Over the past couple of nights I've been setting up my Mastodon server on a new Ubuntu 26.04 VM (The original server was set up using Digital Ocean's "One click install" on 20.04 back in 2022).
I feel like a teenager again, in a good way. I haven't had this much fun messing with computers in a long time.

Nakakahinayang na hindi nahalal na senador si Chel Diokno noong 2019 o 2022. Pero buti na lang nasa lupon siya ng mga taga-usig kasi nilampaso niya ang magkapatid.

Authenticated bootstrapping of DNSSEC delegations | APNIC Blog
By transferring pre-existing trust from the zone’s DNS operator, a new in-band solution would simplify and secure automation of DNSSEC deployment.

My mother brought me to this country from Peru as a young boy.
She always told me that we need to work hard, give back, and help our community,
because that is what it means to be an American. 


When she died of COVID-19,
I promised I would fight like hell for every family like ours.
In 2022 my community sent me to Congress - the first openly LGBTQ immigrant ever elected - to do just that. 

I’m Robert Garcia – now the top Democrat on the House Ov…

Popularly known as “30×30,” and officially known as Target 3, the pledge was one of 23 targets detailed in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), […]

Since February 2022.
To put this into perspective, that’s roughly equivalent to the number of US servicemen killed AND wounded during the entirety of the Vietnam War.

i'm finna sneak into the fourth of july parade in the a.m., which has become sort of an annual tradition
in recent years i've been forced to walk alone, as the local politicos found my sign (DOWN WITH CARS on one side, UPZONE EVERYTHING on the other) off-key
new sign this year: POWER TO THE PEOPLE on one side, HANDS OFF CUBA & IRAN on the other. i'm guessing i'll be marching alone again #alas

Practitioners At The Limit: Bereavement, Mockery and Ideology in Response to Crisis
After decades in which the software industry heroized its technical employees, our current moment finds those employees in crisis. Economically, they are squeezed by a job market that has turned on them since Elon Musk gutted Twitter in 2022. Politically, their craft is continually pressed into the service of an ever tighter alliance between Big Tech and authoritarianism. Professionally, they find themselves less and less able to contribute anything good to anyone within business models that ar…
