I read "Cats in Pianos", which made surpsisingly much sense for the first image.

Why is there a really shitty copper community??

We have no clue what electricity is, because we, the authors, are dumb as fuck.

It's not just ugly, it's against the spec. The quiet zone is meant to be 4 "dots" wide on all sides for the code to be optimally readable.

man -k to the rescue: mbsrtowcs, strxfrm and wcstold are C functions.

If you're concerned about this coming from Meta, you haven't been paying attention. This is not to excuse Metas responsibility in the enshittification of the internet, but as a hyperscalar they of course have been pushing computing technology for a long time, and many of it openly available. CRAM will probably be upstreamed into Linux and I assume is therefore already licensed under the GPL. Meta Research seems to be operating in a much more open and useful way than the rest of the company.

The fact that every 4-digit pin is in this picture shows quite well how these are pretty easy to crack.

The article only summarizes it shortly, but the parallels to the Munich Agreement from 1938 are really scary.

Hitler's aim was to take over all of Czechoslovakia by breaking it apart. The subject of the Munich Agreement was the Sudetenland, the region bordering Germany. Before there were some votes and local political forces expressing the wish of the German minority in the Sudetenland to create an independent state (See the parallels with DNR, LNR and Crimea). This was used by Hitler to justify taking over the region. Suddenly it wasn't about independence anymore, but about inclusion into Germany.

The Czechoslovakian government in Prague obviously hated the idea, but they were not invited to the talks in Munich. Only afterwards were they made aware of the decision that would be imposed on their nation. Who was invited was fellow fascist Mussolini from Italy, as well as France and UK, who gave in and signed this agreement, giving international support to Germany just taking over parts of neighboring nations.

Their reasoning was, if they were to disagree, Hitler would assert his will by force and take Czechoslovakia militarily, starting a large European war (that is also the reason Prague was forced to accept the decision: the alternative was a war they could never win, they could not count on any outside help). This was the so-called appeasement policy by the UK. They bought "peace" in exchange for territories they didn't own but felt the right to decide over. We all know how this heavily-priced peace turned out. At most it gave the allied forces one more year to prepare for WWII.

Maybe the systemd haters were right all along?

Huh, Silksong is out now. Maybe it's time I played the first Hollow Knight?

I enjoy this meme. Truly a Lemmy original.

From their FAQ:

We build our modules using the components manufactured by the world biggest chip companies like Micron, Hynix, Nanya and Samsung.

As expected, but the final assembly being done in the EU is still a big advantage.

The really crazy thing about the graph is that there are 433 fucking datapoints!

Can you verify this? Maybe we should require Debian contributors to prove they are adults. /s

Clearly we need self-centering support from editors.

Can we just take a step back and admire how completely bizarre this title sounds out of context?
