Hey everyone! #vultr just enshittified! They re claiming ownership of all intellectual property you host on their VMs. https://grimgreenfo.rest/notes/9rdle0uyo4d30029 Clear violation of copyright law. [edit: muting this. I got too much to do. Like moving servers. And too many of you don't understand that contracts must be read as a hostile, abusive, manipulative party would interpret them. I've worked with too many bastards who did exactly that and got away with it. Capitalism is not polite.]

Email #sysadmin folks: The Sieve docs say that all filtered folders are children of INBOX. That's not how I filter my email. Most often, I create primary folders for categories like "OpenBSD," "FreeBSD," etc, then create subfolders for those. Is the "child of inbox" thing important? Am I missing something here?

Dear creators: please, please, PLEASE set up your own web sites and distribute your work from there. If you post your work only on Twitter and/or Reddit, it's gonna disappear. Soon.

@mwl it makes me sad thinking about how much internet culture is going to be lost over the next few years from all the centralised platforms.

@mwl Off topic but please put your fixes or notation anywhere else like github or a webpage. Just somewhere else other than reddit (or archive your thread)

@mwl what client (is that the right word?) do you suggest? I've seen neocities suggested a few times but what do you think?

Computers are like onions. Everything is layers built on layers, and every layer makes you cry. #sysadmin

oh, right. Marketing. I'm supposed to do promotion and stuff here. Ugh. Fine. <deep breath> "Books are cool! Buy books!" There. Done.

I mostly agree with Kris Rusch's take on AI #writing https://kriswrites.com/2023/03/29/business-musings-ai-and-mediocre-work/ |
Hahaha. Looks like a 90s Indy rock album cover...
@mwl friend! :D
@mwl I don't know, maybe the goose has an warmhearted purpose for wanting in, like, to scare away the intruder that's hiding in the bathroom.
