This is just another cult with false prophets..

Blocked comments section with uBlock filter, and I'm happier.

seqizz··on I paid people to try and follow my README
Does the author aware the blog is unreadable on Firefox mobile? I might have something wrong on my phone too, but I don't have an issue with anything else.. https://imgur.com/a/ctriVnD
seqizz··on Incident CVE-2026-LGTM
Still no foxhole-lz4 on Github? Come on, someone should fork it from vulpine-lz4 :)
seqizz··on I Won't Buy You a Coffee
I never asked for money, but also never "got the ick". That is a personal blog, you're free to not read.
seqizz··on Tariffs Raised Consumers' Prices, but the Refunds Go Only to Businesses
Don't worry, it'll trickle down to consumers. It always did. /s
seqizz··on Slop Cop
A whole new generation is coming who learns how to communicate by llm-generated text, so I assume by time these used "catching" methods will be invalidated.
seqizz··on LÖVE: 2D Game Framework for Lua
I looove stabyourself. ortho robot was amazing. you know what, let me install again.. here goes my night.
seqizz··on Tell HN: Anthropic no longer allowing Claude Code subscriptions to use OpenClaw
Doesn't look like it
seqizz··on Can I start using Wayland in 2026?
If somewm[1] continues to develop, why not? Otherwise I will not be sacrificing my decade-old work style with awesomewm.

seqizz··on Show HN: Picknplace.js, an alternative to drag-and-drop
Yeah and not many people are complaining about this. Feels like almost everyone has smooth scrolling by default.
seqizz··on Where do the children play?
Reading the US 8-12 year olds' stats made me flinch, because as someone grow up in the middle east this is inconceivable. I guess I'll dive into rabbit hole about modern-day stats of Europe and other places to compare.
seqizz··on Is anybody having issues with Claude.ai Sonnet now?
It's down. Gotta love status pages which is not reflecting reality.
seqizz··on I use zip bombs to protect my server
Because you requested it? There is no agreement on what or how to serve things, other than standards (your browser expects a valid document on the other side etc).

I just assumed court might say there is a difference between you requesting all guess-able endpoints and find 1 endpoint which will harm your computer (while there was _zero_ reason for you to access that page) and someone putting zipbomb into index.html to intentionally harm everyone.

I'm also not a lawyer, but wouldn't they dismiss this as a sabotage if the requester is not legally forced to request it in the first place?
seqizz··on DeepMind releases Lyria 2 music generation model
But there are people who already doing what you are currently doing. Also they do it waaaay better. If this does not make you redundant, why would AI do it?
seqizz··on Getting forked by Microsoft
How about post-open license? https://postopen.org/
seqizz··on Tell Mozilla: it's time to ditch Google
Nah, Firefox devs: It's time to ditch Mozilla and fork it.
seqizz··on What, if anything, should I do about using Mozilla's Firefox
I was just checking their site. Not even mention of Firefox other than an external quote? Looked a bit shady tbh.
seqizz··on Mozilla flamed by Firefox fans after reneging on promises to not sell their data
Still waiting for a fork from core and/or old devs. Will take few more enshittification attempts I assume.
seqizz··on Mozilla flamed by Firefox fans after reneging on promises to not sell their data
Until one of the next minor updates
seqizz··on It is no longer safe to move our governments and societies to US clouds
I recently got a message on LinkedIn from an AWS headhunter for: "Position for European Sovereign Cloud".

So I assume most of the mentioned issues will be irrelevant soon™. Because a) the convenience, b) lack of actual competitors.

seqizz··on How to GIF (2025 Edition)
Oh true, I think it was h264
seqizz··on How to GIF (2025 Edition)
I re-encoded all of my webm's to mp4's back then on my "gif blog", thanks to Safari and all my mac-using friends saying "I can't see it". Now look who started to support it eh.
seqizz··on I don't like Docker or Podman
Even though I despise containers, this is not a good take for open source. They developed an app, they got to decide how it is distributed.

Hell, even if you're paying customer, if a product has only Docker as installation method and seller is not interested for providing .deb's and .rpm's, go find another solution.

seqizz··on Doom, the Gallery Experience
It gives an uneasy feeling. I guess my mind expect something to pop up that I need to shoot.
seqizz··on Ghostty 1.0
Yeah I also searched for a quick select in ghostty while checking now. I am probably too deep in wezterm with my lua configuration anyway, but still.
seqizz··on From where I left
I think people are not afraid of the current change on licensing, but the magic is broken as soon as a company starts wandering around. Yes the current license is not that bad, but while we have valkey on the side now, how can I trust "Redis Inc." will not decide another small change which does not affect me, then the next one, until it makes something which does affect me.
seqizz··on Quit Social Media (2016)
We also do not let people into the friend circle just because they have money (I hope). IMHO healthiest "social media" I could think is interest groups. They eventually need some kind of donation from one or more people, but with no or minimal barriers.
seqizz··on Using Euro coins as weights (2004)
I've seen enough wear to prevent them to be calibration material at least.
seqizz··on Restic: Backups done right
Afaik not yet, there was some discussion here: https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/804
seqizz··on Warm Handoffs
Honestly I am not convinced. If someone comes to sysadmins channel to ask "hey I randomly get a bluescreen, what should I do?" the solution is to answer "well you can ask #officeit channel". Holding their hand and asking to office IT myself + explaining this to the person who asked the question does not add any extra value, not to mention the extra time it needs.
