      Andy shares the excitement he feels about actually properly understanding how character encoding works, and what the words mean (e.g. octet, code unit, code point).

      Debian is back in the Mastodon/GNU Social fediverse, follow fosstodon.org/@debian
      By larjona from The bright side

      The GNU Social instance where the @debian account was hosted (quitter.se) shut down last May. Thanks to the Quitter.se admins for all this time!

      Long overdue, I’ve setup the @debian account with the feed of micronews.debian.org in other place (I still cannot selfhost properly, due to time constraints mostly). This time I chose a Mastodon instance, fosstodon.org. Thanks to the Fosstodon admins for hosting, and Carl Chenet for feed2toot.

      If you are in the GNU Social/Mastodon fediverse (or other network compatible with ActivityPub I guess), you can follow https://fosstodon.org/@debian to get the news (the official source will always be https://micronews.debian.org, though).

      I will try to follow back and answer mentions/replies as time allows. Ping (my contact info is in https://wiki.debian.org/LauraArjona) if something goes wrong (I’m learning this new platform) and I’ll do my best to get things back to normal.

      Happy Solstice!

    The New York Times reports Facebook gave Microsoft, Amazon, Spotify, Netflix, Apple, Yandex, Yahoo and others far more access to users' data than previously admitted, including access to private messages:

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/18/technology/facebook-privacy.html

    There is never going to be a better time to #DeleteFacebook, the violations are only going to get worse.

    If you know someone who wants to try alternatives and needs a simple non-technical guide, try sending them this:

    This is the one and only game I've made so far (from 2 years ago). This is what I did to teach myself how a CYOA might work. It has cursing and bombs in it and requires sound. Also, it's very, very dumb.

    I was invited to consult a European research project called Eunomia. The project aims to implement a web of trust system for the spread of news in social networks, and I will be advising them on how their system can work with decentralized social networks, and Mastodon in particular. I'll also be doing community outreach, since at some point we'll need volunteers for trying it out.

    The kick-off meeting is in January, in London. I bought the tickets today. Excited & equally terrified.

    I've never listened to anything that sounds so much like "contemporary" church music.

    Listening to a lot of Evanescence to try and decide whether I like them.

    I seriously considered having it say "Cod like a girl" but a limited number of people would find that funny. [I like to refer to code as cod.]

    Or, "code pike a girp" as a previous version of the design was accused of saying.

    I notice a trend of people 10years and more younger than me where they post serious things/feelings followed by "lol" or "lmao"

    Dont do that, babys. Your feelings, even anger and confusion and disgust at the current system, are VALID and you dont have to couch it in irony or sarcasm. It's real, and we know too.

    By the way: Open Library lets you check out books, including by current authors. Some of them have a wait list, but you still support authors. And some of them are off copyright and therefore free:

    https://openlibrary.org

    You don't even need a local library!

    Got my prayers in church over with, was about to relax. Accidentally volunteered to pray at the carol service, which is usually packed. Anxiety back with a vengeance.
