"rigg serves as a thin, OpenBSD-adapted runtime wrapper for indie games based on certain engines. rigg handles visibility of files by using unveil(2) to hide those that conflict with execution on OpenBSD."

This is a really cool project! I did a not nearly as cool project several years ago, a command line NOS Teletekst reader for Unix/Windows. Might be of use to someone: https://github.com/sjmulder/nostt

There's something about calling some overseas phone number but that was fun! The kids enjoyed it too.

Ukraine itself houses a great many internal refugees. The EU countries have agreed to each take a fair share of refugees, but Germany, Poland and Czechia carry the good majority right now.

It's not about the Ukrainians directly. On the more 'civil' side of this discourse it's mostly claims that this will become a general asylum or registration center (which it won't) and/or that there'll be

That's great! There's a housing crisis here too and unfortunately the opposition to the project uses this as their main argument. Those supporting refugee housing are framed as enemies of the 'real' locals, even though t

Small city council politics :( there's a lot of resistance against a new temporary housing project for Ukrainian refugees with many legit concerns, and some NIMBY, but also xenophobia and racism. It's tough but we've been abl

It’s considered a subsidy either way.

by sjmulder 3y ago
Fossil subsidies are indefensible at this point. Ending fossil subsidies is also a simple and clear demand. Here in the Netherlands, the government previously committed itself to end such subsidies by 2020 but didn’t deliver. Extinction Reb

What I wonder is why do we apply such different standards/expectations to web and non web apps? E.g. desktop Slack doesn’t ask me to log in all the time. Are web app tokens that much more easily stolen? What about Electron apps then?

Deliberately minimal! OpenBSD with https, sshd and smtpd. Hosts a bunch of stuff - git, web, files mostly. Uses next to no resources and is trivial to maintain. Hosted on TransIP I also have a FreeBSD host with ZFS for files but I’ll be dro

I settled on pkgsrc, very portable, configurable, sits cleanly alongside the OS or other packages managers and has a friendly community. Con: building from source, needs some massaging sometimes.

I’m on Mastodon now and have used the opportunity to switch to having two accounts, on separate instances. Once for everything local, climate change or politics, and one just for nerdy stuff, to disconnect from the real world. Very happy. D

In any built up area it really doesn't matter how large the country as a whole is, or its population density, to how I can get to the dentist, supermarket, running track or a local friend. Those are mostly results of local planning dec

"..for any purpose", how is this ever supposed to fly in the EU or UK? Should be opt-in, not in the small print, and entirely optional.

Web refers to Gemini here, it being a command-line client for the Gemini web. These line-based browsers used to be more common, there were a few ones for the www but also ‘ftp’ has such a mode. As does my little ‘nostt’ Teletext reader.

Impressive, the code is dense but not too hard to follow. And you even managed to cram in history!

What library or such if any do you use for string.h/math.h/snprintf and such?
