Occasionally funny by accident.

If the world is spinning too fast, just remember to sit on a compass needle for a while.

Debian Linux was officially founded by Ian Murdock on August 16, 1993. That's 32 years of stable, free, and opensource computing. From a single kernel, it has grown to parent some of the most popular OSes in the world. Cheers to the one that started it all! Happy 32nd birthday to the beloved mother of all distros!! 🥰 🍰

I'm on the server floor of a "highly secure data center with 24/7/365 surveillance, direct access control and robust perimeter security".

An actual duck just walked by. 🦆

The panic is absolutely glorious. I think this just became one of the highlights of my life.

This is *the* best thread. Read it. Contains tales about ducks.

Drop into any conversation online about securing your cryptocurrency and you will find a great number of people who clearly need help and an almost equal number of people who talk down their noses at people who don't have a clue (and who in their minds maybe even deserve to get robbed).

The truth is, securing your cryptocurrency against theft is not a simple matter, requires a fair bit of preparation and foreknowledge. and is remarkably easy to fuck up, with unseen, massive consequences either immediately or down the road.

My theory is that anyone who has been in the cryptocurrency space for any length of time has been through one or more experiences where they lost some or all of their coin to some scam, rug-pull, phishing scheme or outright physical theft. That's a really expensive way to learn about security, but it has its adherents.

Here's the core truth about owning a lot of cryptocurrency wealth; it makes YOU the bank. The minute anyone knows or suspects you have sizeable amounts of crypto holdings, you become a walking target for phishers, sim-swatters, kidnappers and extortionists, or worse. And ultimately, what gets stolen stays that way, and it is rare that victims ever seen their stolen coin again.

Somehow landed on the NetBSD manpage of sleep(1) and they seem to have a rather unique take on what is considered a bug.

I don't post a lot, mostly I follow some people whose posts or conversations I see, and read along.
I do enjoy to reply to others posts, striving to be nice, funny, or at least witty :)

I don't know it it's the #ADHS meds talking, but sometimes I write a reply i like so much, i have to read it several times and enjoy my creation.

Do you know this #writing or #writingcommunity ?

Maybe I'll write a book some day, a very small one. I could never get a long text just right to be happy with it.
