we really want to do this together!

Who wants to join? Please, do reach out! I already spun up a small-ish VPS that is now hosting all my static websites. If you’d like to get involved, reach out and I would be happy to give you SSH access 🌻

We would also be very grateful if more experienced sysAds want to help us out by hosting workshops or brief classes.

We intend to meet for the first time in South Holland (but maybe virtually too) sometime during the first two weeks of March.

Next steps:

1. Find a name for this group/server/mission
2. Plan a series of (free, open) intro lessons with guests
3. Start hosting some things
4. Migrate things I am already hosting with YunoHost in our community server
5. Migrate to a physical device in a home of ours?

EDIT: I forgot to add this, but it goes without saying that ours would be a queer and transfeminist server

It seems the time has come, huh. Is anyone looking for a senior SRE with deep Linux expertise and experience with infrastructure at massive scales (ex-Meta, ex-Apple)? UK, remote (happy to visit the office anywhere in the UK every month or so). I prefer working on the automation, CI/CD, load testing, or low level debugging. However, I will not work on anything related to generative AI.

I wonder what percentage of posts on social media get replies.

This is great.

@lcamtuflcamtuf Oh, I see.

It's kind of funny how old sci-fi stories were always like "Oh, we have this AI thingy, but we keep it locked away in this super secure facility because it's probably dangerous"

While in reality we have this special kind of lunatics running around, trying their hardest to do the exact opposite of responsibly using this technology

GGML GGUF File Format Vulnerabilities https://lobste.rs/s/i2llks #ai #c
https://www.databricks.com/blog/ggml-gguf-file-format-vulnerabilities

Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

https://github.com/search?q=author%3Aclaude&type=commits&s=author-date&o=desc

As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

#introduction
In 2020, we started by opening a community grocery store in #lisbon, with socially and environmentally responsible products, but today we are a multisectoral #cooperative with six active sections:
- Consumption: manages the grocery store
- Culture: manages the Cave Cultural
- Services: manages the Co-Work Space, provides self-employment services and hosts the Malha Cooperativa project
- Housing: Habirizoma
- Agricultural: urban #agroecology projects
- Handicrafts

Just a brief announcement that I have been working with #QuantaBooks to publish a short book in popular mathematics entitled #SixMathEssentials, which will cover six of the fundamental concepts in mathematics -- numbers, algebra, geometry, probability, analysis, and dynamics -- and how they connect with our real-world intuition, the history of math and science, and to modern practice of mathematics, both in theory and in applications. The scheduled publication date is Oct 10, but it is currently available for preorder. https://us.macmillan.com/books/9780374621797/sixmathessentials/

No Tools for You: A Century of Men Policing Women’s Tools

In 1925 a doctor said vacuum cleaners will make women lazy. In 2026 mastodon dudes said the same thing (and worse) about a woman engineer using a tool to make a CAD part.

Only two kilograms of Americium-241 would be sufficient for the operation of a moon #rover. Classical systems consume around ten kilograms. Due to the reduced demand, #European missions to the moon 🌙 or deep space could launch five years earlier ⏱️ than previously planned
