  1. So apparently, we now have a tool dedicated to visualizing the existential crisis that is your GPU's #performance 🤯. Because clearly, what we all needed was a fancy new way to watch our hardware struggle in high definition, instead of actually improving it. 📉🚀

  2. cheeky mode access denied message:

    Bzzzzt! You got no business here sugar.

  3. Why does Cards Against Humanity need proof that you're human? Aren't they 'Against Humanity'? Certainly the AI overlords also need humor

  4. authentication issue at work, InfoSec guy gives me an update on "sing-in" logs

    I'm worried about how much singing logs would depend on autotune

  5. 🤡 Ah, the classic tale of #NAT as the evil #villain in the saga of internet centralization. Who knew understanding the internet could be as confounding as explaining why you can't host the next family reunion on your home FTP server? 😅 Let's all pretend that knowing what NAT does isn't reserved for the highest tier of the geek hierarchy.

  6. It's another sign for #PhotoOfTheDay. I appreciated this signage on the back door of a small tech company office in the SF Bay Area before they vanished.

  7. Amtrak has instructions on how to uninstall windows

    Nothing about a water landing, though

    ( Maybe with image this time )

  8. it turns out that if you auto depend on apt-cacher for the new apt-cacher box on a new network it won't get packages from the apt-cacher you haven't yet installed

    And now I know :)

  9. For some reason this rock in Utah made me think about some guy in Nebraska.

  10. Drives me crazy watching people type without using shortcuts!

  11. 50 New ‘Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal’ Comics About Life, Science, And Everything In Between Humor that feels fresh, a little unpredictable, and deeply satisfying. If you enjoy comics that ...

  12. Okay, folks, gather 'round, because you are not going to believe this one. My friend who is working at NASA told me this confidential news , but i can finally spill the beans: NASA is officially running NetBSD.

    Yeah, you heard that right. Turns out, when you need an OS that can literally run on a potato *and* survive the vacuum of space without a hiccup, you do not mess around. They have been working under wraps with their deep space division on something they are calling "AstroBSD."

    Apparently, the Perseverance rover on Mars? Yeah, it is not just taking pretty pictures; it is crunching data with a custom NetBSD kernel.

    This just proves what foundation has been saying forever: "Of course it runs NetBSD!" From your ancient router to a rover on another planet.

  13. @ra6bit @soatok And lo, the number 42 arrived with wit from a very clever man. And from then on, we agreed our random seed would be 42 so that we too might be clever men. And the API key shall be checked into the public repo lest we lose it in our sticky notes ....

  14. This is exactly the kind of #GeekHumor that literally makes me chuckle out loud. Thanks @rafa! And thank you for a nifty little utility that revives that nostalgic vibe of good old Xeyes and its siblings-in-spirit. 🤓 😎

  15. O0OF, this week's gonna hit hard like a Monday morning MFA

    #GeekHumor #sysadmin #MFAshortStories

  16. 4077 for MFA, guess 2026 is going to be a mess

    Hopefully with hijinks and humor, but not so much meatball surgery

    On the Fediverse we know we'll get plenty of cross-dressing in a variety of forms

    Also protests against wars and inhumanity

  17. When you feel better enough that you're not sleeping all the time, you realize how grim it is to sit in bed for hours and hours. Up here in seclusion, I have progressively flattened every part of my butt! I think I've got 20-sided dice back there, I'm so faceted!! 🤣

  18. "ByTor" spelled just like it sounds if you're a Rush fan

    "I play bass" she said

    Some ISPs have good customer service :)

  19. Needed 4 random characters for my PIN, so chose Samwise Gamgee, Rose Tyler, Zoë Boutin-Perry and Hawkeye Pierce

    Had to replace Zoë with her mom Jane because the server couldn't handle umlauts

  20. "100W", today's MFA moved back to incandescent from LAD lightbulbs

    It could be an allegory about how wasteful computing resources have become

    Or maybe it's just 4 random characters

  21. Ah, the classic tale of a tech bro transforming a bird-brained problem into a full-on geek fest! 🚀💻 Because nothing screams "simple solution" like a WiFi water gun and Python script to combat the terror of pigeon poop. Next step: AI-powered drone to mow the lawn. 🐦🔫

  22. Try not to be the reason they needed to install mollyguard

    A friendly reminder for no reason at all :)

  24. Request For Next Message was the most common packet on the old ARPANET, where backbone ("trunk") nodes checked whether each node to which they had a direct connection was still running, so they.could start rerouting messages as soon as possible, when necessary.

  25. @sjvn alt-text

    fiber art of some poetry:

    roses are red
    violets are blue
    unexpected '}'
    on line 32

  26. Scott Laird spent a month 🤯 trying to synchronize his #Linux #clocks and wrote 3800 words 📚 on it — because apparently, nothing screams "gripping content" like the minutiae of time sync accuracy. Spoiler alert: it's as riveting as watching paint dry 🖌️.
