Nowadays my main account, but other @Deebsters are available.

  • foss nerds stop being condescending to those who don't know the same things you do challenge (impossible)

  • I have a love-hate relationship with Logseq. I fantasise about rewriting it to better suit my needs, but it's definitely a lot of work to do this for both desktop and Android.

  • Falling in love again with my childhood crush

    Jump

  • As a kid in the 90s, I was instructed not to tell everyone that my house had two screens, two Playstations, two copies of Wipeout and a link cable. It's kinda bizarre how we never actually got that good at it, although the fact that killing each other was more fun than racing probably had a lot to do with it.

  • AI data centers face increasing complaints about inaudible but 'felt' infrasound — citizens complain high- and low-frequency sounds do not register on decibel meters but cause adverse health effects

  • According to this article, good dietary sources of L-arginine are:

    • Turkey
    • Pork loin
    • Chicken
    • Pumpkin seeds
    • Soybeans
    • Peanuts
    • Spirulina
    • Diary Dairy
    • Chickpeas
    • Lentils

    This other list is similar but has 30 items and adds plenty of seafood.

  • Now witness the power of this fully operational Fediverse!

  • Odd that piefed.social gets counted as a "Mastodon-ish" server instead of being counted with the Lemmy stats.

  • TIL a photography student sent blank negative film to a height of 36.5 km using a balloon. Cosmic rays burned into the film, revealing ethereal patterns not visible to the human eye.

    Jump

  • The second paragraph of that source states it was a helium balloon. Also, the BBC article only describes it as helium.

  • ah yes

  • Where that user is Claude? I think that's the only username in my blocklist.

  • Linux cryptographic code flaw offers fast route to root

    Jump

  • The Register started as the register.co.uk, so route and root would be homophones, but it seems that this author is American. Still, as a Brit I get to read it the fun(ner) way.

  • zirkonit explained on HN:

    Necessary context for someone probably being more detached from US politics:

    Former FBI Director James Comey — fired by Trump in 2017 and one of his most prominent critics ever since — was indicted this week by Trump's Justice Department for allegedly threatening the president's life through a May 2025 Instagram photo of seashells arranged to spell "8647" (a protest slogan where "86" is slang for "get rid of" and "47" refers to Trump as the 47th president), which Comey says he intended as political commentary, not a call to violence.

    A developer in our team sent me a full presentation without using a slides tool.

  • I've never used either so I looked them up; https://htmldecks.com/blog/slidev-vs-revealjs-2025.html says

    Reveal.js is a JavaScript framework where you write HTML. It gives you maximum control, works without a build step (for simple decks), and has a decade of battle-testing. It's the jQuery of presentation frameworks — not trendy, but reliable.

    Slidev is a Vite-powered tool where you write Markdown. It gives you a modern developer experience with hot reload, Vue component support, and opinionated defaults that get you to a finished deck faster. It's the Vite of presentation tools — fast, modern, delightful.

    Anyone have any first-hand opinions?

  • I clicked, expecting to see a different xkcd. Then I searched for the one I expected and (re-?)discovered Time (#1190) which took a fair while to go through (since I started when your comment was fairly new).
