brvt.telent.net has been down for most of the weekend because I thought it would be a good idea, and straightforward, to move it from pleroma to akkoma

It may yet be a good idea, I don't know, but it assuredly is not proving straightforward

The chain and cassette on my mostly-offroad bike has now outlasted two outer chainrings, which seems ... unusual? The cassette is Shimano 10 speed Tiagra, I don't know what the chain is, and the chainrings were shimano tiagra (first) and 105 (second).

If I could be reasonably certain that another brand would be compatible (5 hole, 110bcd) I'd get another brand, especially as current Tiagra (4 hole) doesn't fit, but vaguely concerned by e.g. https://www.highonbikes.com/products/stronglight-dural-5083-outer-double-chainring-shimano-9-10-speed?variant=31755398512736 which says "Some Shimano outer chainrings do have an offset to them so the outer Strongligth may cause some chainline issues on smaller chainring and the low end of your cassette.". Maybe spacers ...

@dan hey
my microblog.pub instance @dan has mysteriously stopped working, so I have nowhere to tell you I have revived the qemu support in #nixwrt
Thinking about doing some #nixwrt dev #livestream some time this week (probably between 8-10pm UTC, after kids in bed). LMK if you'd join (and any tips on platform etc, esp. FOSS concerns)
GONE AWAY. Follow me to my new place @dan

on which note, "what are you even doing with nixwrt, Daniel?"

Glad you asked. As of the day before yesterday approximately (sqrt sod-all) but I am trying to get back into it

  • I ordered a second gl-ar750 so I have a dev device as well as the one that holds the family's internet access together
  • I am randomly refactoring stuff to make it easier to build particular parts (e.g. the kernel) from the command line than currently. I sometimes find myself building the whole monolithic image and then using binwalk to extract the component of interest, which feels suboptimal
  • I am wondering if I can revive the qemu target and somehow make it useful (maybe it could have emulated ethernet with a tap device so I could write tests that talk to a pppoe server, or ... I dunno ... something)
