Browsing library man pages in #acme is crazy soothing
More people have walked on the Moon than have visited the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
More robots have crawled across the face of Mars than have explored our deepest oceans.
My Mastopeeps will be the first to learn that I have a Patreon video.
I'm told it doesn't suck.
Why can't all pages be simple HTML and CSS without the proprietary BS?
Regular reminder that if you use #OpenBSD, a great help to developers is to send your machines' dmesg outputs to dmesg <AT> openbsd.org.
If you'd like to help other *BSD users, regardless of what *BSD you use, submit your machines' dmesg outputs to http://dmesgd.nycbug.org/
It's free to do, and works best when we all chip in!
Colin Percival tweeted a short thread on the “Lazy FPU” vulnerability that was just disclosed (CVE-2018-3665).
Colin credits his learning about it to Theo de Raadt. Took him ~5 hours to come up with working exploit code.

#OpenBSD intuition regarding a new side-channel caused by the speculative execution on systems with lazy FPU context switching wasn't unsubstantiated. Intel has just published an avdisory: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-00145.html
So, I doubled my monthly #OpenBSD donation, from $10 to $20 CAD, yesterday...
I just gave feedback on all the tutorials, talks, and events I attended at #BSDCan 2018.
Have you done so?
#finishedreading Catherine The Great: Portrait of a woman
By Robert K. Massie
A great rendering of a very complex time and ruler.
The first half of the book is more gripping, and relates her rise to the throne in a chronological way.
The second half separates her reign into various themes, which leads to a slightly harder to follow book, but it is interesting to inspect various events under different lights.
I donated €50 to #OpenBSD today, and if you use OpenBSD, OpenSSH, pf or other tools built by the team, you should too: http://www.openbsd.org/donations.html
#finishedreading Git Commit Murder by @mwlucas
A fun detective story set in a tech conference gone awry. I especially liked the flawed main character, you dont often find characters with #add

Anybody know good #brazillian / #portuguese language #mastodon servers? Ideally with an #art focus? Asking for a friend.
This morning, I woke up feeling proudly bisexual.
Happy #Pride. 🏳️🌈
