@admin you can also exclude our corporate IP range. But thanks for that recommendation. It doesn't work because I work from home and already have to use a VPN to access work sites.

I could use a Tor browser to access floss.social I guess but at this point I think a different instance that is more inclusive might be a better choice.

Fedora for Apple Silicon Macs!

@AsahiLinux and the Fedora Asahi SIG announced today at Flock that Fedora will soon be coming to Apple Silicon systems.

* Fedora Asahi Remix will be provided for Workstation and Server use cases.
* Fedora Asahi Remix will also become the flagship distribution of Asahi Linux!
* It's a Remix to keep faster development with the goal of eventually just being part of the editions.

@admin I mostly access floss.social from my phone so I just noticed this. It's regrettable that the action goes beyond defederating threads.net - I work on #FLOSS pretty much full time, and this means I cannot use floss.social when I happen to be on the corporate network at all.

I respect the admins' decision on this but I might end up using my other instance more

A #California clone of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, named after the fictional restaurant from #Frasier, with UFO jokes? Sign me up!

It's surprisingly decent too

curl supports MANY TLS libraries. NSS was one of the libraries supported up to now. NSS is most known for being used by Firefox - but not by much else.

After removing NSS support, curl still supports 13 different TLS libraries. OpenSSL is the by far most popular choice.

A couple times lately when I tell people I’m not on #WhatsApp they look at ke weirdly, or I’ve missed important offical comms and people have said “it was in WhatsApp” like everyone universally is on there.

So, are you on WhatsApp?

Please boost for votes- I’m genuinely keen to see

Let's have drinks outside and enjoy the cool summer air and chirping cicadas, I said.

I forgot about the mosquitoes 😅 ... worth it though.

@bookwar @hrw @dneary @Conan_Kudo definitely - didn't mean to imply you were! Can't resist the opportunity to both give credits and do a bit of a recruitment drive though :)

@bookwar @hrw @dneary it's not just Meta -- Hyperscale used to be co-chaired by a Twitter engineer (RIP Twitter OSS) and have contributions from Intel as well.

And, though he no longer represents Datto, our very own @Conan_Kudo is a prolific contributor!

That being said .. if anyone runs an Enterprise Linux derivative or CentOS Stream on their servers and are interested in Hyperscale, please talk to us!

@downey @silmathoron @garrowbregenza I'll reserve judgment until I have time to read the full proposal, but I am quite bemused that this is from the distro that used to think Debian's popcon is too intrusive 😶
