Sent a pull request to Audacity fixing a crash bug I'd been running into frequently. The cause was an out-of-bounds memmove. Classic C++ areas.

Anyway I got a fucking copilot review on my PR which left two comments, both completely wrong, one of which suggesting I reintroduce the out of bounds memory access. I'm furious!

Eine neue Seite, die unbeabsichtigt in einem Spannungsbogen endet.

A new page of my comic, which I unintentionally ended with a cliffhanger.

Another page of my comic, in which three of the members of the High Council of Fate aka Destiny are revealed: Universal Laws of Nature (or Universe, for short), Providence and Insight.

Keynote speaker at Open Source Summit presented (uncritically) an example of an AI generated picture of a flying cow for her 6-yo to color in. A cow .. with 5 legs. I just couldn't stay in the room – I felt like I could not breathe. Am I being unreasonable?

@HasnainKazim aber ist es nicht genau so, das Religion eben nicht privat ist? Der Glaube sicher, aber ohne Öffentlichkeit ist Religion nichts. Religion muss einfach tolerant sein…

Due to popular demand (there was exactly one person suggesting it) the XMPP network graph now has badges.

This badge can be embedded to your webpage, and shows a count of the amount of server-to-server connections your domain currently* has.

* this is semi-live data: some caching is in effect.

Get your badge at xmppnetwork.goodbytes.im

A network graph showing federated connections between the XMPP domain igniterealtime.org and other domains. In a side-bar, basic domain information and a badge is displayed.

Wednesday, it's Captain!

(see mathstodon.xyz/@Scmbradley/114, infosec.exchange/@isotopp/1146, now posted from a proper computer with a keyboard and edit tools instead of a cellphone, and on an actual Wednesday)

A pier, drawn in ligne claire comic style. Wednesday Addams meets Captain Haddock. She says: "Hello, Commodore!" He responds "Wednesday, it's Captain!" inverting the typical "Captain, it's Wednesday!" What-a-week-meme featuring Tintin.

At the bottom of the image, Thing the Hand creeps to a bottle of beer.

🆕 blog! “Reading NFC Passport Chips in Linux”

For boring and totally not nefarious reasons, I want to read all the data contained in my passport's NFC chip using Linux. After a long and annoying search, I settled on roeften's pypassport.

I can now read all the passport information, including biometrics.
