There is an ongoing major outage.

Come al solito problemi per ore ancora irrisolti...

Come mi svago senza internet.

Buongiorno a tutti, ancora problemi. Ovviamente ti fanno parlare con il nastro a telefono o il bot del cazzo sul sito invece che con una persona vera, visto che sanno che si beccherebbe una valanga di insulti.

maybe the company that only apologizes five times during their entire 50 year tenure isn't actually your friend after all

The outage may last for a few more days. In the meanwhile, I set up a temporary server on Digital Ocean with just my website. All other services will stay down until the outage is resolved.

Xfwl4 - The roadmap for a Xfce Wayland Compositor

"We, the Xfce team are excited to share some great news!

After careful consideration, we’ve decided on a meaningful way to use the generous donations from our community: funding longtime Xfce core developer Brian Tarricone to create xfwl4, a brand-new Wayland compositor for Xfce.

This initiative will utilize a significant portion of the project’s donated funds, but we believe it’s an important investment in Xfce’s future.

The goal is, that xfwl4 will offer the same functionality and behavior as xfwm4 does, or as much as possible considering the differences between X11 and Wayland. Using xfwl4 should feel just like using xfwm4 on X11. We even plan to reuse the existing xfwm4 configuration dialogs and xfconf settings to ensure a seamless transition.

Xfwl4 will not be based on the existing xfwm4 code. Instead, it will be written from scratch in rust, using smithay building blocks."

Imagine being the guy at YouTube whose sole job is breaking 3rd party clients. Probably a reddit mod when not working.

The outage has finally been resolved, all services are quickly restoring.

Aaaaand I jinxed myself. It's down again.

We've built our own text-to-speech system with an initial English language model we trained ourselves with fully open source data. It will be added to our App Store soon and then included in GrapheneOS as a default enabled TTS backend once some more improvements are made to it.

Mozilla has 1.4 BILLION dollars that they are spending on some AI bullshit.

That's billion with a B. So if you held out hope that filling out surveys or shitposting through it might turn this ship around, no. That much money has an event horizon.

Mozilla is cooked.
