    This is an amazing article for folks interested in the low level IPC dbus. systemd, network manager, and or applications are leveraging dbus and with the new dbusbroker I expect more and more applications leverage it. It’s MASSIVELY confusing at first, but this is such a great article I hope it helps anyone interested in thr low level communications of userspace level linux applications.


  • It’s a fair point, but I don’t think I’m worthy, hence why I asked. Lol

    i’m on beehaw and they don’t just create communities, hence why I asked here. Seems like I’m getting a number if uovotes, so not sure if others are interested in my question or woukd like to see folks posting when they go live here. Any and all thoughts are appreciated.

    Obviously wondering mod and communities thoughts as well. This is all of our space imo.












  • This is the part that caught my attention:

    Privacy features like user-agent reduction, IP reduction, preventing cross-site storage, and fingerprint randomization make it more difficult to distinguish or reidentify individual clients, which is great for privacy, but makes fighting fraud more difficult.

    And we do those things, not because we’re fraudsters, but because we’re trying to protect ourselves from the likez of YOU!

    YOU did this, change your model and maybe it’ll be better? Oh! But! Mooooooooney! I forgot. Stupid me.

    This is the fucking bully telling the nerd that if he doesn’t just HAND OVER his lunch money, that he’ll get beat. It’s YOUR fault! Not OURS!

    Edit: Formatting and added about bully

    Edit 2: fixing the formatting of the formatting edit. :-D lol


  • Please NEVER stop asking questions. As other have said, there really are no stupid questions.

    If someone else acts like it’s a stupid question, then it’s their issue and not yours. NOTHING is easy until you understand it. The only way to understand it is to ask questions.

    I’ve told numerous folks at work that before they do something if they have a question then let me know, because I’d rather answer a question then spend an hour or more fixing something broken.

    I ask a LOT of questions. So many questions that when I first started in IT I had a lead that got used to me being in the office 2 hours before him so he knew I’d have a million questions and before he’d even go to his desk he’d stop by mine and ask if I had questions, which I always did.

    Please please please please please ASK QUESTIONS.

    I have been in IT for 12 years now, I have been on Linux for 16. Before this post I literally was in another thread and asked about BTRFS. I looked it up and it wasn’t making sense to me, so I asked a question. You can NEVER know EVERYTHING. And when you start to get comfortable that’s when something new comes out or you start digging deeper and have more.






  • NO! No bugs! Be perfect!

    Seriously though, I’ve seen way dumber shit in “production” ready code.

    I won’t use Bluesky, but this happens all the time. I also don’t see the issue.

    I’ve told folks before, once and last time in front of developers (they didn’t find it funny) , that all code is shit. Not because they’re bad at it, but because it’s impossible to account for EVERY possible factor. They always make a better idiot. US: “Here’s this square.” Them: “I cut the corners off to fit it into the round hole and it no works!”


  • XMPP or Matrix. I’m on Matrix only because I have my family there and I was there before I knew of XMPP and at this point I can’t turn that boat.

    Signal was/is (idk if they still are) into crypto, they don’t let you run your own server or client, and they have a proprietary shim in place to combat spam (or so they say, it can’t be audited because it’s proprietary).

    I was all in on Signal until the above.
